This is the plugin for Geoserver various kind of requests. Using this plugin, we can make WMS, WFS, getLegendGraphic, WMS-Image request.
[demo

### Installation and setup
- **using NPM**:
```js
npm install leaflet-geoserver-request
```
- **Quick use** :
```html
```
### Web-Map-Service (WMS) Request
WMS request will provides georeferenced map image.
```js
var wmsLayer = L.Geoserver.wms("http://localhost:8080/geoserver/wms", {
layers: "topp:tasmania_roads",
});
wmsLayer.addTo(map);
```
##### WMS options
| Option | Type | Default | Description |
| ----------- | ------- | --------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| layers | string | undefined | This is required filed. If you have multiple layers, you can add them in a comma seperated values: "workspace:layer1,workspace:layer2" |
| format | string | image/png | formate of the wms request. It may be image/jpeg, image/tiff, application/openlayers |
| transparent | boolean | true | transparent of the map |
| CQL_FILTER | string | INCLUDE | To filter the layer based on their attribute. [read more about this](https://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/tutorials/cql/cql_tutorial.html) |
| zIndex | integer | 1000 | zIndex of the layer |
| attribution | string | layer | attribution of the layer. It will be added at the bottom-left cornor of the map |
| style | string | undefined | style file associated with that layer. If you didn't provide the style field, it will take default style of the layer |
### Web-Feature-Service (WFS) Request
In WFS request, you need to enable the `jsonp` for GeoServer. By default, `jsonp` for GeoServer was desabled. open `$GEOSERVER_HOME\webapps\geoserver\WEB-INF\web.xml` file and uncomment following line,
```xml
ENABLE_JSONP
true
```
**Note:** WFS request only applicable for vector layer, not for raster
```js
var wfsLayer = L.Geoserver.wfs("http://localhost:8080/geoserver/wfs", {
layers: "topp:tasmania_roads",
});
wfsLayer.addTo(map);
```
##### WFS options
| Options | Type | Default | Description |
| ------------- | ------------------ | --------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| layers | string | undefined | This is required filed. If you have multiple layers, you can add them in a comma seperated values: "workspace:layer1,workspace:layer2" |
| style | js object/function | null | The style file can be in form of javascript oject or function. eg `style = {color: "black",fillOpacity: "0", opacity: "0.5" } |
| onEachFeature | function | null | Common region to add this feature is to add popup when the layer cicked. [more detail](https://leafletjs.com/examples/geojson/) |
| CQL_FILTER | string | INCLUDE | To filter the layer based on their attribute. [read more about this](https://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/tutorials/cql/cql_tutorial.html) |
| fitLayer | boolean | true | The map automatically zoomed into the loaded data region |
### Web-Mapping-Service-Image (WMSImage) request
This is the custom request naming by me. It will generate the image which will zoomed to the desired location. The main different between `wms` and `wmsImage` request is, it can be zoomed to the desired location based on vector layer.
There are certain convention for this request. Please read carefully
- The first layer must be vector layer in option `wmsLayers`. Rest of other layers can be vector or raster
- You need to provide the same number of data list in `wmsLayers`, `wmsCQL_FILTER` & `wmsStyle` fields
- The map will zoomed to the first parameter of `wmsCQL_FILTER` region
- The default value for the style and cql_filter will be include
- The wmsLayers and wmsId fields are required field
```html
![]()
```
```js
L.Geoserver.wmsImage("http://localhost:8080/geoserver/wms", {
wmsLayers: [
"workspace:first_layer",
"workspace:second_layer",
"workspace:third_layer",
],
wmsCQL_FILTER: ["district=='Syangja'", "INCLUDE", "INCLUDE"],
wmsStyle: ["style1", "style2", "INCLUDE"],
format: "image/png",
wmsId: "wmsImage",
width: 300,
height: 300,
});
```
### Legend Request
The legend request will provide the crossponding legend of the layer to the bottom-left position of the map. In case of not providing style parameter, it will take the default style from GeoServer.
```js
var layerLegend = L.Geoserver.legend("http://localhost:8080/geoserver/wms", {
layers: "topp:tasmania_roads",
style: `stylefile`,
});
layerLegend.addTo(map);
```
### Advance WFS request demo
```js
var wfsLayerAdvance = L.Geoserver.wfs("http://localhost:8080/geoserver/wms", {
layers: "topp:tasmania_roads",
style: {
color: "black",
fillOpacity: "0",
opacity: "0.5",
},
onEachFeature: function (feature, layer) {
layer.bindPopup("this is popuped");
},
CQL_FILTER: "district='Syangja'",
});
map.fitBounds(wfsLayerAdvance.getBounds());
wfsLayerAdvance.addTo(map);
```
