flyspy's Introduction

FlySpy

Web app to plot environmental incidents on map.

The user sends a photo and some text via facebook Messenger. This represents a complete event, which is then pinned on a map with a preview of the image.

Created for Learn,Create, Share (LCS) between 4th - 6th August 2020.

Overview

The following diagram provides an overview of the project:

Overview

Server

The server folder contains these files:

  • flyspy-flatfile.py
  • flyspy-tinydb.py
  • flyspy-tinydb-final.py

The first version implemented used a global array to store events. This provided proof of concept but after Glitch sleeps it will reload the code when it restarts, clearning memory.

flyspy-flatfile.py was then implemented and stored events in a text file. This worked fine but was not an ideal solution.

flyspy-tinydb.py was an experiment with using TinyDB, a JSON database system.

flyspy-tinydb-final.py is the final implementation for LCS, using TinyDB.

Web app

The source code for the web app is in the client folder and requires configuration.

First, sign up for a free account at OpenCage to obtain an API key for their Geocoding API.

Then, Copy config.example.js to config.js and enter your OpenCage key into the API_KEY setting and also the URL of your FlySpy server in EVENT_SERVER_URL. (Note that there is also a test.json file that contains dummy data for Swindon, UK that you can use in place of the server for local testing.)

Serve the HTML page from a web server. You can use Python's http.server for that:

Python2

python -m SimpleHTTPServer 8000

Python3

python -m http.server 8000

And navigate to http://localhost:8000 in your browser.
