[Geoserver-devel] [jira] Created: (GEOS-621) Web admin tool: import/export configuration

Web admin tool: import/export configuration
-------------------------------------------

         Key: GEOS-621
         URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-621
     Project: GeoServer
        Type: Wish

  Components: Configuration
Environment: Not important
    Reporter: Bart van den Eijnden
Assigned to: dblasby

It would be nice if the web admin tool would have an option to export the current configuration, and another option to import the configuration. This would make remote upgrading easier, as well deploying a Geoserver config over multiple machines.

The config would need to include:
* settings like character set etc.
* catalog.xml
* featuretype definitions

E-mail for reference:

Currently no. You have to manually copy your data_dir. But that would be a nice feature, and I don't believe it would be _all_ that hard to implement. If you put a 'wish' in the JIRA we can track it and not forget about this good idea.

best regards,

Chris

Hi list,

is it possible to export Geoserver's configuration using the web-based
admin tool? And after that, to import it into a new instance?

Best regards,
Bart
