Re: [QGIS-Developer] macOS installs -- Lutra

2019-06-05 Thread Jonas
you can also install qgis from the osgeo homebrew repositories which uses
homebrews python

brew tap osgeo/osgeo4mac
brew install osgeo-qgis

be aware that the installation takes a long time (> 2 hours on my laptop) to
install and uses plenty of packages

Depends.  If you're using a distribution that doesn't have the necessary
dependencies for the newer version, the newer version will never reach the repo
for that distribution.

But you'll still get the notification about the latest version and in this case
it just means that you not only have to upgrade QGIS to get it.

[QGIS-Developer] macOS installs -- Lutra

2019-06-05 Thread Anthony DeBarros
Hi, folks,

I notice that the excellent installer for macOS from Lutra now says
"deprecated" on its page.
https://lutraconsulting.github.io/qgis-mac-packager/

I liked using that installer as it didn't require me to install Python 3.6
from Python.org, which has proven to conflict with my Python 3 homebrew
setup.

I remember hearing that there might be some updates to QGIS macOS
packaging. Can someone share the latest info?

Thanks,

See these env vars for setting up access to an authentication database from
within Server:
https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/blob/master/src/server/qgsserver.cpp#L234-L238

I have not tested this with recent QGIS versions, but maybe someone who has
worked with Server and the auth system may have (Alessandro?).

Most non-interactive auth method plugins should work, e.g. Basic, PKI, etc.
The OAuth2 auth plugin will not work if using a grant flow that requires
interaction; instead, use Resource Owner (the plugin doesn't support Client
Credentials grant flow).

Of course, this means the qgis-auth.db will need pre-populated using QGIS
Desktop prior to use by Server. You will probably want to create a new
profile, so that no other credentials are stored in the SQLite qgis-auth.db
file, or restart QGIS specifically to work on a specific qgis-auth.db file
(using option --authdbdirectory ).

I have investigated adding auth support to Oracle in the past, but did have
the chance to implement it. Generally, since it uses a
QgsDataSourceURI object for configurations, at least the Basic auth method
plugin's update function should be easy to adapt:
https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/blame/master/src/auth/basic/qgsauthbasicmethod.cpp#L87

This means probably adding a conditional branch based upon oracle provider,
similar to what was done for ogr/gdal:
https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/blame/master/src/auth/basic/qgsauthbasicmethod.cpp#L201-L202

Then, it is a matter of just integrating the auth updating during Oracle
connections (and its pool), and adding the auth widget into the Oracle
connection GUI. This would be similar to how Postgres provider was updated
to support the auth system.

Re: [QGIS-Developer] Will the resource sharing plugin be ported to a core plugin? Or or similar functionality implemented?

2019-06-05 Thread Áron Gergely


Thank you for Alessandro!

I am aware of the plugin being available in QGIS 3 -  I am just 
exploring possibilities.


We are looking to create a plugin that would use external resources
to create map layouts.

Then the current solution is either replicating the functionality of the 
resource sharing plugin or instructing the users to get the resources 
via the resource sharing plugin.


...or finding a way to embed these resources in the project file.

Thanks again,

Best regards,
Aron Gergely

Hi, that was indeed the original plan.

But some developers raised general concerns against including other 
plugins in the core, that's why the idea was abandoned.


The plugin has been ported to  QGIS 3 a few months ago, so it is now 
available.




I have read a mention of this among the issues+comments on the
plugin's
github, see here:

https://github.com/akbargumbira/qgis_resources_sharing/issues/51#issuecomment-344397441

I have asked the developer of the plugin a while ago but received no
response. I thought perhaps someone here knows whether this is (was)
indeed the plan?
Otherwise, would there be a plan to implement its functionality?
And if
so, do you need help doing that?

For the record, https://dronie.osgeo.org (login with OSGeo credentials)
is already docker-based, and is currently used by both GEOS and PostGIS.
See https://git.osgeo.org/gitea/postgis/postgis/commits/branch/svn-trunk
and https://git.osgeo.org/gitea/geos/geos/commits/branch/master for
examples (those green-or-red tiny icons near each commit).

NOTE that an externally hosted instance of Drone (the open source software
used for https://dronie.osgeo.org) can be pointed to github.com for
getting used to it. See examples of that here:
https://github.com/postgis/postgis/pull/403
In the case above, the _same_ CI configuration is read by both the
OSGeo hosted instance (building PRs opened on https://git.osgeo.org)
_and_ by the externally hosted instance (building PRs opened on github)

migration! And now he can't give it back to me? 


Not a big issue. I can live with it. As long as the core developers have
some benefit from the issue migration, then I'm fine. 


Personally I just have to get used to the new issue system on github. Of
course, it takes some time to learn a new system. And no - not
everything is easy and self-explaining on github. I would say, because
it is a really open system, that it might even be harder to use than
Redmine for new users who never used github before (except for the
Mantra of course ;-) ).


Once again:  the mantra was not necessary for redmine - shortly after getting
osgeo ids was requiring the mantra, we enabled direct registration in redmine
available (and openid was available too).


you are right of course. And the Mantra is still required for
plugin-authors. So nothing really improved by the move to Github
regarding the Mantra. 


And for the open nature of github: you cannot assign owners (see above) - and
you cannot integrate an external ticket system.


Sorry - I wasn't very clear what I meant with "open nature" of GitHub: i
mean the "open" (unstructured) way of categorizing issues in Github.
Labels being the only way of structuring anything in the issues, whereas
we had versions, code areas, state, feature vs bug and more in Redmine.
If people don't use the label system consciously we quickly end up with
a big mess. That is my concern. 


But you can use tons of other services, that make you more dependent on github
(like travis) ;)


And I hope that the open nature of GitHub doesn't lead to a big mess. For
developers, the github integration is definitely very nice though.

But everything will be easier when we move from Github to Gitlab ;-)


As if that ever would happen - but I was hoping the same for the redmine
migration - so you never know ;)


Who knows ...

No, I don't you can claim other people's (or bot's ;)) work either.

And the many 10's of 1000s of $$ it will cost to migrate all the CI
and integration scripts. The values of those should never be
understated.


IMO now that's dockerized it should not be that hard to move to 
another CI infrastructure (not that I'm proposing that now).


I think Nyall was talking about more than the CI, there are many scripts 
and integrations running in the background on which we rely from day to 
day, not just the CI.


The hours to migrate them would be immense. And the hours lost by people 
because service X is no longer working although they had relied on it 
must also not be ignored. It's just outsourced costs in the end.

Hi all, 

Thanks for your help and tips! 


Is there a way to manually re-assign the author of the migrated ticket
from qgib back to myself? 


Personally I just have to get used to the new issue system on github. Of
course, it takes some time to learn a new system. And no - not
everything is easy and self-explaining on github. I would say, because
it is a really open system, that it might even be harder to use than

Yes - qgib could not impersonate the reporter when creating the issues.

You can still go to redmine to find your tickets - and use the links from there
to go to the github version.

Looking for "Author Name: Andreas Neumann (@andreasneumann) Original" 
produces 249 tickets - which matches the count on redmine.
