Rugreefer

Rugreefer is a Dart library for retrieving metadata about geographic coordinates from a dopecarpet server. It converts coordinates into a geohash, fetches a gzipped GeoJSON file from the API, and extracts relevant spatial data such as polygons and lines. The library also supports caching with optional expiration to improve performance.

Features

• Converts latitude/longitude to geohash (precision: 4 characters)
• Fetches GeoJSON files from a remote API
• Extracts relevant metadata from polygons and lines
• Supports caching for performance optimization
• Optional cache expiration (default: 14 days)
• Works in Flutter (mobile, desktop, web)

Installation

Add rugreefer to your pubspec.yaml:

dependencies:
  rugreefer:
    git:
      url: https://github.com/TheRandonauts/rugreefer.git

Then, run:

flutter pub get

Usage

Basic Example

import 'package:rugreefer/rugreefer.dart';

void main() async {
  final lookup = RugReefer(
    apiUrl: 'http://localhost:8000/get_geodata/?format=geojson&geohash=',
    enableCacheExpiration: true,
  );

  final results = await lookup.lookup(30.5735040, 34.453125);
  print(results);
}

Custom Cache Settings

final lookup = RugReefer(
  apiUrl: 'http://your-api.com/get_geodata/?format=geojson&geohash=',
  enableCacheExpiration: true,
  cacheExpirationDuration: Duration(days: 7),
);
