Offline OSM and R

Viewed 1380

I would like to have openstreetmap with offline capabilities. Specifically, I would like to know if it is possible (which I think it is) to geocode a certain adress without using an API. The reason for this is simple, if I have hundreds of thousands of addresses to geocode, it will take forever. I already have the shapefiles, and I know you can download the OSM backend, but I don't know how to "make" R call the offline version of OSM...

Any help would be appreciated.
