Gpx Track Generator

Build Status Gem Version

This gem creates a single gpx track from all given gpx-files. Those files can contain route- or track-points. This might be handy if you've got single gpx-files for each part of a long distance walk, but don't want to litter your gps-device.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'gpx_track_generator'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install gpx_track_generator

Usage

Introduction

The order of the gpx files which should be used by gpx_track_generator is important. The script iterates over all files and concatenates the found nodes one after another.

Example:

file1.gpx => Part 1 of walk
file2.gpx => Part 2 of walk
file3.gpx => Part 3 of Walk

CLI

gpx_track file1.gpx file2.gpx file3.gpx

Ruby

input_files = %w(file1.gpx file2.gpx file3.gpx)
track_name  = 'Track ABC'
output_file = 'my_track.gpx'

GpxTrackGenerator::Api.generate(
  input_files: input_files,
  track_name: track_name,
  output_file: output_file
)

Ruby

Create your track file from ruby code. This can be helpful in your Rakefile.

Create track file

input_files = %w(track1.gpx route2.gpx)
track_name  = 'Track ABC'
output_file = 'my_track.gpx'

GpxTrackGenerator::Api.generate(
  input_files: input_files,
  track_name: track_name,
  output_file: output_file
)

Reverse track

input_files = %w(track1.gpx route2.gpx)
track_name  = 'Track ABC'
output_file = 'my_track.gpx'

GpxTrackGenerator::Api.generate(
  input_files: input_files,
  track_name: track_name,
  output_file: output_file,
  reverse: true
)

*Single segment per Track*

```ruby
input_files = %w(track1.gpx route2.gpx)
track_name  = 'Track ABC'
output_file = 'my_track.gpx'

GpxTrackGenerator::Api.generate(
  input_files: input_files,
  track_name: track_name,
  output_file: output_file,
  single_segment: true
)

CLI

Create track file

gpx_track *.gpx

Define track name

gpx_track --name "Track Name" *.gpx

Reverse track

gpx_track --reverse *.gpx

Single Segment for the whole track

gpx_track --single-segment *.gpx
