[Lizmap] Lizmap in advanced use: which development skills?

[Etienne Trimaille]

Good morning,

As Arnaud said, it depends on what you want to do with Lizmap.

  * Python : Only if you want to do some "script" in QGIS Desktop and/or
    on QGIS Server
  * PHP : It's used if you want to debug, or improve "core" code of
    Lizmap Web Client. It is running on the server side. Or you can your
    custom Lizmap "module".

I think these two above are not the priority, first to start.

I would personally learn HTML and JavaScript :

  * Lizmap has a JavaScript API. You can add custom scripts and make
    custom UI tweaks. If you are in France, look at Calvados instance
    https://mapeo.calvados.fr/carto/index.php?repository=2cd14 It's a
    Lizmap Web Client instance, but as you can see it's very customized
    UI ! and some custom tool within the main map interface
  * Other example in Guadeloupe
    https://deal972.lizmap.com/carto/index.php/view/map?repository=ocs&project=b_indic_urbain#
    I took a random projects.
  * Custom form filtering with icons and cards on the side
    https://lizmap.legrandnarbonne.com/index.php/view/map?repository=public&project=circuit_court
    or
    https://demo2.lizmap.com/lizmap/index.php/view/map?repository=cd48&project=poi

I would also improve SQL skills : trigger, functions, etc. There is some 
really nice features to do in QGIS with SQL logic in the database and 
relations between tables. Then you can combine this with Lizmap Actions 
https://docs.lizmap.com/current/en/publish/lizmap_plugin/actions.html 
which brings all your SQL logic within Lizmap with some buttons for your 
own application.

Regards,
