SDI Library is a java library designed to help developers interact with gCube SDI. It offers clients implementations towards the SDI subsystems (i.e. SDI-Service, GeoNetwork, GeoServer ).

Design

Following diagram illustrate the relations between the various clients components in gcube-sdi-suite.

SDI Clients


To external users, the main component of interest is sdi-library, built on top of the sdi-interface which contains common classes definition. SDI Library exposes basic gCube clients towards [[[SDI-Service]]] REST interfaces. SDI Library also exposes means to dynamically load and instantiate client implementations for specific SDI subsystems (e.g. GeoServer, GeoNetwork).

Philosophy

The library has been designed to maximize isolation of dependencies : common complex logic is supported on services and client implementations are discovered at runtime.


Static Clients

SDI Management

Dynamic Clients

GeoServer

GeoNetwork
