0. Start From Intermediate Solution (Optional)¶
If you wish to use the intermediate solution as a starting point:
$ git clone https://github.com/tethysplatform/tethysapp-dam_inventory.git
$ cd tethysapp-dam_inventory
$ git checkout intermediate-solution
1. Persistent Store Database¶
In the Intermediate Concepts tutorial we implemented a file-based database as the persisting mechanism for the app. However, simple file based databases typically don't perform well in a web application environment, because of the possibility of many concurrent requests trying to access the file. In this section we'll refactor the Model to use an SQL database, rather than files.
Open the
app.py
and define a newPersistentStoreDatabaseSetting
by adding thepersistent_store_settings
method to your app class:
from tethys_sdk.app_settings import PersistentStoreDatabaseSetting
class DamInventory(TethysAppBase):
"""
Tethys app class for Dam Inventory.
"""
...
def persistent_store_settings(self):
"""
Define Persistent Store Settings.
"""
ps_settings = (
PersistentStoreDatabaseSetting(
name='primary_db',
description='primary database',
initializer='dam_inventory.model.init_primary_db',
required=True
),
)
return ps_settings
Tethys provides the library SQLAlchemy as an interface with SQL databases. SQLAlchemy provides an Object Relational Mapper (ORM) API, which allows data models to be defined using Python and an object-oriented approach. With SQLAlchemy, you can harness the power of SQL databases without writing SQL. As a primer to SQLAlchemy ORM, we highly recommend you complete the Object Relational Tutorial.
Define a table called
dams
by creating a new class inmodel.py
calledDam
:
import json
from sqlalchemy.ext.declarative import declarative_base
from sqlalchemy import Column, Integer, Float, String
from sqlalchemy.orm import sessionmaker
from .app import DamInventory as app
Base = declarative_base()
# SQLAlchemy ORM definition for the dams table
class Dam(Base):
"""
SQLAlchemy Dam DB Model
"""
__tablename__ = 'dams'
# Columns
id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
latitude = Column(Float)
longitude = Column(Float)
name = Column(String)
owner = Column(String)
river = Column(String)
date_built = Column(String)
Tip
SQLAlchemy Data Models: Each class in an SQLAlchemy data model defines a table in the database. The model you defined above consists of a single table called "dams", as denoted by the __tablename__
property of the Dam
class. The Dam
class inherits from a Base
class that we created in the previous lines from the declarative_base
function. This inheritance notifies SQLAlchemy that the Dam
class is part of the data model.
The class defines seven other properties that are instances of SQLAlchemy Column
class: id, latitude, longitude, name, owner, river, date_built. These properties define the columns of the "dams" table. The column type and options are defined by the arguments passed to the Column
class. For example, the latitude column is of type Float
while the id column is of type Integer
. The id
column is flagged as the primary key for the table. IDs will be generated for each object when they are committed.
This class is not only used to define the tables for your persistent store, it is also used to create new entries and query the database.
For more information on Persistent Stores, see: Persistent Stores API.
Refactor the
add_new_dam
andget_all_dams
functions inmodel.py
to use the SQL database instead of the files:
def add_new_dam(location, name, owner, river, date_built):
"""
Persist new dam.
"""
# Convert GeoJSON to Python dictionary
location_dict = json.loads(location)
location_geometry = location_dict['geometries'][0]
longitude = location_geometry['coordinates'][0]
latitude = location_geometry['coordinates'][1]
# Create new Dam record
new_dam = Dam(
latitude=latitude,
longitude=longitude,
name=name,
owner=owner,
river=river,
date_built=date_built
)
# Get connection/session to database
Session = app.get_persistent_store_database('primary_db', as_sessionmaker=True)
session = Session()
# Add the new dam record to the session
session.add(new_dam)
# Commit the session and close the connection
session.commit()
session.close()
def get_all_dams():
"""
Get all persisted dams.
"""
# Get connection/session to database
Session = app.get_persistent_store_database('primary_db', as_sessionmaker=True)
session = Session()
# Query for all dam records
dams = session.query(Dam).all()
session.close()
return dams
Important
Don't forget to close your session
objects when you are done. Eventually you will run out of connections to the database if you don't, which will cause unsightly errors.
Create a new function called
init_primary_db
at the bottom ofmodel.py
. This function is used to initialize the data database by creating the tables and adding any initial data.
def init_primary_db(engine, first_time):
"""
Initializer for the primary database.
"""
# Create all the tables
Base.metadata.create_all(engine)
# Add data
if first_time:
# Make session
Session = sessionmaker(bind=engine)
session = Session()
# Initialize database with two dams
dam1 = Dam(
latitude=40.406624,
longitude=-111.529133,
name="Deer Creek",
owner="Reclamation",
river="Provo River",
date_built="April 12, 1993"
)
dam2 = Dam(
latitude=40.598168,
longitude=-111.424055,
name="Jordanelle",
owner="Reclamation",
river="Provo River",
date_built="1941"
)
# Add the dams to the session, commit, and close
session.add(dam1)
session.add(dam2)
session.commit()
session.close()
Refactor
home
controller incontrollers.py
to use new model objects:
@login_required()
def home(request):
"""
Controller for the app home page.
