Getting started​

Curious? With the following four lines you can install MapProxy and all dependencies, create a new configuration and start MapProxy in development mode.
After that you can visit http://localhost:8080.

    sudo aptitude install python-imaging python-yaml libproj0
    sudo pip install mapproxy
    mapproxy-util create -t base-config ./
    mapproxy-util serve-develop ./mapproxy.yaml
