Detailed Description

template<typename MapT, typename CoordinateT = Coordinate<float>>
class tinyrobotics::PathMapSerializer< MapT, CoordinateT >

Utility class for serializing and deserializing path maps (sequences of segments) in CSV format.

The PathMapSerializer class provides methods to write a path map (a sequence of segments, each with a 'from' and 'to' coordinate, a cost, and a directed flag) to a Print object (such as Serial) and to read a path map from a Stream object. It is designed to work with map types that provide:

• size(), operator[](size_t), and addSegment(from, to, cost, directed)
• Each segment must have 'from' and 'to' members of type CoordinateT, plus 'cost' (double/float) and 'directed' (bool)

The serialization format is:

• One line per segment: "<from.x>,<from.y>,<to.x>,<to.y>,<cost>,<directed>" (CSV)
  • <cost> is a floating-point value, <directed> is 0 (false) or 1 (true)
  • If <cost> and <directed> are missing, defaults are used (cost=1.0, directed=false)

This format is compatible with external tools and spreadsheets for easy inspection and editing.

Example: 0,0,1,1,2.5,1 1,1,2,2,1.0,0 ...

Template Parameters

MapT	The map type to serialize/deserialize (must support segment access and addSegment)
CoordinateT	The coordinate type for segment endpoints (e.g., Coordinate<float>)
