common-ground_map

An enhanced leaflet map made for re-use (highly commented, built openly) used to show community groups and find "common ground"

This may uses data sets generated by the Mapping Community project, which are stored on [https://zenodo.org/communities/mapping-community](the Zenodo repository) and hosted live at [https://carto.mapping.community].

To view as a local copy (development mode):

1. Start by downloading / cloning the repo.
2. Run the server: node Clustering/server.js
3. Open the following URL in a web browser: http://localhost:8081/

To install (as a production service):

Note: we use Phusion Passenger on our web servers, which run Apache, but there are many other ways to run a web proxy. If you are using our install guide, you can use [https://www.phusionpassenger.com/library/walkthroughs/deploy/nodejs/ownserver/apache/oss/el7/deploy_app.html](the Phusion install guide), skipping steps 1.1 and 1.3.

1. Create a user account for the web application: sudo adduser commonground
2. Create directory for the repository: sudo mkdir -p /opt/common-ground_map
3. Set initial permissions: sudo chown commonground: /opt/common-ground_map
4. Pull code from GitHub: cd /opt/common-ground_map
5. Sudo -u commonground -H git clone https://github.com/mapcomm/common-ground_map.git Code
6. sudo -u commonground -H bash -l
7. Change to new directory: cd /opt/common-ground_map/code
8. Compile node packages: sudo env "PATH=$PATH" npm install --production
9. Exit back to main account: exit
10. Edit Apache config sudo nano /etc/httpd/conf.d/commonground_map.conf to include the following:

<VirtualHost *:80> ServerName commonground.mapping.community

    # Tell Apache and Passenger where your app's code directory is
    DocumentRoot /opt/common-ground_map/code/public
    PassengerAppRoot /opt/common-ground_map/code

    # Tell Passenger that your app is a Node.js app
    PassengerAppType node
    PassengerStartupFile Clustering/server.js

    # Relax Apache security settings
    <Directory /opt/common-ground_map/code/public>
    Allow from all
    Options -MultiViews
    # Uncomment this if you're on Apache >= 2.4:
    #Require all granted
    </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

11. Restart Apache: ``
