.SH DESCRIPTION
Command\-line tools for importing, updating, administrating and
+.br
querying the Nominatim database.
+.br
.SH OPTIONS
Start a simple web server for serving the API.
.TP
\fBnominatim\fR \fI\,search\/\fR
- Execute API search query.
+ Execute a search query.
.TP
\fBnominatim\fR \fI\,reverse\/\fR
Execute API reverse query.
[--index-noanalyse]
Create a new Nominatim database from an OSM file.
+.br
+
+.br
+ This sub\-command sets up a new Nominatim database from scratch starting
+.br
+ with creating a new database in Postgresql. The user running this command
+.br
+ needs superuser rights on the database.
+.br
.TP
\fB\-\-osm\-file\fR FILE
-OSM file to be imported.
+OSM file to be imported (repeat for importing multiple files)
.TP
\fB\-\-continue\fR {load\-data,indexing,db\-postprocess}
.TP
\fB\-\-index\-noanalyse\fR
-Do not perform analyse operations during index
+Do not perform analyse operations during index (expert only)
.SH OPTIONS 'nominatim freeze'
usage: nominatim freeze [-h] [-q] [-v] [--project-dir DIR] [-j NUM]
Make database read\-only.
+.br
+.br
About half of data in the Nominatim database is kept only to be able to
+.br
keep the data up\-to\-date with new changes made in OpenStreetMap. This
+.br
command drops all this data and only keeps the part needed for geocoding
+.br
itself.
+.br
+.br
This command has the same effect as the `\-\-no\-updates` option for imports.
+.br
[--socket-timeout SOCKET_TIMEOUT]
Update the database using an online replication service.
+.br
+
+.br
+ An OSM replication service is an online service that provides regular
+.br
+ updates (OSM diff files) for the planet or update they provide. The OSMF
+.br
+ provides the primary replication service for the full planet at
+.br
+ https://planet.osm.org/replication/ but there are other providers of
+.br
+ extracts of OSM data who provide such a service as well.
+.br
+
+.br
+ This sub\-command allows to set up such a replication service and download
+.br
+ and import updates at regular intervals. You need to call '\-\-init' once to
+.br
+ set up the process or whenever you change the replication configuration
+.br
+ parameters. Without any arguments, the sub\-command will go into a loop and
+.br
+ continuously apply updates as they become available. Giving `\-\-once` just
+.br
+ downloads and imports the next batch of updates.
+.br
.TP
\fB\-\-no\-index\fR
-Do not index the new data. Only applicable together with \-\-once
+Do not index the new data. Only usable together with \-\-once
.TP
\fB\-\-osm2pgsql\-cache\fR SIZE
.TP
\fB\-\-socket\-timeout\fR \fI\,SOCKET_TIMEOUT\/\fR
-Set timeout for file downloads.
+Set timeout for file downloads
.SH OPTIONS 'nominatim special-phrases'
usage: nominatim special-phrases [-h] [-q] [-v] [--project-dir DIR] [-j NUM]
- [--import-from-wiki]
+ [--import-from-wiki] [--import-from-csv FILE]
+ [--no-replace]
Import special phrases.
+.br
+
+.br
+ Special phrases are search terms that narrow down the type of object
+.br
+ that should be searched. For example, you might want to search for
+.br
+ 'Hotels in Barcelona'. The OSM wiki has a selection of special phrases
+.br
+ in many languages, which can be imported with this command.
+.br
+
+.br
+ You can also provide your own phrases in a CSV file. The file needs to have
+.br
+ the following five columns:
+.br
+ * phrase \- the term expected for searching
+.br
+ * class \- the OSM tag key of the object type
+.br
+ * type \- the OSM tag value of the object type
+.br
+ * operator \- the kind of search to be done (one of: in, near, name, \-)
+.br
+ * plural \- whether the term is a plural or not (Y/N)
+.br
+
+.br
+ An example file can be found in the Nominatim sources at
+.br
+ 'test/testdb/full_en_phrases_test.csv'.
+.br
.TP
\fB\-\-import\-from\-wiki\fR
-Import special phrases from the OSM wiki to the database.
+Import special phrases from the OSM wiki to the database
+
+.TP
+\fB\-\-import\-from\-csv\fR FILE
+Import special phrases from a CSV file
+
+.TP
+\fB\-\-no\-replace\fR
+Keep the old phrases and only add the new ones
.SH OPTIONS 'nominatim add-data'
usage: nominatim add-data [-h] [-q] [-v] [--project-dir DIR] [-j NUM]
(--file FILE | --diff FILE | --node ID | --way ID | --relation ID | --tiger-data DIR)
- [--use-main-api]
+ [--use-main-api] [--osm2pgsql-cache SIZE]
+ [--socket-timeout SOCKET_TIMEOUT]
Add additional data from a file or an online source.
-
- Data is only imported, not indexed. You need to call `nominatim index`
- to complete the process.
+.br
+
+.br
+ This command allows to add or update the search data in the database.
+.br
+ The data can come either from an OSM file or single OSM objects can
+.br
+ directly be downloaded from the OSM API. This function only loads the
+.br
+ data into the database. Afterwards it still needs to be integrated
+.br
+ in the search index. Use the `nominatim index` command for that.
+.br
+
+.br
+ The command can also be used to add external non\-OSM data to the
+.br
+ database. At the moment the only supported format is TIGER housenumber
+.br
+ data. See the online documentation at
+.br
+ https://nominatim.org/release\-docs/latest/admin/Import/#installing\-tiger\-housenumber\-data\-for\-the\-us
+.br
+ for more information.
+.br
.TP
\fB\-\-file\fR FILE
-Import data from an OSM file
+Import data from an OSM file or diff file
.TP
\fB\-\-diff\fR FILE
-Import data from an OSM diff file
+Import data from an OSM diff file (deprecated: use \-\-file)
.TP
\fB\-\-node\fR ID
.TP
\fB\-\-tiger\-data\fR DIR
-Add housenumbers from the US TIGER census database.
+Add housenumbers from the US TIGER census database
.TP
\fB\-\-use\-main\-api\fR
Use OSM API instead of Overpass to download objects
+.TP
+\fB\-\-osm2pgsql\-cache\fR SIZE
+Size of cache to be used by osm2pgsql (in MB)
+
+.TP
+\fB\-\-socket\-timeout\fR \fI\,SOCKET_TIMEOUT\/\fR
+Set timeout for file downloads
+
.SH OPTIONS 'nominatim index'
usage: nominatim index [-h] [-q] [-v] [--project-dir DIR] [-j NUM]
[--boundaries-only] [--no-boundaries] [--minrank RANK]
[--maxrank RANK]
Reindex all new and modified data.
+.br
+
+.br
+ Indexing is the process of computing the address and search terms for
+.br
+ the places in the database. Every time data is added or changed, indexing
+.br
+ needs to be run. Imports and replication updates automatically take care
+.br
+ of indexing. For other cases, this function allows to run indexing manually.
+.br
[--enable-debug-statements]
Recompute auxiliary data used by the indexing process.
-
- These functions must not be run in parallel with other update commands.
+.br
+
+.br
+ This sub\-commands updates various static data and functions in the database.
+.br
+ It usually needs to be run after changing various aspects of the
+.br
+ configuration. The configuration documentation will mention the exact
+.br
+ command to use in such case.
+.br
+
+.br
+ Warning: the 'update' command must not be run in parallel with other update
+.br
+ commands like 'replication' or 'add\-data'.
+.br
