Crate geonative_shapefile 

geonative-shapefile

Pure-Rust reader for the Esri Shapefile family (.shp + .shx + .dbf

• optional .prj / .cpg). No GDAL, no shapelib.

What v0.1 covers

• 2D shape types: Null, Point, Polyline, Polygon, MultiPoint
• DBF field types: C (char), N (numeric), F (float), D (date), L (logical); other DBF types come through as Value::String or Null
• Ring orientation flipped from Shapefile (CW outer / CCW hole) to OGC (CCW outer / CW hole) so polygons match the rest of the geonative IR
• .shp is mmapped for bounded RAM usage on multi-GB inputs; .shx + .dbf are read into Vecs (small)

v0.1 scope cuts

• Z/M variants (PointZ, PolygonZ, MultipointZ, etc.) return Unsupported
• MultiPatch (type 31) — surface-class geometry; defer
• Non-UTF-8 codepages (.cpg / LDID full table) — defer; v0.1 treats string bytes as UTF-8 with replacement for invalid sequences
• .qix / .sbn spatial index files — ignored
• Sparse / corrupt-.shx repair — error rather than auto-rebuild

Usage

let shp = geonative_shapefile::Shapefile::open("roads.shp")?;
println!("{} features, schema: {:?}", shp.feature_count(), shp.schema());
for f in shp.read() {
    let f = f?;
    // f.fid, f.geometry, f.attributes
}

Modules

bytes

Mixed-endianness byte primitives for the Esri Shapefile format.

dataset

Top-level public API: Shapefile, feature iterator.

dbf

dBASE III+/IV table reader for .dbf attribute sidecars.

error

Driver-specific error type for shapefile reading.

header

The 100-byte file header shared by .shp and .shx.

shape

Decode an individual shape record into a geonative_core::Geometry.

shx

.shx random-access index for the companion .shp.

Functions

open

Convenience: open a .shp (or any file in the shapefile triad) and produce a Shapefile handle.
