 GeoNode
=========

If you just want to try GeoNode, it is recommended to use Ubuntu 12.04 and install the latest stable release::

    sudo add-apt-repository ppa:geonode/release
    sudo apt-get update
    sudo apt-get install geonode

If instead, you are interested in doing development on the source code, here are the instructions for Ubuntu 12.04::

    # Essential build tools and libraries
    sudo apt-get install build-essential libxml2-dev libxslt-dev

    # Python native dependencies
    sudo apt-get install python-dev python-virtualenv python-imaging python-lxml python-pyproj python-shapely python-nose python-httplib2
     
    # Java dependencies
    sudo apt-get install -y --force-yes openjdk-6-jdk ant maven2 --no-install-recommends
    
    # Supporting tools
    sudo apt-get install -y  git gettext
    
    # Setup virtualenv tools
    sudo pip install virtualenvwrapper

    # Add virtualenvwrapper to your environment
    export VIRTUALENVWRAPPER_PYTHON=/usr//bin/python
    export WORKON_HOME=~/.venvs
    source /usr/local/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh
    export PIP_DOWNLOAD_CACHE=$HOME/.pip-downloads

    # Setup a virtualenv for geonode 
    mkvirtualenv geonode
    workon geonode
       
    # Clone GeoNode
    git clone https://github.com/GeoNode/geonode.git
    
    # Install GeoNode in the local virtualenv
    pip install -e geonode --use-mirrors
    cd geonode

    # Compile GeoServer
    paver setup
    
    # Start the development servers
    paver start

    # Visit the development geonode site
    http://localhost:8000


openSUSE Development Build Instructions::

    # Add Application:Geo and Python repositories
    zypper -ar http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Application:/Geo/openSUSE_12.2/ GEO
    zypper -ar http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/python/openSUSE_12.1/ python
    zypper refresh

    # Basic build packages
    zypper install gcc gcc-c++ python-devel libgeos-devel libproj-devel

    # Python native dependencies
    zypper install python-pip python-virtualenv python-imaging python-lxml

    # Java dependencies
    zypper install java-1_7_0_openjdk-devel ant maven

    # Supporting tools
    zypper install git gettext-runtime

    # Create virtualenv and activate it
    virtualenv venv --system-site-packages
    source venv/bin/activate
    cd venv

    # Clone GeoNode
    git clone https://github.com/GeoNode/geonode.git

    # Install GeoNode in the local virtualenv
    pip install -e geonode --use-mirrors

    cd geonode

    # Compile GeoServer
    paver setup
    
    # Start the servers
    paver start

Windows Development Build Instructions::


    Prerequisites:
    # Java JDK
    # Python 2.6+
    # ant (bin directory must be on system PATH)
    # maven2 (bin directory must be on system PATH)
    # Python distutils (easy_install)
    # git

    # Install and configure from the windows command prompt
    If you don't already have python virtualenv installed, then do it now:
         easy_install virtualenv

    # Create virtualenv and activate it
    cd <Directory to install the virtualenv & geonode into>
    virtualenv venv
    venv\scripts\activate

    # Install Python native dependencies
    easy_install PIL lxml==2.3
    # this command will look for and install binary distributions (pip install will attempt to build and fail)

    # Clone GeoNode
    git clone https://github.com/GeoNode/geonode.git
    
    # Install GeoNode in the local virtualenv
    pip install -e geonode --use-mirrors

    cd geonode

    # Compile GeoServer
    paver setup
    
    # Start the servers
    # This WON'T work on windows without changes to pavement.py 
    # and a windows batch script for starting jetty    
    paver start


Once fully started, you should see a message indicating the address of your geonode.
The default username and password are ``admin`` and ``admin``::
  
  Development GeoNode is running at http://localhost:8000/
  The GeoNode is an unstoppable machine
  Press CTRL-C to shut down


.. note:: 

  When running ``virtualenv venv`` the ``--system-site-packages`` option is
  not required.  If not enabled, the bootstrap script will sandbox your virtual
  environment from any packages that are installed in the system, useful if
  you have incompatible versions of libraries such as Django installed
  system-wide.  On the other hand, most of the times it is useful to use a version of
  the Python Imaging Library provided by your operating system
  vendor, or packaged other than on PyPI.  When in doubt, however, just leave
  this option out.
