Geopusher

Capture any KML/Shapefiles uploaded to CKAN and re-upload them as new GeoJSON resources

Implemented as a CKAN celery task that listens to resource updates

Installation

pip install -r requirements.txt
python setup.py develop

You will need GDAL. You can get in on Ubuntu with apt-get install gdal-bin

Then, add geopusher to your list of CKAN extensions:

ckan.plugins = ... geopusher

Usage

Automatic conversion

You can run the built-in CKAN celery daemon, if you want shapefiles and KML resources to be converted automatically when they are created or updated:

paster --plugin=ckan celeryd -c development.ini

or if you are using datacats:

datacats paster celeryd

Batch jobs

To create a GeoJSON resource from all the Shapefile resources on your CKAN server:

geopusher import --all -r http://myckan.org -a your_api_key

To only convert resources for a subset of datasets:

geopusher import dataset1 dataset2 dataset3 -r http://myckan.org -a your_api_key
