pgRouting Wrapper for point to point dijkstra shortest path routing

[smitadolly]

Hello Sir,

After getting motivation from you to create a wrapper for point to point routing, I have written this wrapper for point to point shortest path routing. There are scope to improve this more and I will work towards the same. For now, I want to contribute this wrapper to your repository so that other people also can make use of this and give feedback on the same.

Thanks and Regards

Smita, Thank you for your work. I did a very quick look through your code and if I understand correctly what you mean by point to point is that you are creating a virtual edge by splitting the start and end edges at the point closest to the start and end points.

This is nice, thanks. I'll take a closer look tomorrow at the code.

One quick comment to simplify the code a lot is the you can use:

execute sql into variable;

rather than:

for variable in execute sql loop end loop;

when you are only returning one row or a single value. It will make the code much more readable.

Thank you for taking the time to make a pull request.
