Jupyter examples to use openrouteservice

(Mostly) real-world examples and inspirations to use the full range of ORS services and clients.

For an instant setup, you can use MyBinder to start an interactive Jupyter server.

Local installation

# clone the repo and enter folder
git clone https://github.com/GIScience/openrouteservice-examples.git
cd openrouteservice-examples

# Install the requirements in a virtual env and activate it
python -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate

pip install -r requirements.txt

Note: In case jupyter is already installed globally, and you want to use the local version, you can create a symlink to the local jupyter with:

ln -s .venv/bin/jupyter jupyter

Then, run jupyter commands with ./jupyter instead.

Launch the Jupyter server on the python directory

jupyter notebook python/

Development

If you are not just using but editing or adding notebooks, you need to install the jupytext extension

# set up jupytext server extension, needs Jupyter Notebook 7 or later
jupyter labextension enable jupyterlab-jupytext

Note, that every notebook is paired with a corresponding .py-file of the same name. On changing either the notebook or the .py-file, the other one will be automatically updated.

When reviewing changes, only the .py-file needs to be looked at, the .ipynb-file is only kept for use with jupyter in the browser and to render maps and other information.

Pairing new notebooks

New notebooks have to be paired by clicking File > Jupytext > Pair Notebook with Light Format
