GeoServer is a Java-base server that allows users to publish and edit
|
|
geospatial data using open standards.
|
|
|
|
GeoServer is the reference implementation of the Open Geospatial Consortium's
|
|
Web Feature Service (WFS) and Web Coverage Service (WCS) standards, as well as
|
|
a high-performance Web Map Service (WMS). Additional functionality is available
|
|
through the use of plugins.
|
|
|
|
This SlackBuild will install GeoServer as a web application for a Tomcat
|
|
servlet container. The SlackBuild will not overwrite any geoserver.war file
|
|
that has been deployed using /var/lib/tomcat/webapps, but by default they will
|
|
both be using the same /geoserver web path. This path can be changed from its
|
|
default by editing /etc/tomcat/Catalina/localhost/geoserver.xml.
|
|
|
|
The SlackBuild will create a data directory for GeoServer at /var/lib/geoserver
|
|
but will not add any content, meaning that uninstalls, reinstalls, and upgrades
|
|
will not affect existing data directories. Nevertheless, the data directory
|
|
should still always be backed up prior to an upgrade. An empty data directory
|
|
will be populated by a minimal set of configuration files when GeoServer is
|
|
started for the first time.
