This repository contains the default WebGIS client used within the SHOGun project.
The client was initialized with create-react-geo-app.
We recommend to install the client via the prebuilt Docker image docker-public.terrestris.de/terrestris/shogun-gis-client.
Even if the client can be used without any backend providing a context configuration, it is designed to run on top of a SHOGun backend while reading the configuration from the /applications REST interface. To specify a configuration the query parameter applicationId must be set (e.g. https://localhost/client/?applicationId=18 to get the configuration for the application with the ID 18).
If no ID is given (e.g. because no backend is available) or the requested application is not accessible, the client will load a fallback configuration.
It is possible to load the application config from a static URL with the configuration parameter staticAppConfigUrl.
To use print apps for different languages just name them after the language code (ISO_639-1). The print app that has the name of the currently selected language will be used.
Several global settings for the client can be configured via the gis-client-config.js file:
| Name | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|
| shogunBase | The base URL of SHOGun, e.g. /api or https://my-shogun.org/. If set to false no SHOGUN requests will be made by the application. |

| search.solrQueryConfig.tagPost | HTML tag applied after search highlight. | </b> |
| search.solrQueryConfig.requireFieldMatch | Only query terms aligning with the field being highlighted will in turn be highlighted. | true |
The configuration file is not bundled and will be loaded before application start from ./gis-client-config.js. Typically you want to override the file in a production environment and you can pass a custom file by mounting the desired one directly into the nginx container of the client. For example:
version: '3.7'
services:
shogun-gis-client:
image: docker-public.terrestris.de/terrestris/shogun-gis-client:latest
volumes:
- ./gis-client-config.js:/usr/share/nginx/html/gis-client-config.js
(…)The shogun-docker repository shows an alternative (and the preferred) way by providing the configuration file out of the root-nginx service while having support for dynamic environment variable replacement.
Checkout the repository and install all required dependencies via
npm i
While it's absolutely possible to run the client via
npm run start
to have the application available at https://localhost:8080 you usually want to start the full SHOGun stack for development. Please refer to the shogun-docker repository for further details.
Injects the local version of shogun-gis-client into another project. This can be useful when developing https://github.com/terrestris/shogun-gis-client-plugins
npx watch-build-copy ./src "npm run build:dist" ./dist/ ../shogun-gis-client-plugins/node_modules/@terrestris/shogun-gis-client/distEnsure using the latest version of the E2E-Test package:
npm update @terrestris/shogun-e2e-tests
Set your domain including potential paths as the ´process.env.HOST´ variable in the global-setup.js. For example:
shogun.terrestris.de
To run the E2E-tests locally just use the following command in the commandline:
npx playwright test
The build artifact of the client can either be built via
npm run build
or directly included in an nginx based Docker image via:
docker build -t shogun-gis-client:1.0.0 .
Run docker run -p 80:80 shogun-gis-client:1.0.0 to start it locally.
In short: yes, please contribute as you see fit 😊, we're looking forward to your input.
Be bold and open PRs and issues for anything that bugs you or for all the ideas you want to share. We'd be happy to help you make your first steps or even bigger changes.
