papyrus_ogcproxy

papyrus_ogcproxy provides an easy and convenient method for embeding an OGC proxy in Pyramid applications.

The source code of papyrus_ogcproxy is straightforward, so if papyrus_ogcproxy doesn't do what you want, open its source code, get inspiration, and write your own code.

Install

papyrus_ogcproxy can be installed with easy_install:

$ easy_install papyrus_ogcproxy

Often you'll want to make papyrus_ogcproxy a dependency of your Pyramid application, which is done by adding papyrus_ogcproxy to the install_requires list defined in the Pyramid application's setup.py file.

Set up

Using papyrus_ogcproxy to set an OGC proxy in a Pyramid application is easy.

Edit the application's main file, __init__.py, and register papyrus_ogcproxy using the Configurator.include method:

def main(global_config, **settings):

    config = Configurator(settings=settings)

    import papyrus_ogcproxy
    config.include(papyrus_ogcproxy)

That's it! The OGC proxy is available at /ogcproxy.
