Check if map is already running #16

Closed nfitch closed 10 years ago

Rather than re-render and have the maps stomp all over each other, we should check to see if a render job is already running and not kick off another render job if so.

Yep. Makes sense. I'd like to add this.

Also a file which says the status of the map job so far.

The stdout reader could watch the progress & update a manta URL appropriately.

I should make a couple more issues. Since partial rendering would also be nice. Setting how detailed the zoom level gets would also help keep the map file size down. It can grow to be over a gigabyte. Which is much more expensive to store than the 1mb world.tar.gz. It also takes a long time to upload map tiles and re-uploading unchanged map tiles is a waste of time. M-sync could improve this.
