[Geoserver-devel] keeping data directory structure naming consistent

Hi all,

Recently new directories have been added to the data directory structure. As we add new directories would we be able to keep naming consistent. And what i mean by consistent is use of underscore notation vs camel back notation. Currently I think the only use of underscore notation has been for the "user_projections" directory.

Not a big issue by any means but i think we should try to be conistent in naming. It came to mind as I see that another directory "loggingConfigs" has been added to support user logging configuration files. On this note any objection to just "logging" :). Dropping the "Configs" part as no other directories use "Configs" as a prefix, but are indeed for configuration.

Apologies if this email comes across as anal.

Sounds good to me. I agree with dropping the 'Configs' from the directory name.

So there are two hings in logging: configs and the actual logs. I feel like these two things should be stored in different directories, but I could be convinced that they could go in some different sub-directory-type-structure.

How about:

data_dir/logs/LOGFILES GO HERE
data_dir/logs/profiles/CONFIG_FILES_GO_HERE

Would this be confusing to have the 'logs' directory also hold the logging profiles?

I'd prefer to have the logs directory also hold logging profiles. Just put 'profile' in the name of the profile files. I don't really like lots of directories in the data directory.

I second this.
