geohash-coordinates

Find the geohashing coordinates for a day and location.

I use this for xkcd Geohashing.

Install

npm install geohash-coordinates

Usage

import geohash from 'geohash-coordinates'
 
geohash.graticule({
  date: '2015-03-27',
  location: '34.123,-111.456'
}, (err, result) => {
  console.log(result) // [ 34.520364031734495, -111.75641517793687 ]
})
 
geohash.global({
  date: '2008-09-10'
}, (err, result) => {
  console.log(result) // [ -42.426807304339135, -15.618631484260248 ]
})
 
geohash.all({
  date: '2008-09-10',
  location: '34.123,-111.456'
}, (err, result) => {
  console.log(result.graticule) // [ 34.380395695429435, -111.6951528305385 ]
  console.log(result.global)    // [ -42.426807304339135, -15.618631484260248 ]
})
 
geohash.latest({
  date: '2015-05-05', // Defaults to today
  days: 4 // Defaults to 4,
  location: '34.123,-111.456'
}, (err, results) => {
    // Results will be an array of results from `geohash.all` up to any date
    // that does not have Dow Jones opening data yet. So this is safe to call
    // on any date for any number of future dates.
    // It is designed so that by default it can be called on a Friday
    // and it will return the weekend (and the possible Monday holiday).
})

API

geohash.all(options, cb(err, result))

geohash.graticule(options, cb(err, result))

geohash.global(options, cb(err, result))

options.date (required, string or date)

The date of the geohash coordinates that you want. You can pass in a date string or a date object, moment will be used to format the date as YYYY-MM-DD.

options.location (required, string or array or object)

The coordinates within the graticule that you want the geohash within. Can be in the format "latitude,longitude", [latitude, longitude], or {latitude, longitude}. This is not required fro the global hash.

options.cache (optional, default is no cache)

You also have the option to cache the result of the Dow request to disk. Any subsequent requests for the date will return the cached value. This value takes a path as a string for the directory where you want to cache the values.
