User:Lizard wrote a simple caching-Proxy for OSM in PHP.
This should make it simple to use tiles in own projects (Deploying your own Slippy Map) without flooding the tiles-servers. You need to have curl installed.
tiles.php:
<?php $ttl = 86400; //cache timeout in seconds $x = intval($_GET['x']); $y = intval($_GET['y']); $z = intval($_GET['z']); $r = strip_tags($_GET['r']); switch ($r) { case 'mapnik': $r = 'mapnik'; break; case 'osma': default: $r = 'osma'; break; } $file = "tiles/$r/${z}_${x}_$y.png"; if (!is_file($file) || filemtime($file)<time()-(86400*30)) { $server = array(); switch ($r) { case 'mapnik': $server[] = 'a.tile.openstreetmap.org'; $server[] = 'b.tile.openstreetmap.org'; $server[] = 'c.tile.openstreetmap.org'; $url = 'http://'.$server[array_rand($server)]; $url .= "/".$z."/".$x."/".$y.".png"; break; case 'osma': default: $server[] = 'a.tah.openstreetmap.org'; $server[] = 'b.tah.openstreetmap.org'; $server[] = 'c.tah.openstreetmap.org'; $url = 'http://'.$server[array_rand($server)].'/Tiles/tile.php'; $url .= "/".$z."/".$x."/".$y.".png"; break; } $ch = curl_init($url); $fp = fopen($file, "w"); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FILE, $fp); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0); curl_exec($ch); curl_close($ch); fflush($fp); // need to insert this line for proper output when tile is first requestet fclose($fp); } $exp_gmt = gmdate("D, d M Y H:i:s", time() + $ttl * 60) ." GMT"; $mod_gmt = gmdate("D, d M Y H:i:s", filemtime($file)) ." GMT"; header("Expires: " . $exp_gmt); header("Last-Modified: " . $mod_gmt); header("Cache-Control: public, max-age=" . $ttl * 60); // for MSIE 5 header("Cache-Control: pre-check=" . $ttl * 60, FALSE); header ('Content-Type: image/png'); readfile($file); ?>
next, create a cache-directory and make it read/writeable
mkdir tiles mkdir tiles/mapnik mkdir tiles/osma chmod -R 777 tiles
This supports URLS of the form http://www.youdomain.tld/tiles.php?z=15&x=17024&y=10792&r=mapnik
...but for URLs suitable for a slippy map (structured as per Slippy map tilenames) you will need a rewrite-rule, for example in .htaccess :
RewriteEngine on RewriteRule ^tiles/([0-9]+)/([0-9]+)/([0-9]+).png$ tiles.php?z=$1&x=$2&y=$3 [L]
Test this in your browser with a tile URL such as http://www.youdomain.tld/tiles/15/17024/10792.png
If this gives you a tile image, then you're ready to point a Slippy Map installation (e.g. OpenLayers) at this caching proxy tile server!
Usage example with OpenLayers
In general, follow the instructions given in OpenLayers_Simple_Example. First create a new file like this one: OSM_LocalTileProxy.js
/** * Class: OpenLayers.Layer.OSM.MapnikLocalProxy * * Inherits from: * - <OpenLayers.Layer.OSM> */ OpenLayers.Layer.OSM.MapnikLocalProxy = OpenLayers.Class(OpenLayers.Layer.OSM, { /** * Constructor: OpenLayers.Layer.OSM.MapnikLocalProxy * * Parameters: * name - {String} * options - {Object} Hashtable of extra options to tag onto the layer */ initialize: function(name, options) { var url = [ "http://yourProxyHost/tiles.php?z=${z}&x=${x}&y=${y}&r=mapnik" ]; options = OpenLayers.Util.extend({ numZoomLevels: 19 }, options); var newArguments = [name, url, options]; OpenLayers.Layer.OSM.prototype.initialize.apply(this, newArguments); }, CLASS_NAME: "OpenLayers.Layer.OSM.MapnikLocalProxy" }); /** * Class: OpenLayers.Layer.OSM.OsmarenderLocalProxy * * Inherits from: * - <OpenLayers.Layer.OSM> */ OpenLayers.Layer.OSM.OsmarenderLocalProxy = OpenLayers.Class(OpenLayers.Layer.OSM, { /** * Constructor: OpenLayers.Layer.OSM.OsmarenderLocalProxy * * Parameters: * name - {String} * options - {Object} Hashtable of extra options to tag onto the layer */ initialize: function(name, options) { var url = [ "http://yourProxyHost/tiles.php?z=${z}&x=${x}&y=${y}&r=osma" ]; options = OpenLayers.Util.extend({ numZoomLevels: 18 }, options); var newArguments = [name, url, options]; OpenLayers.Layer.OSM.prototype.initialize.apply(this, newArguments); }, CLASS_NAME: "OpenLayers.Layer.OSM.OsmarenderLocalProxy" });
Now it's time to include the new layers for your proxy cache right after including OpenStreetMap.js by adding this line to your map page:
<script src="openlayers/OSM_LocalTileProxy.js"></script>
The last step is to add these new layers to the other defined layers:
layerMapnikLocalProxy = new OpenLayers.Layer.OSM.MapnikLocalProxy("Mapnik (local proxy)"); map.addLayer(layerMapnikLocalProxy); layerTilesAtHomeLocalProxy = new OpenLayers.Layer.OSM.OsmarenderLocalProxy("Osmarender (local proxy)"); map.addLayer(layerTilesAtHomeLocalProxy);
