# Docker-OSM

A docker compose project to setup an OSM PostGIS database with automatic

updates from OSM periodically.

The only files you need is a PBF file, geojson (if you intend to restrict data download to

a smaller extent than the one specified by the PBF) and run the docker compose project.

## General architecture

![Alt text](/docs/architecture.png?raw=true "Optional Title")

## Quick setup

As a quick example, we are going to setup Docker-OSM with default values everywhere:

* Download a PBF file from http://download.geofabrik.de/

* Put the file in the `settings` folder and rename it `country.pbf`. 

Alternatively you can execute the `settings_downloader.sh` script to download the pbf and the clip file

```bash

bash ./settings_downloader.sh GEOJSON_URL CONTINENT COUNTRY ie

bash ./settings_downloader.sh https://github.com/kartoza/docker-osm/raw/develop/settings/clip.geojson africa south-africa

```

For a full list of allowed file names read json file `countries.json`

Alternatively you can use the python script `pbf_downloader.py`

For local usage, the containers are set up using docker-compose configuration. The configuration files consists of 

two sets of config file. The first one is `.env` which contains lists of environment variables.

Copy the `.env` file from the `.example.env` in this repo.

```bash

cp .example.env .env

```

For subsequent configuration, edit the `.env` files to tweak your options.

The second set of configuration is using a `docker-compose.yml` files, which is a compose files docker-compose is using.

For minimum set of production environment, the configuration file is described in `docker-compose.yml` file.

The other YAML files with prefix `docker-compose` is a configuration file that you can merge with the basic `docker-compose.yml` file. To use more than one configuration file, you edit `.env` file and change the `COMPOSE_FILE` variable to include all 

the compose file you desired, separated by a colon `:` for each file.

For example, by default, the example file is using both `docker-compose.yml` and `docker-compose.develop.yml` because

we expect you to provide the necessary settings in `settings` folder. Thus the `COMPOSE_FILE` variable looks like this:

```

COMPOSE_FILE=docker-compose.yml:docker-compose.develop.yml

```

In production environment, normally all the persistent data is stored in a volume, instead of bind mounted.

In this case only the `docker-compose.yml` is enough, and you need to provide the settings inside the volume itself.

To build the image yourself, include the `docker-compose.build.yml` file.

To use helper services such as pgadmin, include `docker-compose.pgadmin.yml`, and `docker-compose.web.yml` for web demo.

If you are familiar with how docker-compose work, you can also use a standard convention by putting `docker-compose.override.yml`

file and include it in the `COMPOSE_FILE` variable.

To store the configuration for long-term use (for archiving or diffing of different configuration). You can interpolate the 

current variables in `.env` and generate a full config files:

```bash

docker-compose config > docker-compose.production.yml

```

The above command will include and merged all your config files specified in `COMPOSE_FILE` variable and also fill out the 

variables parameterized in the docker-compose file.

* If you want to connect from your local QGIS Desktop:

  * In the file `docker-compose.yml`, uncomment the block:

```yml

# Uncomment to use the postgis database from outside the docker network

ports:

 - "35432:5432"

```

* Do `make run` in the build directory. This will download and execute the docker-osm project. 

It might be very long depending of your bandwidth and the PBF you are importing.

* In QGIS, add a new PostGIS connection: `localhost`, database `gis`, port `35432`, `docker` for both username and password.

* That's it! You have an OSM database, up and running. The update is done every 2 minutes from the main OSM website.

For further reading and customizations, read below.

## Docker cloud

Dockerfiles are executed on [Docker Cloud kartoza/docker-osm](https://cloud.docker.com/swarm/kartoza/repository/docker/kartoza/docker-osm/general)

```bash

docker pull kartoza/docker-osm:imposm-latest

docker pull kartoza/docker-osm:osmupdate-latest

```

To run you can use the provided docker-compose project and use the images

hosted on the internet. This is useful if you want to integrate Docker-OSM in

your existing docker-compose project.

## Usage

### PBF File

In this example we will set up an OSM database for South Africa that 

will pull for updates every 2 minutes.

Specify a PBF file for your area in the environment variables for `osm_downloader` container.

You can download some PBF files on these URLS for instance :

* http://download.geofabrik.de/

* http://download.openstreetmap.fr/extracts/

You must put only one PBF file in the settings folder. Only the last one will be read.

### OSM Features

In `settings`, you can edit the `mapping.yml` to customize the PostGIS schema.

You can find the documentation about the mapping configuration on the imposm

website: https://imposm.org/docs/imposm3/latest/mapping.html

The default file in Docker-OSM is coming from

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/omniscale/imposm3/master/example-mapping.yml

**Note** Imposm is designed for spatial analysis, not for OSM contribution analysis.

If you need such a feature, you need to use another database schema supporting OSM Metadata. 

You can check the [OSM Wiki](https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Databases_and_data_access_APIs#Database_Schemas) for "Lossless" schemas.

### Updates

You can configure the time interval in the docker-compose file. By default,

it's two minutes. If you set the TIME variable to 0, no diff files will be

imported.

The default update stream is worldwide. So even if you imported a local PBF, if

you don't set a clipping area, you will end with data from all over the world.

### Clipping

During the initial import or post update imposm uses the flag `-limito` which allows 

you to define a smaller area that you can work with.  

This is always desirable to limit the features being imported into the database rather 

than clipping them.

**NB:** Ensure you add a geojson covering the area you intend to clip into the `settings` folder.

The geojson can be the same extent of the administrative area for your country, or it can be a 

smaller extent. The CRS of the geojson should always be EPSG:4326.

