tilenol could greatly benefit from the vast majority of tile data servers that are currently unsupported (e.g. Mapbox Tiling Service), and likely to not be supported for a while. In order to provide a simple means of sort of "bridging" this gap, we could potentially implement a new backend data source which allows tilenol to operate as a sort of "frontend" to both raw backend data sources and other tile servers. For example:
layers:
- name: treessource:
tilejson:
# The backend TileJSON URLurl: https://my.tile.server/tilejson# The backend layer we want to pull outlayer: trees
- name: buildingssource:
postgis:
...
In this example, tilenol would act as a common "frontend" to both the trees layer (coming from a backend tile server), and the buildings layer (coming directly from PostGIS).
Another interesting thought is that if we were to implement #6 , we could also benefit from the fact that a tilenol server could act as that unified "frontend" for even other tilenol servers, and form a kind of "federated" service.
