gpxload

signalk-gpx-plugin

SignalK Plugin and WebApp to enable the GPX file import / export.

Selected resources in GPX files can be loaded using the Web UI that is accessed via the url: http://signalk-server/gpxload/

Once loaded, the imported routes, waypoints and tracks are made available via the SignalK server http api http://signalk-server/signalk/v1/api/resources/.

Use and Operation:

To Import a GPX file:

1. Open the Web App at the url: http:///gpxload/

2. Select the Import GPX tab and click Open GPX file

3. Select a GPX file.

4. Select some or all of the Routes, Waypoints and Tracks from the displayed list.

5. To import just selected resources of a particular type click the Load button located within that resources group. To import all selected resources click Load Selected

To Export resources to a GPX file:

1. Open the Web App at the url: http://signalk-server/gpxload/

2. Select the Export to GPX tab and a list of available resources are displayed. Click Refresh if you want to re-load the list of resources from the Signal K server.

3. Select the Routes, Waypoints and Tracks from the displayed list that you want saved to the GPX file.

4. Click Save to export selected resources to file.

*Note:

• GPXLoad preserves the uuids of resources exported from Signal K server in the GPX file, so if these GPX files are re-imported they will update the corresponding resource on the Signal K server rather than create a new resource.

• GPX files containing elements without Signal K UUID values will have UUIDs assigned each time the file is opened (or re-opened) in the WebUI. This will result in duplicate resources on the Signal K server if a GPX file is: opened, resources imported, re-opened and the same resources imported.
