[Geoserver-devel] Available Filters Community Module Proposal

Hi all,

I would like to propose a community module to add a RESTful interface for describing the filters available for a particular layer. This would entail two new request types, “getFilters”, and “getFilterValues”. A “getFilters” request would return a list of the available filters, with their names and types. A “getFilterValues” request would describe the valid values of a particular filter. This would make it easier for users to discover the filter functionality available to them.

Regards,

Alex
