[Geoserver-users] Adding an image mosiac layer via REST api

GeoServer GeoServer User

Hello All,

So I’m playing with the rest interface - and have managed to create a workspace and add a single tiff image layer by doing this:

//create workspace
curl -v -u admin:geoserver -XPOST -H “Content-type: text/xml” -d “toby” http://localhost:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces

//create single image layer
curl -u admin:geoserver -XPUT -H “Content-type:image/tiff” --data-binary @/data/ndvi_color1.tif http://localhost:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces/toby/coveragestores/ndvi_color1.tif/file.geotiff

My data is local to the geoserver (ubuntu) in /data directory.

Now I have multiple images in /data/mosaic that I want to add to a mosaic layer…
I’ve been trying something like
curl -v -u admin:geoserver -XPOST -H “Content-type: text/plain” -d “/data/mosaic” “http://localhost:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces/toby/coveragestores/poly-incremental/external.imagemosaic”

But that doesn’t work - I get a 405 Method not allowed error.

I’ve been reading on the web and they say something about uploading the index.shp file in order to be able to do this - is that true? If so how do I create that in the first place?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
Toby

Hi Tobias,
can you please list the content of your /data/mosaic folder?

Also note that you should use a PUT to create a coveragestore instead of POST.

Please, let us know.
Cheers,
Daniele

Hi Daniele,

The contents is just a list of geotiff files, so image1.tiff, image2.tiff . I have about 10 in there.

Re post / put - I was just following the documentation [1]. :slight_smile:

Hi again,

If you want to create a new mosaic store, you should use a PUT like this:

curl -v -u admin:geoserver -XPUT -H “Content-type: text/plain” -d “file://c:/data/mosaic” “http://localhost:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces/toby/coveragestores/poly-incremental/external.imagemosaic”

Once done, you can afterwards add additional files to your store through additional POSTs.

curl -v -u admin:geoserver -XPOST -H "Content-type: text/plain" -d "**file://c:/data/morefiles/sample12.tif**" "[http://localhost:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces/toby/coveragestores/poly-incremental/external.imagemosaic](http://localhost:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces/toby/coveragestores/poly-incremental/external.imagemosaic)"

curl -v -u admin:geoserver -XPOST -H "Content-type: text/plain" -d "**file://c:/data/morefiles/sample13.tif**" "[http://localhost:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces/toby/coveragestores/poly-incremental/external.imagemosaic](http://localhost:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces/toby/coveragestores/poly-incremental/external.imagemosaic)"

OR just add lot of files once by harvesting a whole folder:

curl -v -u admin:geoserver -XPOST -H "Content-type: text/plain" -d "**file://c:/data/evenmorefiles/**" "[http://localhost:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces/toby/coveragestores/poly-incremental/external.imagemosaic](http://localhost:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces/toby/coveragestores/poly-incremental/external.imagemosaic)"

Please, let us know if you still have issues.
Hope this helps,

I think you have removed also the "file://" prefix to specify the protocol.
Make sure to keep it on the request

curl -v -u admin:geoserver -XPUT -H "Content-type: text/plain" -d
*"file://*/data/mosaic"
"
http://localhost:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces/toby/coveragestores/YOURSTORENAME/external.imagemosaic
"

Also - what is the "poly-incremental" thing?

It's the name of a coverage store which has been assigned to that data in
the CURL example provided in the Documentation.
You just need to specify a storename you like so that the REST request will
configure a coverage store with that name.
As an instance: "mymosaic"

Cheers,
Daniele

Thanks
Toby

Hello All,

So I'm playing with the rest interface - and have managed to create a
workspace and add a single tiff image layer by doing this:

//create workspace
    curl -v -u admin:geoserver -XPOST -H "Content-type: text/xml" -d
"<workspace><name>toby</name></workspace>"
http://localhost:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces

http://localhost:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces/toby/coveragestores/ndvi_color1.tif/file.geotiff

My data is local to the geoserver (ubuntu) in /data directory.

