Tegola

Build Status Godoc license

Tegola is a high performance vector tile server delivering Mapbox Vector Tiles leveraging PostGIS as the data provider.

Near term goals

  • Support for transcoding WKB to MVT.
  • Support for /z/x/y web mapping URL scheme.
  • Support for PostGIS data provider.

Running Tegola

  1. Download the appropriate binary of tegola for your platoform via the release page.
  2. Setup your config file and run. Tegola expects a config.toml to be in the same directory as the binary. You can set a different location for the config.toml using a command flag:
./tegola --config=/path/to/config.toml

URL Scheme

Tegola uses the following URL scheme:

/maps/:map_name/:z/:x/:y
  • :map_name is the name of the map as defined in the config.toml file.
  • :z is the zoom level of the map.
  • :x is the row of the tile at the zoom level.
  • :y is the column of the tile at the zoom level.
Additional endpoints
/capabilities

Will return a JSON encoded list of the server's configured maps and layers with various attributes. An example response:

{
	"maps": [{
		"name": "zoning",
		"uri": "/maps/zoning",
		"layers": [{
			"name": "landuse",
			"minZoom": 12,
			"maxZoom": 16
		}]
	}]
}

Configuration

The tegola config file uses the TOML format. The following example shows how to configure a PostGIS data provider with two layers. The first layer includes a tablename, geometry_field and an id_field. The second layer uses a custom sql statement instead of the tablename property.

Under the maps section, map layers are associated with dataprovider layers and their min_zoom and max_zoom values are defined. Optionally, custom_tags can be setup which will be encoded into the layer. If the same tags are returned from a data provider, the dataprovider's values will take precidence.

Command flags

Tegola currently supports the following command flags:

  • config - Location of config file in TOML format. Can be absolute, relative or remote over http(s).
  • port - Port for the webserver to bind to. i.e. :8080
  • log-file - Path to write webserver access logs
  • log-format - The format that the logger will log with. Available fields:
    • {{.Time}} : The current Date Time in RFC 2822 format.
    • {{.RequestIP}} : The IP address of the the requester.
    • {{.Z}} : The Zoom level.
    • {{.X}} : The X Coordinate.
    • {{.Y}} : The Y Coordinate.

Debugging

Environment Variables

The following environment variables can be used for debugging the tegola server:

SQL_DEBUG specify the type of SQL debug information to output. Currently support two values:

  • LAYER_SQL: print layer SQL as they are parsed from the config file.
  • EXECUTE_SQL: print SQL that is executed for each tile request and the number of items it returns or an error.
Usage
$ SQL_DEBUG=LAYER_SQL tegola --config=/path/to/conf.toml
Client side

When debugging client side, it's often helpful to to see an outline of a tile along with it's Z/X/Y values. To encode a debug layer into every tile add the query string variable debug=true to the URL template being used to request tiles. For example:

http://localhost:8080/maps/mymap/{z}/{x}/{y}.vector.pbf?debug=true

The requested tile will be encode a layer with the name value set to debug and include two features:

  • debug_outline: a line feature that traces the border of the tile
  • debug_text: a point feature in the middle of the tile with the following tags:
    • zxy: a string with the Z, X and Y values formatted as: Z:0, X:0, Y:0

Building from source

Tegola is written in Go and requires Go 1.7+ to compile from source. To build tegola from source, make sure you have Go installed and have cloned the repository to your $GOPATH or $GOROOT. Navigate to the repository then run the following commands:

cd cmd/tegola/
go build -o tegola *.go

You will now have a binary named tegola in the current directory which is ready for running.
