`mtredisalize` is the component which serves the block data to Minetest and the `mtwebmapper` as a Redis
server look-alike. Start it with:
mtredisalize \
-host=localhost \
-interleaved=true \
-change-url=http://localhost:8808/update \
-change-duration=10s \
/path/to/your/world/map.db
This binds the server to localhost port 6379 the default Redis port. You can shange it with the `-port=` option.
The `-interleaved=true` option is **mandatory** if you use the interleaved format of the database. Forgetting it
will end up in the crying mentioned above.
The `-change-url=` option is a forward reference to the `mtwebmapper` server which will be notified if the
world has changed. If it is not configured the tile re-generation is not triggered. As long as the Minetest server
is down there will be no changes and therefore it is safe to configure it even if the `mtwebmapper` service is not
running.
The `-change-duration=` option specifies the amount o time ho long the `mtredisalize` server aggregates changes
made to the world before reporting them to `mtwebmapper`. It defaults to 30 seconds but the value can
be increased or decreased depending how often you want to update the map. Decreasing it will increase the
computing pressure on your system so configure it wisely.
