EasyMapper
The Easy Mapper shows you how to connect a Google doc to a Django application, pull in data, Geocode it and put it on a Leaflet.js map using OpenStreetMap.
Getting started
First, install your requirements:
pip install -r requirements.txt
I have an alias in my .zshrc (or put it in your bash_profile) to turn my postgres on:
alias pgup='pg_ctl -D /usr/local/var/postgres -l /usr/local/var/postgres/server.log start'
Then turn on postgres with the pgup command.
pgup
Next, let's create the database for this application:
createdb easymapper
Now enter the postgres shell:
psql easymapper
In the psql shell you'll need to create your postgis extensions and whatnot. So enter this in the shell:
CREATE EXTENSION postgis;
CREATE EXTENSION postgis_topology;
\q
Now you should have the proper things to sync your database. Do this from your project root (where the manage.py file is):
python manage.py syncdb
OR run it all as one line:
createdb easymapper && psql -c "create extension postgis; create extension postgis_topology;" easymapper && ./manage.py syncdb
