MongoDB Setup:

==============

Install MongoDB

::

    wget http://fastdl.mongodb.org/linux/mongodb-linux-x86_64-1.8.2.tgz

    tar zxvf mongodb-linux-x86_64-1.6.5.tgz

    cd mongodb-linux-x86_64-1.6.5/bin

Start the database:

:: 

    ./mongod --dbpath=/home/alan/.data/

    

I like to add a line in my .basrc to easily start MongoDB

::

    alias mgdb='/home/alan/.bin/mongodb-linux-x86_64-1.8.2/bin/mongod --dbpath=/home/alan/.data/'

Enter the Mongo shell

::

    >mongo

    db = connect("localhost/georegistry02");

    use ;

    db..find();

    db..find().forEach(printjson);

Create Indexes

::

    db..ensureIndex( { 'geometry_centroid' : "2d" } )

    db..ensureIndex( { 'country_code' : 1 } )

    db..ensureIndex( { 'id' : 1 } )

Display everythin in the collection

::

    db..find().forEach(printjson);

Setup georegistry:

===========

These instruction may need to be modified based on your flavor/version of Linux/Unix.

For example, you could install python-imaging with pip, by typing:

::

    sudo pip install PIL

Noy you need to install 

Setup on Ubuntu 10.10

::

    sudo apt-get install lib-geos-c1 python-imaging git-core mercurlial build-essental python2.6-dev python-setuptools libdecodeqr0 libdecodeqr-dev libqrencode3 libqrencode-dev

    sudo easy_install pip

    git clone git://github.com/mvpdev/georegistry.git

    cd georegistry

    sudo pip install -r requirements.txt

    python manage.py syncdb

    python managae.py runserver

Now that you have the server running, move on to the tutorial
