Download the PHP package frostybee/geobee without Composer

On this page you can find all versions of the php package frostybee/geobee. It is possible to download/install these versions without Composer. Possible dependencies are resolved automatically.

FAQ

After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
  • To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
  • Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
  • If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
  • Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

Informations about the package geobee

Geobee

A standalone PHP library for calculating the great-circle distance between geographical coordinates using a spherical Earth model.

Installation

This library requires no dependencies.

To install it:

Units of Lengths

The following are the supported units of lengths along with their respective conversion factors:

Note: Unit symbols are case-insensitive (e.g., 'km', 'KM', 'Km' all work).

Usage

Using this library is simple and straightforward. Just instantiate the Calculator class and supply two pairs of latitude/longitude to the calculate() method as shown below.

Converting the Distance from Meters to other Units

Single Conversion

Use the to() method as show below. However, you must call the calculate() method once before doing any conversions.

You can also specify precision and rounding behavior:

Parameters for to() method:

Batch Conversions

Convert the distance to multiple units efficiently:

Coordinate Validation

The library provides a public method to validate latitude/longitude coordinates before performing calculations.

Using isCoordinate() Method

Coordinate Requirements

Validation Examples

Error Handling

The library throws exceptions for invalid input:

Advanced Usage

Method Chaining

The calculate() method returns the Calculator instance, enabling fluent method chaining:

Edge Cases

Zero Distance (Same Coordinates)

When calculating distance from a point to itself:

Note: toAll() returns an empty array when distance is zero, while to() returns 0.

Precision Control

Control the precision of converted distances:

API Reference

Calculator Class Methods

Method Parameters Return Type Description
calculate() float $from_lat, float $from_lon, float $to_lat, float $to_lon self Calculates distance between two coordinates. Returns $this for chaining.
getDistance() None float Returns the calculated distance in meters.
to() string $unit, ?int $decimals = null, bool $round = true float\|int Converts distance to specified unit.
toMany() array $units = [], ?int $decimals = null, bool $round = true array Converts distance to multiple units. Returns associative array.
toAll() ?int $decimals = null, bool $round = true array Converts distance to all supported units. Returns associative array.
isCoordinate() mixed $latitude, mixed $longitude bool Validates a coordinate pair. Returns true if valid.
