Geolocation package

Provides a collection of wiki pages for easy inclusion of Geolocation fields and semantics in Mediawiki projects.

Requirements

• SemanticMediaWiki
• PageForms
• Maps
• ParserFunctions (with $wgPFEnableStringFunctions = true;)
• PageExchange or PagePort

Setup

via PagePort

• download the repository
• run php extensions/PagePort/maintenance/importPages.php --source ~/mediawiki-pages-Geolocation

via PageExchange

• add the following to the bottom of your LocalSettings.php: $wgPageExchangePackageFiles[] = 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/NationalGalleryOfArt/mediawiki-pages-Geolocation/main/page-exchange.json';
• navigate to Special:Packages and install the package

Usage

Transclude into the form

Transclude the Geolocation fields set into your form once:

{{Geolocation fields set}}

Note, the field set is intended to be included as rows into an existing table with the other form field annotations. If you do not use a table layout in your form, wrap the template call:

{| class="formtable"
{{Geolocation fields set}}
|}

To use feeds to map feature, add the host template name as a parameter. For example if the template we call the geolocation field set from is called Person, put:

{{Geolocation fields set|Person}}

Features

• Full address string
• Coordinates calculation based on the full address
• Map input for setting coordinates manually
• Printout settings (coordinates|message|suppress)
