pymapnik3

Python 3.x bindings for the mapnik map-rendering engine.

Currently in development and not ready for use. Contributions welcome.

Goals

• Easy, reliable build.
• No magic code -- all simple, straightforward, readable.
• Support Mapnik 3.1.
• Support Python 3, but not 2.
• Similar API to python-mapnik.
• Support what's needed by fhdb plus TextSymbolizer and ShieldSymbolizer.

Outstanding work

• RasterSymbolizer doesn't do anything.
• Need to detect mapnik exceptions and handle them.
• Build system needs to automatically detect whether or not to define BIGINT.
• setup.py has lots of hard-coded paths.
• Needs documentation to show how to use the bindings.
• Implement CSV data source.

How to build

pip3 install .
