View source for Scripts Discussion View history

The Waze community has created the following plugins/extensions/addons for use in the Waze web-based environments. 
See [[#browsers| browser requirements and instructions]].

Please be aware that these scripts commonly require updates in order to properly work after new releases of the Waze products. While some may update automatically once their authors make changes, others may require manual updating on your part.


== {{Anchor|browsers}}Browser requirements==


=== {{Anchor|Chrome}}Chrome / Blink / Opera Next ===
You might need to enable '''Developer Mode''' on your browser.
* If a download is available from the Chrome Web Store, choose that.
* Without an [[#Monkey|add-on]] to manage scripts, simply download the script file (.js) or Chrome executable package (CRX).  Then drag and drop the file into the Chrome Extensions Tab [chrome://extensions] of the browser.
* Install [[#Monkey|''TamperMonkey'' or equivalent]].

=== {{Anchor|Firefox}}Firefox / Mozilla ===
* Install [[#Monkey|''GreaseMonkey'']].

=== Internet Explorer ===
* Install [[#Monkey|''GreaseMonkey'' or equivalent]].

=== Safari ===
* Install script as an extension.
* Install [[#WazeBar|''WazeBar for Safari'']].

=== {{Anchor|Monkey}}GreaseMonkey or TamperMonkey add-on for script management ===
The easiest way to load and manage add-on scripts is with [http://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/greasemonkey/ ''Greasemonkey''], [http://tampermonkey.net/ ''TamperMonkey''], or an equivalent browser add-on for script management.  When you install a user script, the script manager catalogs it and automatically runs it anytime  any page for which it is declared is loaded by your browser.

=== {{Anchor |Highlights for Landmarks and Segments}}WME Color Highlights (WMECH) ===
by [[User:Timbones|Timbones]]

This script adds color highlighting to segments and landmarks according to their status and type or other criteria. The highlighting of segments is likely to be most useful, for it shows locked and nameless roads.  [[Traffic lock]]s highlight is available where applicable.

=== WME Highlighter City ===
by [[User:AlexN-114|AlexN-114]]

Highlighter City (HiLiCi) is a derivative of WME Color Highlights v. 1.7.2.  It checks for some countries (Austria, Switzerland, Germany, Liechtenstein, Norway, Australia, France, Mexico and Italy) the correctness of the content of the city field.
If you want this feature for your country, [http://www.waze.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=819&t=78774 ask].

Please note that this conflicts with WME Color Highlights; both should NOT be active at the same time.

=== {{anchor|UR_Overview_Plus}}UR Overview Plus (URO+) ===
<!-- Anchor from [[Community Plugins - obsolete]] -->
by [[User:Twister-UK|Twister-UK]]

* URO+ adds a '''URO+''' tab in the left-hand panel to provide various filtering options to show/hide update requests, map problem, and camera markers according to type, age, comment keyword, etc.
* For any UR markers where a conversation is taking place, the marker is modified to show a small quote icon in place of the Waze icon.  The quotes are on a green background or if you have commented on the UR, a yellow background.  Optionally, a small circle with the count of comments can be shown too.
* For any markers that are visible, hovering the mouse pointer over the marker generates a pop-up which contains a summary of the marker information and some marker-type specific actions (e.g., opening an update request in a new tab, deleting a camera).

* Optional functionality (Go to subtab '''Misc''', "Enable integrated scripts"):
** Functionality from DrivesTabEnhancer (DTE) script:
**: Modifies the '''Drives''' tab in the left-hand panel to show more drives per sub-page (up to the WME limit of 50/page), and to inform the user which drives are available to view on the map as a route trail.  Although Waze stores the drive summaries (date, distance, etc) for every drive ever made, it stores the actual route data only for the most recent drives.
** Functionality from Select Roundabout Segments (SRS) script.
**: Adds a '''Select roundabout''' button to the segment edit panel when a single segment from a roundabout is selected. Clicking the button selects the entire roundabout. Note that if the entire roundabout doesn't get selected, it probably means the roundabout itself is broken.

=== WME layout tweaking user style ===
by [[User:CrazyTerabyte|CrazyTerabyte]]

This is a custom stylesheet that tweaks the Waze Map Editor layout to reduce the amount of white-space and increase the editable area.

Custom stylesheets require that you first install the ''Stylish'' add-on. (Get [http://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/fjnbnpbmkenffdnngjfgmeleoegfcffe ''Stylish'' for Chrome] or [http://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/stylish/?src=external-userstyleshome ''Stylish'' for Firefox]).

== Map Editing ==
=== WME Junction Node Fixer (JNF) ===
by [[User:bgodette|bgodette]]

Junction Node Fixer has several features. The primary focus of JNF is that it overloads the 'q' (disallowAllTurns) [[keyboard shortcut]] to preserve existing turn restrictions. 'Overloading' means that it takes over all functionality of the 'q' hotkey only. The 'q' keyboard shortcut performs the following actions
* Fixes any self and reverse connectivity issues
* Fixes closed loop roads (by splitting into two segments with a joining junction)
* Terminates dead-ends with a junction
* Makes dead-ends two-way (only if both ends of the segment are visible)
* Sets the Type of a roundabouts using lowest of two highest rule and sets country/state if needed
* For UK sets Type of roundabouts using highest type excluding Freeway rule.
* Does a traditional 'qw' (clears reverse connectivity, and locks turns)
* Causes the turn arrows to refresh (the side effect of 's' but without the shifting).

