Installation
------------

[](#installation)

The recommended way to install Geo is through [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/):

```
{
    "require": {
        "black/geo": "@stable"
    }
}
```

**Protip:** You should browse the \[`black/geo`\]( page to choose a stable version to use, avoid the `@stable` meta constraint.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Usage of this class is simple. First, Geo coordinates are based on three values : latitude, longitude and elevation. Elevation is not required and initialised to 0 if arguments are not provided.

There are three ways to create a Geo object:

```
$geo = new Geo\Coordinates(37.42242, -122.08585, 0);
$geo->getCoordinates(); // will return "37.42242,-122.08585,0"
```

```
Geo\Coordinates::fromCoordinatesAsString("37.42242,-122.08585,0")
    ->getLatitude(); // will return "37.42242"
```

```
Geo\Coordinates::fromCoordinatesAsArray([37.42242, -122.08585, 0])
    ->getCoordinates(); // will return "37.42242,-122.08585,0"
```

**Getter**

List of available getters:

- `getLatitude()`
- `getLongitude()`
- `getElevation()`
- `getCoordinates()`
- `getCoordinatesAsArray()`

**Check if two geo are equals**

- `isEqualTo(Geo $geo)`

**Exception**

If you want to pass 1 or less OR 4 or more arguments, a `Geo\Exception\InvalidCoordinatesException()` will be thrown.
