Demo Server

There is a demo server on https://demo.pygeoapi.io running the latest (Docker) version from the master branch of this repo. pygeoapi runs there at https://demo.pygeoapi.io/master.

The demo server setup and config is maintained within a seperate GH repo: https://github.com/geopython/demo.pygeoapi.io.

Docker

Best/easiest way to run pygeoapi is to use Docker. On DockerHub pygeoapi Docker Images are available.

Please read the docker/README for details of the Docker implementation.

Unit Testing

Unit tests are run using pytest from the top project folder:

pytest tests

NB beware that some tests require Provider dependencies (libraries) to be available and that the ElasticSearch and Postgres tests require their respective backend servers running.

Environment variables are set in the file pytest.ini.
