Martin is a tile server able to generate [vector tiles](https://github.com/mapbox/vector-tile-spec) on the fly from large [PostGIS](https://github.com/postgis/postgis) databases, or serve tiles from [PMTile](https://protomaps.com/blog/pmtiles-v3-whats-new) and [MBTile](https://github.com/mapbox/mbtiles-spec) files. Martin optimizes for speed and heavy traffic, and is written in [Rust](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust).

## Usage
### PostGIS sources
Martin supports any number of PostgreSQL/PostGIS database connections with [geospatial-enabled](https://postgis.net/docs/using_postgis_dbmanagement.html#geometry_columns) tables and tile-producing SQL functions, as well as [PMTile](https://protomaps.com/blog/pmtiles-v3-whats-new) and [MBTile](https://github.com/mapbox/mbtiles-spec) files as tile sources.
Martin requires at least one PostgreSQL [connection string](https://maplibre.org/martin/PostgreSQL-Connection-String.html) or a [tile source file](https://maplibre.org/martin/MBTile-and-PMTile-Sources.html) as a command-line argument. A PG connection string can also be passed via the `DATABASE_URL` environment variable.
Martin can auto-discover tables and functions using a [connection string](https://maplibre.org/martin/PostgreSQL-Connection-String.html). A PG connection string can also be passed via the `DATABASE_URL` environment variable.
Each tile source will have a [TileJSON](https://github.com/mapbox/tilejson-spec) endpoint.
#### Examples
```shell
martin postgresql://user:password@host:port/database
```
# publish all tables and functions from a single database
export DATABASE_URL=postgresql://user:password@host:port/database
martin
Martin provides [TileJSON](https://github.com/mapbox/tilejson-spec) endpoint for each [geospatial-enabled](https://postgis.net/docs/using_postgis_dbmanagement.html#geometry_columns) table in your database.
# same as above, but passing connection string via CLI, together with a directory of .mbtiles/.pmtiles files
martin postgresql://user:password@host:port/database path/to/dir
### MBTiles and PMTiles sources
Martin can serve any type of tiles from [PMTile](https://protomaps.com/blog/pmtiles-v3-whats-new) and [MBTile](https://github.com/mapbox/mbtiles-spec) files. To serve a file from CLI, simply put the path to the file or the directory with `*.mbtiles` or `*.pmtiles` files. For example:
# publish all discovered tables/funcs from two DBs
# and generate config file with all detected sources
martin postgres://... postgres://... --save-config config.yaml
```shell
martin /path/to/mbtiles/file.mbtiles
martin /path/to/directory
# use configuration file instead of auto-discovery
martin --config config.yaml
```
## API
When started, Martin will go through all spatial tables and functions with an appropriate signature in the database. These tables and functions will be available as the HTTP endpoints, which you can use to query Mapbox vector tiles.
Martin data is available via the HTTP `GET` endpoints:
