Overview

About

Maintained by André LeiteCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗Website ↗Issues ↗

Converts engineering 'DWG' drawings ('AutoCAD' 2013+ format) to 'GeoJSON' entirely in-process, with no 'CAD' software, 'LibreDWG', or 'GDAL' required. Wraps the pure-Rust 'dwg2geo' conversion core https://github.com/milkway/dwg2geo: every feature carries resolved 'CAD' style metadata (layer, colour, line weight, text), skipped and failed entities are reported with reasons, and the output is deterministic: the same bytes always produce byte-identical 'GeoJSON'. Coordinates are kept in the drawing's local system; the package never guesses a coordinate reference system.

Changes in 0.2.4

Fixed installation on CRAN's macOS builders: cargo is invoked with ~/.cargo/bin appended to the PATH, covering rustup installations that are not on the default PATH (0.2.3 failed to install on all four CRAN macOS flavors with "cargo: command not found").
Upgraded the embedded conversion core to dwg2geo 0.2.3, which adds six entity semantics (curve-fit polylines, dimensions, mlines, multileaders, polyface meshes, model-space attdefs) and geodata reporting.

Install

R (CRAN)pak (dev)Ubuntu (r2u)Fedora (COPR)

install.packages("dwg2geo", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

if (!requireNamespace("pak", quietly = TRUE))
  install.packages("pak", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")
pak::pak("milkway/dwg2geo-r")

Development version from milkway/dwg2geo-r. Installs pak first if it is not already available.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-dwg2geo

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled. We list this channel from recorded r2u download activity rather than from a live index of the repository, so treat it as last known rather than guaranteed.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-dwg2geo

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager
