Polylabel_Cmd

…is the command-line version of Polylabel. Install it using cargo install polylabel_cmd.
This gives you the polylabel command.

Use

Polylabel takes one mandatory argument: a path to a valid GeoJSON file, containing any 1 of:

• a FeatureCollection containing Features which are valid Polygons or MultiPolygons
• a Feature containing a valid Polygon or MultiPolygon
• a Geometry which is a valid Polygon or MultiPolygon.

Any non-(Multi)Polygon content is ignored.

It also accepts an optional -t or --tolerance switch, allowing you to fine-tune the tolerance from the default 0.001. Smaller tolerances take longer to calculate.

Irrespective of input, successful output is a GeoJSON FeatureCollection. Its contents depend on the input geometry:

• Polygon: The FeatureCollection contains Point Features
• MultiPolygon: The FeatureCollection contains MultiPoint Features

Output features retain the order of input features / geometries, and properties are mapped from input features to output features where they exist.

Validity

Input geometries are not validated. Results from invalid input geometries may be incorrect.

Speed

Polylabel is fast. Polygons are processed in parallel, using Rayon.

Binaries

Will be available when I set up CI.
