FAQ
Example:
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 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 geo-distance
Introduction
Calculate the distance between coordinates.
This package uses the UnitAngle and UnitLength classes from
nmarfurt/measurements.
Further, resulting measurements, like distance, are represented by a Measurement.
To make full use of this library, it is recommended to familiarize oneself with
that package first.
Installation
Procedural approach
To use the data models for coordinates and distance calculation in a procedural manner, try the following:
coordinates
The coordinates function accepts:
float $latitudefloat $longitude
Both are a number representing an angle in degrees.
It returns an instance of:
ZeroConfig\GeoDistance\PositionInterface
distance
The distance function accepts:
ZeroConfig\GeoDistance\PositionInterface $startZeroConfig\GeoDistance\PositionInterface $end
Both are positions on a sphere.
It returns an instance of:
Measurements\Measurement
Object oriented approach
The following data models exist:
- Position, combined latitude and longitude
- Sphere, the object on which coordinates are plotted when calculating distance
