Please, prefer pre-compiled packages over the manual way described below unless you know ''what'' and ''how'', you want to learn and help testing.'''&lt;/span&gt;<br /> &lt;/div&gt;<br /> <br /> == Very Important notes ==<br /> <br /> * Pre-compiled packages and backports are available from [https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuGIS UbuntuGIS] via their [https://launchpad.net/~ubuntugis/+archive/ppa/ ppa.launchpad] repositories. '''This is by far the simplest and fastest solution. Please prefer it over the manual way described below.'''<br /> <br /> * To build an updated version of GRASS or support libraries unmodified, in most cases it will be easier to use an automated build tool such as ''pbuilder'', ''debuild'' or ''cowbuilder''. See the &lt;source lang=&quot;bash&quot; enclose=&quot;none&quot;&gt;debian/&lt;/source&gt; directory in the source code for details.<br /> <br /> * Some things change fast and therefore it is expected that the instructions might fail. Please inform the grass-user list in case something just does not work (like for example non-available dependecies/packages from the repositories) or update this page respectively.<br /> <br /> * GRASS version 6.5 exists for development purposes, testing features to-be backported to version 6.4. As such it may include unstable code and is not intended for production and end-users.<br /> <br /> * An alternate method is to use the DebianGIS packaging scripts, which enable a lot of this to happen automatically (see [https://svn.osgeo.org/grass/grass/branches/releasebranch_6_4/debian/README.debian debian/README.debian] in the GRASS Subversion source code repository). Specifically, this command will get you 90% of the way there: &lt;source lang=&quot;bash&quot;&gt;sudo apt-get build-dep grass&lt;/source&gt;<br /> <br /> == Hints ==<br /> <br /> * Usually, the installation of compiled code is done by using the &lt;source lang=&quot;bash&quot; enclose=&quot;none&quot;&gt;make&lt;/source&gt; tool. Alternatively, this can be done by using the ''checkinstall'' tool (i.e., &lt;source lang=&quot;bash&quot; enclose=&quot;none&quot;&gt;sudo checkinstall&lt;/source&gt; instead of &lt;source lang=&quot;bash&quot; enclose=&quot;none&quot;&gt;sudo make install&lt;/source&gt;) which eases off removal of packages. If ''checkinstall'' fails to deliver, please note some related bugs: [https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/checkinstall/+bug/78455 78455] and [https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/checkinstall/+bug/599163 599163]. Useful information on using ''checkinstall'': [https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingEasyHowTo Compiling things on Ubuntu the Easy Way].<br /> <br /> * In multi-core processors, the compilation performance can be boosted by using ''-j'' switches (e.g. &lt;source lang=&quot;bash&quot; enclose=&quot;none&quot;&gt;make -j2&lt;/source&gt; or &lt;source lang=&quot;bash&quot; enclose=&quot;none&quot;&gt;make -j3&lt;/source&gt; or even &lt;source lang=&quot;bash&quot; enclose=&quot;none&quot;&gt;make -j4&lt;/source&gt;) which specify the number of jobs (commands) to run simultaneously.<br /> <br /> == Dependencies ==<br /> <br /> === Current stable Ubuntu version ===<br /> <br /> The following dependencies concern [http://releases.ubuntu.com/quantal/ Ubuntu Quantal Quetzal (12.10)]<br /> <br /> * First, update the system from the repositories&lt;source lang=&quot;bash&quot;&gt;<br /> sudo apt-get update &amp;&amp; sudo apt-get upgrade<br /> &lt;/source&gt;<br /> <br /> * then, install ''SQLite'', ''SVN'' and ''dependencies'' for compiling PROJ, GEOS, GDAL/OGR, GRASS, GDAL-GRASS-PLUGIN; the following action will also install various dependencies (listed in the command line as &lt;source lang=&quot;bash&quot; enclose=&quot;none&quot;&gt;The following extra packages will be installed:&lt;/source&gt;...):&lt;br/&gt;<br /> &lt;ul&gt;<br /> &lt;source lang=&quot;bash&quot;&gt;<br /> # this is a single command, please copy-paste it entirely into the terminal:<br /> sudo apt-get install \<br /> build-essential \<br /> flex make bison gcc libgcc1 g++ cmake ccache \<br /> python python-dev python-qt4 python-qt4-dev \<br /> python-opengl \<br /> python-wxversion python-wxtools python-wxgtk2.8 \<br /> python-dateutil libgsl0-dev python-numpy \<br /> wx2.8-headers wx-common libwxgtk2.8-dev libwxgtk2.8-dbg \<br /> libwxbase2.8-dev libwxbase2.8-dbg \<br /> libncurses5-dev \<br /> zlib1g-dev gettext \<br /> libtiff-dev libpnglite-dev \<br /> tcl8.5-dev tk8.5-dev \<br /> libcairo2 libcairo2-dev \<br /> sqlite3 libsqlite3-dev \<br /> libpq-dev \<br /> libreadline6 libreadline6-dev libfreetype6-dev \<br /> txt2tags \<br /> libfftw3-3 libfftw3-dev \<br /> libqt4-core libqt4-dbg libqt4-dev libqt4-gui libqt4-sql libqt4-qt3support \<br /> lsb-qt4 qt4-designer qt4-dev-tools qt4-doc qt4-qtconfig \<br /> libapt-pkg-perl resolvconf \<br /> libjasper-dev \<br /> ruby \<br /> subversion \<br /> ffmpeg ffmpeg2theora \<br /> libffmpegthumbnailer-dev \<br /> libavcodec-dev \<br /> libxmu-dev \<br /> libavformat-dev libswscale-dev \<br /> checkinstall \<br /> libglu1-mesa-dev libxmu-dev&lt;/source&gt;<br /> &lt;/ul&gt;<br /> <br /> * for mysql support, &lt;source lang=&quot;bash&quot; enclose=&quot;none&quot;&gt;libmysqlclient-dev&lt;/source&gt; is required &lt;source lang=&quot;bash&quot;&gt;<br /> sudo apt-get install libmysqlclient-dev<br /> &lt;/source&gt;<br /> <br /> * create a directory as a simple user where all source code is going to be stored -- in this example, a directory named &lt;source lang=&quot;bash&quot; enclose=&quot;none&quot;&gt;src&lt;/source&gt; under &lt;source lang=&quot;bash&quot; enclose=&quot;none&quot;&gt;/usr/local&lt;/source&gt; is created &lt;source lang=&quot;bash&quot;&gt;<br /> sudo mkdir /usr/local/src<br /> &lt;/source&gt;<br /> <br /> * take over directories ownerships ('''replace''' below the terms ''userid'' and ''groupid'' with a real &lt;source lang=&quot;bash&quot; enclose=&quot;none&quot;&gt;userid&lt;/source&gt;): &lt;source lang=&quot;bash&quot;&gt;<br /> sudo chown userid:groupid /usr/local/src&lt;/source&gt;<br /> <br /> * similarly, grant &lt;source lang=&quot;bash&quot; enclose=&quot;none&quot;&gt;rwx&lt;/source&gt; (read-write-execute) permissions for our ''userid'' and ''groupid'' onto the &lt;source lang=&quot;bash&quot; enclose=&quot;none&quot;&gt;src&lt;/source&gt; directory: &lt;source lang=&quot;bash&quot;&gt;<br /> sudo chmod ug+rwx /usr/local/src&lt;/source&gt;<br /> <br /> === Earlier Ubuntu versions ===<br /> <br /> For [http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/ earlier Ubuntu versions], '''watch out for dependency differences!'''

