tilestrata-etag

A TileStrata plugin that adds Conditional GET support using ETags. This will prevent a browser from having to download all the bytes of a tile if the version it has cached is the same as what the server's going to send.

Sample Usage

By default, the plugin will skip anything that's bigger than 512kb. This is because ETag calculation takes a non-trivial amount of CPU time on large buffers. This limit is configurable via the "limit" option. Set to null to enable ETags for all sizes, or set to a filesize string or integer, representing the upper limit in bytes.

var tilestrata = require('tilestrata');
var etag = require('tilestrata-etag');
var strata = tilestrata();

// etags enabled for responses up to 512kb
strata.layer('mylayer').route('t.png')
	.use(/* some provider */)
	.use(etag())

// etags enabled for responses up to 1mb
strata.layer('mylayer').route('t.png')
	.use(/* some provider */)
	.use(etag({limit: '1mb'}))

strata.listen(8080);
