pbf-craft

A Rust library and command-line tool for reading and writing OpenSteetMap PBF file format.

It contains a variety of PBF readers for a variety of scenarios. For example, a PBF reader with an index can locate and read elements more efficiently. It also provides a PBF writer that can write PBF data to a file.

Since this crate uses the btree_cursors feature, it requires you to use the nightly version of rust.

• Written in pure Rust
• Provides an indexing feature to the PBF to greatly improve read performance.

Example

Reading a PBF file:

use pbf_craft::readers::PbfReader;

let mut reader = PbfReader::from_path("resources/andorra-latest.osm.pbf").unwrap();
reader.read(|header, element| {
    if let Some(header_reader) = header {
        // Process header
    }
    if let Some(element) = element {
        // Process element
    }
}).unwrap();

Finding an element using the index feature. IndexedReader creates an index file for the PBF file, which allows you to quickly locate and retrieve an element when looking for it using its ID. IndexedReader has an cache option, with which you can fetch a element with its dependencies more efficiently.

use pbf_craft::models::ElementType;
use pbf_craft::readers::IndexedReader;

let mut indexed_reader = IndexedReader::from_path_with_cache("resources/andorra-latest.osm.pbf", 1000).unwrap();
let node = indexed_reader.find(&ElementType::Node, 12345678).unwrap();
let element_list = indexed_reader.get_with_deps(&ElementType::Way, 1055523837).unwrap();

Writing a PBF file:

use pbf_craft::models::{Element, Node};
use pbf_craft::writers::PbfWriter;

let mut writer = PbfWriter::from_path("resources/output.osm.pbf", true).unwrap();
writer.write(Element::Node(Node::default())).unwrap();
writer.finish().unwrap();
