How to self host an Open Street Map server (using Docker)

Here are the steps needed to run a self hosted Open Street Map server (using Docker):

Download desired pbf files (like south-carolina-latest.osm.pbf) from https://download.geofabrik.de or just use the following empty planet below:


  <?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
  <osm version="0.6" generator="osmconvert 0.8.8" timestamp="2019-10-23T20:18:02Z">
    <bounds minlat="42.4276" minlon="1.412368" maxlat="42.65717" maxlon="1.787481"/>
  </osm>

Download osmconvert from https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Osmconvert.
If you decided to use empty-planet.osm, we need to get it in pbf format, so run:
```
  osmconvert empty-planet.osm -o=data.osm.pbf
```

If you decided to download some pbf files, we need to concatenate them together, so run (replacing the pbf and o5m file names where necessary):


  osmconvert south-carolina-latest.osm.pbf -o=south-carolina-latest.o5m
  osmconvert north-carolina-latest.osm.pbf -o=north-carolina-latest.o5m
  osmconvert south-carolina-latest.o5m north-carolina-latest.o5m -o=data.o5m
  osmconvert data.o5m -o=data.osm.pbf

Create a Dockerfile with the following content (in the same directory where your data.osm.pbf is):
```
  FROM overv/openstreetmap-tile-server
  COPY data.osm.pbf /data.osm.pbf
  RUN /run.sh import
  VOLUME ["/var/lib/postgresql/12/main", "/var/lib/mod_tile"]
  ENTRYPOINT ["/run.sh", "run"]
```
See https://github.com/Overv/openstreetmap-tile-server for more information about the base image used.
Build the container:
```
  docker build . -t osm-self-hosted
```
Run the container:
```
  docker run -p 80:80 -p 5432:5432 --name osm-self-hosted -e ALLOW_CORS=1 -d osm-self-hosted run
```
Port 80 is for the client. Port 5432 is for the database server. ALLOW_CORS=1 will enable CORS in case your client is served from a different domain.
Navigate to http://localhost in your browser. A simple example client will show the map if everything worked properly.
You can connect to the database using pgAdmin with the following info:
- Host: localhost:5432
- Maintenance database: gis
- User/pass is renderer
