Installation

npm install -g @lbdudc/gis-publisher

Configuration

• Add a SPL folder with the code needed. If you don't have one, you can use the https://github.com/lbdudc/mini-lps source code as a template. After that change the config.json to set the SPL routes to the mini LPS. For example, add it in the root of this project and set the following:

{
  "platform": {
    "codePath": "./lps/src/platform/code",
    "featureModel": "./lps/src/platform/model.xml",
    "config": "./lps/src/platform/config.json",
    "extraJS": "./lps/src/platform/extra.js",
    "modelTransformation": "./lps/src/platform/transformation.js"
  }
}

Also, if you can customize the features selected in your feature model adding a "features" key in the config.json file. For example:

{
  ...
  "features": [
    "feature1",
    "feature2"
  ],
}

• Change the config.json file to match your needs. Choosing the type of deployment (local, ssh or aws) and the necessary parameters for each one. You can find more information about the configuration in the Changing the config.json section.

• Add your shapefiles in a folder. The tool accepts shapefiles with the following extensions: .shp, .shx, .dbf, .prj, .cpg and .sld. Also accepts .zip files containing the shapefiles.

Usage
