SharpAstrology.SwissEph.Linux-x86 0.1.0-alpha.5

SharpAstrology.SwissEph - Ephemerides for SharpAstrology

About

This package provides an implementation of the IEphemerides interface from SharpAstrology.Base. It uses the SwissEphNet project, which provides bindings for the C-library swisseph.

Install

dotnet add package SharpAstrology.SwissEph.Linux-x86

Simple usage

using System.Text.Json;
using SharpAstrology.Enums;
using SharpAstrology.Ephemerides;
using SharpAstrology.Interfaces;

Use swiss eph files or JPL files for more precision

Follow the instruction from the original swisseph project and download the files you want. Than save to files into a folder and use the path to that folder in the SwissEphemeridesService constructor.

using SharpAstrology.Ephemerides;
using SharpAstrology.Interfaces;

SwissEphemeridesService ephemeridesService;
IEphemerides eph;

// for swiss eph files
ephemeridesService = new SwissEphemeridesService(rootPathToEph: "[PATH_TO_SWISSEPH_ROOT_FOLDER]", EphType.Swiss);
eph = ephemeridesService.CreateContext();

// for JPL files
ephemeridesService = new SwissEphemeridesService(rootPathToEph: "[PATH_TO_JPL_ROOT_FOLDER]", EphType.Jpl);
eph = ephemeridesService.CreateContext();
