Part 1: Core

Draft

Implementation based on current specification draft (KVP is not part of Processes 1.0, but it’s part of the current draft)

Installing the GeoServer OGC API - Processes module

  1. Download the OGC API nightly GeoServer community module from geoserver-2.28.x-ogcapi-processes-plugin.zip.

    Warning

    Verify that the version number in the filename corresponds to the version of GeoServer you are running (for example geoserver-2.28-SNAPSHOT-ogcapi-processes-plugin.zip above).

  2. Extract the contents of the archive into the WEB-INF/lib directory of the GeoServer installation.

  3. On restart the services are listed at http://localhost:8080/geoserver

Configuration of OGC API - Processes module

The module is based on the GeoServer WPS one, follows the same configuration and exposes the same processes (so for example, it’s possible to limit the processes one wants to expose via the same configuration mechanisms as WPS).
