OSMIUM-OUTPUT-HEADERS(5)				OSMIUM-OUTPUT-HEADERS(5)

NAME
     osmium-output-headers - Header options that can be set on output files

DESCRIPTION
     Most osmium commands that write OSM files can set values in the file header
     of the OSM file using the --output-header option.

     The  format  generally  is --output-header=OPTION=VALUE.  For some commands
     you can use the special format --output-header=OPTION! (ie.  an exclamation
     mark after the OPTION and no value set) to set the value to the same as  in
     the input file.  See the individual command man pages for where this is al-
     lowed.

HEADER OPTIONS
     generator
	    Set  the  "generator  program"  value.  Default is "osmium/VERSION".
	    Can also be set using the --generator option.  (XML  and  PBF  files
	    only.)

     xml_josm_upload
	    Value of the upload attribute on the osm XML element (true or false)
	    for use in JOSM.  (XML files only.)

     osmosis_replication_timestamp
	    Timestamp used in replication (PBF files only).

     osmosis_replication_sequence_number
	    Sequence number used in replication (PBF files only).

     osmosis_replication_base_url
	    Base URL for change files used in replication (PBF files only).

     sorting
	    Set  the  Sort.Type_then_ID  property  in  the  PBF header if set to
	    Type_then_ID.  Other values are currently not supported.  (PBF files
	    only).  Note that this only sets the header option, it does not  ac-
	    tually sort the file!  Use osmium sort for that.

EXAMPLES
     Copy the file in.osm.pbf to out.osm.pbf setting the generator to myscript:

	    osmium cat --output-header=generator=myscript -o out.osm.pbf in.osm.pbf
