Compute envelope (bounding box) of geometries

Source: R/sx_envelope.R
sx_envelope.Rd

Compute the envelope (bounding box) of this geometry.

Usage

sx_envelope(x, output = NULL, view_name = NULL, verbosity = NULL, ...)

Arguments

x

Input object (sf, sedonadb_dataframe, or character view name).

output

Character or NULL. Output type: sedonadb_dataframe (default), sf, tibble, geoarrow, or raw. If NULL, uses getOption("sx.output_type", "sedonadb_dataframe").

Output types:

  • sedonadb_dataframe: Lazy data frame (no collection).

  • sf: Materialized sf object.

  • tibble: Tibble without geometry.

  • geoarrow: Tibble with geoarrow_vctr geometry (Arrow-native).

  • raw: Tibble with geometry as raw WKB bytes (for database import).

view_name

Character (optional). Name to register the result as a persistent view in the active backend. If NULL (default), returns the result directly without creating a view.

Not all backends support named views. Check backend-specific documentation for availability.

verbosity

Character or NULL. Controls message output for this function call.

  • "quiet": Suppress all informational messages.

  • "info": Show standard progress and status messages.

  • "debug": Show additional diagnostic messages for troubleshooting.

If NULL (the default), uses the global sx.verbosity option. See sx_options() for persistent configuration.

...

Ignored. Used to catch and warn about unsupported sf arguments.

Value

Result (type depends on output)
