mapproxy-hips 0.3.1

Plugin for MapProxy adding HIPS capabilities

mapproxy-hips is a plugin for MapProxy (http://mapproxy.github.io/mapproxy/) providing extensions for interoperability between OGC services (WMS, WMTS, OGCAPI …) and the HiPS protocol (https://www.ivoa.net/documents/HiPS/) from IVOA.

The plugin requires MapProxy >= 6.0.1.

Quickstart

python3 -m venv myvenv
source myvenv/bin/activate
pip install mapproxy
pip install mapproxy_hips

git clone https://github.com/rouault/mapproxy_hips
mapproxy-util serve-develop mapproxy_hips/hips_examples/ogc_as_hips/mapproxy.yaml &
curl http://localhost:8080/hips/mars_tiled_geodetic/properties

Adding a HIPS service

Exposing a HIPS service (that is HIPS as output of MapProxy) requires to declare a hips item under services in the MapProxy configuration file.

services:
  hips:
    #resampling_method: nearest_neighbour
    resampling_method: bilinear
    #resampling_method: bicubic
    # populate_cache: false

And you generally need to customize HIPS metadata for each exposed layer:

layers:
  - name: my_layer_name
    title: my title
    sources: [my_source]
    md:
        hips:
            # enabled: false
            creator_did: ivo://unknown.authority/some_id
            obs_title: Some title
            # foo: bar
            # hips_tile_width: 512
            # hips_order: 5

See https://github.com/rouault/mapproxy_hips/blob/master/hips_examples/ogc_as_hips/mapproxy.yaml for a full example.

Utilities

The hips-allsky command of the mapproxy-util script can be used to generate the allsky file needed by some HIPS consumers.

Usage: mapproxy-util hips-allsky [options] -f mapproxy_conf -l layer

Options:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -f MAPPROXY_CONF, --mapproxy-conf=MAPPROXY_CONF
                        MapProxy configuration.
  -l LAYER, --layer=LAYER
                        Layer
  -o NORDER, --norder=NORDER
                        Order
  -c CONCURRENCY, --concurrency=CONCURRENCY
                        number of parallel processes

The hips-seed command of the mapproxy-util script can be used to generate to pre-generate HIPS tiles.

Usage: mapproxy-util hips-seed [options] -f mapproxy_conf -l layer

Options:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -f MAPPROXY_CONF, --mapproxy-conf=MAPPROXY_CONF
                        MapProxy configuration.
  -l LAYER, --layer=LAYER
                        Layer
  -o NORDER, --norder=NORDER
                        Order
  -c CONCURRENCY, --concurrency=CONCURRENCY
                        number of parallel processes

Adding a HIPS source

Adding a HIPS source (that is HIPS as input of MapProxy) requires to specify type: hips in a source declaration, and specifying the URL and image format of the HIPS service.

sources:
  mars_hips_source:
    type: hips
    image:
      format: image/jpeg
    resampling_method: bilinear
    url: http://alasky.u-strasbg.fr/Planets/Mars_MOLA
    # cache_hips_tiles: false

See https://github.com/rouault/mapproxy_hips/blob/master/hips_examples/hips_source/mapproxy.yaml for a full example.

And https://github.com/rouault/mapproxy_hips/blob/master/hips_examples/hips_source/mapproxy_iau_49900.yaml for an example involving IAU CRS.

OpenTelemetry

The plugin has an OpenTelemetry integation. It is enabled when the OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT environment is set, e.g. to http://localhost:4317.

The OTEL_SERVICE_NAME environment variable is set by default to mapproxy.hips, and can be overriden by the user before starting MapProxy.

Other environment variables can be set as detailed in https://opentelemetry-python.readthedocs.io/en/latest/sdk/environment_variables.html

OpenTelemetry good working can be checked with the following procedure:

Given a otel-collector-config.yaml file containing

receivers:
  otlp:
    protocols:
      http:
        endpoint: 0.0.0.0:4317
exporters:
  debug:
    verbosity: detailed
service:
  pipelines:
    traces:
      receivers: [otlp]
      exporters: [debug]
    metrics:
      receivers: [otlp]
      exporters: [debug]
    logs:
      receivers: [otlp]
      exporters: [debug]

Launch the following opentelemetry-collector service:

$ docker run -p 4317:4317 \
    -v $PWD/otel-collector-config.yaml:/etc/otel-collector-config.yaml \
    otel/opentelemetry-collector:latest \
    --config=/etc/otel-collector-config.yaml
