Explorer

Exploring the world with open data.

Installation & Deployment

• Use OpenMapTiles to generate map tiles. For default configuration these must be names tiles.mbtiles and placed within ./resources/tileserver/tiles. Alternatively set env variable TILESERVER_TILE_DIR to point at your tiles directory.
• Modify configuration in .env.dev and ./explorer-app/.env to your requirements. (optional)
• Run $ sh mvnw clean install
• Run $ docker-compose up
• Add $ python ./scripts/update.py to crontab for automatic updates (optional, not recommended)

Building from source

Explorer uses the Maven build system throughout with modules for:

• explorer-app Frontend client for web and mobile built with Vue.JS
• explorer-auth Authentication services
• explorer-keycloak Authentication server
• explorer-user User related services

To build use mvn build or mvn -pl <modules> build where projects is a comma separated list of individual modules.
