A series of shell scripts that will install OSGeo projects (PostgreSQL/PostGIS, GeoServer) on a fresh CentOS 7 install.
This shell script will install PostgreSQL 10 along with spatial extensions PostGIS and Pgrouting.
Alternative version options for PostgreSQL.
If you plan on using an alternative PostgreSQL version, be sure to edit the shell script variables appropriately. For example, if you decide to use PostgreSQL 11 rather than 10...
PSQL_URL=https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/yum/11/redhat/rhel-7-x86_64/pgdg-centos11-11-2.noarch.rpm
PSQL_RPM=pgdg-centos11-11-2.noarch.rpm
PSQL_VER=postgresql11
PGIS_VER=postgis24_11
PGRT_VER=pgrouting_11
PSQL_LOC=/usr/pgsql-11
$ cd scripts
$ sudo chmod +x build-pgsql.sh
$ sudo ./build-pgsql.sh
Usually running shell scripts with sudo
is not recommended, however there are proper ways of doing this. Running these scripts with sudo
will avoid the user continually entering root passwords.
Check PostgreSQL version.
$ psql -V
psql (PostgreSQL) 10.6
This shell script will install Oracle Java 8 JDK and GeoServer
Alternative version options for Oracle Java JDK and GeoServer.
If you plan on using alternative Oracle Java JDK and GeoServer versions, be sure to edit the shell script variables appropriately. However, Oracle Java 8 JDK and GeoServer 2.13.0 are compatible with one another.
