This is the part of osmose [http://osmose.openstreetmap.fr] which analyses OSM and send results to frontend. This works as following:

• an .osm.bz2 or .osm.pbf extract is downloaded from a path
• downloaded file is converted to .osm, with bunzip2 or osmconvert
• if necessary, an osmosis dump is generated in a local database
• analyses are run directly on .osm file, or on the database
• analyses are stored on a local webserver, and a link is sent to the frontend so that it can download the results
• temporary extract files and database are purged

Osmose QA backend requires python > 2.6.

Setup system dependencies (Ubuntu Server 14.04)

apt install python

You can install python dependencies in the system or in a virtualenv.

In the system install the folowing packages:

apt install python-dateutil python-imposm-parser python-lockfile python-polib python-poster python-psycopg2 python-shapely python-regex

Alternatively instal python-virtualenv and create a new virtualenv.

Setup system dependencies (Ubuntu Server 14.04)

apt install git python-dev python-virtualenv libpq-dev protobuf-compiler libprotobuf-dev

Create a python virtualenv, active it and install python dependencies

virtualenv --python=python2.7 osmose-backend-venv
source osmose-backend-venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt

To run tests, additional packages are needed.

pip install -r requirements-dev.txt

Setup system dependencies (Ubuntu Server 14.04)

apt install postgresql-9.3 postgresql-contrib-9.3 postgresql-9.3-postgis-2.1

As postgres user:

createuser osmose
# Set your own password
psql -c "ALTER ROLE osmose WITH PASSWORD '-osmose-';"
createdb -E UTF8 -T template0 -O osmose osmose
# Enable extensions
psql -c "CREATE extension hstore; CREATE extension fuzzystrmatch; CREATE extension unaccent; CREATE extension postgis;" osmose
psql -c "GRANT SELECT,UPDATE,DELETE ON TABLE spatial_ref_sys TO osmose;" osmose

Java JRE for osmosis (Ubuntu Server 14.04):

apt install openjdk-7-jre-headless

osmosis is installed in osmosis/osmosis-0.44/. osmconvert is installed in osmconvert/.

A few paths are hardcoded in modules/config.py, and should be adapted or created.

• dir_osmose is the path of where osmose is installed
• dir_work is where extracts are stored, and results generated.
• url_frontend_update is the url used to send results generated by analyses

The local postgresql database should be configured in osmose_config.py:

• db_base = osmose # database name
• db_user = osmose # database user
• db_password = # database password if needed
• db_host = # database hostname if needed

You may want to include this info in ~/.pgpass to avoid entering the database password while processing the files.

See https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Pgpass for more info.

Look at the osmose_run.py help for options

osmose_run.py -h

When you have configured the backend for the country you want to add, please send an email to osmose-contact@openstreetmap.fr. We will then send you the password to use to connect to the frontend.
