# LensProtocol

A Ruby parser and builder for the OMA protocol (a.k.a. Data Communication Standard) that was developed by the Lens Processing & Technology Division of The Vision Council for interconnection of optical laboratory equipment.

Furthermore, it allows you to generate a SVG representation of the tracing datasets.

[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/eeng/lens_protocol.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/eeng/lens_protocol)

## Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

```ruby
gem 'lens_protocol'
```

And then execute:

    $ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

    $ gem install lens_protocol

## Usage

### Parsing an OMA file

```ruby
require 'lens_protocol'
message = LensProtocol::OMA.parse(File.read('examples/oma/R360_1.oma'))
message.values_of('SPH') # => [1.25, -0.5]
```

### Generating the tracing data SVG

The `message.to_svg` method returns an array of SVG strings, one for each side, which can be used directly in an ERB template, like this:

```html
<div class="lenses-container">
  <% message.to_svg.map do |svg| %>
    <div class="lens">
      <%= svg %>
    </div>
  <% end %>
</div>
```

And it should look like this:

## Development

After checking out the repo, run `bin/setup` to install dependencies. Then, run `rake spec` or `guard` to run the tests. You can also run `bin/console` for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

There's also a Sinatra app which allows you visualize the generated SVG. To start the server do `bundle exec ruby examples/svg.rb` and go to `http://localhost:4567/`

To install this gem onto your local machine, run `bundle exec rake install`. To release a new version, update the version number in `version.rb`, and then run `bundle exec rake release`, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the `.gem` file to [rubygems.org](https://rubygems.org).
