RENDER_LIST(1) General Commands Manual RENDER_LIST(1)

render_list - renders a list of map tiles by sending requests to a rendering daemon.

render_list [options] < render.list

This manual page briefly documents the render_list command.

render_list is a helper utility that takes a list of map tiles from stdin and sends the requests to a rendering daemon

This program follows the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (`-'). A summary of options is included below.

Render all tiles in given zoom level range instead of reading from STDIN.
Specify a `renderd.conf` file from which to load various option values rather than specifying via command line.

The following options will be set (if present); however, they can be overridden if also specified:

-s|--socket

-n|--num-threads

-t|--tile-dir

-z|--min-zoom

-Z|--max-zoom

Render tiles even if they seem current.
Render tiles in this map (default is 'default').
Sleep if load is this high (default is '16').
Unix domain socket name or hostname and port for contacting renderd (default is '/run/renderd/renderd.sock').
The number of parallel request threads (default is '1').
Tile cache directory (default is '/var/cache/renderd/tiles').
Filter input to only render tiles greater than or equal to this zoom level (default is '0').
Filter input to only render tiles less than or equal to this zoom level (default is '20').
Print out a help text for render_list
Print out the version number for render_list

If you are using -a|--all, you can restrict the tile range by adding these options:

(please note that tile coordinates must be positive integers and are not latitude and longitude values)


-g|--min-lat=LATITUDE minimum latitude
-G|--max-lat=LATITUDE maximum latitude
-w|--min-lon=LONGITUDE minimum longitude
-W|--max-lon=LONGITUDE maximum longitude
-x|--min-x=X minimum X tile coordinate
-X|--max-x=X maximum X tile coordinate
-y|--min-y=Y minimum Y tile coordinate
-Y|--max-y=Y maximum Y tile coordinate

Without -a|--all, send a list of tiles to be rendered from STDIN in the format:
X Y Z e.g.
0 0 1
0 1 1
1 0 1
1 1 1

The above would cause all 4 tiles at zoom 1 to be rendered
