Description:
pyqgisserver 1.8.8
QGIS embedded WMS/WFS/WCS asynchronous scalable server
Description
This is an asynchronous HTTP QGIS server written in python on top of the tornado framework and the
0MQ messaging framework for distributing requests workers.
It is based on the QGIS 3 server API for efficiently passing requests/responses using 0MQ messaging framework to workers.
The server may run as a self-contained single service or as a proxy server with an arbitrary number of workers running
remotely or locally. Independent workers connect automatically to the front-end proxy with no need of special configuration
on the proxy side. Thus, this is ideal for auto-scaling configuration for use with container orchestrator as Rancher, Swarm or Kubernetes.
The server is aimed at solving some real situations encountered in production environment: zero conf scalability, handle long-running request situation, auto restart...
Py-Qgis-server is constantly tested against QGIS release and ltr version.
See the QGIS roadmap.

Installation
From Pypi
pip install py-qgis-server
From docker
Docker is the recommended way to deploy py-qgis-server as it ensure a working environment for
running py-qgis-server
Follow the readme in the docker/ folder.
From source
Install in development mode
pip install -e .
Running the server
The server does not run as a daemon by itself, there are several ways to run a command as a daemon.
For example:
Use Supervisor http://supervisord.org/. Will gives you full control over logs and server status notifications.
Use the daemon command.
Use systemd
...
Running the server
usage: qgisserver [-h] [-d] [-c [PATH]]
[--version] [-p PORT] [-b IP] [-w NUM] [-j NUM] [-u SETUID]
[--rootdir PATH] [--proxy] [--timeout SECONDS]
qgis/HTTP/0MQ scalable server
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-d, --debug debug mode
-c [PATH], --config [PATH]
Configuration file
--version Return version number and exit
-p PORT, --port PORT http port
-b IP, --bind IP Interface to bind to
-w NUM, --workers NUM
Num workers
-j NUM, --jobs NUM Num server instances
-u SETUID, --setuid SETUID
uid to switch to
--rootdir PATH Path to qgis projects
--proxy Run only as proxy
--timeout SECONDS Set client timeout in seconds
By default, the command will run server instances with workers and use unix sockets to communicate. This can
be used to run the server as a single command.
Running proxy and workers separately
If the --proxy option the server will act as a proxy server to talk to independent qgis workers.
Qgis workers can be run using the command:
qgisserver-worker --host=localhost --rootdir=path/to/projects
Requests to OWS services
The OWS requests use the following format: /ows/?<ows_query_params>
Example:
http://myserver:8080/ows/?SERVICE=WFS&VERSION=1.1.0&REQUEST=GetCapabilities&MAP=<qgis_project_spec>
Requests to WFS3 OAPI
The requests use the following format: /wfs3/<wfs3_api_endpoint>?MAP=<qgis_project_spec>
Example:
http://myserver:8080/wfs3/collections.html?MAP=<qgis_project_spec>
Accessing the Qgis landing page and other qgis API
By default, the landing page is not enabled, see the
documentation on how to enable the landing page.
Qgis api may be exposed on demand by configuring the api endpoints
Using with lizmap
In order to use the server with lizmap, you must set the following configuration
in your lizmapConfig.ini.php:
[services]
wmsServerURL="http://my.domain:<port>/ows/"
...
; Use relative path
relativeWMSPath=true
Configuration
The configuration can be done either as configuration .ini file in or as environment variables.
The precedences of the configuration parameters is the following (from lowest to highest)
Defaults values
Environment variables
Config file
Command line options
Configuration parameters
Please look at the documentation for configuration options
Logging
By default, the server log on stdout/stderr and you have to configure redirection and log rotation
on your infrastructure environment
