The purpose of this project is to provide a tile server using mapnik and tilestache.

Mapnik is a Free Toolkit for developing mapping applications. It's written in C++ and there are Python bindings to facilitate fast-paced agile development. It can comfortably be used for both desktop and web development

TileStache is a Python-based server application that can serve up map tiles based on rendered geographic data.

Running this will build a docker image with mapnik 3.0.10 and TileStache.

git clone https://github.com/srounet/docker-mapnik
cd docker-mapnik
docker build -t mapnik .

This image expose three ports 22 for ssh and 80 for Nginx/TileStache and 9001 for supervisord

sudo docker run -d -P -v $(readlink --canonicalize ressources):/etc/tilestache/ressources/ -v $(readlink --canonicalize ressources/tilestache.cfg):/etc/tilestache/tilestache.cfg --name mapnik mapnik

The root password is toor.

Default user and password are: ma/ma1337

Use ressources folder to synchronize your mapnik styles. Modify tilestache.cfg according to your needs, it should be synchronized with your Docker. Don't forget to restart tilestache from uwsgi / supervisord.
