Can you elaborate on this requirement? If you’re using a PostGIS datastructure, why would you not use a PostGIS function? Is this some sort of school assignment?

You might be able to use sum of haversine distance between the end points of each segment in the string, if the geometry is projected over earth.

This seems to handle pairs of points - GitHub - yltsrc/geocalc: Geographic calculations for Elixir · GitHub . Probably need extract out the line segment using the geo library first.
