Pelias import all throws errors when installing pelias in docker locally

Hi,
I’m trying to install pelias locally with data for London. I’m following the instructions for a local docker install here:
https:// github com pelias docker
I can follow the instructions to get the portland-metro running just fine.

However, when I run the command “pelias import all” I get the following error. Can anyone help me with whats going wrong please?:

/code/pelias/whosonfirst/node_modules/pelias-blacklist-stream/parser.js:11
    throw new Error( 'file not found' );
    ^
Error: file not found

    at Object.<anonymous> (/code/pelias/whosonfirst/import.js:16:9)

I’m trying to create my own custom project for London as there isn’t one provided. To this end, I’ve created my own pelias.json file (to follow in a follow up post)

Any and all help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

Thanks. I hadn’t noticed it had an issues section! Thanks for the heads up. I may however, have fixed it (not 100% sure yet as the build is still running), but my pelias.json file had a rogue section in it pointing to blacklist file i didnt have

“blacklist”: {
“files”: [
“/data/blacklist/osm.txt”
]
}

I changed this to

“blacklist”: {
“files”: [
]
}

and the error seems to have gone away! I’m providing this update in case it helps anyone else.
