Sadly not yet -- mapnik needs to be substantially changed to pass through the hstore. Looking for a kind hardcore c++ soul )) On Sep 18, 2015 11:03, "Sylvain Maillard" sylvain.maillard@gmail.com wrote:
Congratulation, that's a great work !
did you manage to find a way to provide localization for all languages within the vector tiles ?
cheers, Sylvain

Congratulations! Awesome stuff, been looking forward to it for some time. I particularly like the different resolutions for various device uses.
Will try to add it as the default layer for the Wikimedia Commons Wikimaps Warper (warper.wmflabs.org) application for georectifying historical maps soon. Perhaps one day the same architecture could be used to power mosaics of historical atlases - but let's get the world right now working first :)
Cheers and look forward to seeing maps.wikimedia.org progress in the months to come!

Wikimedia Foundation has implemented a new vector tile service
Kartotherian
(Mapbox+Mapnik stack) and launched an experimental tile and static maps service available at https://maps.wikimedia.org. Using this service,
you can
browse and embed map tiles into your own tools using OpenStreetMap data. Currently, we handle traffic from *.wmflabs.org and *.wikivoyage.org (referrer header must be either missing or set to these values) but we
hope
to open it up to Wikipedia traffic if we see enough use.
Getting started is as easy as https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Maps#Getting_Started
Tiles are served from https://maps.wikimedia.org, but can only be
accessed
from *.wmflabs.org and *.wikivoyage.org. Kartotherian can produce
tiles as
images (png), and as raw vector data (pbf Mapbox format or json):
https://maps.wikimedia.org/%7Bsource%7D/%7Bzoom%7D/%7Bx%7D/%7By%7D%5B@%7Bsca...
Additionally, Kartotherian can produce snapshot (static) images of any location, scaling, and zoom level with
https://maps.wikimedia.org/img/%7Bsource%7D,%7Bzoom%7D,%7Blat%7D,%7Blon%7D,%...
For example, to get an image centred at 42,-3.14, at zoom level 4, size 800x600, use
https://maps.wikimedia.org/img/osm-intl,4,42,-3.14,800x600.png
(copy/paste the link, or else it might not work due to referrer restriction).
Editing map style is very easy using the Mapbox Studio, and does not
require
any data on your machine - simply point it at Wikimedia server.
How can you help?
- Provide us feedback to help guide future features
- Improve our map styles
- Improve our data extraction
- File bugs in Phabricator
- Adapt your labs tool to use this service - for example, use Leaflet js
library and point it to https://maps.wikimedia.org
Based on usage and your feedback, the Discovery team will decide how to proceed. We could add more data sources (both vector and raster), work
on
additional services such as static maps or geosearch, work on
supporting all
languages, switch to client-side WebGL rendering, etc. Please help us
decide
what is most important.
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Maps has more about the project and
related
Maps work.
We would like to thank WMF Ops (especially Alex Kosiaris, Brandon
Black, and
Jaime Crespo), services team, OSM community and engineers, and the
Mapnik
and Mapbox teams. The project would not have completed so fast without
you.
