= Run the OptaWeb Vehicle Routing using the `runLocally.sh` script | ||
|
||
Linux users can use a Bash script called `runLocally.sh` to run OptaWeb Vehicle Routing. | ||
The script automates some setup steps that would otherwise have to be carried out manually. | ||
The script will: | ||
|
||
* Create the VRP directory. | ||
* Download selected OSM files from Geofabrik. | ||
* Try to associate a country code with each downloaded OSM file automatically. | ||
* Build the project if the standalone JAR file does not exist. | ||
* Launch OptaWeb Vehicle Routing by taking a single region argument or by selecting the region interactively. | ||
== Getting started | ||
|
||
.Prerequisites | ||
* `optaweb-vehicle-routing` repository is cloned on your computer. | ||
* Internet access is available. | ||
* Java 8 or higher is installed. | ||
|
||
.Procedure | ||
. Change directory to the project root. | ||
. Run `./runLocally.sh`. | ||
. Confirm the download of the OSM file needed to work with the built-in data set. | ||
|
||
The application starts after the OSM file is downloaded. | ||
Open http://localhost:8080 in a web browser to work with OptaWeb Vehicle Routing. | ||
|
||
NOTE: The first start may take a few minutes because the OSM file needs to be imported by GraphHopper and stored as a road network graph. | ||
Subsequent runs will load the graph from the file system without importing the OSM file and will be significantly faster. | ||
|
||
== Interactive mode | ||
|
||
Using the interactive mode, you can see the list of downloaded OSM files and country codes assigned to each region. | ||
You can use the interactive mode to download additional OSM files from Geofabrik without visiting the website and choosing a destination for the download. | ||
|
||
=== Download a new region using the script | ||
|
||
.Procedure | ||
. Run `./runLocally.sh -i`. | ||
. Enter `d` to show the download menu. | ||
. Go to a region by entering its ID and then entering `e`. | ||
. Repeat the previous step until you see a list with the region you want to download. | ||
. Download a region by entering its ID and then entering `d`. | ||
|
||
=== Select a region and run OptaWeb Vehicle Routing | ||
|
||
.Procedure | ||
. Run `./runLocally.sh -i`. | ||
. Select a region from the list of downloaded regions by entering its ID. | ||
. Confirm the project build if it hasn't been built yet. | ||
. Confirm starting OptaWeb Vehicle Routing using the selected region. | ||
|
||
== Run OptaWeb Vehicle Routing with a selected region non-interactively | ||
|
||
Use the non-interactive mode to specify an existing region and start OptaWeb Vehicle Routing with a single command. | ||
This is useful for switching between regions quickly or when doing a demo. | ||
|
||
.Procedure | ||
. Run `./runLocally.sh <REGION>`. | ||
|
||
== Tweak the VRP directory | ||
|
||
* To use a different VRP directory, write its absolute path to the `.VRP_DIR_LAST` file at the project root. | ||
|
||
* To change country codes associated with a region, edit the corresponding file under `_VRP_DIR_/country_codes/`. | ||
+ | ||
For example, you could have downloaded an OSM file for Scotland, for which the script fails to guess the country code. | ||
In this case, set the content of `_VRP_DIR_/country_codes/scotland-latest` to `GB`. | ||
|
||
* To remove a region, delete the corresponding OSM file from `_VRP_DIR_/openstreetmap/` and GraphHopper directory from `_VRP_DIR_/graphhopper/`. |