"""
# Get list of dams and create dams MVLayer:
dams = get_all_dams()
features = []
lat_list = []
lng_list = []
for dam in dams:
lat_list.append(dam.latitude)
lng_list.append(dam.longitude)
dam_feature = {
'type': 'Feature',
'geometry': {
'type': 'Point',
'coordinates': [dam.longitude, dam.latitude],
},
'properties': {
'id': dam.id,
'name': dam.name,
'owner': dam.owner,
'river': dam.river,
'date_built': dam.date_built
}
}
features.append(dam_feature)
...
Refactor the
list_dams
controller to use the new model objects:
@login_required()
def list_dams(request):
"""
Show all dams in a table view.
"""
dams = get_all_dams()
table_rows = []
for dam in dams:
table_rows.append(
(
dam.name, dam.owner,
dam.river, dam.date_built
)
)
...
Add Persistent Store Service to Tethys Portal:
Go to Tethys Portal Home in a web browser (e.g. http://localhost:8000/apps/)
Select Site Admin from the drop down next to your username.
Scroll down to Tethys Services section and select Persistent Store Services link.
Click on the Add Persistent Store Service button.
Give the Persistent Store Service a name and fill out the connection information.
Important
The username and password for the persistent store service must be a superuser to use spatial persistent stores.
Assign Persistent Store Service to Dam Inventory App:
Go to Tethys Portal Home in a web browser (e.g. http://localhost:8000/apps/)
Select Site Admin from the drop down next to your username.
Scroll down to Tethys Apps section and select Installed App link.
Select the Dam Inventory link.
Scroll down to the Persistent Store Database Settings section.
Assign the Persistent Store Service that you created in Step 4 to the primary_db.
Execute syncstores command to initialize Persistent Store database:
(tethys) $ tethys syncstores dam_inventory
2. Use Custom Settings¶
In the Beginner Concepts tutorial, we created a custom setting named max_dams. In this section, we'll show you how to use the custom setting in one of your controllers.
Modify the add_dam controller, such that it won't add a new dam if the max_dams limit has been reached:
from .model import Dam
from .app import DamInventory as app
...
@login_required()
def add_dam(request):
"""
Controller for the Add Dam page.
"""
...
# Handle form submission
if request.POST and 'add-button' in request.POST:
...
if not has_errors:
# Get value of max_dams custom setting
max_dams = app.get_custom_setting('max_dams')
# Query database for count of dams
Session = app.get_persistent_store_database('primary_db', as_sessionmaker=True)
session = Session()
num_dams = session.query(Dam).count()
# Only add the dam if we have not exceed max_dams
if num_dams < max_dams:
add_new_dam(location=location, name=name, owner=owner, river=river, date_built=date_built)
else:
messages.warning(request, 'Unable to add dam "{0}", because the inventory is full.'.format(name))
return redirect(reverse('dam_inventory:home'))
messages.error(request, "Please fix errors.")
...
Tip
For more information on app settings, see App Settings API.
3. Use JavaScript APIs¶
JavaScript is the programming language that is used to program web browsers. You can use JavaScript in you Tethys apps to enrich the user experience and add dynamic effects. Many of the Tethys Gizmos include JavaScript APIs to allow you to access the underlying JavaScript objects and library to customize them. In this section, we'll use the JavaScript API of the Map View gizmo to add pop-ups to the map whenever the users clicks on one of the dams.
Modify the MVLayer in the
home
controller to make the layer selectable:
...
dams_layer = MVLayer(
...
feature_selection=True
)
...
Create a new file called
/public/js/map.js
and add the following contents:
$(function()
{
// Create new Overlay with the #popup element
var popup = new ol.Overlay({
element: document.getElementById('popup')
});
// Get the Open Layers map object from the Tethys MapView
var map = TETHYS_MAP_VIEW.getMap();
// Get the Select Interaction from the Tethys MapView
var select_interaction = TETHYS_MAP_VIEW.getSelectInteraction();
// Add the popup overlay to the map
map.addOverlay(popup);
// When selected, call function to display properties
select_interaction.getFeatures().on('change:length', function(e)
{
var popup_element = popup.getElement();
if (e.target.getArray().length > 0)
{
// this means there is at least 1 feature selected
var selected_feature = e.target.item(0); // 1st feature in Collection
// Get coordinates of the point to set position of the popup
var coordinates = selected_feature.getGeometry().getCoordinates();
var popup_content = '<div class="dam-popup">' +
'<p><b>' + selected_feature.get('name') + '</b></p>' +
'<table class="table table-condensed">' +
'<tr>' +
'<th>Owner:</th>' +
'<td>' + selected_feature.get('owner') + '</td>' +
'</tr>' +
'<tr>' +
'<th>River:</th>' +
'<td>' + selected_feature.get('river') + '</td>' +
'</tr>' +
'<tr>' +
'<th>Date Built:</th>' +
'<td>' + selected_feature.get('date_built') + '</td>' +
'</tr>' +
'</table>' +
'</div>';
// Clean up last popup and reinitialize
$(popup_element).popover('destroy');
// Delay arbitrarily to wait for previous popover to
// be deleted before showing new popover.
