[OSM-dev] Finding closet node for PyrouteLib?

Hello all!

I'm new to OSM and am glad to be a part of the community! I posted the
following question on the newbies thread and was told to post it here
instead.

I have an application that has many addresses that I have geocoded. I am
trying to use Pyroutelib (see here:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/PyrouteLib) to find routing distances
from one address to another. It seems that the library does not accept
lat/lon (from the addresses I geocoded) as an input and only does node to
node routing. I thought I should then try to find the closet node to my
lat/lon position for my address, then send that node in to Pyroutelib for
routing.

Any suggestions as to how to do this? Is there something simple that I
haven't thought of?
Thanks all!
