Note: This project started as a partial implementation of the API and features provided by mbtileserver written in Go by Brendan Ward. It might diverge from that project in the future.
Tested with rust 1.54
A simple Rust-based server for map tiles stored in mbtiles format.
Run mbtileserver --help for a list and description of the available flags:

-d, --directory <directory>
Tiles directory
[default: ./tiles]
-H, --header <header>...

Run mbtileserver to start serving the mbtiles in a given folder. The default folder is ./tiles and you can change it with -d flag.
The server starts on port 3000 by default. You can use a different port via -p flag.
You can adjust the log level by setting RUST_LOG environment variable. Possible values are trace, debug, info, warn, error.
| Endpoint | Description |
|---|---|
| /services | lists all discovered and valid mbtiles in the tiles directory |
| /services/<path-to-tileset> | shows tileset metadata |
| /services/<path-to-tileset>/map | tileset preview |
| /services/<path-to-tileset>/tiles/{z}/{x}/{y}. | returns tileset tile at the given x, y, and z |
| /services/<path-to-tileset>/tiles/{z}/{x}/{y}.json | returns UTFGrid data at the given x, y, and z (only for tilesets with UTFGrid) |
You can test this project by running docker-compose up. It starts a server on port 3000 and serves the tilesets in ./tiles directory.