Please, prefer pre-compiled packages over the manual way described below unless you know ''what'' and ''how'', you want to learn and help testing.'''&lt;/span&gt;<br /> &lt;/div&gt;<br /> <br /> == Very Important notes ==<br /> <br /> * Pre-compiled packages and backports are available from [https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuGIS UbuntuGIS] via their [https://launchpad.net/~ubuntugis/+archive/ppa/ ppa.launchpad] repositories. '''This is by far the simplest and fastest solution. Please prefer it over the manual way described below.'''<br /> <br /> * To build an updated version of GRASS or support libraries unmodified, in most cases it will be easier to use an automated build tool such as ''pbuilder'', ''debuild'' or ''cowbuilder''. See the &lt;source lang=&quot;bash&quot; enclose=&quot;none&quot;&gt;debian/&lt;/source&gt; directory in the source code for details.<br /> <br /> * Some things change fast and therefore it is expected that the instructions might fail. Please inform the grass-user list in case something just does not work (like for example non-available dependecies/packages from the repositories) or update this page respectively.<br /> <br /> * GRASS version 6.5 exists for development purposes, testing features to-be backported to version 6.4. As such it may include unstable code and is not intended for production and end-users.<br /> <br /> * An alternate method is to use the DebianGIS packaging scripts, which enable a lot of this to happen automatically (see [https://svn.osgeo.org/grass/grass/branches/releasebranch_6_4/debian/README.debian debian/README.debian] in the GRASS Subversion source code repository). Specifically, this command will get you 90% of the way there: &lt;source lang=&quot;bash&quot;&gt;sudo apt-get build-dep grass&lt;/source&gt;<br /> <br /> == Hints ==<br /> <br /> * Usually, the installation of compiled code is done by using the &lt;source lang=&quot;bash&quot; enclose=&quot;none&quot;&gt;make&lt;/source&gt; tool. Alternatively, this can be done by using the ''checkinstall'' tool (i.e., &lt;source lang=&quot;bash&quot; enclose=&quot;none&quot;&gt;sudo checkinstall&lt;/source&gt; instead of &lt;source lang=&quot;bash&quot; enclose=&quot;none&quot;&gt;sudo make install&lt;/source&gt;) which eases off removal of packages. If ''checkinstall'' fails to deliver, please note some related bugs: [https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/checkinstall/+bug/78455 78455] and [https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/checkinstall/+bug/599163 599163]. Useful information on using ''checkinstall'': [https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingEasyHowTo Compiling things on Ubuntu the Easy Way].<br /> <br /> * In multi-core processors, the compilation performance can be boosted by using ''-j'' switches (e.g. &lt;source lang=&quot;bash&quot; enclose=&quot;none&quot;&gt;make -j2&lt;/source&gt; or &lt;source lang=&quot;bash&quot; enclose=&quot;none&quot;&gt;make -j3&lt;/source&gt; or even &lt;source lang=&quot;bash&quot; enclose=&quot;none&quot;&gt;make -j4&lt;/source&gt;) which specify the number of jobs (commands) to run simultaneously.<br /> <br /> == Dependencies ==<br /> <br /> === Current stable Ubuntu version ===<br /> <br /> The following dependencies concern [http://releases.ubuntu.com/quantal/ Ubuntu Quantal Quetzal (12.10)]<br /> <br /> * First, update the system from the repositories&lt;source lang=&quot;bash&quot;&gt;<br /> sudo apt-get update &amp;&amp; sudo apt-get upgrade<br /> &lt;/source&gt;<br /> <br /> * then, install ''SQLite'', ''SVN'' and ''dependencies'' for compiling PROJ, GEOS, GDAL/OGR, GRASS, GDAL-GRASS-PLUGIN; the following action will also install various dependencies (listed in the command line as &lt;source lang=&quot;bash&quot; enclose=&quot;none&quot;&gt;The following extra packages will be installed:&lt;/source&gt;...):&lt;br/&gt;<br /> &lt;ul&gt;<br /> &lt;source lang=&quot;bash&quot;&gt;<br /> # this is a single command, please copy-paste it entirely into the terminal:<br /> sudo apt-get install \<br /> build-essential \<br /> flex make bison gcc libgcc1 g++ cmake ccache \<br /> python python-dev python-qt4 python-qt4-dev \<br /> python-opengl \<br /> python-wxversion python-wxtools python-wxgtk2.8 \<br /> python-dateutil libgsl0-dev python-numpy \<br /> wx2.8-headers wx-common libwxgtk2.8-dev libwxgtk2.8-dbg \<br /> libwxbase2.8-dev libwxbase2.8-dbg \<br /> libncurses5-dev \<br /> zlib1g-dev gettext \<br /> libtiff-dev libpnglite-dev \<br /> tcl8.5-dev tk8.5-dev \<br /> libcairo2 libcairo2-dev \<br /> sqlite3 libsqlite3-dev \<br /> libpq-dev \<br /> libreadline6 libreadline6-dev libfreetype6-dev \<br /> txt2tags \<br /> libfftw3-3 libfftw3-dev \<br /> libqt4-core libqt4-dbg libqt4-dev libqt4-gui libqt4-sql libqt4-qt3support \<br /> lsb-qt4 qt4-designer qt4-dev-tools qt4-doc qt4-qtconfig \<br /> libapt-pkg-perl resolvconf \<br /> libjasper-dev \<br /> ruby \<br /> subversion \<br /> ffmpeg ffmpeg2theora \<br /> libffmpegthumbnailer-dev \<br /> libavcodec-dev \<br /> libxmu-dev \<br /> libavformat-dev libswscale-dev \<br /> checkinstall \<br /> libglu1-mesa-dev libxmu-dev&lt;/source&gt;<br /> &lt;/ul&gt;<br /> <br /> * for mysql support, &lt;source lang=&quot;bash&quot; enclose=&quot;none&quot;&gt;libmysqlclient-dev&lt;/source&gt; is required &lt;source lang=&quot;bash&quot;&gt;<br /> sudo apt-get install libmysqlclient-dev<br /> &lt;/source&gt;<br /> <br /> * create a directory as a simple user where all source code is going to be stored -- in this example, a directory named &lt;source lang=&quot;bash&quot; enclose=&quot;none&quot;&gt;src&lt;/source&gt; under &lt;source lang=&quot;bash&quot; enclose=&quot;none&quot;&gt;/usr/local&lt;/source&gt; is created &lt;source lang=&quot;bash&quot;&gt;<br /> sudo mkdir /usr/local/src<br /> &lt;/source&gt;<br /> <br /> * take over directories ownerships ('''replace''' below the terms ''userid'' and ''groupid'' with a real &lt;source lang=&quot;bash&quot; enclose=&quot;none&quot;&gt;userid&lt;/source&gt;): &lt;source lang=&quot;bash&quot;&gt;<br /> sudo chown userid:groupid /usr/local/src&lt;/source&gt;<br /> <br /> * similarly, grant &lt;source lang=&quot;bash&quot; enclose=&quot;none&quot;&gt;rwx&lt;/source&gt; (read-write-execute) permissions for our ''userid'' and ''groupid'' onto the &lt;source lang=&quot;bash&quot; enclose=&quot;none&quot;&gt;src&lt;/source&gt; directory: &lt;source lang=&quot;bash&quot;&gt;<br /> sudo chmod ug+rwx /usr/local/src&lt;/source&gt;<br /> <br /> === Earlier Ubuntu versions ===<br /> <br /> For [http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/ earlier Ubuntu versions], '''watch out for dependency differences!'''

