Hi,

I'm trying to get a Geopackage working in latest (2.16) Geoserver as
WMS-T (WMS with a Time Dimension).
The data has a geom table with a polygon-"grid" column, a dataset with
several  time-based values per 'cell', AND a view which joins them together.
The 'Time'-column is a seconds since epoch column.

I found that Sqlite does not have a real datetime format, but does have
several options to produce Datetime's based on text or integer columns [0].
But I failed to create a view which could be understand by Geoserver
that the column created was an actual 'datetime'
Anybody experience with this, or maybe have some more info?

I also found that the geopackage spec defines a DATE and DATETIME type
[1] Requirement 5, but saves it as an sort of iso-string. Creating such
a column did not work either.
With Geoserver I had the same issue: geoserver did not recognize the
column as a DateTime.

So I wonder: should I be able to use a Geopackage as a DataStore for a
layer, to serve as a WMS-T with a TIME dimension?
Did I miss something?
Maybe do some remapping of types?

Any hints/tips would be appreciated.

Regards,

Richard Duivenvoorde
