NAME

       minetestmapper - generate an overview image of a Minetest map

SYNOPSIS

       minetestmapper -i world_path -o output_image

       See additional optional parameters below.

DESCRIPTION

       minetestmapper  generates  an  overview  image  of  a  minetest map. This is a port of the
       original minetestmapper.py to C++, that is both faster  and  provides  more  functionality
       than the deprecated Python script.

MANDATORY PARAMETERS

       -i world_path
              Input world path.

       -o output_image
              Path to output image. (only PNG supported currently)

OPTIONAL PARAMETERS

       --bgcolor color
              Background color of image, e.g. "--bgcolor #ffffff"

       --scalecolor color
              Color of scale, e.g. "--scalecolor #000000"

       --playercolor color
              Color of player indicators, e.g. "--playercolor #ff0000"

       --origincolor color
              Color of origin indicator, e.g. "--origincolor #ff0000"

       --drawscale
              Draw tick marks

       --drawplayers
              Draw player indicators

       --draworigin
              Draw origin indicator

       --drawalpha
              Allow nodes to be drawn with transparency

       --noshading
              Don't draw shading on nodes

       --noemptyimage
              Don't output anything when the image would be empty.

       --min-y number
              Don't draw nodes below this y value, e.g. "--min-y -25"

       --max-y number
              Don't draw nodes above this y value, e.g. "--max-y 75"

       --backend backend
              Use  specific  map backend; supported: *sqlite3*, *leveldb*, *redis*, *postgresql*,
              e.g. "--backend leveldb"

       --geometry geometry
              Limit area to specific geometry (*x:y+w+h* where x and y  specify  the  lower  left
              corner), e.g. "--geometry -800:-800+1600+1600"

       --extent extent
              Don't  render  the image, just print the extent of the map that would be generated,
              in the same format as the geometry above.

       --zoom factor
              Zoom the image by using more than one pixel per node, e.g. "--zoom 4"

       --colors path
              Forcefully  set  path  to  colors.txt  file  (it's  autodetected  otherwise),  e.g.
              "--colors ../minetest/mycolors.txt"

       --scales edges
              Draw  scales  on specified image edges (letters *t b l r* meaning top, bottom, left
              and right), e.g. "--scales tbr"
