using cherrypy as server on webfaction

intention: this is experimantal / test bed location for trying out various items

ol-ext ol.control. SearchNominatim

copy from original sources:

    mkdir nominat
    cd nominat/
    wget http://viglino.github.io/ol-ext/examples/search/map.control.searchnominatim.html

    mkdir theirs
    cd theirs
    wget http://viglino.github.io/ol-ext/dist/ol-ext.js
    wget http://viglino.github.io/ol-ext/examples/style.css

AND get cherryPy server working...

see if server is running:
        ps aux | grep site.py | grep -v grep | grep -v vim
stop:
        kill $(cat $HOME/webapps/cherry/pid)
start:
        ~/webapps/cherry/autostart.cgi

BUT: When the application is down, it is automatically restarted by autostart.cgi upon the first page request.

for now, will hard code nom in site.py...

Yes, and that works...

but NO, server doesn't seem right

copy of opan3 cherry setup to ilc

edit site.py to have srv.conf mods

NOPE

Hmm..., can run it manually from command line:

    wendell@webfaction:~/webapps/cherry
    /usr/local/bin/python3.7 /home/wendell/webapps/cherry/site.py

and web page shows up!!!

in site.py:

      'log.screen': True,
      # wt's additions
      'tools.staticdir.on': True,
      'tools.staticdir.dir':  "/home/wendell/webapps/cherry"

and nom.html works!!!

and changing the url:

theirs:

https://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/search?format=json&addressdetails=1&q=ice%20cream&polygon_geojson=0&limit=10

mine:

        url: "http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/search?viewbox=-77.0,38.8,-77.2,38.99&bounded=1&format=json"

theirs again:

    http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/search?viewbox=-77.0,38.8,-77.2,38.99&bounded=1&format=json
    ?format=json&addressdetails=1&q=ice%20cream&polygon_geojson=0&limit=10

HMM..., they added '?' onto it, BUT mine already had a '?' !!!

HOW ABOUT THAT: this time, the restart worked:

> ~/webapps/cherry/autostart.cgi
Content-type: text/html

<html><head><META HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" CONTENT="2; URL=."></head><body>Restarting site ... <a href=".">click here<a></body></html>wendell@webfaction:~/webapps/cherry
> ps aux | grep site.py | grep -v grep | grep -v vim
wendell  22941 19.0  0.0 1044980 23564 ?       Sl   02:50   0:00 /usr/local/bin/python3.7 /home/wendell/webapps/cherry/site.py

maybe waited a while???

Anyway, back to SearchNominatim...

parameter in nom.js:

        url: "http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/search"

debug network panel shows:

    https://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/search?format=json&addressdetails=1&q=ice%20cream&polygon_geojson=0&limit=10

and still gets places in France...

Q: does this work (in browser or wget or curl)?

http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/search?viewbox=-77.0,38.8,-77.2,38.99&bounded=1&format=json&addressdetails=1&q=ice%20cream&polygon_geojson=0&limit=10

Yes, in a browser that works fine!
