AGES Presentation on Web, Python, Django and GeoServer
- 1. Python & Web Beginners Tuitorial Association Of Geomatic Engineering Students - JKUAT By Victor
- 2. @NGENO-2015 SECTION 1: PYTHON SECTION 1: PYTHON
- 3. @NGENO-2015 Software Installations ● Python 2.7.* ● Print “Hello” ● Create new file vs working from shell ● Print “Hello” from cmd ● Setting Python to system path
- 4. @NGENO-2015 Importance of Python ● Why learn python? – Simple syntax and language. Allows one to actually dwell more on the functionality of the code rather than the syntax rules of the code. – Python is high level language – goes through interpreter then compiler to get solution. ● Automatic of tasks – Change of projection ● pyproj – Select Data – Downloading content ● Download landsat satellite images
- 5. @NGENO-2015 Importance of Python ● Software development – GUI – Qt, Tinker – Py2exe – Py2web – Database tools – mysql
- 6. @NGENO-2015 Python Libraries: For GIS ● GDAL/OGR – read and write geospatial data. Understand all(most) geospatial formats ● Shapely - manipulation and analysis of two- dimensional geospatial geometries. Point, line, polygons. ● Mapnik - visualizing ● Pyproj - projections
- 7. @NGENO-2015 SECTION 2: WEB DEV
- 8. @NGENO-2015 TOOLS ● Server (host) – W.L.XAMP, OpenGEOSuite, GeoServer, Bitnami, ● FTP software- FileZilla ● Web dev framework – Code igniter – Django ● Adobe Dreamweaver ● Balsamiq Mockups
- 9. @NGENO-2015 PROGRAMMING LANGUAGES ● .html - Hyper Text Markup Language ● .js – Javascript ● .php – server side scripting language ● .css – Cascading Style Sheets ● .py – Python (Django) ● Ruby on Rails
- 10. @NGENO-2015 LOCAL HOSTING ● Run Wamp Server ● Ensure icon turns green ● Settings for database in phpmyadmin app directory config.inc.php ● Access via localhost address ● Create new mysql database ● Host directory – Host codeigniter as a user website
- 11. @NGENO-2015 Moving Online ● Buying a domain – Namecheap.com ● Buying hosting space – Capabilities: Storage, bandwidth, Applications(shell, linux, django, geoserver) – Support – Cost ● Access public files via ftp – Demonstrate
- 12. @NGENO-2015 Learning Websites ● W3schools ● Codecademy ● Codewars ● Documentation from official websites ●
- 14. @NGENO-2015 GEOSERVER ● During installation mark port number, login details ● Access through http://localhost:port_number/geoserver/web ● Create new workspace ● New Store – Several choices pick depending on the use – Chose Directory- for our case – Copy data into the geoserver data directory as shown in the server status. ● Click on publish and provide the projection(srs) ● Declare bounding boxes by computing from data and the compute from native bounds ● Click layer preview and then openlayers for it to launch on browser
- 15. @NGENO-2015 GOING ONLINE WITH GEOSERVER https://www.acugis.com/geoserver-hosting.htm https://www.w ebfaction.com
- 16. @NGENO-2015 DJANGO ● Install django – python -m pip install django ● Example – Open cmd prompt – Cd to project directory – django-admin.py startproject mysite – ls to see all files and cd to subdirectories – Go to project main directory and run: – manage.py runserver ● Did yours work??
- 17. @NGENO-2015 Check Out ● Google App Engine ● Geodjango ● OpenGeoSuite ● Github ● Djangogirls ●
- 18. @NGENO-2015 Tutorials Attached ● Rapid.GUI.Programming.with.Python.and.Qt.O ct.2007 ● Python-geospatial-development-second-edition ● python_web_development_with_django ● Data Structures and Algorithms in Python ● byte_of_python_v192 ● Mastering GeoServer – PDF ● GeoServer Beginner's Guide ● Geoserver Tutorial-How to Publish Shape Files to GeoServer (video)
