[GeoNode-users] Add Plugins to Geoexplorer Viewer for Geonode

[Alessio Fabiani]

Hi Joshi,

first thing to do is to update the Javascript code. GeoExplorer used by
GeoNode is quite far from the original boundless SDK, abandoned several
years ago.

The source code can be downloaded here

https://github.com/GeoNode/geoexplorer

(be careful to git update the submodules also)

To add new features and/or plugins you need to modify build.cfg and
build-debug.cfg

To rebuild the packages you need to run "ant" from the root folder

Ant will create two JS files under
"geoexplorer\build\geoexplorer\WEB-INF\app\static\script"

1. GeoExplorer.js is the obfuscated and compacted version
2. GeoExplorer-debug.js it the clear version (useful to debug things during
development)

To debug the Javascript you can simply change the GeoNode template
"geo_header.html" and make it pointing to your debug version

e.g.:

<!-- script src="{{ STATIC_URL }}geoexplorer/script/GeoExplorer.js?v={{
VERSION }}" type="text/javascript"></script -->
*<script type="text/javascript"
src="/path_to_/GeoExplorer-debug.js"></script>*

Once you are happy with your changes and want to create a new version on
Pypi you need to do two things:

1. Commit your updates to https://github.com/GeoNode/geoexplorer
2. Commit your new compiled JS files to
https://github.com/GeoNode/django-geoexplorer into
https://github.com/GeoNode/django-geoexplorer/tree/master/geoexplorer/static/geoexplorer/script
3. Update the version of
https://github.com/GeoNode/django-geoexplorer/blob/master/setup.py
4. Commit the new package on Pypi
5. Update the GeoNode dependencies

 - https://github.com/GeoNode/geonode/blob/master/requirements.txt#L36
 - https://github.com/GeoNode/geonode/blob/master/setup.py#L134




Once you are happy with your changes
