RESTConfig doesn't auto-configure Coverages (SRS/Bounds) like it does with FeatureTypes/WMS
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: GEOS-4596
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-4596
Project: GeoServer
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Configuration
Affects Versions: 2.1.0
Reporter: Robert Coup
Assignee: Justin Deoliveira
If you do a POST to {{/rest/workspaces/foo/coveragestores.json}}:
{code}
{
"coverageStore": {
"name": "myCoverage",
"workspace": {
"name": "foo"
},
"type": "ImagePyramid",
"enabled": true,
"url": "/path/to/my/pyramid"
}
}
{code}
and then a second POST to {{/rest/workspaces/foo/coveragestores/myCoverage/coverages.json}} to create the coverage:
{code}
{
"coverage": {
"name": "myCoverage",
"nativeName": "myCoverage",
"title": "My Coverage",
"abstract": "Some description",
"srs": "EPSG:2193",
"projectionPolicy": "FORCE_DECLARED",
"enabled": true,
"nativeFormat": "ImagePyramid",
"defaultInterpolationMethod": "bilinear",
"parameters": {
"entry": [{
"string": ["AllowMultithreading", True]
}]
},
"requestSRS": {
"string": "EPSG:2193"
},
"responseSRS": {
"string": "EPSG:2193"
}
}
}
{code}
The coverage creates fine, but the Native/LatLon bounds are not set -- which then crashes (eg. GetCapabilities) requests and generally does bad things. Obviously I can specify them manually, but it'd be miles better if GeoServer auto-calculated them like it does in the UI. The same POSTs work fine for Feature Types and the bounds are auto-calculated.
Looking at the code, there are {{CatalogBuilder.initFeatureType()}} and {{CatalogBuilder.initWMSLayer()}} methods which do this auto-detection, but the same thing doesn't occur for coverages. {{CatalogBuilder.buildCoverage(AbstractGridCoverage2DReader reader, Map customParameters)}} does it, but is only called for PUT requests which include an attached file, not for POST requests.
Thoughts?
