NAME¶

tirex-master - tirex master daemon

SYNOPSIS¶

tirex-master [OPTIONS]

OPTIONS¶

-h, --help

Display help message.

-d, --debug

Run in debug mode. You'll see the actual messages sent and received and other debug messages.

-f, --foreground

Run in foreground. E.g. when started from systemd service

-c, --config=DIR

DESCRIPTION¶

The tirex master process gets requests for metatiles from mod_tile and other sources, queues them and sends them on to the rendering backends. It has a sophisticated queueing and rendering manager that decides what is to be rendered when.

Unless the --debug option is given, tirex-master will detach from the terminal.

/etc/tirex/renderer/*.conf

/etc/tirex/renderer/*/*.conf

/var/log/tirex/jobs.log
