Dear OSGeoLive members,
we would like to propose adding the OSGeo Community Project
"GeoStyler" to the next release of OSGeoLive.
Please find below the answers to the questions listed on
https://trac.osgeo.org/osgeolive/wiki/Projects/How_to_apply [4]
Kind regards
Jan
What is its name?
GEOSTYLER
What is the home page URL?
GEOSTYLER.ORG
Which OSI approved Open Source Licence [5] is used?
BSD-2-CLAUSE LICENSE
What does the application do and how does it add value to the
GeoSpatial stack of software?
GEOSTYLER IS A JAVASCRIPT LIBRARY THAT ALLOWS USERS TO STYLE
GEOGRAPHIC DATA VIA A GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACE. THROUGH ITS
PLUGIN-MECHANISMS, IT IS INDEPENDENT FROM ANY SPECIFIC STYLING
FORMATS AND CAN THEREFORE BE USED FOR A VARIETY OF DIFFERENT STYLING
FORMATS, E.G. SLD, OPENLAYERS STYLES, MAPBOX STYLES, QML, ETC.
ADDITIONAL TRANSLATOR LIBRARIES ALSO PROVIDE FUNCTIONALITY FOR
CONVERTING BETWEEN DIFFERENT STYLING FORMATS (E.G. OPENLAYERS STYLE
TO SLD). EVEN THOUGH GEOSTYLER IS PRIMARILY A REACT.JS LIBRARY, WE
ALSO PROVIDE BUILDS THAT ENABLE USING GEOSTYLER IN ANY
JAVASCRIPT-BASED ENVIRONMENT. AS THERE IS CURRENTLY NO MAJOR
JAVASCRIPT LIBRARY THAT PROVIDES A REUSABLE UI FOR STYLING
GEOGRAPHIC DATA IN THE WEB, WE TRY TO FILL THAT GAP. FOR THE
OSGEOLIVE, WE INTEND TO INSTALL THE LIBRARIES "GEOSTYLER",
"GEOSTYLER-SLD-PARSER", "GEOSTYLER-OPENLAYERS-PARSER" AS WELL AS A
BEGINNER TUTORIAL.
Does the application make use of OGC standards? Which versions of
the standards? Client or server? You may wish to add comments about
how standards are used.
We support reading and writing SLD 1.1.0 through the dedicated
geostyler-sld-parser. We also support the import of data via WFS
1.0.0, 1.1.0, 1.1.3, 2.0, 2.0.2.
What language is it written in?
TYPESCRIPT
Which version of the application should be included in the next
OSGeo-Live release?
GEOSTYLER@4.5.0, GEOSTYLER-SLD-PARSER@2.0.1,
GEOSTYLER-OPENLAYERS-PARSER@2.1.0
If risk adverse organisations have deployed your application into
production, it would imply that these organisations have verified
the stability of your software. Has the application been rolled out
to production into risk (ideally risk adverse) organisations? Please
mention some of these organisations?
GeoStyler has been deployed into production for a variety of
applications. E.g.
- FEDERAL OFFICE FOR RADIATION PROTECTION GERMANY (BFS): OPENBFS
IMIS3 GIS-CLIENT (HTTPS://GITHUB.COM/OPENBFS/GIS-CLIENT [6])
- FEDERAL OFFICE FOR AGRICULTURE AND FOOD GERMANY (BLE) AND UNI BONN
(IGG, INRES): CROPWATCH (HTTPS://GITHUB.COM/TERRESTRIS/CROPWATCH
[7])
OpenHub provides metrics to help assess the health of a project.
Eg: http://adhoc.osgeo.osuosl.org/livedvd/docs/en/metrics.html
[8] Could you please ensure that your project is registered with
Open HUB, and Open HUB has been updated to reference the correct
code repository(s) for your project. What is the Open HUB URL for
your project?
GEOSTYLER USES CI/CD MECHANISMS INCLUDING CODE COVERAGES FOR UNIT
TESTS TO PROVIDE INDICATES FOR THE HEALTH OF A PROJECT. THESE
INDICATORS ARE LISTED IN THE README OF OUR GITHUB REPOSITORY
https://github.com/geostyler/geostyler [9]
What is the size of the user community? You can often answer this
by mentioning downloads, or describing a healthy, busy email list?
WE CURRENTLY HAVE AROUND 15 ACTIVE CODE CONTRIBUTORS IN OUR MAIN
REPOSITORY AND SEVERAL OTHER CONTRIBUTORS IN OUR OTHER REPOSITORIES.
THERE IS ALSO A GROWING COMMUNITY PARTICIPATING IN DISCUSSIONS AND
BUG REPORTS.
What is the size of your developer community?
ABOUT 15 ACTIVE CODE CONTRIBUTORS
Do you have a bug free, stable release?
WE DO HAVE STABLE RELEASES. ARE THEY COMPLETELY BUG FREE? PROBABLY
NOT. BUT THE CODE IS ROBUST ENOUGH TO BE USED FOR PRODUCTION
ENVIRONMENTS.
Please discuss the level of testing that your project has gone
through.
WE PROVIDE AUTOMATED UNIT TESTS VIA CI. CURRENTLY OUR CODE COVERAGE
IS ABOUT 70%. WE ONLY MERGE CONTRIBUTIONS THAT PASS AUTOMATED TESTS
AND BUILDS.
How long has the project has had mature code. ABOUT 2 YEARS
