Is there a possibility to query a local Overpass db? #94

Hi,

is there a possibility to query a local .osm copy of data? Can I make the Overpass API to switch to local a db? Therefore not to make HTTP requests over the internet?

Thanks!

I am afraid this is not possible. The library requires a running server which parses and processes the query. However, you could run a local Overpass instance using your files. For more information about the installation procedure see here.
