This repository is part of the Pelias project. Pelias is an open-source, open-data geocoder originally sponsored by Mapzen. Our official user documentation is here.

Note: this repository is currently in the process of being migrated from the OpenTransitTools organization in to the Pelias org During this time some of the documentation and workflows may be changed in order to bring it more in common with other repositories under the pelias org.

pelias.transit.loader

Load transit landmarks, stops and street intersections into the Pelias geocoder.

Setup empty ES index via pelias/schema project

cd /srv/pelias_loader/projects/schema
curl -XDELETE 'localhost:9200/pelias?pretty'
node scripts/create_index.js
cd -

to run:

npm install
npm start
http://localhost:9200/_cat/indices?v
curl -XGET http://localhost:9200/pelias/_search?pretty=true&q=*:*
curl -XGET http://localhost:3100/v1/search?text=2
curl -XGET http://localhost:9200/pelias/_search?pretty=true&q=name.default:*SMART%20Stop*

note: you might need to set an env var to find pelias.json (if you keep getting 'transit' not in your schema errors, try the following):

export PELIAS_CONFIG=${PWD#/cygdrive/c}/pelias.json

-or-

$Env:PELIAS_CONFIG="$(pwd)\pelias.json"

to delete transit data from the index:

1. TBD ... each version of Elastic Search has a different way to bulk delete
2. TBD ... so waiting on Pelias to officially use ElasticSearch v5.x
3. curl -XGET 'http://localhost:9200/pelias/_search?q=source:transit&pretty'
4. might need delete api plugin: https://github.com/pelias/dockerfiles/blob/master/elasticsearch/2.4/Dockerfile
