gpx-builder

GPX builder

This library creates GPX files based on version 1.1. I recommend you to check full documentation on topografix. Library have also option to use Garmin extensions so you can add cadence, heart rate, speed and other data to your points.

How to use

Install:

npm install gpx-builder

Create your first GPX file:

const { buildGPX, GarminBuilder } = require('gpx-builder');

const { Point } = GarminBuilder.MODELS;

const points = [
    new Point(51.02832496166229, 15.515156626701355, {
        ele: 314.715,
        time: new Date('2018-06-10T17:29:35Z'),
        hr: 120,
    }),
    new Point(51.12832496166229, 15.615156626701355, {
        ele: 314.715,
        time: new Date('2018-06-10T17:39:35Z'),
        hr: 121,
    }),
];

const gpxData = new GarminBuilder();

gpxData.setSegmentPoints(points);

console.log(buildGPX(gpxData.toObject()));

You can use Strava format that support power and distance on top of Garmin standard properties.

const { StravaBuilder } = require('gpx-builder');
const { Point } = StravaBuilder.MODELS;

const points = [
    new Point(51.02832496166229, 15.515156626701355, {
        ele: 314.715,
        time: new Date('2018-06-10T17:29:35Z'),
        hr: 120,
        power: 5,
        distance: 1,
    }),
];

How library works

Library contain two types of classes:

• Creators - They create xml string from defined Object structure
• Builders - They offer user friendly way to create data for creators

Library contain two Builders:

• BaseBuilder - To create GPX 1.1 valid files
• GarminBuilder - To use TrackPointExtensionv2 schema from Garmin.
