Developer Workshop

Create a custom project

NOTE: You can call your geonode project whatever you like following the naming conventions for python packages (generally lower case with underscores (_). In the examples below, replace ingcmz_geonode with whatever you would like to name your project.

Using a Python virtual environment

NOTE: Skip this part if you want to run the project using Docker instead

(see Start your server using Docker)

To setup your project using a local python virtual environment, follow these instructions:

1. Prepare the Environment

   git clone https://github.com/GeoNode/geonode-project.git -b <your_branch>
   source /usr/share/virtualenvwrapper/virtualenvwrapper.sh
   mkvirtualenv --python=/usr/bin/python3 ingcmz_geonode
   pip install Django==2.2.12
   
   django-admin startproject --template=./geonode-project -e py,sh,md,rst,json,yml,ini,env,sample,properties -n monitoring-cron -n Dockerfile ingcmz_geonode
   
   cd ingcmz_geonode

2. Setup the Python Dependencies

   NOTE: Important: modify your requirements.txt file, by adding the GeoNode branch before continue!

   (see Hints: Configuring requirements.txt)

   pip install -r requirements.txt --upgrade
   pip install -e . --upgrade
   
   # Install GDAL Utilities for Python
   pip install pygdal=="`gdal-config --version`.*"
   
   # Dev scripts
   mv .override_dev_env.sample .override_dev_env
   mv manage_dev.sh.sample manage_dev.sh
   mv paver_dev.sh.sample paver_dev.sh
   
   # Using the Default Settings
   ./paver_dev.sh reset
   ./paver_dev.sh setup
   ./paver_dev.sh sync
   ./paver_dev.sh start

3. Access GeoNode from browser

   NOTE: default admin user is admin (with pw: admin)

   http://localhost:8000/

Start your server using Docker

You need Docker 1.12 or higher, get the latest stable official release for your platform.

1. Prepare the Environment

   git clone https://github.com/GeoNode/geonode-project.git -b <your_branch>
   source /usr/share/virtualenvwrapper/virtualenvwrapper.sh
   mkvirtualenv --python=/usr/bin/python3 ingcmz_geonode
   pip install Django==2.2.12
   
   django-admin startproject --template=./geonode-project -e py,sh,md,rst,json,yml,ini,env,sample,properties -n monitoring-cron -n Dockerfile ingcmz_geonode
   
   cd ingcmz_geonode

2. Run docker-compose to start it up (get a cup of coffee or tea while you wait)

   docker-compose build --no-cache
   docker-compose up -d

   set COMPOSE_CONVERT_WINDOWS_PATHS=1

   before running docker-compose up

3. Access the site on http://localhost/

Run the instance in development mode

Use dedicated docker-compose files while developing

NOTE: In this example we are going to keep localhost as the target IP for GeoNode

docker-compose -f docker-compose.development.yml -f docker-compose.development.override.yml up

Run the instance on a public site

Preparation of the image (First time only)

NOTE: In this example we are going to publish to the public IP http://123.456.789.111

vim .env
  --> replace localhost with 123.456.789.111 everywhere

Startup the image

docker-compose up --build -d

Stop the Docker Images

docker-compose stop

Fully Wipe-out the Docker Images

WARNING: This will wipe out all the repositories created until now.

NOTE: The images must be stopped first

docker system prune -a

Recommended: Track your changes

Step 1. Install Git (for Linux, Mac or Windows).

Step 2. Init git locally and do the first commit:

git init
git add *
git commit -m "Initial Commit"

Step 3. Set up a free account on github or bitbucket and make a copy of the repo there.

Hints: Configuring requirements.txt

You may want to configure your requirements.txt, if you are using additional or custom versions of python packages. For example

Django==2.2.12
git+git://github.com/<your organization>/geonode.git@<your branch>
