NAME¶
tilestache-seed - seed a single layer in your TileStache configuration
SYNOPSIS¶
tilestache-seed [
options]
zoom...
DESCRIPTION¶
This manual page documents briefly the
tilestache-seed command.
tilestache-seed seeds a single layer in your TileStache configuration. No
images are returned, but TileStache ends up with a pre-filled cache. Bounding
box is given as a pair of lat/lon coordinates, e.g. "37.788 -122.349
37.833 -122.246". Output is a list of tile paths as they are created.
Configuration, BBox, and Layer options are required.
REQUIRED OPTIONS¶
- -c, --config file
- Path to configuration file. Required.
- -l, --layer layer
- Layer name from configuration. Required.
- -b, --bbox south west north
east
- Bounding box in floating point geographic coordinates.
Required.
OPTIONS¶
- -h, --help
- Show summary of options.
- -p, --padding padding
- Extra margin of tiles to add around bounded area. Default value is 0 (no
extra tiles).
- -e, --extension extension
- Optional file type for rendered tiles. Default value is
"png".
- -f, --progress-file file
- Optional JSON progress file that gets written on each iteration, so you
don't have to pay close attention.
- -q
- Suppress chatty output, --progress-file works well with this.
- -i, --include-path
- Add the following colon-separated list of paths to Python's include path
(aka sys.path).
- -d, --output-directory
- Optional output directory for tiles, to override configured cache with the
equivalent of:
{"name": "Disk", "path": <output
directory>, "dirs": "portable", "gzip":
[]}.
More information in http://tilestache.org/doc/#caches.
- --to-mbtiles
- Optional output file for tiles, will be created as an MBTiles 1.1 tileset.
See http://mbtiles.org for more information.
- --from-mbtiles
- Optional input file for tiles, will be read as an MBTiles 1.1 tileset. See
http://mbtiles.org for more information. Overrides --extension, --bbox and
--padding (this may change).
- --tile-list
- Optional file of tile coordinates, a simple text list of Z/X/Y
coordinates. Overrides --bbox and --padding.
- --error-list
- Optional file of failed tile coordinates, a simple text list of Z/X/Y
coordinates. If provided, failed tiles will be logged to this file instead
of stopping tilestache-seed.
- --enable-retries
- If true this will cause tilestache-seed to retry failed tile renderings up
to (3) times. Default value is False.
- -x, --ignore-cached
- Re-render every tile, whether it is in the cache already or not.
