info

Provides general statistics about a library. If a bounding box or polygon are specified, this command provides additional statistics about that area.

Usage:

gol info <gol-file> [<options>]  

Options

-a, --area=<FILE>

Defines the area to which the command should be applied. Currently, only polygon files are supported.

-b, --bbox=<W>,<S>,<E>,<N>

Defines the rectangular area (bounding box) to which the command should be applied. Coordinates are specified in WGS-84 (degrees longitude and latitude) and take the form <west>,<south>,<east>,<north>. Coordinates must not be separated by spaces (otherwise, they would be interpreted as separate arguments).

As an alternative, this option accepts a tile descriptor in the form z/x/y.

-f, --free

Displays statistics about the number and sizes of free pages.

-i, --index

Provides a detailed analysis of the library’s indexes.

For a large (planet-size) library, this option may require several minutes to execute.

-n, --new

Use this option to create an empty .gol file if the specified library does not exist (rather than failing with an error message). Combine this option with --url to specify a tile repository from which the library will be populated.

-q, --quiet

Displays only minimal output. Apart from error messages, only minimal progress updates are written to stderr.

-s, --silent

No output at all is written to stderr, not even error messages. (Whether a command succeeded or failed can only be ascertained via the status code returned by the process).

-t, --tiles

Displays statistics about the tiles.

-u, --url=<URL>

Specifies the URL of the remote repository from which tiles are downloaded into the library.

-v, --verbose

Writes extra information to stderr.
