[Qgis-user] QGIS SCCM package

[Stefan Blumentrath]

Dear Anna,

At my institute we are currently using a solution based on OSGeo4W command line, that finally ends up in software center.

Here we make use of the nice and new Global settings in QGIS 3 [1]. This is what we do:

  1.  Download QGIS packages of interest:
osgeo4w-setup-x86_64.exe -q -a x86_64 -g -k -S -l "X:\\Networkdrive\\QGIS_packages\\ " -D -P avce00 -P boost -P ...

  1.  Inject a link to global settings on network drive in qgis.bat.tmpl (we use a python script for that which I can share if it is of interest
  2.  Our Sysadmins add some powershell based stuff in software center which at its core executes:
osgeo4w-setup-x86_64.exe -q -k -g -A -d -a x86_64 --local-install --root "C:\QGIS" -l "X:\\Networkdrive\\QGIS_packages " -P avce00 -P boost -P ...

Hope that gives some inspiration.

Cheers
Stefan

Subject: [Qgis-user] QGIS SCCM package

Hello fellow QGIS users,

I´m trying to create an SCCM package that contains QGIS with a few plugins pre-installed. I found these instructions: http://www.qgis.de/doku.php?id=site:kommunalverwaltung:netzwerk_install (Sorry, in German)
My problem is, since the instructions start out with a local installation, there are some paths pointing to my local AppData directory. The instructions say that I should change those paths to a central location. However, I would like the paths that now point to my local directory to point to each clients local AppData directory. Will this happen automatically? Do you have any suggestions how I could proceed with this?

Maybe there is a also different (easier) way to create an SCCM package with pre-installed plugins (there are no other adaptations on the QGIS installation necessary)?

Any suggestions welcome since I didn´t find much information on QGIS and SCCM on the web.

Thanks in advance!

Best,
Anna
