Re: [GRASS-dev] m.printws - new module recommendation/announcement

[Robert Kuszinger]

Dear Veronica,

Anna was faster with her answer. To ease the use I'll put it into a
standalone repo as Anna recommended and test myself the g.extension way.
Also I'm happy to hear that now it runs.

Thanks
Robert

Zipping is not necessary, g.extension should work on directories as well.

Thanks much for the instructions, Anna!

In the end, what I did was to download the whole folder, unzip, extract
only the m.printws, zip it and use g.extension

g.extension m.printws url=/home/veroandreo/software/m.printws.zip

and it worked perfectly :)

best,
Vero

I think it's because it's not at top level in the repository.
g.extension expects the module is at top level and creates an URL of
the zip. Github doesn't seem to allow you to download a subdirectory
from the repo as a zip, so I don't think we can do anything about it,
at least not easily.

Either download the module manually and run in the directory with the module:
make MODULE_TOPDIR=/path/to/trunk
make install MODULE_TOPDIR=/path/to/trunk

or Robert can split the repo into two, one for each addon.

Re: [GRASS-dev] m.printws - new module recommendation/announcement

[Veronica Andreo]

Hello Robert,

I would like to test this new add-on very much, but I haven't been able to
install it with g.extension as explained here:
https://grass.osgeo.org/grass73/manuals/g.extension.html for the case of
repositories other than SVN. This is the command I'm using:

g.extension m.printws url=
github.com/kuszinger/giscomgrass7addons/tree/master/m.printws
Fetching  from
<
https://github.com/kuszinger/giscomgrass7addons/tree/master/m.printws/archive/master.zip
>
(be patient)...
ERROR: Extension  not found

(I'm using a freshly recompiled grass73 - r69069M under Linux-Fedora24)

Am I using g.extension properly? Any ideas?

Best,
Vero

[GRASS-dev] m.printws - new module recommendation/announcement

[Robert Kuszinger]

Hi all,

I've created a new python script which generates:

   - quick printout (pdf) from workspace definitions
   - supports multiple display definitions in one workspace ( = multiple
   printouts in one run)
   - UTF-8 text could also be printed (ps.map supports only latin1, this
   was the initial reason to create alternative print method)

known major issues:

   - barscale and northarrow positioning should be revised in the
   respective d.* modules
   - ImageMagick dependency should be eliminated longer term
   - regexp processing of workspace files instead of formal XML processing
   - needs more calibration on txt/symbol resizing according to printout
   dpi change


This module is NOT for professional prints but for quick&dirty and
hopefully comfortable
printout making.

Tested under:

   - Linux: 7.0.4,7.2 latest, 7.3 weekly snapshot
   - Windows: 7.3 binary OSGeo4W


Source and doc are here:

https://github.com/kuszinger/giscomgrass7addons/tree/master/m.printws

Robert
