[Geoserver-devel] [jira] Created: (GEOS-4501) Ability to turn off GetFeatureInfo on a per layer basis

Ability to turn off GetFeatureInfo on a per layer basis
-------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: GEOS-4501
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-4501
             Project: GeoServer
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Chris Holmes
            Assignee: Gabriel Roldán
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 2.1.x, 2.2.x

INSPIRE has particular requirements about GetFeatureInfo, so before people meet those they'll often want to put up a WMS Service that just doesn't offer GetFeatureInfo. We should provide a way to turn GetFeatureInfo off for a layer, ideally in the GUI and the RESTConfig. This should be reflected in the capabilities document (queryable=0), and the end point should not respond.

In time it might be nice to make this a security setting, so it can be available to some users but not all.

IGN France is working on a patch for this.
