Difference between PostGIS pgrouting and Lizmap pgrouting

Question

I'm starting to work with pgrouting. I know that pgrouting is an extension of PostGIS. I saw that Lizmap (which I currently work on) provides a module called pgrouting. Two points are drawn from the GIF on the site and the path is traced from there, based on criteria. The work I have to do with pgrounting does not concern the insertion of points, but I have to work with already existing points that I will have to load into the database. I read that pgrouting as an extension of PostGIS allows you to work like this. I have the impression that this Lizmap module is not necessary for what I need to do. I could work directly from the database and use Lizmap to view the processing performed. Maybe it confuses me that they have the same name.

Answer 1

• Lizmap Web Application generates dynamically a web map application (PHP/HTML/CSS/JS) with the help of QGIS Server.
• Lizmap PgRouting Module is a module for Lizmap using pgRouting as a dependency. It allows to draw a start point, a end point and also intermediate points (gif has to be updated) on a map then a request is made to the server which returns the route calculated by pgRouting.
