Extract images from Strava routes URLs

Strava::Route::Images

Extract route and altimetry images from a Strava URL.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'strava-route-images'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install strava-route-images

Usage

Like

extractor = Strava::Route::Images.new('https://www.strava.com/routes/16026750')
extractor.extract

will return a hash with the images:

{
   :base      => "/tmp/strava-base20181210-27554-1lsiexj.png", 
   :route     => "/tmp/strava-route20181210-27554-tjeu61.png", 
   :altimetry => "/tmp/strava-altimetry20181210-27554-1lqirce.png"
}

or specifying the file names:

extractor = Strava::Route::Images.new('https://www.strava.com/routes/16026750', 
                                      base: '/tmp/base.png',
                                      route: '/tmp/route.png',
                                      altimetry: '/tmp/altimetry.png'
                                     )

will return

{
   :base      => "/tmp/base.png", 
   :route     => "/tmp/route.png", 
   :altimetry => "/tmp/altimetry.png"
}

It's advised to run this on a background job, because extrating the screenshot may be a slow and expensive job.

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake test to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
