Follow these instructions to build and run WorldMap in Ubuntu 16.04 LTS.
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install python-virtualenv python-dev libxml2 libxml2-dev libxslt1-dev zlib1g-dev libjpeg-dev libpq-dev libgdal-dev git default-jdk postgresql postgresql-contrib postgis
$ sudo apt-add-repository ppa:webupd8team/java
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install oracle-java8-installer
$ virtualenv --no-site-packages env
$ source env/bin/activate
Create an env_vars file such as this one and source it. The content of the file should be something like this (change it accordingly to your system):
export GOOGLE_MAPS_API_KEY=your-key-here
export DATABASE_URL=postgis://worldmap:worldmap@localhost:5432/worldmap
export DATASTORE_URL=postgis://worldmap:worldmap@localhost:5432/wmdata
export DISABLE_SECURITY=False
export ALLOWED_HOSTS=localhost
export GEOSERVER_PUBLIC_LOCATION=http://localhost:8080/geoserver/
export GEOSERVER_LOCATION=http://localhost:8080/geoserver/
export GEOSERVER_BASE_URL=http://localhost:8080/geoserver/
export USE_GAZETTEER=False
export HYPERMAP_REGISTRY_URL=http://your-hypermap-host
export SOLR_URL=http://your-solr-host/hypermap/select
$ vi env_vars # copy the content there
$ source env_vars
git clone -b wm-develop https://github.com/cga-harvard/cga-worldmap.git
cd cga-worldmap
pip install --upgrade pip
pip install -r requirements.txt
pip install -e .
pip install pygdal==1.11.3.3
paver setup
# clone worldmap
cd ..
git clone https://github.com/cga-harvard/worldmap.git
cd worldmap
pip install -r requirements.txt
# create the PostGIS role and databases
make create_user_db
make create_db
make sync
make static
python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000
or
make start_django
Open another shell terminal and start GeoServer:
cd ../cga-worldmap
paver start_geoserver
When running WorldMap in production it is highly recommended to use a proper web sever (nginx or Apache httpd) in place of the Django server.
You can find a sample configuration for nginx and uwsgi in the scripts directory (nginx_sample and uwsgi_sample files).
WorldMap is mainly based on GeoNode, therefore there are two steps involved in having it translated into your language: one is related to GeoNode, the other to WorldMap itself.
First, make sure that the GeoNode translation part is 100% completed for your language. This can be done using the Transifex platform (or with Git for experienced translators) at: https://www.transifex.com/geonode/geonode
A complete guide about how to contribute to GeoNode translation can be founde here: http://docs.geonode.org/en/master/organizational/contribute/contribute_to_translation.html
Second step is to translate those additional strings which are not part of GeoNode, but exclusive to WorldMap. This can be done using Git and a couple of Django commands.
As a first step, make sure your language files are included in WorldMap. Languages file are in the worldmap/locale directory.
If your locale file is not there, you can generate it with the Django makemessages command. For example for Italian:
cd ~/worldmap.git
python manage.py makemessages -l it
Open the locale file you want to translate, in this case worldmap/locale/it/LC_MESSAGES, and edit the translation strings as needed, for example:
#: worldmap/templates/site_index.html:68
msgid ""
"Build your own mapping portal and publish it to the world or to just a few "
"collaborators. WorldMap is open source software."
msgstr "Sviluppa il tuo geoportale e condividi l'informazione geografica "
"con tutti o con specifici collaboratori. WorldMap e' open source"
Once you have translated the strings you want, you need to compile them before you see them in the site. For this purpose you can use the Django compilemessages command:
python manage.py compilemessages
Now if you browse the site you should see your translations correctly in place.
The makemessages and compilemessages needs the GNU gettext toolset to be installed on your computer. For Ubuntu 16.04 LTS this can be done in this way:
sudo apt-get install gettext
JavaScript Developers can switch to using unminified scripts and CSS:
Run geonode-client in debug mode:
$ cd src/geonode-client
$ ant init debug
Set the GEONODE_CLIENT_LOCATION entry in local_settings.py to http://localhost:9090/
Note that this requires ant (http://ant.apache.org/) in addition to the build requirements.
To build the javascript files:
$ ant buildjs
Edit src/geonode-client/buildjs.cfg and add the needed plugin/tool:
[OpenLayers.js]
...
include =
...
OpenLayers/Control/Measure.js
...
[gxp.js]
...
include =
...
plugins/Measure.js
...
Rebuild the client:
$ cd src/geonode-client
$ ant init build