Please, prefer pre-compiled packages over the manual way described below unless you know ''what'' and ''how'', you want to learn and help testing.'''&lt;/span&gt;<br /> &lt;/div&gt;<br /> <br /> == Very Important notes ==<br /> <br /> * Pre-compiled packages and backports are available from [https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuGIS UbuntuGIS] via their [https://launchpad.net/~ubuntugis/+archive/ppa/ ppa.launchpad] repositories. '''This is by far the simplest and fastest solution. Please prefer it over the manual way described below.'''<br /> <br /> * To build an updated version of GRASS or support libraries unmodified, in most cases it will be easier to use an automated build tool such as ''pbuilder'', ''debuild'' or ''cowbuilder''. See the &lt;source lang=&quot;bash&quot; enclose=&quot;none&quot;&gt;debian/&lt;/source&gt; directory in the source code for details.<br /> <br /> * Some things change fast and therefore it is expected that the instructions might fail. Please inform the grass-user list in case something just does not work (like for example non-available dependecies/packages from the repositories) or update this page respectively.<br /> <br /> * GRASS version 6.5 exists for development purposes, testing features to-be backported to version 6.4. As such it may include unstable code and is not intended for production and end-users.<br /> <br /> * An alternate method is to use the DebianGIS packaging scripts, which enable a lot of this to happen automatically (see [https://svn.osgeo.org/grass/grass/branches/releasebranch_6_4/debian/README.debian debian/README.debian] in the GRASS Subversion source code repository). Specifically, this command will get you 90% of the way there: &lt;source lang=&quot;bash&quot;&gt;sudo apt-get build-dep grass&lt;/source&gt;<br /> <br /> == Hints ==<br /> <br /> * Usually, the installation of compiled code is done by using the &lt;source lang=&quot;bash&quot; enclose=&quot;none&quot;&gt;make&lt;/source&gt; tool. Alternatively, this can be done by using the ''checkinstall'' tool (i.e., &lt;source lang=&quot;bash&quot; enclose=&quot;none&quot;&gt;sudo checkinstall&lt;/source&gt; instead of &lt;source lang=&quot;bash&quot; enclose=&quot;none&quot;&gt;sudo make install&lt;/source&gt;) which eases off removal of packages.

<p>⚠️Timmie: added a scipy matlab IO example</p> <hr /> <div>''(for discussions on the new GRASS GUI, see [[GRASS GUI|here]])''<br /> <br /> ==Python SIGs==<br /> Python Special Interest Groups are focused collaborative efforts to develop, improve, or maintain specific Python resources. Each SIG has a charter, a coordinator, a mailing list, and a directory on the Python website. SIG membership is informal, defined by subscription to the SIG's mailing list. Anyone can join a SIG, and participate in the development discussions via the SIG's mailing list. Below is the list of currently active Python SIGs, with links to their resources. <br /> <br /> See more at http://www.python.org/community/sigs/<br /> <br /> ==Writing Python scripts in GRASS==<br /> <br /> Python is a programming language which is more powerful than shell scripting but easier and more forgiving than C.<br /> The Python script can contain simple module description definitions which will be processed with {{cmd|g.parser}}, as shown in the example below. In this way with no extra coding a GUI can be built, inputs checked, and a skeleton help page can be generated automatically.

Using a subclass of numpy.memmap lets you use files which may<br /> be much larger, but processing the entire array in one go is likely to<br /> produce in-memory results of a similar size.<br /> <br /> One may also use the scipy matlab interface:<br /> <br /> ### SH: in GRASS ###<br /> r.out.mat input=elevation output=elev.mat<br /> <br /> ### PY ###<br /> import scipy.io as sio<br /> # load data<br /> elev = sio.loadmat('elev.mat')<br /> # retrive the actual array. the data set contains also the spatial reference<br /> elev.get('map_data')<br /> data = elev.get('map_data')<br /> # a first simple plot<br /> import pylab<br /> pylab.plot(data)<br /> pylab.show()<br /> # the contour plot<br /> pylab.contour(data)<br /> # obviously data needs to ne reversed<br /> import numpy as np<br /> data_rev = data[::-1]<br /> pylab.contour(data_rev)<br /> # =&gt; this is a quick plot. basemap mapping may provide a nicer map!<br /> #######<br /> <br /> === Python-SWIG-GRASS interface ===<br /> There is a prototype GRASS-SWIG interface available (thanks to Sajith VK), find it in GRASS 6-CVS: '''swig/python/'''. Draft documentation is [http://download.osgeo.org/grass/grass6_progman/swig/ here]. It now wraps both raster and vector data C functions plus the general GIS (G_*()) functions.<br /> <br /> Background: [http://www.swig.org SWIG] (Simplified Wrapper and Interface Generator) is: <br /> <br /> * A compiler that turns ANSI C/C++ declarations into scripting language interfaces.<br /> * Completely automated (produces a fully working Python extension module). <br /> * Language neutral.

