Run https://github.com/komoot/photon 0.2.2 in a docker container.
Uses phusion/baseimage (Ubuntu 14.04). Requires a running nominatim for data import. It is built to work together with https://registry.hub.docker.com/u/helvalius/nominatim-docker-development/ . The embedded ES database is not exposed as volumes and thus data is removed if container is removed.
To rebuild the image locally execute
docker build -t photon .
By default the container exposes port 2322 as web port, links nominatim.
To run the container execute
docker run -p 2322:2322 --link nominatim_container:nominatim -ti photon
Connect to the webserver with curl. If this succeeds, open http://localhost:2322/ in a web browser
curl "http://localhost:2322/api?q=berlin"
