## Full documentation

The documentation for this project is moved here: [https://geoserver-rest.readthedocs.io/](https://geoserver-rest.readthedocs.io/).

## Overview

The `geoserver-rest` package is useful for the management of geospatial data in [GeoServer](http://geoserver.org/). The package is useful for the creating, updating and deleting geoserver workspaces, stores, layers, and style files.

## Installation

```python
conda install -c conda-forge geoserver-rest
```

For the `pip` installation, check the [official documentation of geoserver-rest](https://geoserver-rest.readthedocs.io/en/latest/installation.html)

## Some examples

Please check the [https://geoserver-rest.readthedocs.io/](https://geoserver-rest.readthedocs.io/) for full documentation.

```python
# Import the library
from geo.Geoserver import Geoserver

# Initialize the library
geo = Geoserver('http://127.0.0.1:8080/geoserver', username='admin', password='geoserver')

# For creating workspace
geo.create_workspace(workspace='demo')

# For uploading raster data to the geoserver
geo.create_coveragestore(layer_name='layer1', path=r'path\to\raster\file.tif', workspace='demo')

# For creating postGIS connection and publish postGIS table
geo.create_featurestore(store_name='geo_data', workspace='demo', db='postgres', host='localhost', pg_user='postgres',
pg_password='admin')
geo.publish_featurestore(workspace='demo', store_name='geo_data', pg_table='geodata_table_name')

# For uploading SLD file and connect it with layer
geo.upload_style(path=r'path\to\sld\file.sld', workspace='demo')
geo.publish_style(layer_name='geoserver_layer_name', style_name='sld_file_name', workspace='demo')

# For creating the style file for raster data dynamically and connect it with layer
geo.create_coveragestyle(raster_path=r'path\to\raster\file.tiff', style_name='style_1', workspace='demo',
color_ramp='RdYiGn')
geo.publish_style(layer_name='geoserver_layer_name', style_name='raster_file_name', workspace='demo')

# delete workspace
geo.delete_workspace(workspace='demo')

# delete layer
geo.delete_layer(layer_name='agri_final_proj', workspace='demo')

# delete style file
geo.delete_style(style_name='kamal2', workspace='demo')
```

## Contribution

Geoserver-rest is the open source library written in python and contributors are needed to keep this library moving forward. Any kind of contributions are welcome. Here are the basic rule for the new contributors:
