I'm currently implementing this is a system call in PSIFER, as one of the options the AI can do. Is there a way to get it to go to a specific location at startup, or would I specifically need to do a text search in mapscii?

If text search, which command do I do this?

Hi
its very good idea and so funny
but i dont know where is Iran and Iraq
it has Tehran BUT hasnt IRAN? :|

Whenever I try to pan with the mouse, I get errors similar to the following:

(node:26121) Warning: A promise was rejected with a non-error: [object:Undefined]

Reproduced in termite and alacritty with tmux.

I would like to add Travis CI for running Jest tests, ideally with a coverage report.

As I do not have any experience with Travis CI yet, I am looking for help for an initial setup.

The current status is that I authorized Travis CI to read my repositories and I am looking to read the documentation.

Hey,
http://radio.garden + mapscii
Wouldn't it be nice?
Maybe using mplayer as the stream player.

Easy to say harder to do of course; anyway, just wanted to say. Lol.

The problem

When I open this program my hands instinctively try to adjust the map using the vim keys. This is the natural mode of navigation for countless TUI programs.

Proposed solution

h,j,k, and l are the classic left, down, up, right controls. You could keep zooming as a and z, but I would love to use J and K.

Additional context

I don't believe these keybinds would interfere with any preexisting options, and non vim users could easily stick to the arrow keys.

This also provides a framework for more keybinds. For example if you implement a search feature, the / key is already most peoples go-to and it makes the program easy to learn.

The problem

creating config and cache directories in $HOME quickly ends up with a cluttered $HOME by the time you have several apps running

I would like to see an option to user define the data/cache directory used

Proposed solution

one newer solution is to check the environment to see if $XDG_CACHE_HOME is defined and if so create a subdirectory under it named after the app and put any cache data there

see

https://specifications.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-latest.html

Alternative solutions

some developers solve it with an ENV variable pointing to the cache/data/config directories

others have a command line switch to define such a directory

Additional context

thanks for taking the time to read this

I haven't looked at the exact implementation yet, so forgive me if this is already the case.

It would be possible to render the map offscreen, e.g. in a worker process and then display it. By doing this, the UI wouldn't be blocked that long. Scrolling would have to be disabled or a new rendering attempt started (with the new zoom level) on scroll/move events.

Asciicasts are technically superior and have a better UX than gifs.

There should be a way to search for a city, a street address, or a point of interest nearby.

Example of search string that should possible :

• New York
• 28 Something Street, Somecity
• United Kingdom
• Bar (to show bars nearby)

We could imagine a shortcut such as / (so we'll be typing /seachstring) and then have a drop down menu if there is multiple results.

The problem is in term-mouse package
I have created pull request for it, but project is 5 years old and I am not sure if it is still alive.
CoderPuppy/term-mouse#1

Since I started accepting pull requests the repository has gained a couple new contributors.
According to the chosen licence MIT contributors get attributed.

• I am in favour of a PR that adds their full names and/or GitHub nicknames (as @[email protected]) to the LICENCE file before the next release.

• If that is the way contributors get their attribution, it should get mentioned in a Contributing.md.

• And the repository should get a Pull Request template, asking with what name they would like to get attributed.

Some ideas:

• A very simple, coloured world out of ascii chars
  • If it is round, which part of the world to show??
  • If it is like a map, it won’t be square...
• A terminal icon with some content
  • A map?
  • A town
  • Something similar to what the standard map apps use? (some streets an a locator) ⭐️
• The OSM logo as an Ascii art? (I am not a fan of the OSM logo in the first place. It looks to complicated.)

I don't use snap and wouldn't want to as well as others. If someone could make a .deb, it would be great.
Thanks

As suggested in this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AFtfpluqv14&t=585s) is a good practice to use the default folder, that is ~/.cache to put application cache files to have a cleaner home folder, so I would suggest updating the code and move the .mapscii folder in that folder.

A great use for this system would be to view events (or alerts) on a map. For example, I have traffic sensors distributed throughout a city. It would be nice if I could pipe in an array of {lat, long} pairs and have markers appear on the map. Then mapscii becomes a great starting point for any monitoring service.

Great project! Keep with it. Thanks.

Using breseham for drawing every shape is extremely convenient, but the visual noise is significant. It might be better to render continuous, large surfaces with a background color, e.g. using chalk.

the borders of the area would look different however, so this would require some further investigation.

Hey,

do you work hand in hand with visually impaired or blind users to develop this project further and doing improvements?

If yes, then how is it going like getting feedback, working hand in hand with such people, is the communication via internet or also in real life? Do you work for an organization working for and with people with visually impairments?

Reproduce:

1. Start Mapscii with npm run start
2. Press Escape on the keyboard

Affected

Tested on

• Ubuntu 17.10 with gnome-terminal
• [email protected]
• [email protected]

Only my local mapscii (version 1251e3f) is affected.

Expected:

Mapscii ignores this or quits.

Actual:

Mapscii crashes

There are quite a lot of readline-inspired key bindings that you could consider supporting.

I cant start mapscii because on the server is not responding.
Is it possible to run this without any server dependency?

Welcome to MapSCII! Use your cursors to navigate, a/z to zoom, q to quit.

Expected behavior

• map displayed.

Steps to fix

• rm -rf ~/.mapscii/cache
• app starts normally

Is it possible to add custom events so via a click I can retrieve coordinates and then use them in other libraries, so mapscii can be used as a lib as well?

thanks

In my opinion, using the mouse wheel should scroll relative to the cursor position instead of in the center.

I've followed the 'instructions', and looked around for what I can see myself, but can't find a proper reason for this happening when trying to run mapscii.

Reproduce:

1. Rapidly press any character or number on the keyboard and the left or right arrow key.
2. Keep doing that until the mode switches.

Explanation:

The package keypress triggers the string 'escape' which might get interpreted letter by letter. As it includes ´c´ it could change the mode state. (This is an assumption, however, unconfirmed.)

Affected

Both the local mapscii and telnet version are affected.

I would like to use mapscii as a module in a standalone CLI client to display map information. Is there some documentation available for this planned or ready?
Many thanks

fetch (specifically fetch-ponyfill) is a lot more lightweight than request and sufficient for 99% of the use cases.

would submit a PR if you don't mind.

@rastapasta
A lot has changed since the last release. Many dependencies changed, lots of bugs have been fixed.
Can we have a new release with an update of telnet and NPM release?

Also, is there a way for us to update the map data? The tiles have not been updated since I started mapping three years ago.

As the title says.

For example, zoom in at location 39.761, 116.424 (Beijing, China).

I have made sure that my terminal is showing wide characters in monospace (2 chars wide on Chinese characters for example).

It gives me a black screen on Ubuntu 16.04

Ideally tests get added to all files, functions and execution paths to raise confidence into changes to the code base. The goal is to add continuous integration tests for an easier approval process of new changes.

I am in favour of adding Jest as a development dependency to write unit tests.

The current implementation is still built around the now deprecated osm2vectortiles - so let's switch it to its successor OpenMapTiles!

Things to do:

• adapt Renderer._generateDrawOrder to the new Tile Schema
• adapt styles or fork & adapt the OpenMapTiles ones for console usage
• setup a server to serve the Planet MBTiles

Does PuTTY support mouse events and how can I enable them?

(On a side note telnet mapscii.me also doesn't work. Timeout trying to connect to 185.162.249.146)

They changed from CC-BY-SA a few years ago.

right now, mapscii shows something like "-66 40" at the bottom, i guess that's relative to the coordinates of the map center. what about showing the coordinates at the mouse position?

Would like to be able to center the map around my current location. I wrote location for this.

Will submit a PR if you don't mind.

Taiwan is a part of China, and should not be displayed as separate parts,please modify

Sometimes the map is more clear without e.g. municipal or state borders.

It would be nice to have the option to hide them from the map.

hello! is it possible to add a parameter to modify display ratio? I'm using IBM-like bitmap 8*8 fonts, so the map is displayed with the wrong ratio :)
