[Geoserver-users] Automating layer publishing via API

GeoServer GeoServer User

Hi Team,

I have been trying to automate publishing the layers via geoserver rest api but finding difficulties in fully customise it in my way.

Essentially, I need to

  1. Create workspace- no issues
  2. Create Postgres datastore - found issues, database type not identified.
  3. Publish multiple layers from a single postgres table with different CQL filter. - looking for documentation or working examples.

It would be really helpful if someone can help me pointing to good examples or documentation, especially format of REST requests.

Thank you in advance.

To get a working example, configure the layer with the CQL filter you want, and then use the REST API to see what was written out.

You are welcome to contribute to the documentation once you have that example.
