Hi guys,
As some are aware, I have written an intermediate server for accessing
files on an object-oriented database, with files in incompatible
formats. For any given file, it works great.
I'd like to now go ahead and produce thredds catalogs from its indexes,
but as new data is constantly being added, it would be nice if this was
dynamic.
If I write a cgi script which would produce a thredds catalog, would the
local server be able to properly interpret and use that? Or would it
assume that it was a reference to another server's catalogs, rather than
realising it is supposed to serve the data itself?

you can't dynamically modify the TDS catalogs. You can use the datasetScan
feature to deal with dynamic files. However, that currently works only on
directory scanners. We are working on a way to plug some code to find out what
the datasets are. Seems like that should work. We can take the details offline.
