Requires-Dist: gps3

**Installation**

``[sudo [-H]] pip[2|3] install gps3``

For example, ``sudo -H pip3 install gps3`` for your default P3 installation.
``sudo pip2 install gps3`` for Python 2.7.

**gps3.py** will install at ``/usr/local/lib/python[3.5]/dist-packages/gps3/gps3.py``

gps3.py is a Python 2.7-3.5 GPSD interface (http://www.catb.org/gpsd) and
defaults to host='127.0.0.1', port=2947, gpsd_protocol='json' in two classes.

1) **GPSDSocket** creates a GPSD socket connection & request/retrieve GPSD output.

2) **DataStream** unpacks the streamed gpsd data into python dictionaries.

These dictionaries are literated from the JSON data packet sent from the GPSD.

.. code-block::

    from gps3 import gps3
    gps_socket = gps3.GPSDSocket()
    data_stream = gps3.DataStream()
    gps_socket.connect()
    gps_socket.watch()
    for new_data in gps_socket:
        if new_data:
            data_stream.unpack(new_data)
            print('Altitude = ', data_stream.TPV['alt'])
            print('Latitude = ', data_stream.TPV['lat'])

Consult Lines 147-ff for Attribute/Key possibilities.
or http://www.catb.org/gpsd/gpsd_json.html

**agps3.py** is installed at ``/usr/local/lib/python[3.5]/dist-packages/gps3/agps3.py``

It is functionally similar to gps.py, but literates object attributes rather than Python dictionaries.

agps3.py is also a Python 2.7-3.5 GPSD interface (http://www.catb.org/gpsd) and
defaults to host='127.0.0.1', port=2947, gpsd_protocol='json' in two classes.

1) **GPSDSocket** creates a GPSD socket connection & request/retrieve GPSD output.
2) **DataStream** unpacks the streamed gpsd data into object attribute values.

.. code-block::

    from gps3 import agps3
    gps_socket = agps3.GPSDSocket()
    data_stream = agps3.DataStream()
    gps_socket.connect()
    gps_socket.watch()
    for new_data in gps_socket:
        if new_data:
            data_stream.unpack(new_data)
            print('Altitude = ', data_stream.alt)
            print('Latitude = ', data_stream.lat)

Consult Lines 140-ff for Attribute-value possibilities.

For a human experience, both versions have trivial showcase scripts, located at

``/usr/local/share/gps3/examples/``

**agpsthreaded.py** is agps3 *prethreaded* as a default daemon thread with all data exposed as attributes of the threaded data stream.

.. code-block::

    from gps3.agps3threaded import AGPS3mechanism
    agps_thread = AGPS3mechanism()  # Instantiate AGPS3 Mechanisms
    agps_thread.stream_data()  # From localhost (), or other hosts, by example, (host='gps.ddns.net')
    agps_thread.run_thread()  # Throttle time to sleep after an empty lookup, default '()' 0.2 two tenths of a second

    while True:  # All data is available via instantiated thread data stream attribute.
        # line #140-ff of /usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/gps3/agps.py
        print('---------------------')
        print(                   agps_thread.data_stream.time)
        print('Lat:{}   '.format(agps_thread.data_stream.lat))
        print('Lon:{}   '.format(agps_thread.data_stream.lon))
        print('Speed:{} '.format(agps_thread.data_stream.speed))
        print('Course:{}'.format(agps_thread.data_stream.track))
        print('---------------------')
        sleep(60) # Sleep, or do other things for as long as you like.


**human.py** showcases gps3.py, **ahuman.py** showcases agps3.py

``python[X] /usr/local/share/gps3/examples/[a]human.py [-host] [-port]`` or ``--help``   for list of commandline options.

Toggle Lat/Lon form with '**0**', '**1**', '**2**', '**3**' for RAW, DDD, DMM, DMS

Toggle units with  '**0**', '**m**', '**i**', '**n**', for 'raw', Metric, Imperial, Nautical

Toggle between JSON and NMEA outputs with '**j**' and '**a**' respectively.

Refresh the display of device information with '**d**' to see the return after issuing ``gps3.misc.hertz(5)`` to change capable gps devices to 5Hz

Quit with '**q**' or '**^c**'


Likewise, both versions have trivial applications [**a**] **gegps3.py** that creates a 'live' kml file(s) for Google Earth.

``python[X] /usr/local/share/gps3/examples/[a]gegps3.py`` (defaults)

Scant documentation is in the respective file.

**Un-installation**

``[sudo -H] pip[2|3] uninstall gps3``

For example, ``sudo -H pip3 uninstall gps3`` for P3 installation.
Likewise, for Python 2.7 ``sudo pip2 uninstall gps3``

**Problems with installation**

Un-install using the method above and ``y`` to delete the old files, then

``sudo -H pip[2|3] install --ignore-installed gps3``

This will bypass the cached version and fetch the most recent *typo-free* version.

Comments are always appreciated.
