adc-pycsw

Setup and deployment of pycsw for the Arctic Data Centre (ADC) project

Installation

• Clone pycsw

git clone https://github.com/geopython/pycsw

• Clone adc-pycsw (this repository)

git clone https://github.com/epifanio/adc-pycsw

• Copy the plugin files into the pycsw source code

cp adc-pycsw/plugins/repository/solr_metno.py pycsw/pycsw/plugins/repository/

cp adc-pycsw/plugins/repository/solr_helper.py pycsw/pycsw/plugins/repository/

• Copy the output profiles files into the pycsw source code

cp adc-pycsw/plugins/outputschemas/*py pycsw/pycsw/plugins/outputschemas/

• Create a python environment (using conda for convenience)

conda create -n pycswdev python==3.9

• Activate newly created environment

conda activate pycswdev

• Install pycsw and its dependencies

cd pycsw
pip install -r requirements-dev.txt
pip install -e .

Setup

• make a copy of the pycsw configuration example file default-sample.cfg and name it default.cfg edit its content to have the following in the server and repository section:

[server]
home=/path/to/pycsw
url=http://localhost:8000/pycsw/csw.py

[repository]
database=None
table=None
source=pycsw.plugins.repository.solr_metno.SOLRMETNORepository
filter=http://solr:8983/solr/adc
adc_collection=ADC,NBS
MMD_XSL_DIR=/usr/local/share/mmd/xslt/

[xslt]
mmd_to_iso=/usr/local/share/mmd/xslt/mmd-to-inspire.xsl
dif=/usr/local/share/mmd/xslt/mmd-to-dif.xsl
dif10=/usr/local/share/mmd/xslt/mmd-to-dif10.xsl
wmo=/usr/local/share/mmd/xslt/mmd-to-wmo.xsl
mmd_to_inspire=/usr/local/share/mmd/xslt/mmd-to-inspire.xsl

• from the pycswdev environment export the MMD_TO_ISO environment variable, to the path for the xslt used to convert MMD records to ISO, e.g.:

export MMD_TO_ISO="mmd/xslt/mmd-to-inspire.xsl"

• activate the pycswdev environment and run the pycsw wsgi app

  conda activate pycswdev
  python ./pycsw/wsgi.py

  pray!