Now I have multiple images in /data/mosaic that I want to add to a
mosaic layer..
I've been trying something like

"/data/mosaic" "
http://localhost:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces/toby/coveragestores/poly-incremental/external.imagemosaic
"

But that doesn't work - I get a 405 Method not allowed error.

I've been reading on the web and they say something about uploading
the index.shp file in order to be able to do this - is that true? If so how
do I create that in the first place?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Right - gotcha.

So I put this in and it worked:
curl -v -u admin:geoserver -XPUT -H “Content-type: text/plain” -d “file:/data/mosaic” “http://localhost:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces/toby/coveragestores/S2Output/external.imagemosaic”

I now have a layer called ‘mosiac’ which is in a store called S2Output. All good.
Three things;

  1. Note the “file:/” - rather than “file://”… (linux thing I presume)
  2. I presume I can’t specify a different layer name to be created rather than it take the name of the folder I specify?
  3. If I were now to add new images from a different folder - do those images just get referenced, or copied into the folder of that image mosaic.

Thanks Daniele - helpful as ever!

I think you have removed also the “file://” prefix to specify the protocol.

Make sure to keep it on the request

curl -v -u admin:geoserver -XPUT -H “Content-type: text/plain” -d "file:///data/mosaic" “http://localhost:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces/toby/coveragestores/YOURSTORENAME/external.imagemosaic”

Also - what is the “poly-incremental” thing?

It’s the name of a coverage store which has been assigned to that data in the CURL example provided in the Documentation.

You just need to specify a storename you like so that the REST request will configure a coverage store with that name.

As an instance: “mymosaic”

Daniele

Hi again,

If you want to create a new mosaic store, you should use a PUT like this:

curl -v -u admin:geoserver -XPUT -H “Content-type: text/plain” -d “file://c:/data/mosaic” “http://localhost:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces/toby/coveragestores/poly-incremental/external.imagemosaic”

Once done, you can afterwards add additional files to your store through additional POSTs.

curl -v -u admin:geoserver -XPOST -H "Content-type: text/plain" -d "**file://c:/data/morefiles/sample12.tif**" "[http://localhost:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces/toby/coveragestores/poly-incremental/external.imagemosaic](http://localhost:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces/toby/coveragestores/poly-incremental/external.imagemosaic)"

curl -v -u admin:geoserver -XPOST -H "Content-type: text/plain" -d "**file://c:/data/morefiles/sample13.tif**" "[http://localhost:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces/toby/coveragestores/poly-incremental/external.imagemosaic](http://localhost:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces/toby/coveragestores/poly-incremental/external.imagemosaic)"

OR just add lot of files once by harvesting a whole folder:

curl -v -u admin:geoserver -XPOST -H "Content-type: text/plain" -d "**file://c:/data/evenmorefiles/**" "[http://localhost:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces/toby/coveragestores/poly-incremental/external.imagemosaic](http://localhost:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces/toby/coveragestores/poly-incremental/external.imagemosaic)"

Please, let us know if you still have issues.

<<Sorry for repost - have subscribed now>>

Hello All,

So I’m playing with the rest interface - and have managed to create a workspace and add a single tiff image layer by doing this:

//create workspace
curl -v -u admin:geoserver -XPOST -H “Content-type: text/xml” -d “toby” http://localhost:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces

//create single image layer
curl -u admin:geoserver -XPUT -H “Content-type:image/tiff” --data-binary @/data/ndvi_color1.tif http://localhost:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces/toby/coveragestores/ndvi_color1.tif/file.geotiff

My data is local to the geoserver (ubuntu) in /data directory.

Now I have multiple images in /data/mosaic that I want to add to a mosaic layer…
I’ve been trying something like
curl -v -u admin:geoserver -XPOST -H “Content-type: text/plain” -d “/data/mosaic” “http://localhost:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces/toby/coveragestores/poly-incremental/external.imagemosaic”

Not sure about this. I should investigate or maybe someone else may provide
additional feedback on that.

3. If I were now to add new images from a different folder - do those
images just get referenced, or copied into the folder of that image mosaic.

Do you refer to harvest (=adding more files to an existing mosaic)? In that
case, using the external.imagemosaic format, they should be simply get
referenced .

Cheers,
Daniele
