template plugins

Directory to hold sample plugin templates.

These are NOT intended to be used except for testing by developers.

Build these plugins with the Mapnik build system:

./configure SAMPLE_INPUT_PLUGINS=True
make install

Or develop them locally using the Makefile provided.

Only an ultra-simple hello world is available currently, but planned are example plugins templates for file-based and sql-based datasources.