<p>⚠️Timmie: /* Ubuntu */ link to specific page</p> <hr /> <div>== How to do compilation and installation of GRASS 6? ==<br /> <br /> Here we explain the procedure to compile GRASS from SVN, but it also applies to official GRASS 6 releases.<br /> <br /> ''For installation of precompiled binary packages, see the main [[Installation Guide]].''<br /> <br /> For detailed information on compilation, please see the [http://grass.itc.it/grass61/source/INSTALL INSTALL] file in the source code.<br /> <br /> === Prerequisites ===<br /> <br /> GRASS needs at least two extra libraries: PROJ and GDAL/OGR<br /> <br /> ''Note: if you want to have DBMS support in GDAL (subsequently in GRASS) you have to perform the &quot;Optional&quot; steps below as well.''<br /> <br /> * [http://proj.maptools.org PROJ4] for management of projections (with proj-datumgrid-1.3.zip support)<br /> * Optional: [http://geos.refractions.net GEOS]<br /> * Optional: [http://www.postgresql.org PostgreSQL], [http://www.mysql.org mySQL], [http://www.unixodbc.org unixODBC], [http://www.sqlite.org SQLite] (SQLite is needed for QGIS)<br /> * [http://www.gdal.org GDAL/OGR] for reading and writing various GIS data formats (interoperability)<br /> <br /> You have to install these two libraries '''first'''.<br /> <br /> It is easiest to obtain a prepackaged version of these libraries (e.g., .rpm; .deb) for your particular operating system and run the corresponding package installation (e.g., rpm -Uhv packagename.rpm; apt-get) in a terminal window. Take care to also install the development packages of these libraries (...-devel packages). If there is no prepackage version, then you will have to download the source code (see links above, source code packages usually ends in .tar.gz or .zip) and compile it (you must have a C compiler installed as part of your operating system). The Web sites show the steps to compile the libraries.<br /> <br /> <br /> Other libraries needed to run GRASS are listed on the {{website|grass64/source/REQUIREMENTS.html|requirements page}}.<br /> <br /> To compile, you will also need the respective &quot;-devel&quot; packages.<br /> <br /> === Generic Compilation and installation procedure ===<br /> <br /> * It is wise that compilation processes are carried out as a normal user: If you want to get the source code in a place where you do not have write permissions (e.g. in /usr/local/src/) just follow this:<br /> cd /usr/local/src/ <br /> su -c 'mkdir grass6'<br /> su -c 'chown yourlogin:yourgroup grass6'<br /> <br /> Otherwise if you have permissions just continue as a normal user:<br /> cd /usr/local/src/<br /> svn checkout ...<br /> <br /> * do a code checkout from the SVN source code repository<br /> : checkout the latest GRASS 6.x from SVN (see: {{twiki|DownloadSource}})<br /> <br /> * in the grass6 directory, you will find the precious INSTALL file, open it with your favourite pager/editor and read it carefully!<br /> <br /> * run configure with parameters to adapt the compile process to your own system. To see what options can be passed to it, run configure --help. <br /> &lt;!-- The minimum set of configure parameters is <br /> ./configure ### --&gt;<br /> It may (!) look like this:<br /> <br /> ./configure \<br /> --with-cxx \<br /> --with-sqlite \<br /> --with-postgres-libs=/usr/include/pgsql/libpq \<br /> --with-postgres-includes=/usr/include/pgsql \<br /> --with-freetype \<br /> --with-freetype-includes=/usr/include/freetype2 \<br /> --with-motif \<br /> --with-proj-share=/usr/share/proj<br /> <br /> You may have to explicitly state the path for certain packages (i.e., gdal). The Unix 'locate' command will come in handy for finding the path of the package you need (you may have to run locate as root ex: sudo locate gdal-config).<br /> <br /> Please note that the paths mentioned may widely vary due to the distribution used.<br /> See [[Compile_and_Install#Platform_Specific_Notes|Platform Specific Notes]] below.<br /> <br /> Depending on your needs it may be a good idea to include debugging hooks.<br /> : See [[GRASS_Debugging#Compile_Time_Setup]].<br /> CFLAGS=&quot;-ggdb -Wall -Werror-implicit-function-declaration&quot; ./configure ...<br /> <br /> <br /> At the end of configuration process you should get report not much different from this:<br /> <br /> GRASS is now configured for: i686-pc-linux-gnu<br /> <br /> Source directory: /usr/src/grass6<br /> Build directory: /usr/src/grass6<br /> Installation directory: /usr/local/grass-6.3.svn<br /> Startup script in directory: ${exec_prefix}/bin<br /> C compiler: gcc -g -O2 <br /> C++ compiler: c++ -g -O2<br /> FORTRAN compiler: <br /> Building shared libraries: yes<br /> 64bit support: no<br /> <br /> NVIZ: yes<br /> <br /> BLAS support: no<br /> C++ support: yes<br /> DWG support: no<br /> FFMPEG support: no<br /> FFTW support: yes<br /> FreeType support: yes<br /> GDAL support: yes<br /> GLw support: no<br /> JPEG support: yes<br /> LAPACK support: no<br /> Large File Support (LFS): no<br /> Motif support: no<br /> MySQL support: no<br /> NLS support: no<br /> ODBC support: no<br /> OGR support: yes<br /> OpenGL(R) support: yes<br /> PNG support: yes<br /> PostgreSQL support: yes<br /> Readline support: no<br /> SQLite support: no<br /> Tcl/Tk support: yes<br /> TIFF support: yes<br /> X11 support: yes<br /> <br /> * Let's compile it (takes a little while...)!<br /> make<br /> * At the end, you should get report not much different from this:<br /> ----------------------------------------------------------------------<br /> Following modules are missing the 'description.html' file in src code:<br /> ----------------------------------------------------------------------<br /> GRASS GIS compilation log<br /> -------------------------<br /> Started compilation: Ne kvě 28 13:18:43 CEST 2006<br /> --<br /> Errors in:<br /> --<br /> Finished compilation: Ne kvě 28 13:43:40 CEST 2006<br /> (In case of errors please change into the directory with error and run 'make')<br /> <br /> * If there is any error, change directory to directory with error and run &quot;make&quot; again.

