The following snippet is how to alias a task name in Gradle:

build.gradle

    task alias {
        dependsOn allprojects.collect { proj ->
            proj.tasks.matching {
                it.name == 'taskToAlias'

Here are the steps needed to run a self hosted Open Street Map server (using Docker):

1. Download desired pbf files (like south-carolina-latest.osm.pbf) from https://download.geofabrik.de or just use the following empty planet below:

   
     <?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
     <osm version="0.6" generator="osmconvert 0.8.8" timestamp="2019-10-23T20:18:02Z">
       <bounds minlat="42.4276" minlon="1.412368" maxlat="42.65717" maxlon="1.787481"/>
     </osm>

Here are the steps needed to convert an image (like JPG or TIF) to MBTiles using GDAL:

1. Download and install GDAL (https://gdal.org/, https://anaconda.org/conda-forge/gdal):

      conda install -c conda-forge gdal
   

   Installing GDAL is kind of a pain in the ass, especially on Windows. I'm assuming you'll be able to work out whatever issues you run into here.

2. Download example jpg and tif map images we can work with:

   • http://www.radcyberzine.com/xglobe/index.html#maps - See Super-hi-res maps section, download one of the jpg files.

1. Looking at your instance info, find VNIC section, click "Public Subnet".
2. Click on your security list.
3. Add a new entry with the following options:

• "Stateless" = No, "Source" = 0.0.0.0/0, "IP Protocol" = TCP, "Source Port Range" = All, "Destination Port Range" = 80

4. SSH to your instance.
5. While SSH'ed in your instance, run command firewall-cmd --permanent --add-service=http.
6. While SSH'ed in your instance, run command firewall-cmd --reload.
7. Now start Apache, NGINX, or whatever server you need to on port 80. You can now access from the internet.
