Author message:

Turf packages are now namespaced: please use @turf/line-slice instead

turf-line-slice

lineSlice

Takes a line, a start Point, and a stop point and returns a subsection of the line in-between those points. The start & stop points don't need to fall exactly on the line.

This can be useful for extracting only the part of a route between waypoints.

Parameters

• point1 Feature<Point> starting point
• point2 Feature<Point> stopping point
• line (Feature<LineString> | LineString) line to slice

Examples

var line = {
  "type": "Feature",
  "properties": {},
  "geometry": {
    "type": "LineString",
    "coordinates": [
      [-77.031669, 38.878605],
      [-77.029609, 38.881946],
      [-77.020339, 38.884084],
      [-77.025661, 38.885821],
      [-77.021884, 38.889563],
      [-77.019824, 38.892368]
    ]
  }
};
var start = {
  "type": "Feature",
  "properties": {},
  "geometry": {
    "type": "Point",
    "coordinates": [-77.029609, 38.881946]
  }
};
var stop = {
  "type": "Feature",
  "properties": {},
  "geometry": {
    "type": "Point",
    "coordinates": [-77.021884, 38.889563]
  }
};
 
var sliced = turf.lineSlice(start, stop, line);
 
//=line
 
//=sliced

Returns Feature<LineString> sliced line
