Enriching OpenStreetMap.org website with Tempermonkey

Postiwyd gan DavidKarlas ar 9 Tachwedd 2023 yn English

Tampermonkey is web browser extension that allows adding JavaScript to any website in your browser and manipulate content of that website. It sounds scary and probably should, first you need to trust extension itself and then scripts that you install. Since extension itself has huge community and history, millions of installs across Chrome/Edge/Firefox extensions stores, 5 stars… Let’s assume we can trust it…

I wrote some time ago script that I want to share with everyone, it adds few buttons to OpenStreetMap.org website. Here is example how it looks like: Image showing new buttons added to OpenStreetMap.org website

On example of New York above buttons would take you to following websites:

  • PeWu nice and simple history view of changes on nodes, ways or relations
  • DeepHistory another history viewer, but in tabular view
  • Relation Analyzer helpful website for validating/analyzing relations
  • Overpass Opens Overpass at same viewport as currently seen on OSM website

It also adds different set of buttons linking to Achavi, OSMHV, OSMCha and OSM Lab websites when viewing changeset on website: Shows enriched OSM website

To install this extension in your browser go to https://www.tampermonkey.net/ and follow instructions…

Once you have it installed… You will want to install script that I wrote to do that:

Now go to OpenStreetMap.org or some changeset/node/way or relation and new buttons should show up.

You can give suggestions or report bugs either here or at https://gist.github.com/DavidKarlas/81b684dc6853f489b233715d157c145b

Happy mapping,

David

Hi, thank you for the script, it’s pretty useful !

This looks delightful, I plan to install it soon. Thank you for writing it.

I would suggest sharing your code also with https://openuserjs.org/. This will ease the installing process for users and will make it extension independent meaning that users can choose between TamperMonkey and GreaseMonkey.

Thank you!

Have you considered uploading your code to Greasyfork? Because for TamperMonkey users, the js script ecology of this website is more concentrated.

started using it yesterday after reading about it on weeklyosm, already sure i cant use osm.org without it anymore! :D

i’d love the addition of an osmcha link on a users profile with the filter pre-applied, like you are doing for changesets already.

But yeah, amazing work, thank you very much

Sylwadau gan dadavid ar 21 Tachwedd 2023 am 16:37

thank you again for the script, i edited to add an osmcha-filter-link on a users page.

Just add this after line 85 (a little ugly because of url encoding):

addButton("OSMCha", "https://osmcha.org/?filters=%7B%22date__gte%22%3A%5B%7B%22label%22%3A%22%22%2C%22value%22%3A%22%22%7D%5D%2C%22users%22%3A%5B%7B%22label%22%3A%22" + regexResult[2] + "%22%2C%22value%22%3A%22" + regexResult[2] + "%22%7D%5D%7D");

Hi all, thank you for kind words… There was recent change on OSM website that shifted buttons a bit, hence I published new 0.3.1 version to address that. I also added @dadavid suggestion to add OSMCha for users…

I didn’t get around to checking out publishing on https://openuserjs.org/ or https://greasyfork.org/… Will get to that at some point :P

Hi!
This script is amazing. I am not exaggerating when I say that I use it everyday. It saves me so much element-ID-copying-pain :)

May I request a Button for the level0-Editor when viewing a way/node/relation?

function updateThings() {  
...
addButton("level0", "https://level0.osmz.ru/?url="+ type + id);
...
}

@ayxis, sorry it took this long, but today OSM website changed which broke a bit UI with this script, hence I updated and I also added level0 link.

Best regards, David

Thanks for the update – looks great!
