[Geoserver-devel] New Plugin Documentation

Hi,

I am looking at creating a new plugin for the Geoserver web coverage service branch.

Is there any documentation, guides, steps which can guide me in doing so?

Thanks in advance.

What kind of plugin? If it's just a new coverage format then check the GeoTools docs and examples.

If it's more extensive, you'll want the 1.4.x branch, see: http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOSDEV/Home Particularly: http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOSDEV/3+A+Simple+PlugIn and indeed most all of: http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOSDEV/4+Programmers+Guide

But the best thing to do is probably just to describe what you're thinking of doing, and some kind people on the list may help out with suggestions.

best regards,

Chris

Hi Jonathan,

Here is a tutorial on how to write a simple plugin.

http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOSDEV/3+A+Simple+PlugIn

But, depending on what type of plugin you want to create, the wcs stuff may or may not be set up to be pluggable.

Can you describe a little bit about what you want to do?

Thanks.

Ciao Jonathan,
could you provide a bit more details about your intentions,objective,
level of involvement, time plan?

Afterwards we could discuss on how to help you out with this.

Hi Simone,

I am looking at creating a plug-in for Geoserver WCS branch. I want to create a new plug-in so the request getCoverage can support a new file format. So far, I've worked out I have to implement these four interfaces from GeoTools,

Format, GridCoverageReader, GridCoverageWriter, GridCoverageFactorySpi.

Wrap them up in a jar, put it on the classpath and Geoserver will do the rest.

I was hoping someone could point me to some documentation which gives any more advice, technical details of successfully creating a plug-in.
