Thanks for your help Dane,
Ah I see Cairo is there. Appologies, I think I got confused somewhere.
Removed the macport install now : )
'/Library/Frameworks/Mapnik.framework/Versions/Current/Python/System/
2.5/site-packages/mapnik/__init__.py'
What is really confusing me is that the package I installed from the
following "installing Mapnik" instructions..
"If you haven't already done so, export the Mapnik stuff from the OSM
subversion repository:
svn export http://svn.openstreetmap.org/applications/rendering/mapnik
cd mapnik"
Is here.
/usr/local/Cellar/mapnik/
So currently this is where I edit the xml files, keep the shape files
etc.
But as far as I can make out I only have the one Unix Executable and
thats in the framework. If I move it, I can no longer use Mapnik.
So Mapnik seems to be running fine.
But when I try to import Cairo I get this error.
>>> import mapnik
>>> import cairo
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "/usr/local/Cellar/mapnik/cairo.py", line 19, in <module>
surface = cairo.SVGSurface(file.name, mapnik_map.width,
mapnik_map.height)
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'SVGSurface'
>>>
However if I start python from home$
No problem.
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import cairo
>>>
Basically I think I have misunderstood where the Mapnik folder with
xml files should be kept.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Many thanks
Simon
to see where your mapnik is coming from. I recommend only installing
mapnik and cairo from one source, and the binary installer above
should work on a vanilla osx system without homebrew or macports. I
recommend uninstalling all things that you installed with those
package managers relating to Mapnik and Cairo. If the binary
installer did not work alone, post why.
I wanted to give Cairo a try so I followed the Mapnik instructions
through Macports and now
that lives here
/opt etc.
When I run the Mapnik svg example script I get this error.
File "./cairo.py", line 8, in <module>
import cairo
File "/usr/local/Cellar/mapnik/cairo.py", line 19, in <module>
surface = cairo.SVGSurface(file.name, mapnik_map.width,
mapnik_map.height)
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'SVGSurface'
So I guess Mapnik is not finding the Cairo files.
Any ideas what I can do to get my Mapnik files to find them?
Would some sort of symbolic link do it or do I need to try and
reinstall Mapnik ?
Thanks for your help
Simon
