Scripting extension

the Orbit GIS Script extension brings the power of the Orbit engine to all JSR-223 compatible scripting languages! Java Specification Request 223 specifies a standardized interface for scripting engines and many scripting languages on the Java platform have implemented this interface.

Examples include but are not limited to :

• Groovy
• JavaFX script
• Python
• Javascript
• Java itself (compiled on-the-fly)
• Ruby`
• TCL

The extension comes bundled with the latest version of the groovy scripting language.

To add support for other languages, you should add 2 things to the <orbitgis>/ext/script/jar directory :

1. The jars required by the scripting language
2. The jar implementing the JSR-223 interface

• Sample : Convert Images Recursively
• Sample : Dataset Count