Since you end up with the same turns restricted, that means you need to press 'w' if you really want all turns allowed. This is why it overloads 'q' instead of 'w'. Ultimately this will be a separate hotkey that's editable through WME's '?' interface.

JNF also:
* Saves the state of WME's ShowAllTurns, ShowTurns, and Full-screen mode across Refresh/F5/Permalink.
* Forces data model reload after successful save.

This has been tested only in Chrome; it has been reported to work in Firefox with GreaseMonkey.

=== Roundabout Angles and Landmark ===
by [[User:davipt|davipt]]

Roundabout Angles and Landmark is a script with two features:
* selecting a roundabout node, on the left side there is a button to automatically create a "junction" landmark around the landmark. Roundabout segments shall not have street name set, but the roundabout name should be added to this landmark in the middle, so the label appears horizontally.
* selecting a roundabout node, on the left side there is a button to create a temporary landmark in the form of a leaf, which will denote the approximate 90º, 180º and 270º range that Waze uses to switch from the "take the nth exit" to the "straight ahead/turn left/turn right" on roundabouts with two to four connections.

If the created landmark is not round, it means the roundabout has something screwed up, usually a reversed A->B segment, so it also helps ensuring proper roundabouts.

=== {{anchor|Waze Aerial Shifter}}WME Aerial Shifter (WAS) ===
by [[User:byo|byo]]; patched and packaged by [[User:berestovskyy|berestovskyy]]

[[Image:WAS.jpg|right|link=]]
This script helps you adjust the position of underlying satellite imagery to work on road alignment inside WME. Generally the GPS points layer will be displayed on the map at a location parallel to the visual roadway. Adjust the setting until the GPS points are aligned with the visual map. Different sections of the map may or may not have this same amount of misalignment, so it is best to use this same technique in other areas before you use the same offset as a prior area.

'''Before downloading a new version, uninstall or disable all previous versions of this script.'''

=== Street to River PLUS ===
by [[User:EduardoCarvajal|EduardoCarvajal]] based on [[User:aeytom|aeytom]] script 

[[image:street-created-selected-and-named.png|thumb|Street created, selected and named]]
[[image:created-river-after-helper-street-deleted.png|thumb|River created and helper street deleted]]

The script is designed as a helper for creating river/railroad landmarks for the free Waze navigation system. The script transforms the geometry of a new unsaved street to a river or railroad landmark. You can predefine the width and the name for the new landmark in the form of a special street name. 

'''Mini how-to:'''

'''To add a new river:'''
* Install this script and go to WME.
* Draw a new street but do not save the street.
* Add and apply a street name to define the rivers name and width. This step is optional.
: Example: ''20m Spree'' creates a 20 meters wide river named ''Spree''
* Select the helper street.
* Click the '''Street to river''' or '''Street to railroad''' button.
* Delete the helper street.
* Edit the new landmark as you like. You can even set the landmark to another type. [http://world.waze.com/livemap/?zoom=9&lat=52.45873&lon=6.17407 Here it is used] to mark a railroad, using landmark type 'other'.

'''To expand an existing river:'''
* Draw a new Street that starts inside an existing river, but do not save the Street.
* '''Make sure that you see on map the begining of the Street''' (the instersection point of the street and the river)
* Select the helper Street.
* Click the "Street to river" button.
* Delete the helper Street.
* Edit the new landmark as you like.

Examples of rivers created by the script are [https://www.waze.com/editor/?zoom=3&lat=9.61618&lon=-82.84518&layers=1445&env=row&landmarks=1836066 Sixaola River] and [https://www.waze.com/editor/?zoom=0&lat=9.53565&lon=-83.10199&layers=1445&env=row&landmarks=2095946 Telire River].

===Road Type Calculator===
by [[User:Edsonajj|edsonajj]] (Edson Jiménez)

This is a calculator meant as an aid to classify roads, specially when faced with routing issues or difficulties on applying the current classification found on the wiki.

The current version is only designed to work for Mexico, but anyone interested in adapting it to another country can contact [[User:Edsonajj|edsonajj]] and work together in developing a version for another country.

The extension is currently available for the four major browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer and Safari).

=== Geocaching ===
by [[User:davipt|davipt]]

''Geocaching-Waze bookmarklet'' is a iOS Safari bookmarklet that allows driving to a given Geocaching coordinate. It assumes a fixed flow within iOS and the official Geocaching client, but it could be adapted to other situations.

Open the iOS Geocaching app, pick up a cache, click on '''Open on external map''', which will open Google Maps on the browser. From this page, click on the bookmarklet which will display the lat+lon; then open Waze on that point, ready to drive there.
