vt-pbf
v3.1.3vt-pbf
Serialize Mapbox vector tiles to binary protobufs in javascript.
Usage
As far as I know, the two places you might get a JS representation of a vector tile are geojson-vt and vector-tile-js. These both use slightly different internal representations, so serializing each looks slightly different:
From vector-tile-js
var vtpbf = require('vt-pbf')
var VectorTile = require('@mapbox/vector-tile').VectorTile
var Protobuf = require('pbf')
var data = fs.readFileSync(__dirname + '/fixtures/rectangle-1.0.0.pbf')
var tile = new VectorTile(new Protobuf(data))
var orig = tile.layers['geojsonLayer'].feature(0).toGeoJSON(0, 0, 1)
var buff = vtpbf(tile)
fs.writeFileSync('my-tile.pbf', buff)
From geojson-vt
var vtpbf = require('vt-pbf')
var geojsonVt = require('geojson-vt')
var orig = JSON.parse(fs.readFileSync(__dirname + '/fixtures/rectangle.geojson'))
var tileindex = geojsonVt(orig)
var tile = tileindex.getTile(1, 0, 0)
// pass in an object mapping layername -> tile object
var buff = vtpbf.fromGeojsonVt({ 'geojsonLayer': tile })
fs.writeFileSync('my-tile.pbf', buff)
vtpbf.fromGeojsonVt
takes two arguments:
layerMap
is an object where keys are layer names and values are a geojson-vt tile,options
is an object (optional argument). There are 2 supported keys:version
to define the version of the mvt spec used andextent
to define the extent of the tile.version
defaults to 1 andextent
to 4096.
