Model Mommy Spatial Generators

This package contains spatial generators to be used with model_mommy.

Model Mommy is a Django package that creates random model instances with predefined data.

This work intends to expand it and allow it to generate GeoDjango spatial fields.

At this moment, there is a generator for point (random), linestring (random) and polygon (rectangular polygon) field types.

This needs substantial help with packaging and testing.

All new ideas welcome.

Install

To install this you just need to

pip install -e git+https://github.com/sigma-geosistemas/mommy_spatial_generators.git#egg=mommy_spatial_generators

Dependencies

• Model Mommy (obviously);

How to make this work

To integrate this work with model_mommy, you need to create a dict variable on your settings.py called MOMMY_CUSTOM_FIELDS_GEN and concatenate the already predefined dict we provide (MOMMY_SPATIAL_FIELDS), located in generators.py.

model_mommy should take of the rest.

# settings.py
from mommy_spatial_generators import MOMMY_SPATIAL_FIELDS

MOMMY_CUSTOM_FIELDS_GEN = MOMMY_SPATIAL_FIELDS

Testing

Just run:

./manage.py test
