# oxidized-rasterstats

Rust-accelerated, GDAL-backed implementation of `rasterstats` with drop-in Python API compatibility.

## Status

- Import path compatibility: `from rasterstats import zonal_stats, point_query`
- Build/packaging flow: `maturin`
- Rust fast paths: zonal stats + point query
- Python fallback: upstream-compatible behavior preserved
- Non-overlap `nodata` semantics: matches upstream `python-rasterstats` boundless footprint behavior
- Rust dispatch exceptions are logged before fallback so backend failures are visible in operations logs

## Quick Start

```bash
python -m venv .venv
. .venv/bin/activate
pip install -U pip
pip install -e ".[test,perf]"
pip install maturin

python scripts/sync_upstream.py \
  --repo /workdir/python-rasterstats \
  --sha e51b48a62e3ac7e4ef4a81a8c2a8e5b90fa5e8ac

maturin develop --release
```

## Dispatch Model

- Default mode enables Rust fast-path for eligible `zonal_stats` and `point_query` calls.
- Set `OXRS_DISABLE_RUST=1` to force Python fallback behavior.
- Fast path auto-falls back to Python for unsupported dynamic cases.

Examples:

```bash
# Default mode (zonal fast path active when eligible)
PYTHONPATH=python python -c "from rasterstats import zonal_stats; print(callable(zonal_stats))"

# Force Python fallback for both APIs
PYTHONPATH=python OXRS_DISABLE_RUST=1 python -c "from rasterstats import point_query; print(point_query('POINT(245309 1000064)','tests/upstream/data/slope.tif')[0])"

# Explicit Rust-on flag is optional (kept for compatibility)
PYTHONPATH=python OXRS_ENABLE_RUST=1 python -c "from rasterstats import zonal_stats; print(zonal_stats('tests/upstream/data/polygons.shp','tests/upstream/data/slope.tif')[0])"
```

## Build and Test Commands

```bash
# Parity + API compatibility
PYTHONPATH=python pytest tests/upstream tests/compat -q

# Rust unit tests
cargo test --all

# Regression denylist
PYTHONPATH=python pytest tests/regression -q

# Forced Python fallback sweep
PYTHONPATH=python OXRS_DISABLE_RUST=1 pytest tests/upstream tests/compat -q

# Performance suites
PYTHONPATH=python pytest tests/perf -q -m perf_small --benchmark-only --benchmark-min-rounds=5
PYTHONPATH=python pytest tests/perf -q -m perf_large --benchmark-only --benchmark-min-rounds=5
```

## PyPI Release Workflow

- Tag a release commit with `v*` (for example `v0.1.0`) and push the tag.
- GitHub workflow `.github/workflows/release-wheels.yml` builds:
  - Linux wheels for CPython 3.9-3.12
  - source distribution (`sdist`)
- Publish job uses PyPI Trusted Publishing with `environment: pypi`.
