You can change the directory to download the dataset files and save the database. The default is
$HOME/.abr-geocoder
.abrg download -d (path to directory to save data)
abrg download --silent
abrg download --debug
abrg update-check
command
Checks for data updates. If there is local data, it checks for updates in the municipalities contained in the database. If new data is available, it can be downloaded.

.| format | Description | |------------|---------------------------------------------------------------| | csv | Outputs results in comma-separated csv format | | simplified | Outputs results in comma-separated csv format with limited fields | | json | Outputs results in JSON format | | ndjson | Outputs results in NDJSON format | | geojson | Outputs results in GeoJSON format | | ndgeojson | Outputs results in NDGeoJSON format |
Example:
echo "東京都町●市森野2-2-22" | abrg - --fuzzy "●"
abrg ./input.txt ./output.txt --silent
Specifies the directory to save the database. The default is
$HOME/.abr-geocoder
.abrg ./input.txt ./output.txt -d (path to directory to save data)
abrg ./input.txt ./output.txt --debug
You can change the geocoding target with the
--target
option. The default isall
.| format | Description | |-------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | all | Searches both residential address and parcel number data. The result for the residential address takes precedence. | | residential | Searches only the residential address data. | | parcel | Searches only the parcel number data. |
