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 mobiles app as well as web apps. 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 with
curl -L https://github.com/Geovation/photos/archive/master.zip | tar -xvf -
mv photos-master myProject && cd myProject
git init
npm install
git add . && git commit -m "kick off"
Alternatively, if you plan to keep Geovation Photos updates in your project:
mkdir myProject && cd myProject
git init
npm init -y
npm install geovation-photos -D
./node_modules/.bin/geovation-photos-update
npm install
git add . && git commit -m "kick off"
done !. Now you can start the server with npm start
Update it
Currently it implies some manual work but 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 First of all check if there is a new version with npm outdated.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
./node_modules/.bin/geovation-photos-update
And now just merge the changes by hand. If you kept your customisations outside Geovation photos folders, the merge should be not too bad.
