## README

# RustMap

Attempt to reimplement https://github.com/FreemapSlovakia/freemap-mapnik into Rust, helping mapnik to rest in peace.

## Why?

- Mapnik is no more actively developed except for keeping it to build itself with tools of the recent versions.
- Better control of the rendering
- Improve resource demands (CPU, memory)
- I want to improve my Rust proficiency

## Technical details

- uses the same PostGIS schema as freemap-mapnik
- uses Cairo for rendering
- uses GDAL to read from GeoTIFFs

## Running

Install Rust and run:

```bash
cargo run
```

TMS URL is then `http://localhost:3050/{zoom}/{x}/{y}@2x[|.png|.svg]` (adjust your scaling).

## TODO

- Texts along line
- Icons
- Porting missing features from freemap-mapnik styles
- Nodejs binding
- support for PDF, WebP, Avif, Jpeg
- ...and other things still missing but present in freemap-mapnik
