+

+
+## Testing
+For testing purposes you could skip the nominatim installation and use one of this geocoding providers that run a server for free:
+
+- [https://photon.komoot.io/](https://photon.komoot.io/) [0]
+- [https://nominatim.openstreetmap.org](https://nominatim.openstreetmap.org) [1]
+
+---
+
+## Requirements
+From [https://nominatim.org/release-docs/latest/admin/Installation/](https://nominatim.org/release-docs/latest/admin/Installation/)
+
+"A minimum of 2GB of RAM is required or installation will fail. For a full planet import 128GB of RAM or more are strongly recommended. Do not report out of memory problems if you have less than 64GB RAM."
+
+### Planet mirrors
+There is a list of planet mirror at [https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Planet.osm#Planet.osm_mirrors](https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Planet.osm#Planet.osm_mirrors)      
+There you can also find `Country and area extracts`, divided by `Worldwide extract sources` and `Regional extract sources`
+
+### Download an extract
+For Nominatim to work, you will needs to import files in [PBF Format](https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/PBF_Format) in the PostGis database. Those files have extension `*.osm.pbf`.
+
+Some of these mirrors provide also incremental updates via [OsmChange](https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OsmChange), for example:
+- Provides updates but with a lower detail    
+[https://download.geofabrik.de/europe/italy/nord-ovest-updates/nord-ovest-latest.osm.pbf](http://download.geofabrik.de/europe/italy/nord-ovest-latest.osm.pbf)    
+[https://download.geofabrik.de/europe/italy/nord-ovest-updates/](https://download.geofabrik.de/europe/italy/nord-ovest-updates/)
+- Does not provide updates but as higher level of detail     
+[https://osmit-estratti-test.wmcloud.org/dati/poly/province/pbf/015_Milano_poly.osm.pbf](https://osmit-estratti-test.wmcloud.org/dati/poly/province/pbf/015_Milano_poly.osm.pbf)
+
+Needs to host multiple areas? Checkout [Osmium](https://osmcode.org/osmium-tool/manual.html), to merge multiple PBF files into one.
+

+
+## Install on Debian
+There is a [detailed documentaion](https://nominatim.org/release-docs/latest/appendix/Install-on-Ubuntu-22/) for installing nominatim on `Ubuntu 22` that should be valid also to install on `Debian`.
+
+### Setup
+[https://nominatim.org/release-docs/latest/appendix/Install-on-Ubuntu-22/#installing-the-required-software](https://nominatim.org/release-docs/latest/appendix/Install-on-Ubuntu-22/#installing-the-required-software)
+
+### Building and Configuration
+
+Get the source code from Github and change into the source directory
+```
+cd $USERHOME
+wget https://nominatim.org/release/Nominatim-4.2.0.tar.bz2
+tar xf Nominatim-4.2.0.tar.bz2
+```
+
+The code must be built in a separate directory. Create this directory, then configure and build Nominatim in there:
+```
+mkdir $USERHOME/build
+cd $USERHOME/build
+cmake $USERHOME/Nominatim-4.2.0
+make
+```
+
+### Setting up the webserver
+[https://nominatim.org/release-docs/latest/appendix/Install-on-Ubuntu-22/#setting-up-a-webserver](https://nominatim.org/release-docs/latest/appendix/Install-on-Ubuntu-22/#setting-up-a-webserver)
+
+### Import the database
+[https://nominatim.org/release-docs/latest/admin/Import/](https://nominatim.org/release-docs/latest/admin/Import/)
+
+---
+
+## Install using docker
+
+### Setup
+Make sure to have [Docker Engine](https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/),
+[Docker Compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/) and [git](https://git-scm.com/downloads) installed:
+```bash
+sudo apt install docker docker-compose git
+```
+
+### Clone the project
+From [https://github.com/mediagis/nominatim-docker](https://github.com/mediagis/nominatim-docker)    
+
+- Clone the project from sources
+```bash
+git clone git@github.com:mediagis/nominatim-docker.git
+# cd nominatim-docker/<version>
+cd nominatim-docker/4.2/contrib # released Nov 29, 2022
+docker-compose pull
+```
+
+- Or, use the template at `docs/docker/nominatim`
+```
+cd /opt/gancio/docs/docker/nominatim
+docker-compose pull
+```
+
+### Import the database
+See [Requirements](#requirements) about downloading the `.osm.pbf` files
+```bash
+cd docs/docker/nominatim/
+wget https://download.geofabrik.de/europe/italy/nord-ovest-updates/nord-ovest-latest.osm.pbf \
+    ./nominatim/data/default.osm.pbf
+```
+
+### Configure the environment file
+```
+cd docs/docker/nominatim/
+cp .env.example .env
+```
+Create a random password for nominatim a add it to .env file
+```bash
+NOMINATIM_PASSWORD=random_password;
+NOMINATIM_PASSWORD=$(echo $NOMINATIM_PASSWORD | openssl passwd --stdin);
+echo $NOMINATIM_PASSWORD;
+sed -i -e 's/\(NOMINATIM_PASSWORD=\)\(.*\)/\1'$NOMINATIM_PASSWORD'/g' .env
+```
+
+### Start nominatim-docker
+
+Start your container:
+```bash
+docker-compose up -d
+```
+Checkout the logs to see when data are imported to the database:
+```bash
+docker-compose logs -f
+```
