A module that automatically syncs geographical information standards managed on GitHub to http://register.geostandaarden.nl

dependencies

You need a Unix shell to run this module. Linux and OS X have one by default. If you have installed git on Windows you can use Git Bash. Can't find it? Try Babun instead.

installing

1. Clone this repository and install the module in editable mode with pip as

    git clone https://www.github.com/geonovum/technisch-register
    cd technisch-register
    pip install -e ./
   

   The -e flag makes sure that "any changes you make to the code will immediately apply accross the system". pip will automatically install the project's dependencies (see setup.py).

2. Rename technisch_register/settings-example.py to technisch_register/settings.py and provide the needed paths.

3. Create the required directories and build the register

    cd technisch_register
    python initialize.py
   

running

The main script is build.py. It reads a GitHub JSON payload from stdin and builds the register in staging or production mode. Run build.py as

cat github-payload.json | python build.py

Line 32 of github-payload.json determines whether the script should build staging or production. Change prerelease to false to build production and vice versa.

testing

Install pytest and run the tests as

pip install pytest
py.test tests/

notes

The code is written on OS X and deployed on Ubuntu. Windows support is shaky at best.
