A new vector tile server (to take over pietra and spinel)

background

I wanted to have a simple, scalable, fast, and interoperable vector tile server as a part of the UN Vector Tile Toolkit.

install

npm install -g pm2
git clone [email protected]:un-vector-tile-toolkit/onyx
cd onyx
npm install
mkdir config
vi config/default.hjson

an example of config/default.hjson
