by Paul Ramsey, so it must be good, right?
cd openmaptiles/pg_tileserv/
./serve_pg_tileserv.sh
then: openlayers-tiles.html
opal4 git was too old, needed to get our own:
from notes here: https://gist.github.com/samrocketman/8671036
git clone https://github.com/git/git.git
cd git
autoconf
./configure --prefix=/home/wendell/usr/local
make
make install
straightforward enough (after up-to-date git installed):
git clone https://github.com/CrunchyData/pg_tileserv.git
cd pg_tileserv/
make check
make build
and to try out:
> ./pg_tileserv --help
Usage: pg_tileserv [-dhv] [-c config.toml] [parameters ...]
-c, --config=config.toml
full path to config file
-d, --debug log debugging information
-h, --help display help output
-v, --version display version number
seems ok
1) edit config file as appropriate
vim config/ilc_config.toml
DbConnection = "postgresql://tiles:opentiles@localhost:55432/openmaptiles"
AssetsPath = "/home/wendell/openmaptiles/pg_tileserv/assets"
HttpPort = 2760
HttpsPort = 2760
UrlBase = "http://tiles.ilikecarrots.com/"
CORSOrigins = ["*"]
Debug = true
[CoordinateSystem]
SRID = 3857
Xmin = -20037508.3427892
Ymin = -20037508.3427892
Xmax = 20037508.3427892
Ymax = 20037508.3427892
2) stop postile
vim restart_everything_all_the_time.sh
3) run
cd ~/openmaptiles/pg_tileserv
./pg_tileserv --debug --config=/home/wendell/openmaptiles/pg_tileserv/config/ilc_tileserv.toml

looking good...
d/l the git release, then:
cd ~/gis/openmaptiles/pg_tileserv/examples/openlayers
vim openlayers-tiles.html
var vectorServer = "https://tiles.ilikecarrots.com/"
and then access it:
file:///C:/cygwin64/home/wendell/gis/openmaptiles/pg_tileserv/examples/openlayers/openlayers-tiles.html

and there was something at:
https://tiles.ilikecarrots.com/index.html

HOWEVER, all of the previews are from cdn.cartodb.com, not ilc !!! :-(
