[Geoserver-devel] Request for early backport : [GEOS-9436]Monitor extension : Ignore Post processors

Dear List,

The monitor extension has received an improvement where users can now disable un-necessary post processors from configuration file. Complete details can be found at https://osgeo-org.atlassian.net/browse/GEOS-9436.

An early backport is humbly requested.

regards,
Imran

Not sure I understand, in this context what is a post processor?

+0 looks like an isolated change, without any impact unless the user explicit activates the functionality

@Jody, this description help me understood what’s going on (from the doc):

Ignore Post Processors
----------------------

The monitor passes request information through post processors which enrich the request
information with DNS lookup, Location using IP database etc. It is possible to disable
these post processors if some enrichments are not required with ignorePostProcessors
property of the monitor.properties file.

This parameter takes comma separated names of known post processors.
The valid values are reverseDNS,geoIp,layerNameNormalizer

Hi Jody,

The monitoring extensions passed incoming OWS requests through a series of processes to yield information, which is used to create a monitoring record which is later used in stats calculation. These processes are basically implementations of a single interface. Currently, with the monitoring extension enabled, each OWS requests is processed by all implementations for post processing an OWS requests, To enrich the monitoring record, the post processors cross match information between OWS request and external info sources (e.g GeoIP information) or Reverse DNS lookups etc. There might be times when these enrichments are not desired, so this improvements allows user to disable the post processing through configuration file, as pointed out by Nuno. For backward compatibility, all processors are enabled by default, until specifically mentioned with correct name in properties file.

regards,
Imran
