[GRASSGUI] GEM wizard in wxPython

Hi,

basically, there are two possibilities: Use standard python packages or
using CLI commands. In current wxGRASS gui, commands are used, to avoid
new dependences. So, I would vote for some "wget+parsing" sollution.

For example, how to create wizard using wxpython, see wizard example in
wxpython demo
(http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/wxpython/wxPython-demo-2.8.4.0.tar.bz2)

I put together nearly-working new location wizard, if you will be able
to follow the code.

Hi all,
Anybody could "mentor" a wxPython newbie into getting a GEM Wizard up and
running?
:)
1-List some predefined Extensions
2-Select any, then download it
3-Run Gem on the .tgz file downloaded (supposed you already are in root)
Thanks
Yann

Hi Jachym,

Yes, the wget+parsing is tempting, i just need to figure out how to do all
that...

could you tell me where i can find your New Location Wizard, maybe I'll get a
hint to do that for GEM.

Thanks
Yann

well,

svn co https://grasssvn.itc.it/svn/grassaddons/trunk/grassaddons addons

cd addons/gui/

$EDITOR location_wizard.py

but it is a mess - I need to clean this. try to take it really only as
an example.

Created a script for actual GEM installs:

GRASS 6.3.cvs (root):/home/yann/coding/grassaddons/gipe > m.gem -a
--21:10:00--
http://www.uni-kiel.de/ufg/dateienDucke/AdvancedViewshedAnalysis.tar.gz

GRASS 6.3.cvs (root):/home/yann/coding/grassaddons/gipe >

Now, the only problem is to get into superuser permission while running the
script.

Any idea anyone?

Jachym,

I did a bunch of update work on the wizard awhile back, so it is almost
done. Still waiting on some kind of update to g.proj or g.setproj to make
the manual location creation work. I guess we could just go ahead with the
epsg, georeferenced file, and related parts and ask again for an update to
make the other part work.

Michael

well,
svn co https://grasssvn.itc.it/svn/grassaddons/trunk/grassaddons addons
cd addons/gui/
$EDITOR location_wizard.py
but it is a mess - I need to clean this. try to take it really only as
an example.

while ago, I had to fix some bugs to :-) Yes, he have to make g.setproj
more usable for our needs. I'll look at it

Jachym,

On my way to work, I was thinking that maybe we already have the tools we
need with g.proj. We should be able to create a default WIND file, PROJINFO,
and PROJUNITS files.
