Geonode_Live

You should write some docs, it's good for the soul.

Installation

Install the native dependencies for your platform.

Install virtualenv and virtualenvwrapper, Create a local virtual environment for your project and install Django into it.:

$ mkvirtualenv my_geonode
$ pip install Django==1.8.12

Create a new template based on the geonode example project.:

$ django-admin.py startproject my_geonode --template=https://github.com/GeoNode/geonode-project/archive/master.zip -epy,rst,yml -n Vagrantfile

Note

You should NOT use the name geonode for your project as it will conflict with the default geonode package name.

Install the dependencies for your geonode project into your local virtual environment:

$ pip install -e my_geonode

Install and Configure GeoServer

Note

At this point, you should put your project under version control using Git or similar.

In order to install for production on a remote machine or to a local VM for development, you will need to install ansible:

$ sudo pip install ansible

Note: It is advisable to install ansible system wide using sudo

Next, you will need to install the ansible role for geonode:

$ ansible-galaxy install ortelius.geonode

Setup VirtualBox and install vagrant, then setup your virtual machine with:

$ vagrant up

Note: the vagrant installation uses Ansible, so you will need to follow the steps in the previous section.

Update /etc/ansible/hosts to include your webservers host or dns entry:

[webservers]
###.###.###.###

$ ansible-playbook playbook.yml

$ python manage.py syncdb
