chargingtool

Tool to show charging stations in a web app.

Dependencies

• mkdocs
• osmium
• Crystal language tools

Getting started

Compilation

The compilation is easy:

make build

Run a demo

These are the steps to test the tool.

• Download some *.pbf files

download-pbf.sh

• Filter on Ionity charging stations

filter-ionity.sh

This results in a number of .xml files which can be inspected.

The next step is building the website.

mkdir test
cd test
chargingtool --init

This is the result:

.
├── project.yml
├── site
│   ├── Makefile
│   ├── docs
│   │   └── index.md
│   ├── mkdocs.yml
│   └── overrides
│       └── main.html
└── src

Move the .xml files to the src map.

Now convert the .xml into .md which end up in the site/docs map. Each country gets its own directory. The overrides/main.html file has extra Leaflet code in order to show the map with red bullets for each charging station.

Now run the site:

cd site
make run
