The Windshaft-CartoDB MultiLayer API extends the [Windshaft MultiLayer API](https://github.com/Vizzuality/Windshaft/wiki/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:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
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](https://github.com/CartoDB/Windshaft-cartodb/wiki/Redis-stats-format) gathering.
