The Windshaft-CartoDB MultiLayer API extends the Windshaft MultiLayer API in a few ways.

Last modification timestamp embedded in the token

It encodes a timestamp of 'last modification time' into the map token (token:EPOCH) returned to the client. It accepts tokens with encoded timestamp from the client considering the token suffix as a cache_buster value.

Clients don't need to be aware of the extension but rather use the API as they would use the base one. The only difference will be that the same layergroup configuration may result in different tokens if source data was modified between the mapview requests.

Additional attributes in the response object

Windshaft-CartoDB adds the following attributes in the response object

  • last_update field with ISO format (2013-11-30T12:23:10).

  • cdn_url object containing CDN url client should use (not mandatory) to access the tiles. It's in the form:

    {
  "http": "http://cdn_url.com/",
  "https": "https://secure.cdn_url.com/"
}

Stats tag

Windshaft-CartoDB adds support for a stat_tag element in the multilayer configuration to help stats gathering.
