For example, you can create links like:
https://geohack.toolforge.org/geohack.php?params={latitude}_N_{longitude}_Ehttps://disfactory.tw/#map={zoom}/{longitude}/{latitude}- and
https://hiking.waymarkedtrails.org/#route?id={osm_relation_id}
Please give it a try! More information is available in the respective OpenStreetMap Wiki page!

This is a great feature, thank you! I expect myself to get a lot of mileage out of the various id parameters as well as osm_user_name. :)
Is there a chance that we’ll see additional bracket parameters in the future? For example, I often find myself switching between different pages for tags (i.e. key and value somewhere in the URL) as well as keys, and this seems like it would fit the concept.

Great!
Yes, I am planning to add some other parameters like
{bbox_min_latitude}.I can also add
{osm_tag_key}and/or{osm_tag_value}if they are useful. They were actually supported in the beginning of the project, but they were only used for OpenStreetMap Wiki and Taginfo (and both these websites already have links to each other), so they were removed.Cummentu di Tordanik lu 21 July 2020 ê 20:59
I can only speak for myself, but I’d find support for tags useful. In addition to the OSM Wiki and Taginfo, I’d also use the feature for Taghistory and Overpass Turbo, and I’d probably define a few links to frequently-used Taginfo subpages for my own use as well. (Overpass is one-way, sadly – you can get there with an URL containing a key and/or value, but it instantly forwards you to a different URL.)
Would the extension be able to understand that
{osm_tag_key}can be used together with{osm_tag_value}as well as by itself? Or would there be a separate parameter for the key-only case vs. the key-of-a-tag case?Cummentu di jgpacker lu 23 July 2020 ê 18:59
Fair enough! I have added
{osm_tag_key}and{osm_tag_value}in 0.14.2. I still am struggling to understand what should be in the default list of websites, so you will need to add wiki, taginfo and so on to be able to use them:https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:{osm_tag_key}https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:{osm_tag_key}%3D{osm_tag_value}https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/{osm_tag_key}https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/tags/{osm_tag_key}={osm_tag_value}Please report any bug by a direct message or in Github. (e.g. URL encoding might be an issue at the moment).
About your question:
{osm_tag_key}can be used by itself or with any other parameters. I am trying to make this as intuitive&flexible as possible.Cummentu di Tordanik lu 24 July 2020 ê 20:11
This is awesome, thanks a lot! I’ll make sure to drop by the issue tracker if I discover any bugs. So far it works like a charm!
