Vagrant files and scripts for setting up a local testing and development instance of OpenTreeMap (OTM)

NOTE: This repository is intended only for development and testing. It is not intended for setting up a production OTM server.

To get started, do the following steps:

• Install Vagrant and VirtualBox
• Clone this repository
• Create a Google Maps API key and replace the GOOGLE_MAPS_KEY in configs/etc/init/otm-unicorn.conf with the key you created
• Create a Esri API credentials and replace the ESRI_CLIENT_ID and ESRI_CLIENT_SECRET in configs/etc/init/otm-unicorn.conf with the credentials you created
• Run the script get-repos.sh
• Run the command vagrant up

This will give you a working installation of OTM, but without any maps.

To create a map do the following steps:

• Create a user from your web browser (the URL should be localhost:7070). The email will be written to a file in /usr/local/otm/emails/ inside the VM
• SSH into the vagrant VM with vagrant ssh
• Read the email with your user activation link (cat /usr/local/otm/emails/*) and activate the user by pasting the URL in it into your browser
• Change to the opentreemap directory using cd /usr/local/otm/app/opentreemap
• Create a tree map using the create_instance management command, passing the username you created above. For example, to create a tree map with name "Philadelphia", url name philly, and admin user "sue", centered at longitude -75.1 and latitude 40.0:

    ./manage.py create_instance Philadelphia --url_name=philly --user=sue --center=-75.1,40.0

For further help on how to use create_instance, run ./manage.py create_instance -h

To run on Windows you must install Cygwin (including rsync and openssh) and start a Unix shell like bash to run the install scripts.

On Windows the OTM source code is shared with the virtual machine via a one-way rsync from Windows host to Ubuntu guest. When you update source code files you must run vagrant rsync from your Windows Unix shell. See also vagrant rsync-auto.
