+#!/bin/bash
+#
+# *Note:* these installation instructions are also available in executable
+# form for use with vagrant under `vagrant/Install-on-Centos-8.sh`.
+#
+# Installing the Required Software
+# ================================
+#
+# These instructions expect that you have a freshly installed CentOS version 8.
+# Make sure all packages are up-to-date by running:
+#
+ sudo dnf update -y
+
+# The standard CentOS repositories don't contain all the required packages,
+# you need to enable the EPEL repository as well. For example for SELinux
+# related redhat-hardened-cc1 package. To enable it on CentOS run:
+
+ sudo dnf install -y epel-release redhat-rpm-config
+
+# EPEL contains Postgres 9.6 and 10, but not PostGIS. Postgres 9.4+/10/11/12
+# and PostGIS 2.4/2.5/3.0 are availble from postgresql.org
+
+ sudo dnf -qy module disable postgresql
+ sudo dnf install -y https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/yum/reporpms/EL-8-x86_64/pgdg-redhat-repo-latest.noarch.rpm
+
+# Now you can install all packages needed for Nominatim:
+
+#DOCS: :::sh
+ sudo dnf --enablerepo=PowerTools install -y postgresql10-server \
+ postgresql10-contrib postgresql10-devel postgis25_10 \
+ wget git cmake make gcc gcc-c++ libtool policycoreutils-python-utils \
+ llvm-toolset ccache clang-tools-extra \
+ php-pgsql php php-intl php-json libpq-devel \
+ proj52-epsg bzip2-devel proj-devel boost-devel \
+ expat-devel zlib-devel
+
+ # make sure pg_config gets found
+ echo 'PATH=/usr/pgsql-10/bin:$PATH' >> ~/.bash_profile
+ source ~/.bash_profile
+
+# If you want to run the test suite, you need to install the following
+# additional packages:
+
+#DOCS: :::sh
+ sudo dnf install -y python36 python3-pip python3-setuptools python36-devel \
+ php-dom php-mbstring
+
+ pip3 install --user behave nose pytidylib psycopg2
+
+ composer global require "squizlabs/php_codesniffer=*"
+ sudo ln -s ~/.config/composer/vendor/bin/phpcs /usr/bin/
+
+ composer global require "phpunit/phpunit=^7"
+ sudo ln -s ~/.config/composer/vendor/bin/phpunit /usr/bin/
+
+#
+# System Configuration
+# ====================
+#
+# The following steps are meant to configure a fresh CentOS installation
+# for use with Nominatim. You may skip some of the steps if you have your
+# OS already configured.
+#
+# Creating Dedicated User Accounts
+# --------------------------------
+#
+# Nominatim will run as a global service on your machine. It is therefore
+# best to install it under its own separate user account. In the following
+# we assume this user is called nominatim and the installation will be in
+# /srv/nominatim. To create the user and directory run:
+#
+sudo mkdir -p /srv/nominatim #DOCS: sudo useradd -d /srv/nominatim -s /bin/bash -m nominatim
+sudo chown vagrant /srv/nominatim #DOCS:
+#
+# You may find a more suitable location if you wish.
+#
+# To be able to copy and paste instructions from this manual, export
+# user name and home directory now like this:
+#
+ export USERNAME=vagrant #DOCS: export USERNAME=nominatim
+ export USERHOME=/srv/nominatim
+#
+# **Never, ever run the installation as a root user.** You have been warned.
+#
+# Make sure that system servers can read from the home directory:
+
+ chmod a+x $USERHOME
+
+# Setting up PostgreSQL
+# ---------------------
+#
+# CentOS does not automatically create a database cluster. Therefore, start
+# with initializing the database, then enable the server to start at boot:
+
+
+ sudo /usr/pgsql-10/bin/postgresql-10-setup initdb
+ sudo systemctl enable postgresql-10
+
+#
+# Next tune the postgresql configuration, which is located in
+# `/var/lib/pgsql/data/postgresql.conf`. See section *Postgres Tuning* in
+# [the installation page](../admin/Installation.md#postgresql-tuning)
+# for the parameters to change.
+#
+# Now start the postgresql service after updating this config file.
+
+ sudo systemctl restart postgresql-10
+
+#
+# Finally, we need to add two postgres users: one for the user that does
+# the import and another for the webserver which should access the database
+# only for reading:
+#
+
+ sudo -u postgres createuser -s $USERNAME
+ sudo -u postgres createuser apache
+
+#
+# Setting up the Apache Webserver
+# -------------------------------
+#
+# You need to create an alias to the website directory in your apache
+# configuration. Add a separate nominatim configuration to your webserver:
+
+#DOCS:```sh
+sudo tee /etc/httpd/conf.d/nominatim.conf << EOFAPACHECONF
+<Directory "$USERHOME/build/website">
+ Options FollowSymLinks MultiViews
+ AddType text/html .php
+ DirectoryIndex search.php
+ Require all granted
+</Directory>
+
+Alias /nominatim $USERHOME/build/website
+EOFAPACHECONF
+#DOCS:```
+
+sudo sed -i 's:#.*::' /etc/httpd/conf.d/nominatim.conf #DOCS:
+
+#
+# Then reload apache
+#
+
+ sudo systemctl enable httpd
+ sudo systemctl restart httpd
+
+
+#
+# Installing Nominatim
+# ====================
+#
+# Building and Configuration
+# --------------------------
+#
+# Get the source code from Github and change into the source directory
+#
+if [ "x$1" == "xyes" ]; then #DOCS: :::sh
+ cd $USERHOME
+ git clone --recursive git://github.com/openstreetmap/Nominatim.git
+ cd Nominatim
+else #DOCS:
+ cd $USERHOME/Nominatim #DOCS:
+fi #DOCS:
+
+# When installing the latest source from github, you also need to
+# download the country grid:
+
+if [ ! -f data/country_osm_grid.sql.gz ]; then #DOCS: :::sh
+ wget --no-verbose -O data/country_osm_grid.sql.gz https://www.nominatim.org/data/country_grid.sql.gz
+fi #DOCS:
+
+# The code must be built in a separate directory. Create this directory,
+# then configure and build Nominatim in there:
+
+#DOCS: :::sh
+ cd $USERHOME
+ mkdir build
+ cd build
+ cmake $USERHOME/Nominatim
+ make
+
+#
+# Adding SELinux Security Settings
+# --------------------------------
+#
+# It is a good idea to leave SELinux enabled and enforcing, particularly
+# with a web server accessible from the Internet. At a minimum the
+# following SELinux labeling should be done for Nominatim:
+
+ sudo semanage fcontext -a -t httpd_sys_content_t "$USERHOME/Nominatim/(website|lib|settings)(/.*)?"
+ sudo semanage fcontext -a -t httpd_sys_content_t "$USERHOME/build/(website|lib|settings)(/.*)?"
+ sudo semanage fcontext -a -t lib_t "$USERHOME/build/module/nominatim.so"
+ sudo restorecon -R -v $USERHOME/Nominatim
+ sudo restorecon -R -v $USERHOME/build
+
+
+# You need to create a minimal configuration file that tells nominatim
+# the name of your webserver user and the URL of the website:
+
+#DOCS:```sh
+tee settings/local.php << EOF
+<?php
+ @define('CONST_Database_Web_User', 'apache');
+ @define('CONST_Website_BaseURL', '/nominatim/');
+EOF
+#DOCS:```
+
+
+# Nominatim is now ready to use. Continue with
+# [importing a database from OSM data](../admin/Import-and-Update.md).