Here a list of problems with solution:<br /> <br /> * error: X11/Xlib.h: No such file or directory<br /> ** this suggests that you don't have the X headers installed<br /> ** Solution: Install the libx11-dev package<br /> <br /> === Optimization ===<br /> <br /> GCC and other compilers support [http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-4.3.3/gcc/Optimize-Options.html#Optimize-Options optimization]<br /> <br /> If you would like to set compiler optimisations, for a possibly faster binary, type (don't enter a &quot;;&quot; anywhere):<br /> <br /> CFLAGS=-O ./configure<br /> or,<br /> setenv CFLAGS -O<br /> ./configure<br /> <br /> whichever works on your shell. Use -O2 instead of -O if your compiler supports this (note: O is the letter, not zero). Using the &quot;gcc&quot; compiler, you can also specify processor specific flags (examples, please suggest better settings to us):<br /> <br /> CFLAGS=&quot;-mcpu=athlon -O2&quot; # AMD Athlon processor with code optimisations<br /> CFLAGS=&quot;-mcpu=pentium&quot; # Intel Pentium processor<br /> CFLAGS=&quot;-mcpu=pentium4&quot; # Intel Pentium4 processor<br /> CFLAGS=&quot;-O2 -msse -msse2 -mfpmath=sse -minline-all-stringops&quot; # Intel XEON 64bit processor<br /> CFLAGS=&quot;-mtune=nocona -m64 -minline-all-stringops&quot; # Intel Pentium 64bit processor<br /> <br /> To find out optional CFLAGS for your platform, enter:<br /> gcc -dumpspecs<br /> <br /> See also: http://gcc.gnu.org/<br /> <br /> A real fast GRASS version (and small binaries) will be created with LDFLAGS set to &quot;stripping&quot; (but this disables debugging):<br /> <br /> CFLAGS=&quot;-O2 -mcpu=&lt;cpu_see_above&gt; -Wall&quot; LDFLAGS=&quot;-s&quot; ./configure<br /> <br /> === Configure options and their meanings ===<br /> <br /> For configure there are many options and some GRASS modules are built only if some options are set. Here are listed common configuration options with short explanation.<br /> <br /> * --prefix=/path - Sets path where GRASS will be installed. GRASS will reside in /path/grass-version.<br /> * --enable-largefile - Enables large (&gt;2Gb on 32bit systems) support. For current large file support status look at [[Large File Support]] page.<br /> * --with-cxx - Enables compilation of C++ code. Required for r.terraflow module.<br /> * --with-readline - Enables readline support. If readline is enabled, you can use its history/editing facilities when entering r.mapcalc expressions on stdin.<br /> * --with-glw - Enables GLw support. The GLw library provides OpenGL &quot;canvas&quot; widgets for Athena and Motif. <br /> <br /> That switch is unnecessary for normal compilation. It's only<br /> required for r3.showdspf, which isn't normally built; if you <br /> want it, you have build it manually <br /> (e.g. &quot;make -C raster3d/r3.showdspf&quot;).<br /> As similar functionality is now provided by NVIZ, r3.showdspf<br /> is deprecated.<br /> r3.showdspf uses the Motif widget (so you also need a <br /> Motif library, e.g. Lesstif or OpenMotif).<br /> [http://grass.itc.it/pipermail/grassuser/2006-December/037475.html Glynn Clements at GRASS-user mailing list]<br /> <br /> === Parallelized compilation on multi-core CPUs ===<br /> <br /> You can greatly accelerate the compilation of the GRASS code with the -j flag of &quot;make&quot; if you have a multi-core CPU system, e.g.<br /> make -j4<br /> <br /> == Addons ==<br /> <br /> === GRASS-GDAL plugin ===<br /> <br /> * see [[Compile and install GRASS and QGIS with GDAL/OGR Plugin]]<br /> <br /> === Compiled C modules ===<br /> <br /> '''Requirements:'''<br /> <br /> Either:<br /> * a binary GRASS package, or<br /> * source code which has been prepared with:<br /> ./configure [opionally flags]<br /> make libs<br /> <br /> Each of the [[GRASS_AddOns|addon]] modules should come with a Makefile. To compile it, just run:<br /> make MODULE_TOPDIR=/path/to/grass64/<br /> <br /> Installation (requires perhaps &quot;sudo&quot;):<br /> make MODULE_TOPDIR=/path/to/grass64/ install<br /> <br /> Note: Compiled addons may require a re-compilation if you changed/updated your GRASS standard binaries.<br /> <br /> ==== If binary comes with a -dev package ====<br /> <br /> Nowadays one does not need to the source code, nor compiling GRASS by oneself to be able to add add-ons. On Debian, you can just install the grass-dev package and then run:<br /> make MODULE_TOPDIR=/usr/lib/grass64/<br /> <br /> The grass-dev package essentially provides GRASS's &lt;tt&gt;include&lt;/tt&gt; header files and Make configuration files.<br /> <br /> === Scripts ===<br /> <br /> If the addon module is a script, it is sufficient to copy it into the (GRASS binaries) path somewhere. Alternatively, install addons into a separate GRASS addons binaries/scripts directory which is easier to maintain. It avoids getting clobbered every time you reinstall GRASS. To use these separately stored scripts, set and export the GRASS_ADDON_PATH environment variable before starting GRASS and it will automatically be added to the module search path (see the {{cmd|variables}} help page). To simplify this, do for example:<br /> <br /> # add in $HOME/.bashrc:<br /> GRASS_ADDON_PATH=/usr/local/grass/addons/<br /> export GRASS_ADDON_PATH<br /> <br /> <br /> [[Category:Development]]<br /> [[Category:Documentation]]<br /> [[Category:Installation]]</div>

An effort to unify these approaches would save much of the current difficulties in moving complex raster+vector data into a GMT-friendly format. A simple road map toward this goal is outlined:<br /> <br /> === Proper conversion of GRASS raster color data into GMT compatible CPT files ===<br /> David Finlayson's [http://david.p.finlayson.googlepages.com/gisscripts r.out.gmt.py] does a nice job of this. Once we decide on an optimal language to implement the routines in this may need translation.<br /> <br /> === Proper conversion of GRASS raster data to GMT compatible binary grids ===<br /> A combination of r.out.bin | xyz2grd can accomplish this. Several attempts at generalizing this procedure have been proposed: [http://david.p.finlayson.googlepages.com/gisscripts r.out.gmt.py], [http://bambi.otago.ac.nz/hamish/grass/r.out.gmt r.out.gmt] (Hamish and Dylan), [http://169.237.35.250/~dylan/grass_user_group/r.out.gmt.sh r.out.gmt.sh] (Dylan, based Hamish's work).<br /> <br /> === Proper conversion of GRASS vector data to GMT compatible ascii files ===<br /> There is currently an effort (with some funding!), see some of the chatter on the GRASS and GMT mailing lists:<br /> [http://grass.itc.it/pipermail/grassuser/2006-April/033659.html GRASS-list]<br /> [http://www.nabble.com/Ideas-needed-regarding-OGR-reformatter-for-GMT-vector-(point-multiline)-files.-t2605255.html GMT-help]<br /> <br /> === Automatic conversion of symbology data stored in a gis.m or QGIS saved state to GMT options ===<br /> <br /> Ideas expressed on various mailing list, haven't seem much since. It ''should'' be a relatively simple excercise in XML parsing to convert symbology stored in a QGIS project file into something that GMT can use.<br /> <br /> === General approach ===<br /> Since GMT relies on a sequence of specialized programs to &quot;build-up&quot; a postscript file, some thought must be put into how the conversion should take place. As usual, form should follow function- maximum flexibility, robustness, and accuracy being primary objectives. However, a simple means of creating high quality 2D maps would be a tremendous (I think) addition to the GRASS toolset.

