• OpenStreetMap Nominatim API Lib for Nim, Async & Sync, Pull Requests welcome.

• nimble install nominatim

From Nim code:

import nominatim

# Sync Client.
let openstreetmap_client = Nominatim(timeout: 5)
# Searching OpenStreetMap Example.
echo openstreetmap_client.search(query="135+pilkington+avenue,+birmingham").pretty
# Lookup on OpenStreetMap Example.
echo openstreetmap_client.lookup(osm_ids="R146656,W104393803,N240109189").pretty
# Reverse query on OpenStreetMap Example.
echo openstreetmap_client.reverse(lat = -34.44076, lon = -58.70521).pretty

## Async client.
proc async_nominatim() {.async.} =
  let
    async_nominatim_client = AsyncNominatim(timeout: 9)
    async_response = await async_nominatim_client.search(query="135+pilkington+avenue,+birmingham")
  echo async_response.pretty

wait_for async_nominatim()

Search as a command line app:

$ ./nominatim --color --lower --timeout=9 --search "135 pilkington avenue, birmingham"

Lookup as a command line app:

$ ./nominatim --color --lower --lookup "R146656,W104393803,N240109189"

Reverse as a command line app:

$ ./nominatim --color --lower --lon=-58.70521 --lat=-34.44076  --reverse "reverse"

• None.

• The timeout argument is on Seconds.
• All the responses are JSON, JsonNode type.
• OpenStreetMap API limits the length of all key and value strings to a maximum of 255 characters.
• For Proxy support define a Nominatim.proxy or AsyncNominatim.proxy of Proxy type.
• No OS-specific code, so it should work on Linux, Windows and Mac. Not JS.

search*(this: Nominatim | AsyncNominatim, query: string, api_url = api_url)

• this is Nominatim(timeout=int8) for Synchronous code or AsyncNominatim(timeout=int8) for Asynchronous code.
• query is an Nominatim query, string type, required.
• api_url is an Nominatim HTTP API URL, string type, optional.

lookup*(this: Nominatim | AsyncNominatim, osm_ids: string, addressdetails = true, extratags = true, namedetails = true, email = "", accept_language = "EN", api_url = api_url)

• this is Nominatim(timeout=int8) for Synchronous code or AsyncNominatim(timeout=int8) for Asynchronous code.
• osm_ids is an Nominatim OpenStreetMap IDs, string type, comma separated, max 50 items, required.
• addressdetails Set to true to show address details, bool type, optional, defaults to true.
• extratags Set to true to show extra tags, bool type, optional, defaults to true.
• namedetails Set to true to show name details, bool type, optional, defaults to true.
• email Set to your email address (for massive heavy use of the API), string type, defaults to "", optional.
• accept_language Set output spoken language, string type, defaults to "EN", optional.
• api_url is an Nominatim HTTP API URL, string type, optional.

reverse*(this: Nominatim | AsyncNominatim, lat: float, lon: float, osm_ids = "", osm_type = ' ', zoom: range[-1..18] = -1, addressdetails = true, extratags = true, namedetails = true, email = "", accept_language = "EN", api_url = api_url)

• this is Nominatim(timeout=int8) for Synchronous code or AsyncNominatim(timeout=int8) for Asynchronous code.
• osm_ids is an Nominatim OpenStreetMap IDs, string type, comma separated, max 50 items, required.
• addressdetails Set to true to show address details, bool type, optional, defaults to true.

• api_url is an Nominatim HTTP API URL, string type, optional.
• zoom is the Zoom, a positive integer between -1 and 18, range[-1..18] type, defaults to -1, -1 means disabled, optional.
• lat is the Latitude, float type, required.
• lon is the Longitude, float type, required.
