Hello
First I would like to understand how
rest api works.
I tried to upload a geotiff file via
rest api.
For example if I want to create a
layer of type coverage I upload the file with this
synthaxe:
http://localhost:8081/geoserver/rest/workspaces/namespaceName/coveragestores/coverageStoreName/url.geotiff
and I push the url of the file into
the httpurlconnection outputstream.
this atually create a folder in
/workspaceName/CoverageStoreName create a xml file named coverageStore.xml and
put et layer.xml and a coverage.xml.
The problem is that it also copies
the geotiff file into /data directory instead of putting it into
/data/layerName
inorder to be rendered by geoserver.
I don’t understand
why.
I found another
synthaxe:
http://localhost:8081/geoserver/rest/workspaces/namespaceName/coveragestores/coverageStoreName/file.geotiff
that put the right file in the
right folder in /data/LayerName but doesn’t create the configuration files
associated with the coverage.
Could you please explain how RestApi
works in this case .
I have another
question:
When I try to upload a big file, the
jvm returns an out of memory exception. Is there a limited data size to post by
restApi?
In this case, how can I post Big
files wich are pyramid-shaped with gdal.There is a utility that produce an
index
shapefile and a property file but How can I insert this in geoserver
layers.
Last
question:
How is it possible to update a layer
or a lyergroup for example via rest with method PUT but without writing all the
xml code into the httpUrlConnection outputStream.
Is it possible for exemple to add a
layer to a layergroup only with the xml code of the
layer.
I don’t have question anymore.
Thnank you for by advance for you answer.