<p>⚠️Timmie: /* Ubuntu 6.06 */ checkinstall for Ubuntu added</p> <hr /> <div>== How to do compilation and installation of GRASS 6? ==<br /> <br /> Here we explain the procedure to compile GRASS from CVS, but it also applies to official GRASS 6 releases.<br /> <br /> ''For installation of precompiled binary packages, see the main [[Installation Guide]].''<br /> <br /> For detailed information on compilation, please see the [http://grass.itc.it/grass61/source/INSTALL INSTALL] file in the source code.<br /> <br /> === Prerequisites ===<br /> <br /> GRASS needs at least two extra libraries: PROJ and GDAL/OGR<br /> <br /> ''Note: if you want to have DBMS support in GDAL (subsequently in GRASS) you have to perform the &quot;Optional&quot; steps below as well.''<br /> <br /> * [http://proj.maptools.org PROJ4] for management of projections (with proj-datumgrid-1.3.zip support)<br /> * Optional: [http://geos.refractions.net GEOS]<br /> * Optional: [http://www.postgresql.org PostgreSQL], [http://www.mysql.org mySQL], [http://www.unixodbc.org unixODBC], [http://www.sqlite.org SQLite] (SQLite is needed for QGIS)<br /> * [http://www.gdal.org GDAL/OGR] for reading and writing various GIS data formats (interoperability)<br /> <br /> You have to install these two libraries '''first'''.<br /> <br /> It is easiest to obtain a prepackaged version of these libraries (e.g., .rpm; .deb) for your particular operating system and run the corresponding package installation (e.g., rpm -Uhv packagename.rpm; apt-get) in a terminal window. Take care to also install the development packages of these libraries (...-devel packages). If there is no prepackage version, then you will have to download the source code (see links above, source code packages usually ends in .tar.gz or .zip) and compile it (you must have a C compiler installed as part of your operating system). The Web sites show the steps to compile the libraries.<br /> <br /> <br /> Other libraries needed to run GRASS are listed here: [http://grass.itc.it/grass63/source/REQUIREMENTS.html REQUIREMENTS]. To compile, you will also need the respective &quot;-devel&quot; packages.<br /> <br /> === Generic Compilation and installation procedure ===<br /> <br /> * checkout the grass6 module from cvs (read http://grass.itc.it/faq/cvs_howto.html grass CVS howto instructions)<br /> * It is wise that compilation processes are carried out as a normal user: If you want to get the source code in a place where you do not have write permissions (e.g. in /usr/local/src/cvs) just follow this:<br /> cd /usr/local/src/cvs <br /> su -c 'mkdir grass6'<br /> su -c 'chown yourlogin:yourgroup grass6'<br /> * do a checkout (co) of the repository<br /> cvs -z3 co grass6<br /> * in the grass6 directory, you will find the precious INSTALL file, open it with your favourite pager/editor and read it carefully!<br /> * run configure with parameters to adapt the compile process to your own system. To see what options can be passed to it, run configure --help. The minimum set of configure parameters is (refers to GRASS 6 from CVS, not to 6.x release):<br /> ./configure ### It may (!) look like this:<br /> ./configure \<br /> --with-cxx \<br /> --with-sqlite \<br /> --with-postgres-libs=/usr/include/pgsql/libpq \<br /> --with-postgres-includes=/usr/include/pgsql \<br /> --with-freetype \<br /> --with-freetype-includes=/usr/include/freetype2 \<br /> --with-motif \<br /> --with-glw \<br /> --with-proj-share=/usr/share/proj<br /> <br /> You may have to explicitly state the path for certain packages (i.e., gdal). The Unix 'locate' command will come in handy for finding the path of the package you need (you may have to run locate as root ex: sudo locate gdal-config).<br /> <br /> Please note that the paths mentioned may widely vary due to the distribution used. At the end of configuration process you should get report not much different from this:<br /> <br /> GRASS is now configured for: i686-pc-linux-gnu<br /> <br /> Source directory: /usr/src/grass6<br /> Build directory: /usr/src/grass6<br /> Installation directory: /usr/local/grass-6.1.cvs<br /> Startup script in directory: ${exec_prefix}/bin<br /> C compiler: gcc -g -O2 <br /> C++ compiler: c++ -g -O2<br /> FORTRAN compiler: <br /> Building shared libraries: yes<br /> 64bit support: no<br /> <br /> NVIZ: yes<br /> <br /> BLAS support: no<br /> C++ support: yes<br /> DWG support: no<br /> FFMPEG support: no<br /> FFTW support: yes<br /> FreeType support: yes<br /> GDAL support: yes<br /> GLw support: no<br /> JPEG support: yes<br /> LAPACK support: no<br /> Large File Support (LFS): no<br /> Motif support: no<br /> MySQL support: no<br /> NLS support: no<br /> ODBC support: no<br /> OGR support: yes<br /> OpenGL(R) support: yes<br /> PNG support: yes<br /> PostgreSQL support: yes<br /> Readline support: no<br /> SQLite support: no<br /> Tcl/Tk support: yes<br /> TIFF support: yes<br /> X11 support: yes<br /> <br /> * Let's compile it (takes a little while...)!<br /> make<br /> * At the end, you should get report not much different from this:<br /> ----------------------------------------------------------------------<br /> Following modules are missing the 'description.html' file in src code:<br /> ----------------------------------------------------------------------<br /> GRASS GIS compilation log<br /> -------------------------<br /> Started compilation: Ne kvě 28 13:18:43 CEST 2006<br /> --<br /> Errors in:<br /> --<br /> Finished compilation: Ne kvě 28 13:43:40 CEST 2006<br /> (In case of errors please change into the directory with error and run 'make')<br /> <br /> * If there is any error, change directory to directory with error and run &quot;make&quot; again.

Then, building GRASS is similar to building it on Linux, except that you need to disable most of the optional features (including the use of shared libraries).<br /> <br /> Aside: it might encourage more people to work on the Windows version if the GRASS site contained binary versions of the necessary libraries. Having to build XDR, PROJ, GDAL, zlib, PNG, Tcl/Tk and possibly other stuff from source before you can start to compile GRASS is a major nuisance.<br /> <br /> ... or see [http://wiki.qgis.org/qgiswiki/BuildingWindowsBinaryOnLinux here incl.