**NB:** It is encouraged to simplify the geometry for the `clip.geojson` as

a simplified geometry is easier to process during the import. 

Rather use the minimum bounding box for the area you intend to clip your dataset with.

### QGIS project

There is a default QGIS project provided in the `web/` folder, named `osm_mirror_qgis_project.qgz`. To be able to load the layers in this project correctly in QGIS, first run `make materialized_views` and `make  elevation` then set up your connection service file with the following parameters. The host parameter is where you have set up `docker-osm`:

```

[docker-osm]

dbname=gis

port=35432

user=docker

password=docker

host=

sslmode=disable

```

### QGIS Styles

The database is provided with some default styles. These styles will be loaded

automatically when loaded in QGIS. It's following the default OSM mapping from

ImpOSM.

```bash

make import_styles

make remove_styles

make backup_styles

```

### SQL Trigger, functions, views...

You can add PostGIS functions, triggers, materialized views into an SQL file called `post-pbf-import.sql`. 

It will be imported automatically in the database.

### Build and run

Now build the docker images needed to run the application:

```bash

docker-compose build

docker-compose up 

```

In production, you should daemonize the services when bringing them up:

```bash

docker-compose up -d

```

You can check the timestamp of your database by reading the file :

``settings/timestamp.txt`` or you can use : 

```bash

make timestamp

```

### Display

In the makefile, you can switch to another docker compose project.

The other one includes QGIS Server. When it's running, you should be able to

open, on the host(not in docker), the `index.html` file and see OSM and QGIS

Server showing PostGIS tables. The webpage is using Leaflet.

If you want to tweak the QGIS Project, you need to add a host in your in `/etc/hosts`:

```

127.0.0.1       db

```

Because in the docker-compose file, the link is made with the PostGIS database using the alias `db`.

## In the background

### Docker OSM Update

This docker image, when run will regularly fetch any new diff file for all the

changes that have happened in the world over the update interval.

You can also specify a custom url for fetching the diff if you wish to retrieve

regional diffs rather than the global one.

You can specify a polygonal area for the diff so that it will only apply features

from the diff that fall within that area. For example providing a polygon of the

borders of Malawi will result in only Malawi features being extracted from the diff.

**Note:** the diff retrieved and options specified here are not related to the

initial base map used - so for example if your initial base map is for Malawi and

you specify a diff area in Botswana, updated features in Botswana will be applied

to your base map which only includes features from Malawi. For this reason, take

care to ensure that your diff area coincides with the region covered by your

original base map.

Once the diff has been downloaded, it is placed into /home/import_queue where

it will be picked up by the long running imposm3 container, which will apply

the diff to the database.

You should have 3 folders : osm_pbf, import_queue, import_done

Put a state file in base-pbf like this one :

http://download.openstreetmap.fr/extracts/africa/south_africa.state.txt

```bash

docker build -t osmupdate .

docker run -v $('pwd')import-queue/:/home/import-queue -v $('pwd')base-pbf/:/home/base-pbf -v $('pwd')import-done/:/home/import-done -d osmupdate

```

With -e, you can add some settings :

```bash

 - MAX_DAYS = 100, the maximum time range to assemble a cumulated changefile.

 - DIFF = sporadic, osmupdate uses a combination of minutely, hourly and daily changefiles. This value can be minute, hour, day or sporadic.

 - MAX_MERGE = 7, argument to determine the maximum number of parallely processed changefiles.

 - COMPRESSION_LEVEL = 1, define level for gzip compression. values between 1 (low compression but fast) and 9 (high compression but slow)

 - BASE_URL = http://planet.openstreetmap.org/replication/, change the URL to use a custom URL to fetch regional file updates.

 - IMPORT_QUEUE = import_queue

 - IMPORT_DONE = import_done

 - OSM_PBF = osm_pbf

 - TIME = 120, seconds between two executions of the script

```

If you are using docker-compose, you can use these settings within the 

```docker-compose.yml``` file.

### Docker ImpOSM3

This image will take care of doing the initial load for the selected region

(e.g. planet, or a country such as Malawi) into your database. It will then

apply, at a regular interval (default is 2 minutes), any diff that arrives

in the /home/import_queue folder to the postgis OSM database. The diffs

are fetched by a separate container (see osm_update container).

The container will look for an OSM file (*.pbf) and its state file

(*.state.txt) in BASE_PBF.

With -e, you can add some settings :

```bash

 - TIME = 120, seconds between 2 executions of the script

 - POSTGRES_USER = docker, default user

 - POSTGRES_PASS = docker, default password

 - POSTGRES_HOST = db

 - POSTGRES_PORT = 5432

 - SETTINGS = settings, folder for settings (with *.json and *.sql)

 - CACHE = cache, folder for caching

 - BASE_PBF = base_pbf, folder the OSM file

 - IMPORT_DONE = import_done, folder for diff which has been imported

 - IMPORT_QUEUE = import_queue, folder for diff which hasn't been imported yet

 - SRID = 4326, it can be 3857

 - OPTIMIZE = false, check (Imposm)[http://imposm.org/docs/imposm3/latest/tutorial.html#optimize]

 - DBSCHEMA_PRODUCTION = public, check (Imposm)[http://imposm.org/docs/imposm3/latest/tutorial.html#deploy-production-tables]

 - DBSCHEMA_IMPORT = import, check (Imposm)[http://imposm.org/docs/imposm3/latest/tutorial.html#deploy-production-tables]

 - DBSCHEMA_BACKUP = backup, check (Imposm)[http://imposm.org/docs/imposm3/latest/tutorial.html#deploy-production-tables]

```

You can adjust these preferences in the ```docker-compose.yml``` file provided

in this repository.
