Port of topojson, originally ported by @calvinmetcalf, licensed under the same BSD license as the original.
Installation:
pip install git+https://github.com/osgn/python-topojson.git
Current usage:
input can be a file-like object, a path to a file, or a dict, output can be a path or a file-like object, if omitted a dict is returned
current tested options are quantization and simplify.
from topojson import topojson
#give it a path in and out
topojson(inPath,outPath, quantization=1e6, simplify=0.0001)can also go the other way.
from topojson import geojson
geojson(topojson,input_name=None,out_geojson=None)topojson may be a dict, a path, or a file like object, input_name is a string and if omited
the first object in topojson.objects is used, geojson may be a file like object or
a path if omitied the dict is returned
known issues:
- coding style only a mother could love
- holds everything in memory, this could be bad
- should be able to incrementally add features to a topojson object
