You should write some docs, it's good for the soul.
Installation
Install geonode with:
$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:geonode/stable $ sudo apt-get update $ sudo apt-get install geonode
Create a new template based on the geonode example project.:
$ django-admin startproject my_geonode --template=https://github.com/GeoNode/geonode-project/archive/2.6.zip -epy,rst $ sudo pip install -e my_geonode
Note
You should NOT use the name geonode for your project as it will conflict with the default geonode package name.
Usage
Rename the local_settings.py.sample to local_settings.py and edit it's content by setting the SITEURL and SITENAME.
Edit the file /etc/apache2/sites-available/geonode and change the following directive from:
WSGIScriptAlias / /var/www/geonode/wsgi/geonode.wsgi
to:
WSGIScriptAlias / /path/to/my_geonode/my_geonode/wsgi.py
To avoid having to grant apache permissions (i.e. www-data user and group) to your home dir where you likely setup the geonode-project; you may want to instead copy the wsgi.py file next to geonode.wsgi and replace the file name instead of the entire path.
$ cp /path/to/my_geonode/my_geonode/wsgi.py /var/www/geonode/wsgi/wsgi.py
Add the "Directory" directive for your folder like the following example:
<Directory "/home/vagrant/my_geonode/my_geonode/">
Order allow,deny
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
Allow from all
Require all granted
IndexOptions FancyIndexing
</Directory>
Restart apache:
$ sudo service apache2 restart
Edit the templates in my_geonode/templates, the css and images to match your needs.
In the my_geonode folder run:
$ python manage.py collectstatic
Github Considerations
While it is helpful to recommit your django project wrapper back to a distributed version control repository. * It is also important to remember that production instances will store security information in the local_settings.py * Admin/Devs should always remember to exclude this file in the .gitignore file in the same folder as the .git:
$ nano .gitignore
/{project}/local_settings.py
save, make sure the file is also removed from git cache:
$ git rm -f --cache //local_settings.py $ git status
confirm the file is no longer staged for the next commit or that if it is as "removed"
