Tirex Tile Rendering System

Tirex is a bunch of tools that let you run a tile server. A tile server is a web server that hands out pre-rendered map raster images to clients.

The web page for Tirex is at http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tirex . See there for more information.

PREREQUISITES

You'll need the following Perl modules to run Tirex:

  • IPC::ShareLite (Debian/Ubuntu: libipc-sharelite-perl)
  • JSON (Debian/Ubuntu: libjson-perl)
  • GD (Debian/Ubuntu: libgd-gd2-perl)
  • LWP (Debian/Ubuntu: libwww-perl)

You'll need a C++ compiler and build tools to compile the Mapnik backend.

BUILDING

To build Tirex run

make

in the main directory. This will compile the mapnik backend and create the man pages for the Perl modules.

Call 'make clean' to cleanup after a 'make'.

INSTALLING

To install Tirex call

make install

as root user. This will install the main parts of Tirex including the tirex-master, tirex-backend-manager and the Mapnik backend.

This will not install the example map, or the munin or nagios plugins. To install those, call

make install-example-map
make install-munin
make install-nagios

respectively. You can also install everything with

make install-all

DEBIAN/UBUNTU

To create Debian/Ubuntu packages you need the package 'devscripts' installed. Call

make deb

to create the packages. The following packages will be created in the parent directory:

tirex
tirex-backend-mapnik
tirex-backend-wms
tirex-backend-mapserver
tirex-example-map
tirex-munin-plugin
tirex-nagios-plugin
tirex-syncd

Call 'make deb-clean' to cleanup after a 'make deb'.

TESTS

Call 'prove' in the main directory to run Perl unit tests. You need Test::More (Debian/Ubuntu: libtest-simple-perl) and Test::Harness (Debian/Ubuntu: libtest-harness-perl) installed.

There are some other tests in the 'test' directory. See the description at the beginning of the scripts for information on how to use them.
