Add Python webserver to start webserver to run Heron #321

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
Installing Heron requires running your own webserver like Apache. In addition 
to use "Identify" (WMS GFI and WFS) and Up/Download, the Heron CGI scripts need 
to be installed. Especially on Wndows platforms this
may be elaborate. By using a Python web/CGI server we can attain a minimal 
setup.

When Python is installed this one-line Python script already starts a working 
webserver:

       python -m CGIHTTPServer 8000

1- add a Python script that starts a webserver 
2- put the existing CGI scripts in a directory in Heron distro such that the 
proxy.cgi and heron.cgi can be executed
3- in time, even a Windows .exe distro may be generated
