Great⦠Thank you @rinigus . I am able to install the Pure Mapsā¦
Now I am not able to use it, i am getting following error, āError occurred while loading current mapā and in navigation, i am not getting current location.
I have installed OSM Scout and i have downloaded USA map from MLS manager. And i have MapTiler API Key.
Could you please suggest⦠Thank you very much for your assistance.
Did you mean āOSM Scout Serverā? I suggest that you check that that one is installed. āOSM Scoutā is a different application that wonāt help you with PureMaps.
Just a quick note in case anyone else runs into the same issue: I had a couple of custom maps [1] defined under ~/.local/share/harbour-pure-maps/maps/ that stopped working after upgrading from the openrepos version to the Chum version. Turns out it didnāt have anything to do with the version upgrade, but to the app name change instead. So simply copying the map definitions under ~/.local/share/io.github.rinigus/PureMaps/maps/ fixed the issue
Also, Iām, going to use this opportunity to say a huge thanks for the awesome app!
[1] Finnish peruskartta via the Kapsi service like so in case anyone is interested:
So, here are some API āpain pointsā with Jolla Store that popped up right now:
No systemd services/activation. That basically disables OSM Scout Server support. Probably few others could use it - messaging apps, for example.
We donāt have any TTS service. So, if I wish to start executable for making prompts, I cannot do that in Sailjail environment. But, in general, lack of TTS support on the platform.
I am not sure if we could communicate with other apps via DBus. Canāt right now find it in the code, but it seems so based on the warning that I wrote earlier. Pure Maps does provide its DBus API for others and is using OSM Scout Server API for map matching.
There are probably more, but those I can see are disabled in Pure Maps code for Jolla Store or are warned about.
@rinigus / @pakman , do i still need MLS Manager? Or can i remove that?
Having that will help pure maps in any way ? Or its just redundant and i can remove?
I installed Puremaps using chum store and added here maps so POI works better and better maps. But did need TTS. While iām grateful for mimic in the store mimic1 only supports English and sounds like crap. so i thought about trying mimic3 instead that sounds better and supports more languages but i wonder if puremaps would work with mimic3?
Since weāre talking about TTS⦠Sorry for asking a possibly duplicate question - I have a vague memory of someone asking this question, but I couldnāt find it via search: would it be possible to exclude street names from the navigation directions, when using TTS?
Iām using PicoTTS and when the engine is trying to pronounce non-english street names, it sounds really weird and makes it harder to understand the directions. Also, the street names donāt usually add any real value to the directions, even if they were correctly pronounced - at least in my opinion.
Anyways, Pure Maps is one my favourite SFOS apps and Iāve been completely satisfied with the user experience so far. Great work!
That comes up once in a while. With the exception of HERE router (where Pure Maps generates sentences itself), all other routers give instructions with text. Which means that these changes have to be done on the router level. I havenāt checked if Valhalla has some option to disable it.
Hi all,
I recently was in the colleague car.
He is using Waze and I was very impressed when the app suddenly changed the route by itself because of a traffic jam.
Thanks to this, we could avoid being stuck in the city.
But I guess this app is a data-pump and it works thank to data uploaded from clients being stuck or not, in the traffic.
I searched here and on telegram and found ways to see traffic on the maps.
But I couldnāt find if there was a way to take traffic in account for the route calculation.
Is there a provider (with api key) that offers this function?
This said, Iām using Pure Maps almost every day and it is really a great app. Being able to use it offline, along with OSM Scout Server is also neat!
Oh, another question:
Is there a way to contribute/bring improvements to the routing calculation?
When I select āno tollsā, the route still passes through a pay tunnel.
Is there a way for me to bring the correction?
HERE router should take into account traffic and Pure Maps asks for rerouting once in a while with this router. To use this router, you need to enable HERE API keys and switch over to HERE profile. Such separate profile is made to comply with HERE conditions.
As for routing feedback - check if it is marked as route with tolls at OSM.org. If it is, check out which router was used. Ideally, check it with online routers as they have the latest data. When you can reproduce with online router, file report with the corresponding route engine. If you get in trouble finding which one was used, please ask.
