Checklist

Reviewing is a process done by project maintainers, mostly on a volunteer basis. We try to keep the overhead as small as possible and appreciate if you help us to do so by completing the following items. Feel free to ask in a comment if you have troubles with any of them.

For all pull requests:

• Confirm you have read the contribution guidelines
• You have sent a Contribution Licence Agreement (CLA) as necessary (not required for small changes, e.g., fixing typos in the documentation)
• Make sure the first PR targets the master branch, eventual backports will be managed later. This can be ignored if the PR is fixing an issue that only happens in a specific branch, but not in newer ones.

The following are required only for core and extension modules (they are welcomed, but not required, for contrib modules):

• There is a ticket in https://github.com/GeoNode/geonode/issues describing the issue/improvement/feature (a notable exemption is, changes not visible to end-users)
• The issue connected to the PR must have Labels and Milestone assigned
• PR for bug fixes and small new features are presented as a single commit
• PR title must be in the form "[Fixes #<issue_number>] Title of the PR"
• New unit tests have been added covering the changes, unless there is an explanation on why the tests are not necessary/implemented

Submitting the PR does not require you to check all items, but by the time it gets merged, they should be either satisfied or inapplicable.

Summary of Changes

Hello @mattiagiupponi, I'm Gemini Code Assist¹! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request addresses critical compatibility issues with Python 3.12 by implementing targeted fixes across the codebase. The changes primarily involve updating regular expression definitions to use raw strings for correct interpretation, modernizing Shapely exception handling to align with current library versions, and pinning the setuptools dependency to prevent specific runtime warnings. These adjustments collectively aim to ensure the application's stability and smooth operation within the Python 3.12 environment.

Highlights

• Python 3.12 Compatibility: This pull request introduces several adjustments to ensure GeoNode remains compatible and stable when running on Python 3.12.
• Regex Raw String Fixes: Regular expression patterns used in url_path definitions across various view files (assets, base API, layers API) have been updated to use raw strings (prefixed with r). This prevents potential issues with backslash interpretation in newer Python versions.
• Shapely Exception Handling Update: The geonode/catalogue/backends/pycsw_local.py file has been updated to catch the more general ShapelyError instead of the deprecated WKBReadingError and WKTReadingError, ensuring compatibility with newer versions of the Shapely library.
• Setuptools Version Pinning: The setuptools dependency in requirements.txt and setup.cfg has been explicitly pinned to versions less than 80. This is a targeted fix to avoid known runtime warnings related to the polymorphic model when running with Python 3.12.

Code Review

This pull request introduces several important fixes for Python 3.12 compatibility. The changes correctly address DeprecationWarnings for invalid escape sequences in regular expressions by converting them to raw strings. Additionally, it updates the exception handling for the shapely library to use the new ShapelyError, which is a necessary change for newer versions. The version pinning for setuptools is a practical solution to avoid runtime warnings. Overall, these are good changes that improve the project's compatibility with modern Python versions. I have a couple of minor suggestions for code cleanup.
