“Semantic Maps is an extension to Semantic MediaWiki (SMW) that adds semantic capabilities to the Maps extension and adds the datatype Geographic coordinate. This includes the ability to add, edit, aggregate and visualize coordinate data stored through the Semantic MediaWiki extension. It is based on the Maps extension and replaces the earlier implementations Semantic Google Maps and Semantic Layers.” Semantic Maps, retrieved Aug 2013
Download, versions and dependencies
Semantic maps is based on other extensions. Typically, you must include Validator (or ParamProcessor), SMW, semantic Forms, Maps, and finally Semantic Maps.
As of August 2013, you have to make a choice between and older and a newer version. In addition, documentation for ParamProcessor isn't up-to-date, i.e. some confusion of what you need. Also read Wikidata/Notes/SMW and Wikidata
Version 3.0.x
Currently (Aug 2013), alpha but should be working fine if you also upgrade all the dependencies. Same setup as 2.0.x.
Version 2.0.x
Download and instructions: Extension:Semantic_Maps
- Maps 2.0.1 or above
- ParamProcessor 1.0 or above. This is a new version of Validator and it also keeps the validator extension directory.
- DataValues (needed by ParamProcessor)
- Mediawiki 1.18 or above
- PHP 5.3 or above
Version 1.0.5
Download and instructions: Extension:Semantic_Maps and the old documentation wiki
- Maps 1.0.5
- MediaWiki 1.17 or above
- Validator later than 0.4.12
Installation notes
Not stable, I just write down the steps I am currently playing with - 17:35, 16 August 2013 (CEST)
Environment / SMW already installed
- Mediawiki version: Special:Version (this wiki)
- SMW and SMF installed and working
Download
Keep a copy of directories that you will have to overwrite....
cd extensions cp -rp Validator Validator.save
git clone https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/p/mediawiki/extensions/DataValues.git git clone https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/p/mediawiki/extensions/Validator.git git clone https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/p/mediawiki/extensions/Maps.git git clone https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/p/mediawiki/extensions/SemanticMaps.git
Edit LocalSettings.php
(1) Add DataValues before Validator
# DataValues (needed for ParaProcessor) require_once( "$IP/extensions/DataValues/DataValues.php" );
(2) After Validator, SMW and SMF:
# Maps
require_once( "$IP/extensions/Maps/Maps.php" );
# Semantic Maps
require_once( "$IP/extensions/SemanticMaps/SemanticMaps.php" );
