Using custom OSRM-Backend with maplibre-gl-directions

[deancochran]

Hey there!

I've recently begun a side project in which I wanted to use Sveltekit, Maplibre, and OSRM to build a similar app like BRouter. I stumbled on this repo and was pleasantly surprised with how much has been implemented. I also attempted to join the slack community for Maplibre, but the documentation link to join is expired. So I have been toying with the capabilities of the package for a few weeks or so.

I'll leave my question here for now but will continue to work on my learning.

Is there a way to adjust the routing engine to use a custom OSRM routing engine? I have managed to structure a docker container to expose the localhost on port 5000. I'm able to receive directions from the engine by calling the backend (GET http:localhost:5000/route/v1), and I want to use maplibre to display the routes generated from my osrm backend.

https://slack.openstreetmap.us should work. Can you update the readme in a pull request?

Hello, @deancochran.

If I understood your question correctly, you just need to set the api and profile options in accordance with your needs.