Here a list of problems with solution:<br /> <br /> * error: X11/Xlib.h: No such file or directory<br /> ** this suggests that you don't have the X headers installed<br /> ** Solution: Install the libx11-dev package<br /> <br /> === Configure options and their meanings ===<br /> <br /> For configure there are many options and some GRASS modules are built only if some options are set. Here are listed common configuration options with short explanation.<br /> <br /> * --prefix=/path - Sets path where GRASS will be installed. GRASS will reside in /path/grass-version.<br /> * --enable-largefile - Enables large (&gt;2Gb on 32bit systems) support. For current large file support status look at [[Large File Support]] page.<br /> * --with-cxx - Enables compilation of C++ code. Required for r.terraflow module.<br /> * --with-readline - Enables readline support. If readline is enabled, you can use its history/editing facilities when entering r.mapcalc expressions on stdin.<br /> * --with-glw - Enables GLw support. The GLw library provides OpenGL &quot;canvas&quot; widgets for Athena and Motif. <br /> <br /> That switch is unnecessary for normal compilation. It's only<br /> required for r3.showdspf, which isn't normally built; if you <br /> want it, you have build it manually <br /> (e.g. &quot;make -C raster3d/r3.showdspf&quot;).<br /> As similar functionality is now provided by NVIZ, r3.showdspf<br /> is deprecated.<br /> r3.showdspf uses the Motif widget (so you also need a <br /> Motif library, e.g. Lesstif or OpenMotif).<br /> [http://grass.itc.it/pipermail/grassuser/2006-December/037475.html Glynn Clements at GRASS-user mailing list]<br /> <br /> [[Category:Development]]<br /> [[Category:Documentation]]<br /> [[Category:Installation]]</div>

In this way the layers tree could appear next to the layer attributes in the same way the currently gis.m displays the layer attributes below the tree. The downside to this is having space on the desktop.<br /> <br /> Another possibility would be to link the command window to the map display in the shape of an xterm, in this way the gis manager could have a profile shape by default that could easily fit onto a single screen for those without multiple display systems. Another possibility that might be desirable is to be able to 'tear off' the command window separately or link it to either the GIS manager tree or the display window.<br /> <br /> It appears in the screen shots that multiple command windows are being considered (1 per map). In some ways this is potentially quite elegant especially if they are set up as separate sessions altogether so we wouldn't need to use win override. What we do encounter is issues related to multiple users which are non-trivial. Still as the layout suggest this it may be worth considering the impact of this, although the current solution in gis.m is probably the best for now.<br /> <br /> Please use icons that adhere the [http://tango.freedesktop.org/Tango_Icon_Theme_Guidelines icon style guideline]. They will make Grass look more professional and consistent with other FOSS applications.<br /> <br /> Make usability test of the new interface to enshure that Grass will be easy and intuitive for users.<br /> <br /> === GUI History ===<br /> '''[http://www.public.asu.edu/~cmbarton/files/grass_wxpython/ Link to wxPython prototype GUI for GRASS 6]'''<br /> <br /> '''Update 18:02, 14 August 2006 (CEST) '''New version implements double buffered drawing to fix display issues on Debian, including flickering why panning and display being erased by overlaying windows.

Automatic would be nice, but since it is possible for vector and raster files to have the same name, this wouldn't work. Another option to consider would be to use AddLayer as a base class AddLayerRaster, ... as subclasses. This would make things more modular and theoretically at least, easier to maintain and develop.''<br /> <br /> ''JC Comment: I made separate functions for raster and vector, because of their attributes are completely different. There should be also AddWMSLayer etc. functions. IMHO it does not matter, if we have general AddLayer with parameter layer_type, or separate functions for all layer types.''<br /> <br /> * '''DigitToolbar''' -- Pop-up toolbar with digitising functions<br /> * '''DisplayToolBar''' -- Pop-up toolbar with substitution of other d.* modules<br /> <br /> * '''MapDisplay''' -- Frame (in [http://wiki.wxpython.org/index.cgi/Frequently_Asked_Questions#head-829eea79fe17c04c65c00a7dc0bffa69f2473167 wxWidgets terminology]) with embed toolbar for zooming and paning and maybe data quering and pop-up toolbar for substitution of other d.* modules (d.path, d.profile, ...)<br /> NOTE: This section should be completed<br /> ** '''Attributes'''<br /> *** Width<br /> *** Height<br /> *** Mouse -- mouse actions, movements, presed buttons etc.<br /> *** Map -- ''Map'' class<br /> ** ''Methods'' -- just very coarse definition<br /> *** Zoom -- for zooming and paning<br /> *** DrawBox -- For box drawing<br /> *** DrawLine -- For line drawing<br /> *** DrawPoint -- for points drawing<br /> <br /> * '''GisManager''' -- GIS Manager frame<br /> ** '''Attributes''' <br /> *** Displays -- array with map displayes<br /> ** '''Methods'''<br /> *** AddDisplay -- Creates new map display<br /> *** AddLayer -- Adds layer of defined type<br /> *** EditLayer -- Opens pop-up window with layer attributes definition<br /> *** ExecuteCommand -- Executes module from command line or menu<br /> <br /> * '''GCPDisplay''' -- Special type of MapDisplay with tool for setting GCPs<br /> * '''HCPDisplay''' -- Special type of MapDisplay with tools for creating configuration files for hardcopy maps<br /> <br /> === Used tools ===<br /> [http://www.wxpython.org wxPython] seems to be the best tool for &quot;new generation gui&quot;, because of it's multiplatformity and native look&amp;feel on various platforms.<br /> <br /> * [http://www.poromenos.org/tutorials/python 10 minute Python tutorial] for programmers of other languages<br /> <br /> ==== Packages ====<br /> <br /> wxPython 2.8 or newer is needed.<br /> <br /> * Debian packages: wx2.8 python-wxgtk2.8 python-wxtools wx2.8-i18n<br /> : (''these don't yet exist at time of writing, check [http://packages.debian.org/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?exact=0&amp;searchon=names&amp;keywords=python-wxgtk here]'')<br /> <br /> * Ubuntu packages: [http://wxpython.wxcommunity.com/apt/ubuntu/ wxcommunity.com]<br /> <br /> === Where to get it ===<br /> Jachym suggests to move the development to GRASS-Addons subversion repository, until it is &quot;mature enough&quot;. Subversion enables for example to rename files, which could be useful. Current version can be found at https://grasssvn.itc.it/grasssvn/grassaddons/trunk/grassaddons/gui/#_trunk_grassaddons_gui_ and downloaded with command<br /> <br /> svn co https://grasssvn.itc.it/svn/grassaddons/trunk/grassaddons/gui<br /> <br /> Write access to the GRASS-Addons SVN is managed by Markus Neteler.<br /> <br /> === Layout Concepts ===<br /> <br /> ==== Screenshots with proposed shapes ====<br /> <br /> {| class=&quot;wikitable&quot; style=&quot;text-align:center;&quot; border=&quot;1&quot;<br /> | [[Image:Gism.png]] || [[Image:Gism2.jpeg]]<br /> |- <br /> | The wxGlade definition file is avaliable [https://grasssvn.itc.it/grasssvn/grassaddons/trunk/grassaddons/gui/gism.wxg in the subversion repository] || Another proposal by Michael Barton<br /> |}<br /> <br /> ==== Discussion / Comments ====<br /> <br /> If the goal is to move toward a single command line interface integrated into the GUI, perhaps we should use the shape of a terminal window as the the shape of the new GIS manager. In this way the layers tree could appear next to the layer attributes in the same way the currently gis.m displays the layer attributes below the tree. The downside to this is having space on the desktop.