Luzifer / staticmap
staticmap
is a webserver written in Go to generate static maps from OpenStreetMap tiles. Its API is inspired by the Google Static Maps API but supports only a subset of the functions and parameters described there.
API
All map operations are made against the /map.png
endpoint of the server and are controlled by parameters:
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
center |
(required) Describes where to center the map. Must be given in decimal coordinates in format lat,lon (eg. 62.107733,-145.541936 ) |
zoom |
(required) Describes the zoom level of the map. Must be a number between 1 and 16 like in the OpenStreetMap itself |
size |
(required) Output format of the requested map. Must be two numbers joined by an x (eg. 600x300 ) - By default there is a limit to 1024px on each edge, you can set this in the parameters of the server. |
markers |
(optional) Marker definition, supports size and color attribute and marker positions must be given in format lat,lon . Elements of the marker definition are joined by a vertical bar. Valid sizes are tiny, mid, small . Valid colors are black, brown, green, purple, yellow, blue, gray, orange, red, white or a hex color in 3 or 6 letter notation: 0x333, 0x333333 . |
Example of a map having two different markers
/map.png
?center=53.5438,9.9768
&zoom=15
&size=800x500
&markers=color:blue|53.54129165,9.98420576699353
&markers=color:yellow|53.54565525,9.9680555636958
The map center is set to a coordinate within Hamburg, Germany with a zoom level of 15. Additionally there are two markers set: One blue
marker to the Elbphilharmonie, one yellow
marker to the Hard Rock Cafe Hamburg. The example above (of course without the line breaks) produced this image:
Setup
- There is a Docker container available:
quay.io/luzifer/staticmap
- This repository has precompiled binaries attached in the releases section
- You can
go get github.com/Luzifer/staticmap
the project and build it from source
Afterwards just see staticmap --help
(or docker run --rm -ti quay.io/luzifer/staticmap --help
) for commandline parameters.
