AwesomeDistanceCalculator

AwesomeDistanceCalculator gem, as its name indicates, it severs the purpose of calculating the distance between two given positions using the haversin formula.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'awesome_distance_calculator'

And then execute:

$ bundle install

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install awesome_distance_calculator

Usage

You could either use in you terminal for easy calculations by:

$ ./bin/console

and then:

Or also by including it in any wrapper/facade calculator class in your application

class MyClass
    include AwesomeDistanceCalculator
end

That will add the .calculatemethod on your newly created class, so you could as follows:

calculator = MyClass.new
calculator.calculate(coordinates: [[53.339428, -6.257664], [52.986375, -6.043701]])
