Re: [MapServer-users] How to fetch a wfs layer in openLayers
Hello,
A least, you seem to got issues from 2 parts:
First,
```
const featureRequest = new ol.format.WFS().writeGetFeature({
srsName: 'EPSG:3857',
featureNS: 'http://openstreemap.org',
featurePrefix: 'osm',
featureTypes: ['emprise_3857'],
outputFormat: 'application/json',
filter: new ol.format.filter.equalTo('numoa', '25366'),
})
```
You want to use namespace whereas I'm not sure Mapserver use the same
namespace or use any at all. The original server in the OpenLayers sample
alias `http://openstreemap.org` to `osm` as you can see at
https://ahocevar.com/geoserver/wfs?request=GetCapabilities&service=WFS&version=2.0.0
2nd issue: as you guessed, maybe, your Mapserver may not return JSON. You
send it a POST with XML e.g `new
XMLSerializer().serializeToString(featureRequest)` where your
`featureRequest` contains `outputFormat: 'application/json'`. You may try
using `outputFormat: 'application/gml+xml; version=3.2'`. I suppose your
Mapserver support WFS 2.0 otherwise you may need `text/xml;
subtype=gml/2.1.2` or `text/xml; subtype=gml/3.1.1`
In all case, before you try the part
```
.then(function (json) {
...
...
})
```
To troubleshot, you may change you code to
```
fetch(`http://blabla/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?MAP=c:/.../naasp_ol.map`, {
method: 'POST',
body: new XMLSerializer().serializeToString(featureRequest),
})
.then(function (resp) {
return resp.text();
})
.then(function (text) {
// See potential errors message
console.log(text)
})
```
To troubleshot, most of the time, I go "outside" of my OpenLayers code.
OpenLayers generates magically a payload to send to a Mapserver endpoint.
In fact, except, the syntax is in JS, the first issue is about sending the
"right" content to this endpoint.
If you go to
https://openlayers.org/en/latest/examples/vector-wfs-getfeature.html, open
your browser Developper Tools, use the Network panel, filter to get the
post http call and use the "Copy as curl"
https://everything.curl.dev/usingcurl/copyas, you will see the exact POST
content send to Mapserver endpoint
With this, you can simply debug by changing the content and run CURL in the
command line. Not sure it's more easy than JS but at least you will avoid
the JS language barrier to make your http calls to Mapserver endpoint.

Thomas Gratier

Re: [MapServer-users] MB Tiles vs. UTF grids
Hello, You have the answer at https://github.com/mapbox/mbtiles-spec#utfgrid Two specs. In old days, utfgrid was part of the mbtiles spec directly - mbtiles = contains raster or vector tiles - utfgrid = store in the same scheme (xyz) json blob to be able to make interactive map Most of the time, when using mbtiles = you create a sqlite file pregenerated and you serve raster/vector tiles and optionally utfgrid using a small server without any mapping logic. The advantage = any hosting can do it. Drawback = Can't refresh on the fly. The alternative approach is to use a web map server that's able to read a geospatial datasource and output from it an image/vector/utfgrid like if it was serve from a mbtiles with yoururl///.png (for raster) or yoururl///.pbf (for vector) or yoururl///.json (for utfgrid) but the data behind behind the scene is not stored in a mbtiles. Advantage = clients libraries (OpenLayers, Leaflet,...) are able to consume raster/vector tiles or utfgrid like if served from static mbtiles. Drawback = special hosting to deploy and use your web map server. Not sure it's enough clear.

Re: [mapserver-users] server geojson data as input to map file
Hi Jeff, Could be wrong but your exemple use a static GeoJSON file whereas flask datasource would more probably be http://urlflaskserver/my_end_point/layername.geojson So CONNECTIONTYPE OGRCONNECTION "name.json"DATA "layername" would be CONNECTIONTYPE OGRCONNECTION "/vsicurl/http://urlflaskserver/my_end_point/layername.geojson"DATA "layername" FYI, above untested but considering it may work because it could inherit from GDAL/OGR behaviour like below and already mentioned for other datasources e.g https://mapserver.org/input/virtual-file.html#configure-mapserver-layer Be aware that remote consumption a least on ogrinfo need an url ending like it's a file e.g # Working because geojson extension in the url (so GDAL can guess it's a GeoJSON) ogrinfo -so https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvkelso/natural-earth-vector/master/geojson/ne_10m_airports.geojson # Not working whereas it's a GeoJSON https://ahocevar.com/geoserver/wfs?request=GetFeature&service=WFS&version=1.1.0&outputFormat=application/json&typenames=usa:states ogrinfo -so /vsicurl/ https://ahocevar.com/geoserver/wfs?request=GetFeature&service=WFS&version=1.1.0&outputFormat=application/json&typenames=usa:states Regards Thomas Gratier Le mer. 16 juin 2021 à 16:24, Jeff McKenna a écrit : > Hi Ahmet, yes in fact I recently worked on those documentation steps: > https://mapserver.org/input/vector/geojson.html > > Please let me know if that page needs any enhancements. > > -jeff > > > > -- > Jeff McKenna > GatewayGeo: Developers of MS4W, MapServer Consulting and Training > co-founder of FOSS4G > http://gatewaygeo.com/ > > > > > On 2021-06-16 11:20 a.m., Ahmet Temiz wrote: > > Hi, > > My server(flask) publishes data as geojson. > > Can I get this data to mymapfile's Data as online? > > > > regards > > > > > > -- > > Ahmet Temiz > > Jeoloji Müh. > > Afet ve Acil Durum Yönetimi Başkanlığı > > Deprem Dairesi Başkanlığı > > > > > > > > > > Ahmet Temiz > > Geological Eng. > > > > Disaster and Emergency Management > > of Presidency > > > > ___ > > mapserver-users mailing list > > mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org > > https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users > > > > ___ > mapserver-users mailing list > mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org > https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users > ___ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users