setTimeout(function() {
popup.setPosition(coordinates);
$(popup_element).popover({
'placement': 'top',
'animation': true,
'html': true,
'content': popup_content
});
$(popup_element).popover('show');
}, 500);
} else {
// remove pop up when selecting nothing on the map
$(popup_element).popover('destroy');
}
});
});
Open
/templates/dam_inventory/home.html
, add a newdiv
element to theapp_content
area of the page with an idpopup
, and load themap.js
script to the bottom of the page:
...
{% block app_content %}
{% gizmo dam_inventory_map %}
<div id="popup"></div>
{% endblock %}
...
{% block scripts %}
{{ block.super }}
<script src="{% static 'dam_inventory/js/map.js' %}" type="text/javascript"></script>
{% endblock %}
Open
public/css/map.css
and add the following contents:
...
.popover-content {
width: 240px;
}
4. App Permissions¶
By default, any user logged into the app can access any part of it. You may want to restrict access to certain areas of the app to privileged users. This can be done using the Permissions API. Let's modify the app so that only admin users of the app can add dams to the app.
Define permissions for the app by adding the
permissions
method to the app class in theapp.py
:
...
from tethys_sdk.permissions import Permission, PermissionGroup
class DamInventory(TethysAppBase):
"""
Tethys app class for Dam Inventory.
"""
...
def permissions(self):
"""
Define permissions for the app.
"""
add_dams = Permission(
name='add_dams',
description='Add dams to inventory'
)
admin = PermissionGroup(
name='admin',
permissions=(add_dams,)
)
permissions = (admin,)
return permissions
Protect the Add Dam view with the
add_dams
permission by replacing thelogin_required
decorator with thepermission_required
decorator to theadd_dams
controller:
from tethys_sdk.permissions import permission_required
...
@permission_required('add_dams')
def add_dam(request):
"""
Controller for the Add Dam page.
"""
...
Add a context variable called
can_add_dams
to the context of each controller with the value of the return value of thehas_permission
function:
from tethys_sdk.permissions import has_permission
@login_required()
def home(request):
"""
Controller for the app home page.
"""
...
context = {
...
'can_add_dams': has_permission(request, 'add_dams')
}
return render(request, 'dam_inventory/home.html', context)
@permission_required('add_dams')
def add_dam(request):
"""
Controller for the Add Dam page.
"""
...
context = {
...
'can_add_dams': has_permission(request, 'add_dams')
}
return render(request, 'dam_inventory/add_dam.html', context)
@login_required()
def list_dams(request):
"""
Show all dams in a table view.
"""
dams = get_all_dams()
context = {
...
'can_add_dams': has_permission(request, 'add_dams')
}
return render(request, 'dam_inventory/list_dams.html', context)
Use the
can_add_dams
variable to determine whether to show or hide the navigation link to the Add Dam View inbase.html
:
{% block app_navigation_items %}
...
<li class="{% if request.path == home_url %}active{% endif %}"><a href="{{ home_url }}">Home</a></li>
<li class="{% if request.path == list_dam_url %}active{% endif %}"><a href="{{ list_dam_url }}">Dams</a></li>
{% if can_add_dams %}
<li class="{% if request.path == add_dam_url %}active{% endif %}"><a href="{{ add_dam_url }}">Add Dam</a></li>
{% endif %}
{% endblock %}
Use the
can_add_dams
variable to determine whether to show or hide the "Add Dam" button inhome.html
:
{% block app_actions %}
{% if can_add_dams %}
{% gizmo add_dam_button %}
{% endif %}
{% endblock %}
The
admin
user of Tethys is a superuser and has all permissions. To test the permissions, create two new users: one with theadmin
permissions group and one without it. Then login with these users:Go to Tethys Portal Home in a web browser (e.g. http://localhost:8000/apps/)
Select Site Admin from the drop down next to your username.
Scroll to the Authentication and Authorization section.
Select the Users link.
Press the Add User button.
Enter "diadmin" as the username and enter a password. Take note of the password for later.
Press the Save button.
Scroll down to the Groups section.
Select the dam_inventory:admin group and press the right arrow to add the user to that group.
Press the Save button.
Repeat steps e-f for user named "diviewer". DO NOT add "diviewer" user to any groups.
Press the Save button.
Log in each user. If the permission has been applied correctly, "diviewer" should not be able to see the Add Dam link and should be redirected if the Add Dam view is linked to directly. "diadmin" should be able to add dams.
Tip
