[Geoserver-devel] Geoserver windows installer build script

Hi,

I’ve made a PowerShell script that implements the instructions:
https://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/developer/win-installer.html

https://github.com/talos-gis/geoserver-win-installer-compiler/blob/master/geoserver-win-installer-compiler.ps1

The script clones the Geoserver repo, downloads NSIS and the required plugin, unzips, copies the required files from the git repository and compiles the installer.

p.s. The NSIS script requires the files LICENSE.txt, GPL.txt that are not present in the bin archive and needed to be copied from the git repo (The instructions missing this part).
The script handles that as well.

Feel free to use.

Kind regards,
Idan

If you wish to include these instructions in our developers guide please make a pull request.

(Ideally we would like to have a windows build server to generate signed installers again)
