A simple kd-tree in Python [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/stefankoegl/kdtree.png?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/stefankoegl/kdtree)
==========================

The kdtree package can construct, modify and search
[kd-trees](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kd-tree).

Usage
-----

>>> import kdtree

# Create an empty tree by specifying the number of
# dimensions its points will have
>>> emptyTree = kdtree.create(dimensions=3)

# A kd-tree can contain different kinds of points, for example tuples
>>> point1 = (2, 3, 4)

# Lists can also be used as points
>>> point2 = [4, 5, 6]

# Other objects that support indexing can be used, too
>>> import collections
>>> Point = collections.namedtuple('Point', 'x y z')
>>> point3 = Point(5, 3, 2)

# A tree is created from a list of points
>>> tree = kdtree.create([point1, point2, point3])

# Each (sub)tree is represented by its root node
>>> tree

# Adds a tuple to the tree
>>> tree.add( (5, 4, 3) )

# Removes the previously added point and returns the new root
>>> tree = tree.remove( (5, 4, 3) )

# Retrieving the Tree in inorder
>>> list(tree.inorder())
[, , ]

# Retrieving the Tree in level order
>>> list(kdtree.level_order(tree))
[, , ]

# Find the nearest node to the location (1, 2, 3)
>>> tree.search_nn( (1, 2, 3) )

# Add a point to make the tree more interesting
>>> tree.add( (10, 2, 1) )

# Visualize the Tree
>>> kdtree.visualize(tree)

[4, 5, 6]

(2, 3, 4) Point(x=5, y=3, z=2)

(10, 2, 1)

# Take the right subtree of the root
>>> subtree = tree.right

# and detatch it
>>> tree.right = None
>>> kdtree.visualize(tree)

[4, 5, 6]

(2, 3, 4)

>>> kdtree.visualize(subtree)

Point(x=5, y=3, z=2)

(10, 2, 1)

# and re-attach it
>>> tree.right = subtree
>>> kdtree.visualize(tree)

[4, 5, 6]

(2, 3, 4) Point(x=5, y=3, z=2)

(10, 2, 1)

# Add a node to make the tree unbalanced
>>> tree.is_balanced
True
>>> tree.add( (6, 1, 5) )
>>> tree.is_balanced
False
>>> kdtree.visualize(tree)

[4, 5, 6]

(2, 3, 4) Point(x=5, y=3, z=2)
(10, 2, 1)
(6, 1, 5)
# rebalance the tree
>>> tree = tree.rebalance()
>>> tree.is_balanced
True
>>> kdtree.visualize(tree)

Point(x=5, y=3, z=2)

[4, 5, 6] (6, 1, 5)

(2, 3, 4)

### Adding a payload

Indexing a dict by a pair of floats is not a good idea, since there might be unexpected precision errors.
Since KDTree expects a tuple-looking objects for nodes, you can make a class that looks like a tuple, but
contains more data. This way you can store all your data in a kdtree, without using an additional
indexed structure.

```python
import kdtree

# This class emulates a tuple, but contains a useful payload
class Item(object):
def __init__(self, x, y, data):
self.coords = (x, y)
self.data = data

def __len__(self):
return len(self.coords)

def __getitem__(self, i):
return self.coords[i]

def __repr__(self):
return 'Item({}, {}, {})'.format(self.coords[0], self.coords[1], self.data)

# Now we can add Items to the tree, which look like tuples to it
point1 = Item(2, 3, 'First')
point2 = Item(3, 4, 'Second')
point3 = Item(5, 2, ['some', 'list'])

# Again, from a list of points
tree = kdtree.create([point1, point2, point3])

# The root node
print(tree)

# ...contains "data" field with an Item, which contains the payload in "data" field
print(tree.data.data)

# All functions work as intended, a payload is never lost
print(tree.search_nn([1, 2]))
```

Prints:
