Presets

iD editor preset and field types are defined in JSON files located under the data/presets folder of the iD repository.

Preset Files

Presets are defined in JSON files located under data/presets/presets. They're organized in a directory hierarchy based on OSM key/value pairs. For example, the preset that matches the tag leisure=park is in the file data/presets/presets/leisure/park.json.

Preset Schema

A basic preset is of the form:

{
    // The icon in iD which represents this feature.
    "icon": "maki-park",
    // An array of field names. See the fields documentation for details of what's valid here.
    "fields": [
        "address"
    ],
    // The geometry types for which this preset is valid.
    // options are point, area, line, and vertex.
    // vertexes are points that are parts of lines, like the nodes in a road
    // lines are unclosed ways, and areas are closed ways
    "geometry": [
        "point", "area"
    ],
    // Terms are synonyms for the preset - these are added to fuel
    // the search functionality. searching for 'woodland' will bring
    // up this 'park' preset
    "terms": [
        "esplanade",
        "village green",
        "woodland"
    ],
    // Tags that are added to the feature when selecting the preset,
    // and also used to match the preset against existing features.
    // You can use the value "*" to match any value.
    "tags": {
        "leisure": "park"
    },
    // English language display name for this map feature.
    "name": "Park"
}

The complete JSON schema for presets can be found in data/presets/schema/preset.json

Preset Properties

searchable

Deprecated or generic presets can include the property "searchable": false. This means that they will be recognized by iD when editing existing data, but will not be available as an option when adding new features.

By convention, unsearchable presets have filenames that begin with an underscore (e.g. data/presets/presets/landuse/_farm.json)

Fields

Fields are reusable form elements that can be associated with presets.

Field Files

Fields are defined in JSON files located under data/presets/fields.

The field files are typically named according to their associated OSM key. For example, the field for the tag sport=* is stored in the file data/presets/fields/sport.json. When a field has multiple versions that depend on which preset is active, we add a suffix to the filename: (sport.json, sport_ice.json, sport_racing_motor.json).

Some keys in OSM are namespaced using colons (':'). Namespaced fields are nested in folders according to their tag. For example, the field for the tag piste:difficulty=* is stored in the file data/presets/fields/piste/difficulty.json.

Field Schema

{
    "key": "cuisine",
    "type": "combo",
    "label": "Cuisine"
}

The complete JSON schema for fields can be found in data/presets/schema/field.json

Field Types

Text fields

  • text - Basic single line text field
  • number - Text field with up/down buttons for entering numbers (e.g. width=*)
  • localized - Text field with localization abilities (e.g. name=*, name:es=*, etc.)
  • tel - Text field for entering phone numbers (localized for editing location)
  • email - Text field for entering email addresses
  • url - Text field for entering URLs
  • textarea - Multi-line text area (e.g. description=*)

Combo/Dropdown fields

  • combo - Dropdown field for picking one option out of many (e.g. surface=*)
  • typeCombo - Dropdown field picking a specific type from a generic category key
    (e.g. waterway=*. If unset, tag will be waterway=yes, but dropdown contains options like stream, ditch, river)
  • multiCombo - Dropdown field for adding yes values to a common multikey
    (e.g. recycling:* -> recycling:glass=yes, recycling:paper=yes, etc.)
  • networkCombo - Dropdown field that helps users pick a route network tag (localized for editing location)
  • semiCombo - Dropdown field for adding multiple values to a semicolon-delimited list
    (e.g. sport=* -> soccer;lacrosse;athletics;field_hockey)

Checkboxes

  • check - 3-state checkbox: yes, no, unknown (no tag)
  • defaultCheck - 2-state checkbox where checked produces yes and unchecked produces no tag
  • onewayCheck - 3-state checkbox for oneway fields, with extra button for direction switching

Radio Buttons

  • radio - Multiple choice radio button field
  • structureRadio - Multiple choice structure radio button field, with extra input for bridge/tunnel level

Special

  • access - Block of dropdowns for defining the access=* tags on a highway
  • address - Block of text and dropdown fields for entering address information (localized for editing location)
  • cycleway - Block of dropdowns for adding cycleway:left and cycleway:right tags on a highway
  • maxspeed - Numeric text field for speed and dropdown for "mph/kph"
  • restrictions - Graphical field for editing turn restrictions
  • wikipedia - Block of fields for selecting a wiki language and Wikipedia page

Field Properties

key/keys

The key property names the OSM key that the field will edit. Compound fields like address expect an array of keys in the keys property.

universal

If a field definition contains the property "universal": true, this field will appear in the "Add Field" list for all presets

geometry

If specified, only show the field for this kind of geometry. Should contain one of point, vertex, line, area.

default

The default value for the field. For example, the building_area.json field will automatically add the tag building=yes to certain presets that are associated with building features (but only if drawn as a closed area).

{
    "key": "building",
    "type": "combo",
    "default": "yes",
    "geometry": "area",
    "label": "Building"
}
options

Combo field types can provide dropdown values in an options array. The user can pick from any of the options, or type their own value.

{
    "key": "diaper",
    "type": "combo",
    "label": "Diaper Changing Available",
    "options": ["yes", "no", "room", "1", "2", "3", "4", "5"]
}
strings

Combo field types can accept name-value pairs in the strings property. This is helpful when the field has a fixed number of options and you want to be able to provide a translatable description of each option. When using strings, the user can not type their own value, they must choose one of the given values.

{
    "key": "smoothness",
    "type": "combo",
    "label": "Smoothness",
    "placeholder": "Thin Rollers, Wheels, Off-Road...",
    "strings": {
        "options": {
            "excellent": "Thin Rollers: rollerblade, skateboard",
            "good": "Thin Wheels: racing bike",
            "intermediate": "Wheels: city bike, wheelchair, scooter",
            "bad": "Robust Wheels: trekking bike, car, rickshaw",
            "very_bad": "High Clearance: light duty off-road vehicle",
            "horrible": "Off-Road: heavy duty off-road vehicle",
            "very_horrible": "Specialized off-road: tractor, ATV",
            "impassable": "Impassable / No wheeled vehicle"
        }
    }
}

If a combo field does not specify options or strings, the field will fetch common tag values from the Taginfo service to use as dropdown values.

snake_case

For combo fields, spaces are replaced with underscores in the tag value if snake_case is true. The default is true.

caseSensitive

For combo fields, case-sensitve field values are allowed if caseSensitive is true. The default is false.

min_value

For number fields, the lowest valid value. There is no default.

max_value

For number fields, the greatest valid value. There is no default.

Icons

You can use any of the following open source map icon sets as preset icons.

When specifying an icon, use the prefixed version of the name, for example "icon": "maki-park".

Building

To build presets, all you need to do is run npm run build.

The following files are autogenerated and will be replaced when rebuilding:

  • data/presets/categories.json
  • data/presets/fields.json
  • data/presets/presets.json
  • data/presets.yaml
  • data/taginfo.json
  • dist/locales/en.json

Custom Presets

iD supports deployments which use a custom set of presets. You can supply presets via the presets accessor:

var id = iD.Context().presets({
    presets: { ... },
    fields: { ... },
    defaults: { ... },
    categories: { ... }
});

All four parts (presets, fields, defaults, and categories) must be supplied. In addition, several base presets and fields must be included.

Basic geometric presets must be included so that every feature matches at least one preset. For example:

"area": {
    "name": "Area",
    "tags": {},
    "geometry": ["area"],
    "matchScore": 0.1
},
"line": {
    "name": "Line",
    "tags": {},
    "geometry": ["line"],
    "matchScore": 0.1
},
"point": {
    "name": "Point",
    "tags": {},
    "geometry": ["point"],
    "matchScore": 0.1
},
"vertex": {
    "name": "Other",
    "tags": {},
    "geometry": ["vertex"],
    "matchScore": 0.1
},
"relation": {
    "name": "Relation",
    "tags": {},
    "geometry": ["relation"],
    "matchScore": 0.1
}

A "name" field must be included:

"name": {
    "key": "name",
    "type": "localized",
    "label": "Name",
    "placeholder": "Common name (if any)"
}
