Hi,

Your main consern is, if I understand it correctly,  this:
"We don’t want others to be able to download the full number of features in 
those layers using the “outputformat=SHAPE-ZIP” url method."
What is the practical differense for you if your users could not download data 
as zipped shapefiles, but they could still get the exactly same data in GML 
format?

Aihe: Re: [Geoserver-users] Disable "outputformat=SHAPE-ZIP"

Hello all,

Currently using Geoserver 2.1.3 and OpenLayers 2.12


Our web map uses OpenLayers WFS calls to get the layers we are hosting on our 
own geoserver. However, we don’t want others to be able to download the full 
number of features in those layers using the “outputformat=SHAPE-ZIP” url 
method.

When I go to “Edit Layer Settings” > Publishing > WFS Per Request Feature 
Limit” and change it to anything but 0 (1 for example), only 1 feature will 
display on the map. However, external users are also limited to downloading 
only that number of features. So obviously whatever changes/restrictions I make 
to the WFS settings also affect the layers on our map. Right now changing the 
code to WMS calls is not an option.

Is there any way to actually disable the SHAPE-ZIP outputformat option? Thanks 
for any help!

There is no configuration to do so.
If you are up for a hack, go into WEB-LIB/lib, look for the wfs jar, open it, 
open the applicationContext.xml
file contained in it, and comment out the bean declaration associated to such 
output format, that should do it.

Or even better, consider adding support for really configuring the output 
format availables  (checklist of
available formats, with a possibility to disable some). This would require some 
coding, you can do it
yourself and donate it or look into the "commercial support" section at 
geoserver.org<http://geoserver.org> and find some
core developer that can do it for you

Cheers
Andrea
