Managing layers¶

-

There are some different layers available by default in Chimère (OSM Mapnik, OSM -Mapquest, OSM Transport map, OSM Cyclemap). You can add some extra layer using -the web administration pages of Chimère. The new layer is defined with the -appropriate Openlayers JS code. This JS code must -be a compatible Openlayers Layer instance with no ending semi-colon. For -instance defining a Bing layer can be done with this kind of code:

-

new OpenLayers.Layer.Bing({
-            name: "Aerial",
-            key: "my-bing-API-key",
-            type: "Aerial"})

-

Refer to the Openlayers documentation API -for more details.

-

Customizing the layout and the design¶

-

If you only want to customize the CSS, the easiest way to do it is to add a -link to an extra CSS to your Areas cf. Managing areas.

-

If you want to do larger changes in the layout and the style the (well named) -example_project can be customized to fit your needs. Each template file present -in the chimere/templates directory can be copied in your myproject/templates -directory and then modified. -You only need to copy files that you want to modify. These files are in -Django template language mainly made of pure HTML with some logic. Refer to -the Django template documentation -for more details.
