Minetest Tiler

An easy wrapper for Minetest Mapper generating tiles for web.

The output can be used with Leaflet.

Use

Choose the strategy you prefer between complete periodic generation and cached on-demand generation:

Python generator

Runs minetestmapper once for a given part of the map. You can run it with cron. You also need an external webserver (e.g. Apache, Nginx) to serve the generated tiles.

Dependencies:

Python3
Python-PIL
minetestmapper
Colors.txt (optional -- more complete colorset)

Edit the settings in mtmapper.py according to your configuration.

python3 mtmapper.py

Depending on the world and the settings (number of zoom levels, number of blocks), it may take a while.

Rust mapserver

A program that runs minetestserver automatically and serves cached tiles through an included webserver. You can run it as a daemon.

Dependencies:

Rust (minimal toolchain is enough) (for building only)
minetestmapper
Colors.txt (optional -- more complete colorset)

cd mapserver
cargo build --release
./target/release/mapserver --help
# Example with arguments:
./target/release/mapserver -w /var/games/minetest-server/.minetest/worlds/juneland-survival/ -p /home/tuxmain/minetestmapper/minetestmapper -- --drawalpha --max-y 2000 --colors /home/tuxmain/Colors.txt/colors.txt

Web interface

Both generation methods need a webpage(can be served by a webserver like Apache, Nginx):

Edit index.html (change the tiles URL, title, attribution and points of interest).

You can keep my server as a CDN for Leaflet, but it's preferable to host your own copy of Leaflet.

If you make substancial modifications or fixes to the backend (Python) code, please share (Affero clause). An accessible hyperlink to the file on the map webpage is sufficient, but a PR is welcome.
