Prerequisites

It uses:

Ruby (must be at least 1.9.1)
Mongrel or Apache2 mod_passenger
Sinatra web framework
Rack Contrib Gem (for Rack::JSONP)
JSON gem (install with gem, Debian/Ubuntu packages are too old and buggy)
curl binary
sqlite3 binary and ruby libs
m4 binary

Install the Debian/Ubuntu packages:

$ sudo apt-get install curl m4 sqlite3 ruby-sqlite3
$ sudo apt-get install ruby-passenger libapache2-mod-passenger

Install the Gems:

$ sudo gem install rack rack-contrib sinatra sinatra-r18n json

There is a developer mailing list: taginfo-dev

Data Import

See Taginfo/Running at OpenStreetMap's wiki.

Web User Interface

You need a /data directory (in the parent directory of the directory where this README.md is). It must contain the sqlite database files created in the data import step or downloaded from page taginfo.openstreetmap.org/download.

To start the web user interface:

$ cd web
$ ./taginfo.rb

Javascript

Taginfo uses the following Javascript libraries:

jQuery 1.9.0
jQuery UI 1.9.2
customSelect
tipsy
jQuery Cookie
Flexigrid (from Google Code and flexigrid.info, but with changes and bugfixes)

All the Javascript and CSS needed is already included.
