## Historique du projet et usages

libpostal-rest is a small Go REST service that exposes libpostal address parsing and expansion over HTTP. Its history is best understood as a deployment wrapper around the larger libpostal geospatial NLP library.

### Historique du projet

The repository documents a Go 1.13+ build, HTTP endpoints for parsing, expansion, and combined expand-and-parse calls, and environment-variable configuration for listen address, logging, and Prometheus metrics. Its go.mod file depends on openvenues/gopostal, the Go binding for libpostal.

### Historique d'adoption

The package has a narrow adoption story: it makes libpostal easier to run as a service when callers do not want to link directly to C or language bindings. The related libpostal project has broader adoption for normalizing and parsing international street addresses from open data.

### Modes d'utilisation

Operators run `libpostal-rest` as an HTTP service, then send address strings to `/parser`, `/expand`, or `/expandparser`. Environment variables configure the bind host, port, log format, log level, and optional Prometheus metrics endpoint.

### Pourquoi les passionnés de paquets s'y intéressent

The package is useful because libpostal itself has a heavy native build and large model-data footprint. A REST wrapper turns that local native dependency into a network service that other applications can consume with plain HTTP.

### Chronologie

- 2022-06-17: The GitHub repository lists a public release around this date.
- 2022: The README documents Prometheus metrics and structured logging configuration for the service.

### Related projects

- libpostal is the core C address-normalization and parsing library.
- gopostal is the Go binding used by libpostal-rest.
