Postgis DB to mbtile conversion - coordinate system issue!

[dhairyashil]

I am trying to run below command.

tl copy "postgis://username:password@host_id:5432/test?table=schema.lines&geometry_field=geom&srid=3857&layerName=road" "mbtiles://./belgium-tiles.mbtiles" -z 1 -Z 22 -b "2 49 6 52"

But while executing it, I am getting below error:

"C:\Program Files\JetBrains\WebStorm 2017.2.5\bin\runnerw.exe" "C:\Program Files\nodejs\node.exe" C:\Users\bankard\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules\tl\bin\tl.js copy postgis://journaldb:journaldb@insrvut-cpp01:5433/raah?table=tileserver_test.lines&geometry_field=geom&srid=3857&layerName=road mbtiles://./belgium-tiles.mbtiles -z 1 -Z 22 -b "2 49 6 52"

While debugging I have found that
in file tilelive-streaming/index.js

  var restrict = function(info, by) {
  info = applyConfigDefaults(info);
  by = applyConfigDefaults(by);

  // restrict the options according to known restrictions
  info.minzoom = Math.max(info.minzoom, by.minzoom);
  info.maxzoom = Math.min(info.maxzoom, by.maxzoom);
  info.bounds[0] = Math.max(info.bounds[0], by.bounds[0]);
  info.bounds[1] = Math.max(info.bounds[1], by.bounds[1]);
  info.bounds[2] = Math.min(info.bounds[2], by.bounds[2]);
  info.bounds[3] = Math.min(info.bounds[3], by.bounds[3]);

  return info;
};

this code is actually changing bounding boxes. and replacing it by bounding boxes provided in by object. Can anybody help me to understand from where it is actually computing by 's value and what am I doing wrong in sending parameters?

@mojodna : can you please help me here?

[sethfitz]

It's attempting to restrict the resulting bounding box to the minimally-available data. My initial guess is that tilelive-postgis (or whatever is handling the postgis scheme) isn't providing a bounding box.

[dhairyashil]

yes. shall I raise this in tilelive-postgis module issues?

[sethfitz]

That'd be great!
