osm-tty

interactive offline OpenStreetMap viewer in the terminal

Uses hyperdb-osm and also osm-grab for downloading OSM XML to feed into the database.

setup

$ mkdir /tmp/mapz
$ cd /tmp/mapz

$ npm i -g osm-tty osm-grab

$ osm-grab osm-grab 37.81263 -122.26640 0.2 > oakland.xml

$ osm-tty import db oakland.xml
$ osm-tty db

hjkl keys to pan, io to zoom in and out.

Type s to enter -- SELECT -- mode. The labels will change to one-letter hints that you can type to get a raw OSM dump of that element.

It's pretty janky, and I only wrote render rules for a small subset of OSM features, but it's not bad for rudimentary offline navigation!
