RGeoServer is a Ruby client for the GeoServer RESTful Configuration interface.

Requirements:

• GeoServer 2.1.3 or later.

• Ruby 2.2 or later

It provides primitive Ruby model abstraction.

See the GeoServer REST Configuration API Reference

$ gem install rgeoserver

Sample usage from an irb console, using a GeoServer installation with a topp workspace.

$ rake console
> require 'rgeoserver'
> catalog = RGeoServer::Catalog.new
 => Catalog: http://localhost:8080/geoserver/rest
> w = catalog.get_default_workspace
=> RGeoServer::Workspace: topp
> ds = w.data_stores.first
=> RGeoServer::DataStore: states_shapefile
> ds.profile
=> {"name"=>"states_shapefile", 
    "enabled"=>"true", 
    "connectionParameters"=>{
      "url"=>"file:data/shapefiles/states.shp", 
      "namespace"=>"http://www.openplans.org/topp"}, 
    "featureTypes"=>["states"]} 
> ft = ds.featuretypes.first
=> RGeoServer::FeatureType: states 
> ft.profile
=> {:name=>"states", :workspace=>"topp", :nativeName=>"states"}  

> lyr = RGeoServer::Layer.new c, :name => 'Arc_Sample'
=> RGeoServer::Layer: Arc_Sample 
> lyr.profile
=> {"name"=>"Arc_Sample", 
    "path"=>"/", 
    "defaultstyle"=>"rain", 
    "styles"=>["raster"], 
    "type"=>"RASTER", 
    "enabled"=>"true", 
    "attribution"=>{"logoWidth"=>"0", "logoHeight"=>"0"}, 
    "resource"=>{
      "type"=>"coverage", 
      "name"=>"Arc_Sample", 
      "store"=>"arcGridSample", 
      "workspace"=>"nurc"},
    "metadata"=>{
      "GWC.autoCacheStyles"=>"true", 
      "GWC.metaTilingX"=>"4", 
      "GWC.metaTilingY"=>"4", 
      "GWC.gutter"=>"0", 
      "GWC.cachedNonDefaultStyles"=>"raster", 
      "GWC.enabled"=>"true", 
      "GWC.cacheFormats"=>"image/jpeg,image/png", 
      "GWC.gridSets"=>"EPSG:4326,EPSG:900913"}}
> sld = lyr.styles.first
=> RGeoServer::Style: raster 
> sld.profile
=> {"name"=>"raster", 
    "sld_version"=>"1.0.0", 
    "filename"=>"raster.sld", 
    "sld"=>{"sld_name"=>"raster", "sld_title"=>"Default Raster"}}

We use jettywrapper to wrap a test instance of GeoServer. In theory, you should be able to point to any other local installation. Suppose that you download the binary stable version 2.1.3 binary from here, then unzip it under say, /tmp/geoserver-2.1.3. The integration tests are executed as follows:

If you have the test instance running already on port 8080, you can run the tests simply with:

$ rake spec:integration

To generate the documentation run:

$ rake yard

To enter into an Pry console with all classes loaded:

$ rake console

To enable logging from RestClient’s base logger, add an entry in your ‘config.yml` for stdout/stderr or a file:

geoserver:
  logfile: stderr

or

geoserver:
  logfile: 'rgeoserver.log'

• OSGeo The Open Source Geospatial Foundation

• GeoServer

  • Catalog design

• GeoTools

• Implementation in other languages:

  • Python: gsconfig.py

• v0.7 - Major update with keywords, YAML config, REST API, unit testing and cleanup

• v0.5 - Initial alpha release

• Complete data stores and coverages functionality and data upload.

• Complete updating data in objects. On failure, objects should roll back.

• Complete documentation.

• Complete test coverage:

  • Break down testing into separate specs per class.

  • Add more flexibility for integration tests with embedded Jetty and other containers.

  • Add ability to perform integration tests in a CI server.

• Provide more examples:

  • Customize configuration.

  • Connect under SSL.

• Migrate base HTTP client to Faraday?

• Curlify operations: To provide optional log/output of the curl command that would produce the same

result as the ResourceInfo#save method.

• Check out the latest master to make sure the feature hasn’t been implemented or the bug hasn’t been fixed yet

• Check out the issue tracker to make sure someone already hasn’t requested it and/or contributed it

• Fork the project

• Start a feature/bugfix branch

• Commit and push until you are happy with your contribution

• Make sure to add tests for it. This is important so I don’t break it in a future version unintentionally.

• Please try not to mess with the Rakefile, version, or history. If you want to have your own version, or is otherwise necessary, that is fine, but please isolate to its own commit so I can cherry-pick around it.

Inspired on the Rubydora gem. Followed somewhat closely to gsconfig.py
