Hi all,
I have found that it is often useful to install a vanilla Geoserver on, say
an Amazon instance, then configure it using REST. For some reason I don't
fully understand this is more reliable that simply copying a workspace to
the instance and using that. I wish I knew why that was for sure, but I
suspect that overtime if you allow users to configure Geoserver who are not
experts, the configuration can begin to gather cruft and perhaps get less
stable or maybe simply less portable.
So one solution I thought of is to create a little program that can read a
JSON file and make all the REST requests to configure Geoserver.
Two problems:
1. Maybe it is the wrong solution or someone has already done this
2. The way to configure the different datastores is a little mysterious.
For example if I want to configure a Postgis, I can use the Geotools
connection params for most of the settings on the datastore, but some like
"fetch size" are harder to figure out how to set them. Is there a
place/way I can look this information up?
Thanks,
Jesse
