shp-write-multi

`origin repository shp-write

Writes shapefile in pure javascript. Uses dbf
for the data component, and jsZIP to generate
ZIP file downloads in-browser.

Usage

For node.js or browserify

npm install --save shp-write-multi
Or in a browser

https://unpkg.com/shp-write-multi@latest/shpwrite.js

Caveats

* Requires a capable fancy modern browser with Typed Arrays
support
* Geometries: Point, LineString, Polygon, MultiLineString, MultiPolygon
* Tabular-style properties export with Shapefile's field name length limit
* Uses jsZip for ZIP files, but compression is buggy so it uses STORE instead of DEFLATE.

Example

`js
const shpwrite = require('shp-write-multi');

// (optional) set names for features and zipped folder
const options = {
folder: 'myshapes',
// output .shp name with geojson's features, default is ['myshpes_POINT_1', 'myshpes_POINT_2']
names: ['test','test1']
}
// a GeoJSON bridge for features
await shpwrite.download({
type: 'FeatureCollection',
features: [
{
type: 'Feature',
geometry: {
type: 'Point',
coordinates: [0, 0]
},
properties: {
name: 'Foo'
}
},
{
type: 'Feature',
geometry: {
type: 'Point',
coordinates: [0, 10]
},
properties: {
name: 'Bar'
}
}
]
}, options);
// triggers a download of a zip file with shapefiles contained within.

API

$3

Given a GeoJSON FeatureCollection as an object,
converts convertible features into Shapefiles and triggers a download.

$3

Given data, an array of objects for each row of data, geometry, the OGC standard
geometry type (like POINT), geometries, a list of geometries as bare coordinate
arrays, generate a shapfile and call the callback with err and an object with

`js
{
shp: DataView(),
shx: DataView(),
dbf: DataView()
}
``

$3

Generate a ArrayBuffer of a zipped shapefile, dbf, and prj, from a GeoJSON
object.
