Installing the Parameter Extractor extension¶

The Parameter Extractor extension is listed among the other extension downloads on the GeoServer download page.

The installation process is similar to other GeoServer extensions:

1. Login, and navigate to About & Status > About GeoServer and check Build Information to determine the exact version of GeoServer you are running.

2. Visit the website download page, change the Archive tab, and locate your release.

   From the list of Miscellaneous extensions download Request parameters extractor.

   • 2.28.0 example: geoserver-2.28.0-params-extractor-plugin.zip

   • 3.0-SNAPSHOT example: geoserver-3.0-SNAPSHOT-params-extractor-plugin.zip

   Verify that the version number in the filename corresponds to the version of GeoServer you are running (for example 2.28.0 above).

3. Extract the contents of the archive into the WEB-INF/lib directory in GeoServer. Make sure you do not create any sub-directories during the extraction process.

4. Restart GeoServer.

If installation was successful, you will see a new Params-Extractor entry in the left menu, under “Settings”.
