9 osmium apply-changes [OPTIONS] OSM-DATA-FILE OSM-CHANGE-FILE... osmium
10 apply-changes [OPTIONS] OSM-HISTORY-FILE OSM-CHANGE-FILE...
11
13 Merges the content of all OSM change files and applies those changes to
14 the OSM data or history file.
15 Objects in the data or history file must be sorted by type, ID, and
17 version. Objects in change files need not be sorted, so it doesn’t
18 matter in what order the change files are given or in what order they
19 contain the data.
20 Changes can be applied to normal OSM data files or OSM history files
22 with this command. File formats will be autodetected from the file
23 name suffixes, see the --with-history/-H option if that doesn’t work.
24 This commands reads its input file(s) only once and writes its output
26 file in one go so it can be streamed, ie. it can read from STDIN and
27 write to STDOUT.
28
30 -H, --with-history
31 Update an OSM history file (instead of a normal OSM data file).
32 Both input and output must be history files. This option is
33 usually not necessary, because history files will be detected
34 from their file name suffixes, but if this detection doesn’t
35 work, you can force this mode with this option. Can not be used
36 together with the --locations-on-ways option.
37 --locations-on-ways
39 Input has and output should have node locations on ways. Can be
40 used to update files created by the osmium-add-loca‐
41 tions-to-ways. See there for details on the format. Can not be
42 used together with the --with-history/-H option.
43 --redact
45 Redact (patch) history files. Change files can contain any ver‐
46 sion of any object which will replace that version of that
47 object from the input. This allows changing the history! This
48 mode is for special use only, for instance to remove copyrighted
49 or private data.
50 -r, --remove-deleted
52 Deprecated. Remove deleted objects from the output. This is
53 now the default if your input file is a normal OSM data file
54 (`.osm').
55 -s, --simplify
57 Deprecated. Only write the last version of any object to the
58 output. This is now the default if your input file is a normal
59 OSM data file (`.osm').
60
62 -h, --help
63 Show usage help.
64 -v, --verbose
66 Set verbose mode. The program will output information about
67 what it is doing to STDERR.
68 --progress
70 Show progress bar. Usually a progress bar is only displayed if
71 STDOUT and STDERR are detected to be TTY. With this option a
72 progress bar is always shown. Note that a progress bar will
73 never be shown when reading from STDIN or a pipe.
74 --no-progress
76 Do not show progress bar. Usually a progress bar is displayed
77 if STDOUT and STDERR are detected to be a TTY. With this option
78 the progress bar is suppressed. Note that a progress bar will
79 never be shown when reading from STDIN or a pipe.
80
82 -F, --input-format=FORMAT
83 The format of the OSM-DATA-FILE or OSM-HISTORY-FILE. Can be
84 used to set the input format if it can’t be autodetected from
85 the file name. See osmium-file-formats(5) or the libosmium man‐
86 ual for details.
87 --change-file-format=FORMAT
89 The format of the OSM-CHANGE-FILE(s). Can be used to set the
90 input format if it can’t be autodetected from the file name(s).
91 This will set the format for all change files, there is no way
92 to set the format for some change files only. See
93 osmium-file-formats(5) or the libosmium manual for details.
94
96 -f, --output-format=FORMAT
97 The format of the output file. Can be used to set the output
98 file format if it can’t be autodetected from the output file
99 name. See osmium-file-formats(5) or the libosmium manual for
100 details.
101 --fsync
103 Call fsync after writing the output file to force flushing buf‐
104 fers to disk.
105 --generator=NAME
107 The name and version of the program generating the output file.
108 It will be added to the header of the output file. Default is
109 “osmium/” and the version of osmium.
110 -o, --output=FILE
112 Name of the output file. Default is `-' (STDOUT).
113 -O, --overwrite
115 Allow an existing output file to be overwritten. Normally
116 osmium will refuse to write over an existing file.
117 --output-header=OPTION=VALUE
119 Add output header option. This command line option can be used
120 multiple times for different OPTIONs. See the libosmium manual
121 for a list of available header options. For some commands you
122 can use the special format “OPTION!” (ie. an exclamation mark
123 after the OPTION and no value set) to set the value to the same
124 as in the input file.
125
127 osmium apply-changes exits with exit code
128 0 if everything went alright,
130 1 if there was an error processing the data, or
132 2 if there was a problem with the command line arguments.
134
136 osmium apply-changes keeps the contents of all the change files in main
137 memory. This will take roughly 10 times as much memory as the files
138 take on disk in .osm.bz2 format.
139
141 Apply changes in 362.osc.gz to planet file and write result to
142 new.osm.pbf:
143 osmium apply-changes --output=new.osm.pbf planet.osm.pbf 362.osc.gz
