.TH MINETESTMAPPER 6
.SH NAME
minetestmapper \- generate an overview image of a Minetest map
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B minetestmapper
\fB\-i\fR \fIworld_path\fR
\fB\-o\fR \fIoutput_image\fR
.PP
See additional optional parameters below.
.SH DESCRIPTION
.B 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.
.SH MANDATORY PARAMETERS
.TP
.BR \-i " " \fIworld_path\fR
Input world path.
.TP
.BR \-o " " \fIoutput_image\fR
Path to output image. (only PNG supported currently)
.SH OPTIONAL PARAMETERS
.TP
.BR \-\-bgcolor " " \fIcolor\fR
Background color of image, e.g. "--bgcolor #ffffff"

.TP
.BR \-\-scalecolor " " \fIcolor\fR
Color of scale, e.g. "--scalecolor #000000"

.TP
.BR \-\-playercolor " " \fIcolor\fR
Color of player indicators, e.g. "--playercolor #ff0000"

.TP
.BR \-\-origincolor " " \fIcolor\fR
Color of origin indicator, e.g. "--origincolor #ff0000"

.TP
.BR \-\-drawscale
Draw tick marks

.TP
.BR \-\-drawplayers
Draw player indicators

.TP
.BR \-\-draworigin
Draw origin indicator

.TP
.BR \-\-drawalpha
Allow nodes to be drawn with transparency

.TP
.BR \-\-noshading
Don't draw shading on nodes

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

.TP
.BR \-\-min-y " " \fInumber\fR
Don't draw nodes below this y value, e.g. "--min-y -25"

.TP
.BR \-\-max-y " " \fInumber\fR
Don't draw nodes above this y value, e.g. "--max-y 75"

.TP
.BR \-\-backend " " \fIbackend\fR
Use specific map backend; supported: \fIsqlite3\fP, \fIleveldb\fP, \fIredis\fP, \fIpostgresql\fP, e.g. "--backend leveldb"

.TP
.BR \-\-geometry " " \fIgeometry\fR
Limit area to specific geometry (\fIx:y+w+h\fP where x and y specify the lower left corner), e.g. "--geometry -800:-800+1600+1600"

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

.TP
.BR \-\-zoom " " \fIfactor\fR
Zoom the image by using more than one pixel per node, e.g. "--zoom 4"

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

.TP
.BR \-\-scales " " \fIedges\fR
Draw scales on specified image edges (letters \fIt b l r\fP meaning top, bottom, left and right), e.g. "--scales tbr"

.TP
.BR \-\-exhaustive " \fImode\fR
Select if database should be traversed exhaustively or using range queries, available: \fInever\fP, \fIy\fP, \fIfull\fP, \fIauto\fP

Defaults to \fIauto\fP. You shouldn't need to change this, but doing so can improve rendering times on large maps.
For these optimizations to work it is important that you set
.B min-y
and
.B max-y
when you don't care about the world below e.g. -60 and above 1000 nodes.
