switch2osm.org has instructions on setting up tile servers, and frequently mentions ways to load smaller extracts only.

Check out this step-by-step guide: https://switch2osm.org/serving-tiles/manually-building-a-tile-server-14-04/

When you come to "Loading data into your server" do not choose the planet.osm file but a country extract (e.g. http://download.geofabrik.de/asia/india-latest.osm.pbf for India) and adjust the filenames correspondingly.

For users who are looking for such requirement. Here is simple solution to create all openstreetmap tiles for a single country osm-for-my-country. osm-for-my-country is a stack of all OSM related packages and has many scripts/commands for all tasks on a Linux machine. These are the tasks which can be achieved by this package:

  • Install all necessary software like osm2pgsql, postgres, mapnik, kosmtik etc

  • Download your country data

  • Download and install map style openstreetmap-carto

  • Create all tiles for your country

  • Update tiles on daily basis

  • Serve tiles with node.js or you can serve these offline map tiles with any simple http serevr or apache
