Geovation photos

Many people in our Geovation Hub are asking for a simple tool to upload images into a map. It must be free, and easy to extend and white label. It also must work as mobile app as well as web app. An example of this is Plastic Patrol. They needed an app to capture plastic pollution around UK. The idea of Geovation Photos is to be a skeleton for those types of apps.

Getting started

You can simple copy it and then modify it as you wish with

curl -L https://github.com/Geovation/photos/archive/master.zip | tar -xvf -
mv photos-master myProject && cd myProject
git init
npm install
npm install geovation-photos -D
git add . && git commit -m "kick off"

done !. Now you can start the server with npm start

Update it

If you plan to keep Geovation Photos updates in your project:

npm install geovation-photos@latest -D

Currently it implies some manual work but if you kept your changes in a a single place and with the help of a good git IDE it should not be too painful. First of all check if there is a new version with npm outdated. If there is a new version you can simple run

npm install geovation-photos@latest -D
npm run geovation-photos-update

And now just merge the changes by hand. Good luck !!!
