Django GEOSource

This django application provide a Rest Framework API that allow to manage many geo data sources and integrate that data wherever you need, like a Django model or any output pipeline. Its provided with necessary celery jobs that do the job.

Configure and run Celery

You must define in your project settings the variables CELERY_BROKER_URL and CELERY_RESULT_BACKEND as specified in Celery documentation.

To run the celery worker: $ celery worker -A django_geosource -l info

To run the celery beat worker that allow to synchronize periodically sources, launch this command: $ celery beat --scheduler django_geosource.celery.schedulers.GeosourceScheduler -A django_geosource -l info

Configure data destination

Now, you must set the callback methods that are used to insert data in your destination database.

GEOSOURCE_LAYER_CALLBACK

The callback signature receive as first argument the SourceModel object, and must return your Layer object. Example:

def layer_callback(geosource):
    return Layer.objects.get_or_create(name=geosource.name)[0]

GEOSOURCE_FEATURE_CALLBACK

This one, define a feature creation callback method. Example:

def feature_callback(geosource, layer, identifier, geometry, attributes):
    return Feature.objects.get_or_create(layer=layer, identifier=identifier, geom=geometry, properties=attributes)[0]

GEOSOURCE_CLEAN_FEATURE_CALLBACK

This callback is called when the refresh is done, to clear old features that are not anymore present in the database. It receives as parametter the geosource, layer and begin update date, so you can advise what to do depending of your models. Example:

def clear_features(geosource, layer, begin_date):
    return layer.features.filter(updated_at__lt=begin_date).delete()

GEOSOURCE_DELETE_LAYER_CALLBACK

This is called when a Source is deleted, so you are able to do what you want with the loaded content in database, when the source doesn't exist anymore. It's executed before real deletion. Example:

def delete_layer(geosource, layer):
    if layer.features.count() > 0:
        layer.features.delete()
    return layer.delete()
