DESCRIPTION

Module db.csw.admin allows to handle csw server.

NOTES

For dependencies and installation instructions see wiki page.

USAGE

For using this module must be installed pycsw libraries. Default path to configure folder is setup to pycsw install folder(LINUX) /var/www/html/pycsw in another case, path to config file must by set by user.

Configure file

In configure file must be setup few parameters for proper work of pycsw library.

server.home
Path to folder with installed pycsw
database.homez
Path to database with data of catalog. By default is set to SQLite database. E.g GRASS GIS sqlite database.
server.url
For using local serever this parameter should by set to http://localhost:8000/
