Hi,
in subversion path util/osm-data/lib is a new library for easier handling
with the osm data objects. I extracted this from little-osm.
It is currently used in little-osm, the testserver.rb script and
planet2mysql.rb
To use it, include the util/osm-data/lib directory to your include path
and then require "osm/data" or "osm/rexml" (if you want to/from XML
support). Look for one of the scripts mentioned above for an example.
Some examples:
node = Node.new :id => 23, :lat => 51, :lon => 11, :timestamp => Time.now
puts node.to_xml # prints: <node id='23' lat='51' lon='11' />
puts node.to_uid # prints an id, that is unique among all osm
# primitives, not only all nodes
node["name"] = "Baker Street" # access to tags via []
puts node.timestamp # prints the creation time
Documentation can be generated by calling to "rdoc" within the osm-data
subdirectory.
Ciao, Imi
