1.2.1.1. PostGRID

Version 0.6-SNAPSHOT (current trunk)

With the new version 0.6.x comes a refactoring of PostGRID.

Linux

Create a .constellation directory in the home directory of the user who runs the tomcat.

Windows

For example, with a Windows installed on C:/ and a user named Cedr, create the directory C:/Document and Settings/Cedr/Application Data/Constellation.

Configuration file

Add a file named coverage-sql.xml in your constellation path :

Here we set the value "no namespace" to the attribute namespace, which means there will be no prefix namespace for the layers. It is possible to put a full url or just a word.

Version 0.5-SNAPSHOT (and all 0.5.x tags)

If you are using the trunk version of Constellation you can use several postgrid on one constellation.

No more config.xml needed.

Linux

Create a .constellation directory in the home directory of the user who runs the tomcat.

Windows

For example, with a Windows installed on C:/ and a user named Cedr, create the directory C:/Document and Settings/Cedr/Application Data/Constellation.

Add a file named postgrid.xml in your constellation path :

Old configuration, before version 0.5.x

This part aims to present how to configure the connection to the database in a file, well known by the Constellation web service. This file has to be named "config.xml" and contains several tags defined below :

Name	Role and usage
Server	server name .
Port	server connexion port .
Database	database nameto connect to.
User	User who will connect to the database, like : geoadmin
Password	Password for the user to connect.
Driver	Driver class to access to the database. Should always be org.postgresql.Driver for postgresql database.
ReadOnly (Optional)	Defines whether the database is accessed in "read-only" mode, if it is defined to true, then it is impossible to write new information. Default: false.
RootDirectory (Optional)	Data should be found in this directory and in its children. If not defined, all paths in the Series table have to be absolutes.
Permission (Optional)	Permission type of access to the webservices.

Here is an example of the configuration file : config.xml

Linux

Create a .sicade directory in the home directory of the user who runs the tomcat. Copy the file config.xml in it and fill the different fields with your personal connection parameters.

Windows

For example, with a Windows installed on C:/ and a user named Cedr, create the directory C:/Document and Settings/Cedr/Application Data/Sicade. Copy the config.xml file in it and fill the different fields with your personal connection parameters.
