Dear Geoserver development team,

I contact you to ask you advice on the procedure to add code examples in the GeoServer online documentation on how to interact with the REST API by means of the R software.

Indeed i've been developing an R package called /geosapi/ (https://github.com/eblondel/geosapi/wiki) that is used as R interface to the GeoServer REST API.

It is not robust as the equivalent Java /geoserver-manager, /but///geosapi/ already offers a range of operations, including CRUD operations for /workspaces, namespaces, datastores, featuretypes, layer/s and /styles, /as well as the methods to upload data to Geoserver. geosapi still miss the features to manipulate coverage stores, but I hope this will come soon. The R package also follows a clear testing procedure, with regular integration tests, and it is already under release lifecycle for the official CRAN packages repository (https://cran.r-project.org/package=geosapi).

Although there is extensive documentation on /geosapi/, both online and through the embedded R document, I believe it could be valuable to add some entry point through the Geoserver documentation here http://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/rest/index.html

Looking forward to your advice,

Best regards,

Emmanuel
