Re: [mapserver-users] Mapcache Question
Hello ALL!
I dig into MapCache now and my modest comprehension is:
1) MapCache uses Mapserv for seeding tiles or more exactly -
sends WMS request to Mapserv for getting a map:
source/source section in a mapcache.xml file
2) Ol uses MapCache for rendering that tiles or more exactly -
sends WMS(or other) request to MapCache:
new ol.layer.Tile({
source: new ol.source.TileWMS(({
url: 'myhost/mapcache/?',
params: {'LAYERS': 'mytileset'},
serverType: 'mapserver'
}))
})
where
/mapcache/ is path to a mapcache.xml(aliased through Apache),
'mytileset' is tileset name=mytileset section in a mapcache.xml file
3)The Seeding and the rendering needs other configuration of mapcache.xml
file(it is needs clarification).
4)The seeding may be through:
mapcache_seed -c mapcache.xml -t mytileset-g mygrid
or
during a certain map area is requested by client (it is needs clarification).
Thanks for any correction.
Best regards.

Tim,
MapCache Is simply a tiling server. It will take images from a source and
store them in a cache. These tiles are exposed as services to clients - WMTS,
WMS, TMS etc... MapServer on the other hand will read source data (GIS files
/ database) and render images based on rules defined in the mapfile. These
images are used as the source for MapCache.

I am using Mapcache to display a mbtile that I have created. Now from what I
understand, my mapcache .xml will list out the parameters of the mbtile and
then I add a layer within my mapfile referencing the .xml which I should then
be able to to use as WMTS using openlayers. I just haven't grasped how
mapcache and mapserv work together so any clarification would be helpful.
Thanks for your time.

Yes, this seems correct. I will not that you CAN NOT use mapcache_seed
AND web requests TOGETHER as they do not use compatible locking
mechanisms. So either use mapcache_seed before you deploy or use the web
requests to dynamically seed the cache. You can use mapcache_seed to do
a partial pre seeding (like rectangles around major cities) then change
over to web request which will generate tiles as needed in the remaining
areas.

Good catch Michal. I've checked-in an attempted fix for this, it should be visible soon. By the way, in the future if you want to report (or maybe submit fixes) to the docs the best way is to file a ticket here: https://github.com/mapserver/docs/issues Speaking for myself, I can't keep up to hundreds of mailing list emails a day, but tickets are easier to follow. -jeff -- Jeff McKenna MapServer Consulting and Training Services http://www.gatewaygeomatics.com/ On 2014-10-10 5:30 PM, Michal Seidl wrote: Hello, because I did not find any direct contact to www.mapserver.org website administrator I am sending this issue to this list.
