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" for most image layers and some variety of JSON for Vector or Mapnik Grid providers.
- -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).
- --to-s3
-
Optional output bucket for tiles, will be populated with tiles in a standard Z/X/Y layout. Three required arguments: AWS access-key, secret, and bucket name.
- --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.
- --jsonp-callback
-
Add a JSONP callback for tiles with a json mime-type, causing "*.js" tiles to be written to the cache wrapped in the callback function. Ignored for non-JSON tiles.
