#tegola-postgis

THIS IS NOW PART OF MAIN LINE OF TEGOLA. V0.12.x branch has this support. Please, use that instead of this one.

This is an experiment to see how to integrate ST_AsMVT into Tegola.

The main feature of this fork is the addition of mvt data providers. These data providers cannot be conflated.

Build Status Report Card Coverage Status Godoc license

tegola-postgis is a vector tile server delivering Mapbox Vector Tiles with support for PostGIS and GeoPackage data providers. User documentation can be found at tegola.io

Features

  • Native geometry processing (simplification, clipping, make valid, intersection, contains, scaling, translation)
  • Mapbox Vector Tile v2 specification compliant.
  • Embedded viewer with auto generated style for quick data visualization and inspection.
  • Support for PostGIS and GeoPackage data providers. Extensible design to support additional data providers.
  • Support for several cache backends: file, s3, redis, azure blob store.
  • Cache seeding and invalidation via individual tiles (ZXY), lat / lon bounds and ZXY tile list.
  • Parallelized tile serving and geometry processing.
  • Support for Web Mercator (3857) and WGS84 (4326) projections.
  • Support for AWS Lambda.
  • Support for Data Providers that can generate MVT directly. Currenly postgis's ST_AsMVT. This is an experimental feature in tegola-postgis that may be backported to tegola. Additional details can be found here.

Running tegola as a vector tile server

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

Server Endpoints

/

The server root will display a built in viewer with an auto generated style. For example:

tegola built in viewer

/maps/:map_name/:z/:x/:y

Return vector tiles for a map. The URI supports the following variables:

  • :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.
/maps/:map_name/:layer_name/:z/:x/:y

Return vector tiles for a map layer. The URI supports the same variables as the map URI with the additional variable:

  • :layer_name is the name of the map layer as defined in the config.toml file.
/capabilities

Return a JSON encoded list of the server's configured maps and layers with various attributes.

/capabilities/:map_name

Return TileJSON details about the map.

/maps/:map_name/style.json

Return an auto generated Mapbox GL Style for the configured map.

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 data provider layers and their min_zoom and max_zoom values are defined. Optionally, default_tags can be setup which will be encoded into the layer. If the same tags are returned from a data provider, the data provider's values will take precedence.

* more on PostgreSQL SSL mode here. The postgis config also supports "ssl_cert" and "ssl_key" options are required, corresponding semantically with "PGSSLKEY" and "PGSSLCERT". These options do not check for environment variables automatically. See the section below on injecting environment variables into the config.

Environment Variables

Config TOML

Environment variables can be injected into the configuration file. One caveat is that the injection has to be within a string, though the value it represents does not have to be a string.

The above config example could be written as:

# register data providers
[[providers]]
name = "test_postgis"
type = "postgis"
host = "${POSTGIS_HOST}"    # postgis database host (required)
port = "${POSTGIS_PORT}"    # recall this value must be an int
database = "${POSTGIS_DB}"
user = "tegola"
password = ""
srid = 3857
max_connections = "${POSTGIS_MAX_CONN}"
SQL Debugging

The following environment variables can be used for debugging:

TEGOLA_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
$ TEGOLA_SQL_DEBUG=LAYER_SQL tegola serve --config=/path/to/conf.toml

The following environment variables can be used to control various runtime options:

TEGOLA_OPTIONS specify a set of options comma or space delimited. Supports the following options

  • DontSimplifyGeo to turn off simplification for all layers.
  • SimplifyMaxZoom={{int}} to set the max zoom that simplification will apply to. (14 is default)

Client side debugging

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.x to compile from source. (We support the three newest versions of Go.) To build tegola from source, make sure you have Go installed and have cloned the repository to your $GOPATH. Navigate to the repository then run the following commands:

cd cmd/tegola/
go build

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

Build Flags The following build flags can be used to turn off certain features of tegola:

  • noAzblobCache - turn off the Azure Blob cache back end.
  • noS3Cache - turn off the AWS S3 cache back end.
  • noRedisCache - turn off the Redis cache back end.
  • noPostgisProvider - turn off the PostGIS data provider.
  • noGpkgProvider - turn off the GeoPackage data provider. Note, GeoPackage uses CGO and will be turned off if the environment variable CGO_ENABLED=0 is set prior to building.
  • noViewer - turn off the built in viewer.
  • pprof - enable Go profiler. Start profile server by setting the environment TEGOLA_HTTP_PPROF_BIND environment (e.g. TEGOLA_HTTP_PPROF_BIND=localhost:6060).

Example of using the build flags to turn of the Redis cache back end, the GeoPackage provider and the built in viewer.

go build -tags 'noRedisCache noGpkgProvider noViewer'

Turning off CGO Tegola uses CGO for certain functionality (i.e. GeoPackge support). To build tegola without CGO use the following command:

CGO_ENABLED=0 go build
