+These instructions are designed for setting up `openstreetmap-website` for development and testing.
If you want to deploy the software for your own project, then see the notes at the end.
You can install the software directly on your machine, which is the traditional and probably best-supported approach. However, there
These instructions are based on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, which is the platform used by the OSMF servers.
The instructions also work, with only minor amendments, for all other current Ubuntu releases, Fedora and MacOSX
-We don't recommend attempting to develop or deploy this software on Windows. If you need to use Windows, then try developing this software using Ubuntu in a virtual machine, or use [Vagrant](VAGRANT.md).
+We don't recommend attempting to develop or deploy this software on Windows. Some Ruby gems may not be supported. If you need to use Windows the easiest solutions in order are [Docker](DOCKER.md), [Vagrant](VAGRANT.md), and Ubuntu in a virtual machine.
## Dependencies
We use [Yarn](https://yarnpkg.com/) to manage the Node.js modules required for the project.
```
-bundle exec rake yarn:install
+bundle exec bin/yarn install
```

+`openstreetmap-website` uses three databases - one for development, one for testing, and one for production. The database-specific configuration
options are stored in `config/database.yml`, which we need to create from the example template.
```
To create the three databases - for development, testing and production - run:
```
-bundle exec rake db:create
-```
-
-### PostgreSQL Btree-gist Extension
-
-We need to load the `btree-gist` extension, which is needed for showing changesets on the history tab.
-
-```
-psql -d openstreetmap -c "CREATE EXTENSION btree_gist"
-```
-
-### PostgreSQL Functions
-
-We need to install some special functions into the PostgreSQL database:
-
-```
-psql -d openstreetmap -f db/functions/functions.sql
+bundle exec rails db:create
```
### Database structure
To create all the tables, indexes and constraints, run:
```
-bundle exec rake db:migrate
+bundle exec rails db:migrate
```
## Running the tests
After installing this software, you may need to carry out some [configuration steps](CONFIGURE.md), depending on your tasks.
-# Installing compiled shared library database functions (optional)
-
-There are special database functions required by a (little-used) API call, the migrations and diff replication. The former two are provided as *either* pure SQL functions or a compiled shared library. The SQL versions are installed as part of the recommended install procedure above and the shared library versions are recommended only if you are running a production server and need the diff replication functionality.
-
-If you aren't sure which you need, stick with the SQL versions.
-
-Before installing the functions, it's necessary to install the PostgreSQL server development packages. On Ubuntu this means:
-
-```
-sudo apt-get install postgresql-server-dev-all
-```
-
-On Fedora:
-
-```
-sudo dnf install postgresql-devel
-```
-
-The library then needs compiling.
-
-```
-cd db/functions
-make libpgosm.so
-cd ../..
-```
-
-If you previously installed the SQL versions of these functions, we'll need to delete those before adding the new ones:
-
-```
-psql -d openstreetmap -c "DROP FUNCTION IF EXISTS tile_for_point"
-```
-
-Then we create the functions within each database. We're using `pwd` to substitute in the current working directory, since PostgreSQL needs the full path.
-
-```
-psql -d openstreetmap -c "CREATE FUNCTION tile_for_point(int4, int4) RETURNS int8 AS '`pwd`/db/functions/libpgosm', 'tile_for_point' LANGUAGE C STRICT"
-```
-
# Ruby development install and versions<a name="rbenv"></a> (optional)
For simplicity, this document explains how to install all the website dependencies as "system" dependencies. While this is simpler, and usually faster, you might want more control over the process or the ability to install multiple different versions of software alongside eachother. For many developers, [`rbenv`](https://github.com/rbenv/rbenv) is the easiest way to manage multiple different Ruby versions on the same computer - with the added advantage that the installs are all in your home directory, so you don't need administrator permissions.