Re: [mapserver-users] Mapserver docs and i18n
Hello Jeff, hello all, *# First think to understand* I praise the Mapserver community and the team behind the engine. I'm a big fan of Mapserver and Sphinx and I've always love the really great documentation but I know people who deal only with there native language to do the job. So translation is a core part of a project to extend popularity accross countries (althought Mapserver popularity is already established) My motivation is to deal with the french translation with i18n and not with RST. I want to make think better, the way we do it is good but can be improve. Why? Some thoughts to explain below *# Advantages* *1. Fulfillment* Really important for me because a community is based on humans who search small and big achievements and it's more easy with i18n to measure the job. Imagine one rst file of 1000 lines (around 100 lines of empty lines or special rst declarations) You generate is equivalent in pot file. The number of string to translate is 430 Offline: Step by step you see what you've done and can by example, see that you've done 86 lines so, 20% of the job is done for the file. Your objective to go until 30%. When you reach it, you're happy. You've done 10% more of the file translation. Online: See this online app based on pottle for the Qgis community. You can see the http://translate.qgis.org/fr/qgis-user-guide/ example. In this case, you can make a survey of users who contribute, you can review with others, you now if a file translation is completed. You can distribute task between the community of users and not only of advanced users / developpers. You can have a dedicated community of translators who care about content and not about the way to use sphinx and others technical things. *2. Separate presentation from contents* When you generate pot files, the string length is quite short. You don't have to care too much about rst indent : you will not break anything. If the presentation change, you content don't. I'm thinking about the annual change for FOSS4G image. You have to backport it manually with a merge in every langage version. *3. History and maintainability* *## The typical workflow now* You cut and paste a rst file and you make the translation. Ok it's nice!! Why does I need to care about i18n? This guy is crazy!! Because now imagine, you've done the translation 3 years ago (your community said "do it" and it was done). The content was in english (the letter are use to represent a block of content in master version and number for content of translated example) In the past EnglishFrench A 111 B 22 C 33 D 44 E 55 77 H 88 Nowadays B ?? C ?? D ?? FF ?? ?? H ?? The way you do if you kept during three years the file you use to translate the original Compare both english version A dissapear B seems to stay the same (B is a block so are you sure there no typo fixed?) C is the same D is the same E dissapear FF appear is the same H is the same Now find in the french file the corresponding I now A dissapear in english so let's go delete it in the french version Find the equivalent in french of A (where it begins and finish) and delete it Find B block in english and see what was the french string corresponding and replace now Do the same for C, D E dissapear so where is french equivalent (more difficult to find where it begins and finish) to delete FF appear so translate Find G block in english and see what was the french string corresponding and replace now. Do the same for H. You get at the end the result. You just do a semantic three way merge manually (and I haven't imagine a case where there was reordering of content or small string fix) B 22 C 33 D 44 FF 66 77 H 88 *## I18N workflow* First translation EnglishFrench A 11 B 22 C 33 D 44 E 55
[mapserver-users] Mapserver docs and i18n
Hello list, I've been working since some weeks on making i18n available in Mapserver docs. I've done some translation in the past of french part and I was fed up with maintaining rst files languages to languages and not simple shorts strings. For the french part, I've already backported all to i18n system. I've already submit a pull request (e.g https://github.com/mapserver/docs/pull/7) on Github but a community feedback is welcome because this request can change the way we do translations on the project. For already existing translation, things can stay as they 're depending on every langage community. You can read more about the process https://github.com/ThomasG77/docs/wiki/How_to-i18n All inputs are welcome against like for Regards ThomasG77 ___ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users

Re: [mapserver-users] srid dropped at postgis request
Hello, Why your bbox cover an area outside the Lambert II projected bounds (e.g. http://spatialreference.org/ref/epsg/27572/ )? Maybe your using the wrong projection because your POLYGON coordinates look like this one http://spatialreference.org/ref/epsg/2154/ If you're sure your data are in the right projection, do your data in PostGIS with an srid 27572 et not -1?

Re: [mapserver-users] Connecting to remote MapServer WMS/WMF layers using PHP/OpenLayers
Hello,
Look with firebug the tiles url when hovering. There have wrong url
Not sure it will solve everything but
server = "http://"; + location.host + "/";
must be something like
server = "http://www.catastroloscabos.gob.mx/";
and because of this change all case like
mlayer = new OpenLayers.Layer.MapServer("Manzanas",
server + "www.catastroloscabos.gob.mx/cgi-bin/mapserv.fcgi?", {
map: '/home/juribe/webcatastro/catastro.map',
layers: 'm',
map_imagetype: 'png'}, {singleTile: true, isBaseLayer: false});
map.addLayer(mlayer);
will look
mlayer = new OpenLayers.Layer.MapServer("Manzanas",
server + "cgi-bin/mapserv.fcgi", {
map: '/home/juribe/webcatastro/catastro.map',
layers: 'm',
map_imagetype: 'png'}, {singleTile: true, isBaseLayer: false});
map.addLayer(mlayer);
If you have others issues, the best is to post now to the users-openlayers
list
http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/openlayers-users because your
questions for the moment seems to be more related to client side and not to
mapserver.
