QMapboxGL

QMapboxGL is a Qt-enabled viewport for vector tiles using Mapbox GL for rendering. It can be used for online and offline rendering of vector tiles.

Demo

A simple example rendering the Mapbox base vector tiles layer based on OpenStreetMap using different styles.

Sample code

#include <QtGui>
#include <QMapboxGL>

int main(int argc, char **argv) {
    QGuiApplication app(argc, argv);

    QFile data("/usr/share/mbgl/styles/emerald-v7.json");
    data.open(QFile::ReadOnly);

    QTextStream style(&data);

    QMapboxGL map;
    map.setAccessToken(qgetenv("MAPBOX_ACCESS_TOKEN"));
    map.setStyleJSON(style.readAll());

    map.resize(800, 600);
    map.show();

    return app.exec();
}

Build instructions for Ubuntu Vivid or Debian Jessie

Install the Mapbox GL development packages:

$ sudo apt-add-repository ppa:tmpsantos/mapbox-gl
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install libmbgl-dev

Clone this repository and build:

$ git clone https://github.com/tmpsantos/qmapboxgl.git
$ cd qmapboxgl
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ qmake ..
$ make

Run the example:

You need to export MAPBOX_ACCESS_TOKEN if you are using vector tiles hosted at Mapbox servers. Get one access token for free here.

$ MAPBOX_ACCESS_TOKEN=pk.XXXXXXXXXXXX ./qmapboxgl
