Validator does not know many relation-types

[skyper]

Validator does not know type=site, associatedStreet, TMC, bridge and other either common used or approved relations-types. Instead you get a warning about an unknown relation-type.

Actually JOSM startup page already tells you about that fact. You can help by providing new entries or the relation presets menu.

The way the presets work in JOSM right now, I rather clone an existing relation or manually create the relation, which is much faster than using presets.

I also get a warning from the validator for type=waterway, altough this entry is recognized in the relation view and translated to "Gewässer".
How exactly can I provide new entries for the relation presets menu?

[stoecker]

See data/defaultpresets.xml. At the beginning is the description, ad the end the relations. Basically you need to specify a block which contains the tags and one with the roles of a relation:

Example for multipolygon:

        <item name="Multipolygon" icon="presets/empty.png" type="relation">
            <link href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Relation:multipolygon"
                  de.href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/DE:Relation:multipolygon"
                  fr.href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/FR:Relation:multipolygon" />
            <label text="Edit Multipolygon" />
            <key key="type" value="multipolygon" />
            <optional>
                <text key="name" text="Name" default="" delete_if_empty="true" />
            </optional>
            <roles>
                <role key="outer" text="outer segment" requisite="required" type="way" />
                <role key="inner" text="inner segment" requisite="optional" type="way" />
            </roles>
        </item>

BTW: What a type of relation should "type=waterway" be?

[bundesrainer]

Thanks. The waterway relation type is for rivers, canals:

Though still a proposal it is already used for many rivers:

Ticket #6080 (Relation type Enforcement is unknown but it's official) has been marked as a duplicate of this ticket.

Ticket #7044 (Do not warn about relations with role=house as member of associatedStreet) has been marked as a duplicate of this ticket.

[simon04]

type=network and type=associatedStreet have been added in r3544.

[simon04]

In [4651/josm]:

see #5218 - add several relation presets: type={site,enforcement,route_master,street,destination_sign,waterway}

[simon04]

IMHO, TMC cannot be handled by a preset in JOSM as it requires varying keys (e.g. TMC:cid_58:tabcd_1:LocationCode=1234).

[simon04]

In [4653/josm]:

see #5218 - add several relation presets: type={bridge,tunnel}

[simon04]

If I see it correctly, from the frequent used relation types, there are (only) a few from the Oxomoa scheme missing (stop_area, stop_area_group, line, …).

Ticket #6265 has been marked as a duplicate of this ticket.

[stoecker]

These checkins should have waited until after release. Now the translations are incomplete again.

[simon04]

Sorry … However, now the presets are more complete and the validator less falsely verbose. :-)

I was more concerned about common relations not about Oxomoa speciales.

I thought there is a plugin for this scheme.
Does Validator include values from plugins ?

Anyway, I think we can close this ticket and either reopen it or open a new ticket if it is needed.

Thanks.

As far as I know, the validator makes use of any active presets.
