G3W-SUITE WebGIS

This repository contains scripts and recipes for deploy of the G3W-SUITE web-gis application with Docker and Docker compose, customized for EOIntelligence.

Deploy

Follow steps to deploy G3W-SUITE on Ubuntu (22.04)

Configuration

Create a file .env (or copy .env.example and rename it in .env) and place it in the deployment directory, the file will contain the database credentials (change <your password>) and other settings:

# External hostname, for docker internal network aliases
WEBGIS_PUBLIC_HOSTNAME=demo.g3wsuite.it/

# This volume is persistent and mounted by all
# containers as /shared-volume
WEBGIS_DOCKER_SHARED_VOLUME=/tmp/shared-volume-g3w-suite


# DB setup
G3WSUITE_POSTGRES_USER_LOCAL=g3wsuite
G3WSUITE_POSTGRES_PASS=<your_password>
G3WSUITE_POSTGRES_DBNAME=g3wsuite
G3WSUITE_POSTGRES_HOST=postgis
G3WSUITE_POSTGRES_PORT=5432


# QGIS Server env variables
# ----------------------------------------------------
PGSERVICEFILE=/pg_service/pg_service.conf

Run

docker-compose up -d

If all went well, G3W-SUITE run on http://localhost:8080

Volumes

Data, projects, uploads and the database are stored in a shared mounted volume shared-volume, the volume should be on a persistent storage device and a backup policy must be enforced.

First time setup

• log into the application web administration panel using default credentials (admin/admin)
• change the password for the admin user and for any other example user that may be present

Front-end App

Set the environment variable

FRONTEND=True

This will set the front end app as the default app

Style customization

Templates can now be overridden by placing the overrides in the deployment/docker/g3w-suite/overrides/templates, a Docker service restart is required to make the changes effective.

The logo is also overridden (through deployment/docker/g3w-suite/settings_docker.py which is mounted as a volume), changes to the settings file require the Docker service to be restarted.

A custom CSS is added to the pages, the file is located in deployment/docker/g3w-suite/overrides/static/style.css and can be modified directly, changes are effective immediately.