<br /> <br /> Another possibility would be to link the command window to the map display in the shape of an xterm, in this way the gis manager could have a profile shape by default that could easily fit onto a single screen for those without multiple display systems. Another possibility that might be desirable is to be able to 'tear off' the command window separately or link it to either the GIS manager tree or the display window.<br /> <br /> It appears in the screen shots that multiple command windows are being considered (1 per map). In some ways this is potentially quite elegant especially if they are set up as separate sessions altogether so we wouldn't need to use win override. What we do encounter is issues related to multiple users which are non-trivial. Still as the layout suggest this it may be worth considering the impact of this, although the current solution in gis.m is probably the best for now.<br /> <br /> Please use icons that adhere the [http://tango.freedesktop.org/Tango_Icon_Theme_Guidelines icon style guideline]. They will make Grass look more professional and consistent with other FOSS applications.<br /> <br /> === GUI History ===<br /> '''[http://www.public.asu.edu/~cmbarton/files/grass_wxpython/ Link to wxPython prototype GUI for GRASS 6]'''<br /> <br /> '''Update 18:02, 14 August 2006 (CEST) '''New version implements double buffered drawing to fix display issues on Debian, including flickering why panning and display being erased by overlaying windows. Output to PNG file added. Better looking zoom rectangles.<br /> <br /> '''*****The wxPython code is moving to the GRASS CVS. You should look for the newest versions there. Volunteers to help with the new GUI are welcomed!*****''' [[User:Cmbarton|Cmbarton]]<br /> <br /> '''Update 00:50, 9 August 2006 (CEST) '''New version will run directly from GRASS prompt with new startup script. Now put gism.py and associated files into $GISBASE/etc/gmwxp and add a new script (gm.wxp) to the $GISBASE/scripts folder. Then simply type gm.wxp&amp; from the GRASS command prompt to get the new prototype wxPython GUI for GRASS. See instructions in today's package update. [[User:Cmbarton|Cmbarton]]<br /> <br /> '''Update 23:59, 7 August 2006 (CEST) '''New version with nearly complete raster menu by Yann Chemin. [[User:Cmbarton|Cmbarton]]<br /> <br /> '''Update 19:02, 7 August 2006 (CEST)'''I just uploaded a new version of gism.py and related files. I'll keep an archive and so am changing the link to go to the folder rather than the file itself so I won't have to keep changing the link. This update includes the following changes:<br /> *The biggest change in wrapping in grassgui.py. This provides autogenerated wxPython GUI dialogs for all grass commands.<br /> This can now be called from the command console (just type in the command name with no arguments as you do now) or the<br /> prototype menus. I updated grassgui.py to current wxPython syntax (mostly) and added methods to make it callable from<br /> other modules.<br /> *Methods added to gism.py and grassgui.py that automatically restart them with pythonw for the Mac<br /> --[[User:Cmbarton|Cmbarton]] 19:02, 7 August 2006 (CEST)<br /> <br /> Initial development has begun on the next generation UI for GRASS. wxPython is the leading contender for a platform in which to continue development of the GRASS GUI. wxPython is a Python implementation of the well known wxWidgets (formerly wxWindows) interface development platform for C++. An initial demonstration was developed by Jachym Cepicky to show the possibility of controling GRASS via wxPython. A second generation prototype has been completed, building on Jachym's work. It is available for testing and further development at link above.<br /> --[[User:Cmbarton|Cmbarton]] 07:15, 4 August 2006 (CEST)<br /> <br /> == Components ==<br /> <br /> === Core GIS manager ===<br /> * name? (does it even need one?)<br /> <br /> === Module GUIs ===<br /> * Generate from XML --interface-description or new --wxpython switch?<br /> <br /> === Startup GUI ===<br /> * for picking mapset etc<br /> <br /> === New location GUI ===<br /> * Wizard for creating new location &amp; region.<br /> :see QGIS's one<br /> <br /> === Cartography: GUI front end for ps.map ===<br /> <br /> * This is a cartographic composer, intended to be a stand alone hardcopy plot generator. It is not meant to be a '''Print''' button for the maps currently displayed in the GIS manager, that will need it own controls.<br /> <br /> * The GUI will prepare a semi-WYSIWYG + tree menu controls which can write a ps.map control file, and then run ps.map to create PostScript and PDF output directly. Loading a ps.map control file is harder and can happen later.<br /> <br /> * For a start at a Tcl/Tk composer see gui/tcltk/d.m/print.tcl<br /> <br /> * Start with most important mapping instructions<br /> ** paper<br /> ** scale<br /> ** maploc<br /> ** rast<br /> ** vects<br /> ** grids<br /> ** scalebar<br /> ** mapinfo<br /> ** text labels<br /> <br /> ==== Outputs ====<br /> <br /> * ps.map instructions file<br /> * PostScript file [ps.map instructions tmp file]<br /> * lpr [PostScript tmp file]<br /> * PDF File (pstopdf? ps2pdf? GNU Ghostscript?) [PostScript tmp file]<br /> <br /> ==== Inputs ====<br /> <br /> * Ability to load in saved ps.map scripts. I consider this to be a low priority, deal with it after map creation is fully functional. Start with scripts saved using the GUI, after that is working expand to load any ps.map instructions file.<br /> <br /> === Georectifier ===<br /> * Should be a simple port of Michael's tcltk Georectifier for gis.m<br /> <br /> === Digitizer ===<br /> <br /> ==== Vector ====<br /> <br /> * Rewrite v.digit. Replace r.digit (r.in.poly format isn't far from v.in.ascii standard format)<br /> * v.edit?<br /> * Integrate d.rast.edit, d.rast.num functionality in another tool?<br /> * We can use QGIS's digitizer in the interim.<br /> * When to drop v.digit?<br /> <br /> ==== Raster ====<br /> * r.digit (merge with v.digit?)<br /> * d.rast.edit<br /> : Idea: get cell center coords and new values from GUI interaction, then pass those through r.in.xyz, and r.patch the new values over the top of the old map.<br /> <br /> * merge with Georectifier? (i.points, i.vpoints)<br /> <br /> ==== Ortho photos ====<br /> * To replace i.ortho.photo and friends<br /> <br /> = Tcl/Tk GUI =<br /> Screenshots: http://grass.itc.it/grass61/screenshots/index.php<br /> <br /> ===Draft GUI design specifications===<br /> <br /> * See attached file<br /> <br /> ===Summary of 2005 discussions on next generation UI for GRASS===<br /> <br /> * Attached file gives a distillation of several months of emails on the GRASS developers list. It includes a series of desired design features and specifications, along with supporting quotes.<br /> <br /> ===Compiled emails from 2005 discussions on next generation UI for GRASS===<br /> <br /> * Attached file compiles all (or all that I could find) of the late 2005 emails on the GRASS developers list discussing proposed specifications for a next generation GRASS GUI.
