[GeoNode-users] ➜ Two ansible playbooks

Sat Nov 3 11:29:02 PDT 2018

Dear Toni,

Before installing Geonode 2.8 with ansible playsbooks, let me ask you is Geonode importer fixed in Geonode 2.8 installed with ansible? Because I think that this issue (importing of kml files) still remains on regular Geonode 2.8 stable:
https://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/geonode-users/2018-April/004230.html
Another question is should I install ansible on separate VM or could it be on the same machine with Geonode ?
I don't see in your guide how to choose Branch: 2.8 or Master ?

Regards,

Ana

Hi Ana,

So do you suggest to install/try first: 2.8 or master?

For production I personally stick with 2.8 as master is to volatile.
But for a test run I would currently suggest the master branch.
(Reason: https://github.com/GeoNode/geonode-project/issues/49)

Another question: do you have guide for installing Mapstore2/Leaflet into your appliance ?
The ansible Playbook just automates all required steps from the official
Ubuntu Install-Documentation:
http://docs.geonode.org/en/master/tutorials/install_and_admin/geonode_install/index.html
Hence you end up with a server instance which you can adjust to
your needs just SSH into it. By default the playbook installs geonode in the users home dir:
https://github.com/csgis/geonode_ansible/blob/master/group_vars/all#L17

Then adding MapStore is quite simple:
https://github.com/geosolutions-it/geonode-mapstore-client#integrating-into-geonodedjango

Leaflet as well, just enable the leaflet_hookset (comment the others)
https://github.com/GeoNode/geonode/blob/master/geonode/settings.py#L1223

Of course both steps could be automated with ansible as well.
One would change the local_settings template, which is copied on build
and in case of MapStore extend the pip install step.

Cheers,

Toni

Dear Community,

find here two new Ansible playbooks: https://github.com/csgis/geonode_ansible
which will install/configure geonode 2.8 or master (different branches) on an Ubuntu
instance. The Setup uses geonode_project, plus the full Tomcat, Apache … stack.

These Tasks-only playbooks can be used for a quick hit and run
and do not offer any code reuse opportunities by definition of roles or best practices
like Ansible directory layout ...

On the other hand they stay close to the official documentation. Hence it should
be easy for you to understand what’s happening why and when.

To get in running (check README)
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
1) install Ansible [1]
2) clone the repository
3) check that your instance can be reached by use of ssh key auth and that python Is installed.
4) setup your instance in the host file
5) adjust the vars like Geoserver password etc. to your needs
6) get a cup of coffee and let Ansible do the hard work.
7) Ansible will fail fast if something goes wrong if not log in with admin/admin and test.

= = = = =
I´ve tested the playbooks locally and at some AWS Instances
feedback, problems etc. very welcome !

Cheers,
– Toni
