haroldship/openstreetmap-tiles-docker repository overview

⁠OpenStreetMap Tile Server Container

based on homme/openstreetmap-tiles-docker source at https://github.com/haroldship/openstreetmap-tiles-docker⁠

This repository contains instructions for building a Docker⁠ image containing the OpenStreetMap tile serving software stack. It is based on the Switch2OSM instructions⁠.

The tiles are styled using OSM Bright⁠.

As well as providing an easy way to set up and run the tile serving software it also provides instructions for managing the back end database, allowing you to:

• Create the database
• Import OSM data into the database
• Drop the database

Run docker run haroldship/openstreetmap-tiles-docker for usage instructions.

⁠About

The container runs Ubuntu 14.04 (Trusty) and is based on the phusion/baseimage-docker⁠. It includes:

• Postgresql 9.3
• Apache 2.2
• Osm2pgsql⁠ from Oct 22 (24e4d4bf273aaf3572fda11d2c0b32aa3156f84a)
• The latest Mapnik⁠ code (at the time of image creation)
• The latest Mod_Tile⁠ code (at the time of image creation)
• The latest OSM Bright⁠ code (at the the time of image creation)

⁠Issues

This is a work in progress and although generally adequate it could benefit from improvements. Please submit issues⁠ on GitHub. Pull requests are very welcome!

⁠Getting Started

These instructions are for linux only, and assume that Docker is up and running.

1. Make a working directory.

    mkdir osm
    cd osm
   

   Copy

2. Make a directory to contain the import file.

    mkdir import
    cd import
   

   Copy

3. Download the import file. You can use any OSM PBF file, but it is important to name it import.pbf.

    curl -o import.pbf http://download.geofabrik.de/asia/israel-and-palestine-latest.osm.pbf
   

   Copy

4. Move back to working directory.

    cd ..
   

   Copy

5. Run the image, with help.

    docker run -it haroldship/openstreetmap-tiles-docker help
   

   Copy

6. If everything goes well, then there are 3 steps:

   • Initial setup, which includes creating the database and user
   • Importing
   • Running

7. Initialize: It is important to get the path to the PostgreSQL data directory correct.

    mkdir data
    docker run -v $PWD/data:/var/lib/postgresql \
    -it haroldship/openstreetmap-tiles-docker \
    initdb startdb createuser createdb
   

   Copy

8. Import: It is important to get the path to the import directory correct. This step can take a long time, depending on how large a database you are importing.

    docker run -v $PWD/import:/data -v $PWD/data:/var/lib/postgresql \
    -it haroldship/openstreetmap-tiles-docker startdb import
   

   Copy

9. Start the services.

     docker run -v $PWD/data:/var/lib/postgresql \
    -d -P haroldship/openstreetmap-tiles-docker startdb startservices
   

   Copy
