plpygis
=======
``plpygis`` is a Python tool that can convert a `PostGIS <https://postgis.net/>`_ ``geometry`` into an equivalent WKB, EWKB, GeoJSON or Shapely geometry. ``plpygis`` is intended for use in PostgreSQL `PL/Python <https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/plpython.html>`_ functions.
Basic usage
===========
The ``Geometry`` class and its subclasses can be used to convert to and from PostGIS geometries. The following example will take a PostGIS multipolygon geometry named ``geom`` and find its largest component polygon.
``Geometry()`` can convert a PostGIS ``geometry`` that has been passed as a parameter to a PL/Python function. A ``Geometry`` that is returned from the PL/Python function will automatically be converted back to a PostGIS ``geometry``.
.. code-block:: postgres
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION largest_poly(geom geometry)
RETURNS geometry
AS $$
from plpygis import Geometry
polygons = Geometry(geom)
if polygons.type == "Polygon":
return polygons
elif polygons.type == "MultiPolygon":
largest = max(polygons.shapely, key=lambda polygon: polygon.area)
return Geometry.from_shapely(largest)
else:
return None
$$ LANGUAGE plpython3u;
This can then be called as part of an SQL query:
.. code-block:: postgres
SELECT largest_poly(geom) FROM countries;
