invar's Issues

Meta-tiling

Fix/test various output types

Use examples.sh fragments in docs

Document ivs3 usage in README

Add flag for custom font paths

s3 upload only coming through in waves

You can see what I'm talking about here. And this is from a insanely fast connection at the LA Times.

Am I nuts to think that it could somehow be tuned so that it feeds things up more steadily?

Test with newer version of Tilemill

No idea if this feature still works.

JoinableQueue object is not iterable

Anyone know how to fix this when running ivframe?

File "/usr/lib/python2.6/multiprocessing/process.py", line 232, in _bootstrap
self.run()
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/invar/renderer.py", line 38, in run
for tile_queue in self.tile_queues:
TypeError: 'JoinableQueue' object is not iterable

Python issues

I am totally not an expert on this, but I had trouble getting ivs3 to run until I changed the top line from:

!#/usr/bin/python

to:

!#/usr/bin/env python

Not sure if anyone else has had that issue.

If that's a thing, same is also true in ivframe and ivtile

Allow specifying a sub-directory of a bucket

Add flag for non-png256 file types

Vet command line options

Test with latest versions of dependencies

Add --csv example for ivframe

changeable queue size

Depending on the job size having an adjustable queue is useful for larger batch renders where you need more than just 20,000 tiles. Being able to adjust the size on the cli sazes the time from having to edit the file on your system.

I just added a param that allowed for setting the queue size, you find can find an example of it below. I would just do a pull request but you have made so many changes today it would run into merge conflicts.
