## How to install

### Pre-compiled binaries

You can download a pre-compiled executable for Linux, MacOS and Windows
operating systems from the
[release page](https://github.com/HydroniumLabs/h3o-cli/releases/), then you
should copy that executable to a location from your `$PATH` env.

### Build Manually

If you prefer to build `h3o-cli` manually, or a pre-compiled executable is not
provided for your platform, then you can build `h3o-cli` from the source:

- [Install Rust]https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install
- Run `cargo install h3o-cli`

## Usage

Each subcommand comes with its own help through `-h/--help`.

There are two classes of output format for the commands:
- text format (text and JSON)
- geo format (KML and GeoJSON)

Most of the commands can either take a single input from the CLI options or a
list of input from `stdin`.

Plain text output can be directly used as input for others, allowing command
pipelines.

For geo output:
- `cellToLatLng` returns the center (`Point`) of each index
- `cellToBoundary` returns the outline (`LineString`) of each index
- `cellToPolygon` returns the shape (`Polygon`) of contiguous indexes.

## Examples

Prints information (coordinates, area, …) about on given cell:
```text
h3o-cli cellInfo -i 844c001ffffffff
```

Decodes an index into its components:
```text
h3o-cli indexDecode -i 21b1fb4644920fff --pretty
```

Creates a GeoJSON file containing the cell center points of all of the
resolution 9 hexagons covering Uber HQ and the surrounding region of San
Francisco.
```text
h3o-cli cellToChildren --parent 86283082fffffff --resolution 9 \
    | h3o-cli cellToLatLng -f geojson > uber9pts.geojson
```

Generates the set of indexes that cover Paris at resolution 11 and save the
compacted result in `cells.txt`.
```text
h3o-cli geomToCells -r 11 -f geojson < paris.geojson | h3o-cli compact > cells.txt
```

Prints the indexes from the 2-ring around `89283082ed7ffff`.
```text
h3o-cli gridDisk -o 89283082ed7ffff -r 2
```

At resolution 7, prints the grid path that goes through a bunch of French cities
and return the resulting KML.
```text
h3o-cli latLngToCell -r 7 < cities-center.txt \
    | h3o-cli gridPath \
    | h3o-cli cellToBoundary -f kml
```

Load the shape of a city, compute the cell coverage at resolution 11 and save
the compressed result in `city.cht`:
```text
h3o-cli geomToCells -r 11 < city.geojson \
    | h3o-cli compact \
    | h3o-cli compress > city.cht
```
