Simple library for reading and creating GPX files written in PHP.
License: MIT License
Languages: PHP
Simple library written in PHP for reading and creating GPX files. Documentation is available using GitHub pages generated by Jekyll.
Contribution and feedback is welcome! Please check the issues for TODO. I will be happy every feature or pull request.
Repository branches:
master
: latest stable versiondevelop
: works on 2.x
You can easily install phpGPX library with composer. There is no stable release yet, so please use release candidates.
composer require sibyx/phpgpx:1.3.0
<?php
use phpGPX\phpGPX;
$gpx = new phpGPX();
$file = $gpx->load('example.gpx');
foreach ($file->tracks as $track)
{
// Statistics for whole track
$track->stats->toArray();
foreach ($track->segments as $segment)
{
// Statistics for segment of track
$segment->stats->toArray();
}
}
<?php
use phpGPX\phpGPX;
$gpx = new phpGPX();

// XML
$file->save('output.gpx', phpGPX::XML_FORMAT);
//JSON

Currently, supported output formats:
Use the static constants in phpGPX to modify behaviour.
