Hi List,
I'm working on simplifying a bit the steps needed to configure an
ImageMosaicJDBC based on PGRaster.
http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOT-4507
Right now, I'm playing with Wicket in order to allow specifying
configuration parameters from the GUI (PG server, port, pguser, databaset,
...) so that it can be passed down to the AbstractGridFormatReader as a
special URL.
something like: pgraster://user:pass@server:port:database.schema.table.....
I have voted for this approach since while looking for examples, I have
seen that the ArcSDE store panel does something similar.
sde://user:pass@server:port/instance
When doing some tests right now, I have noticed that the ResourcePool
always converts the coverageStore url String to a File (by using the
GeoserverDataDirectory.findDataFile utility method).
I'm not sure about how this allows the sde://user:pass@server:port/instance
String url to be interpreted as a File (I didin't check the arcSde store
code).
I was thinking if instead of changing the ImageMosaicJDBC code to try to
parse Files having similar strange path (pgraster://something), we could
relax somehow this "force to be a File" behaviour on ResourcePool..
We could probably modify the findDataFile to return a File only in case it
really deals with a file:
(file:/ + file: + /some/path/to/something + c:/ + ....) and skip
"peculiar" cases like:
myformat://customSyntax.
We can probably think about returning null (as a File, to continue passing
down a string) in case we see a "something://" prefix longer than a certain
amount of chars (to make sure that C:/ still work)... (Do we risk by this
way to improperly parse some peculiar network mapping / protocol I'm
unaware of?)
What are your thoughts on this topic?
Please, let me know.
Best Regards,
Daniele
