Putting any Shape file to DB

[Fernando]

Hi,

I'm initiating in webGIS in general and decide to choose GeoDjango. So this is a newbie question.

I'm trying to create a system to receive a ShapeFile and import to DB.

First I try use LayerMapping, then I realize that I couldn't pass values of my system that not exists in the shapefile.

So I decide to use DataSources to get just the poilygon coordenates and save my data.

But in very different ways, allways a received an type of data error.

One example bellow:

cannot set Orcamento GeometryProxy with value of type: <class 'django.contrib.gis.geos.polygon.Polygon'>

The important data of my model:

    mpoly = models.MultiPolygonField()

    objects = models.GeoManager()

The code to save: 

 ds = DataSource(file_full)

                    for layer in ds:

                        print layer.geom_type

                        for polyg in layer.get_geoms(geos=True):

                            #poly = GEOSGeometry(polyg, srid=4329)

                            orc = Orcamento(session_id = session_id, mpoly = polyg)

                            orc.save()

the OGRINFO for the SHAPEFILE that I create to test

ogrinfo -so teste.shp teste

INFO: Open of `teste.shp'

      using driver `ESRI Shapefile' successful.

Layer name: teste

Geometry: 3D Polygon

Feature Count: 1

Extent: (-43.827768, -20.346558) - (-43.817162, -20.336426)

Layer SRS WKT:

GEOGCS["GCS_WGS_1984",

    DATUM["WGS_1984",

        SPHEROID["WGS_1984",6378137,298.257223563]],

    PRIMEM["Greenwich",0],

    UNIT["Degree",0.017453292519943295]]

Name: String (80.0)

Descriptio: String (80.0)

Can I get a conclusion that I can't create a system to put any kind of shape file (with a Polygon layer) to my system withouth a standard?

Thanks in advance,

Another very good tool is the ogr2ogr command,
Included in GDAL
