# PeliasLite
Minimal Single Service Interface of Pelias Geocoder in Nodejs
## Use Cases
- **Testing:** in all those cases where a complete instance of Pelias makes little sense to exist because its use is limited to small tests that do not provide accurate results
- **Small datasets:** the total amount of datasource to import is very limited and an elasticsearch instance would be too expensive for the expected results
- **Customized ranking:** you want to have total control over the raking of the results for particular cases where normal geocoding raking is not important
- **Light instance:** you have very limited resources available and you want to use a single docker container but still have the complete Pelias rest api
## usage
```bash
npm install
npm start
```
development mode
```bash
npm run dev
```
via Docker
```bash
docker-compose up
```
