Good day list members,
I am trying (amateur level) to use the REST interface, to publish an
image-mosaic (works) and a single geotiff (still not working) layers via
a WMS service.
I would kindly ask your feedback if this is the correct way to do that,
and what am i doing wrong for the single geotiff case:
*For the Image mosaic:* I created with the GUI a workspace ("MYWSP") and
a datastore (MYMSC) using the ImageMosaic plugin. I set also a data
location folder where it is updated regularly. For some reason I was not
able to just update the mosaic. So my workaround was to delete the
coveragestore, and the files which contain the shp information and the
*.properties of the mosaic. Then, I recreate it, every time there is new
data available:
curl -v -u admin:pswd -XDELETE
http://localhost:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces/MYWSP/coveragestores/MYMSC?recurse=true
curl -v -u admin:pswd -XPUT -H "Content-type: text/plain" -d
file:///data/geoserver/data/mosaic
http://localhost:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces/MYWSP/coveragestores/MYMSC/external.imagemosaic
This seems to work fine although I am not sure this is the proper way..
*For the single geotiff:* I created a datastore (MYGT) using the GeoTIFF
plugin. With the GUI i can create also a layer "mylayer" which displays
the single geotiff file. I tried to update via REST the layer but no
success:
curl -v -u admin:pswd -XPUT -H "Content-type: image/tiff" --data-binary
file:///data/geoserver/data/sic/test.tiff
http://localhost:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces/MYWSP/coveragestores/MYGT/external.geotiff
I tried also the file.geotiff instead of the external.geotiff with no
success. Its unclear to me how one should use those extensions, and I
could not find any related information.
Here is the output from the last curl command:
* Trying 127.0.0.1...
* TCP_NODELAY set
* Connected to localhost (127.0.0.1) port 8080 (#0)
* Server auth using Basic with user 'admin'

* Curl_http_done: called premature == 0
* Connection #0 to host localhost left intact
It looks that it has a 201 response, but in fact the layer is either
broken or not publish, and I can not visualize it (I use qgis and
loading as WMS layer). I am pretty sure I miss something here.. I would
be grateful for any help on how to proceed with those issues...
Best regards
Panagiotis
