DomeGIS

Map publishing platform

Install

Clone this repository locally, install Vagrant and run vagrant up inside the repository base directory.

If you have a Ubuntu environment, its possible to install the dependencies by running ./Vagrant-setup/bootstrap.sh via terminal, but it can cause conflicts with other installed packages.

Dependencies

DomeGIS uses Carto's fork of node-mapnik (lastest releases), a requirement of Windshaft module.

Migrate the database

We use Sequelize to handle models and migrations in PostgreSQL. To migrate a database, run:

sequelize db:migrate

You can set database credentials at config/config.json.

Configuration

The config directory contains the following files:

• config.json: db connection for Sequelize migrations;
• default.json: PostgreSQL, Windshaft and other platform configs.

For production environments, set NODE_ENV=production. If you want to override any default config options, create a config/production.json based on config/default.json. Some config options can be defined also as environment variables:

• NODE_ENV: development (default), staging, test, production;
• HOST: site hostname (default: localhost);
• PORT: server port (default: 3030);
• SUBDOMAINS: available subdomains, useful for tile requests (default: a,b,c).

When running locally, configure the file /etc/hosts to redirect {a,b,c}. subdomains requests, for example:

127.0.0.1 localhost a.localhost b.localhost c.localhost

Running tests

We use Mocha as test suite, use the following command to run all tests:

npm test

You can specify an expression to run only a limited set of tests. For example, the command bellow test the maps service:

npm test -- -g "maps"

This application is based on FeathersJS framework, you can check the documentation here.
