# MapServer renderer for NextGIS Web
## Installation
First of all, clone the repository:
```bash
$ cd package
$ git clone git@github.com:nextgis/nextgisweb_mapserver.git
```
Package `nextgisweb_mapserver` requires `mapscript` Python package from
MapServer and it can't be installed via `pip` from PyPi. Thus, you must install
`mapscript` into a virtualenv before `nextgisweb_mapserver` installation.
The simplest way to do this is to copy it from system-wide installation. At
first, install `mapscript` system-wide first with a package manager. For Ubuntu
you can use `python3-mapscript` (or `python-mapscript` for Python 2) package,
for example:
```bash
$ apt install python3-mapscript
```
Then check if it's available for **system** Python:
```bash
$ /usr/bin/python3 -c "import mapscript; print(mapscript)"
```
After that copy it into the virtualenv via `mapscript-to-env` script from this
repository and then install `nextgisweb_mapserver` into the virtualenv:
```bash
$ nextgisweb_mapserver/mapscript-to-env ../env/bin/python /usr/bin/python3
$ pip install -e nextgisweb_mapserver/
```
