How to update / add a project in the documentation

Since documentation is built automatically, projects data are stored in project_info.csv file. It is the main point of entry of the docs.

It can be found here: ​https://github.com/OSGeo/OSGeoLive-doc/blob/master/projects_info.csv

To add a new project, you have to add a new line in this file. To update a project informations, just modify the corresponding line. Then commit and push your changes and make a pull request to the OSGeoLive repository.

project_info.csv organization

The file is organized with 13 columns/fields separated by the pipe | symbol:

# document? | slug |version| Quickstart? |Overview?|Section| last | One Liner| OpenHub name |URL|kind|name|ISO

The 13 fields are described below.

Several categories have been made with comments to help organize the projects. Please add your project in the corresponding one:

• Desktop GIS : General GIS viewing, editing and analysis in the browser
• Browser Facing GIS: General GIS viewing, editing and analysis in the browser
• Web Services: Publishing spatial data to the internet
• Data Stores: Storing spatial data
