Add attribute filter parameters for a WMS or featureserver served resource

[yvesm]

It is currently impossible to send attribute values as parameters to filter a WMS or featureserver request.

WMS

??

FeatureServer

FS requests are used for vector layers of course but also to fill in dropdown boxes for a shortcut widget.

FS accepts some parameters in the url, like :

http://../featureserver.cgi/parcels?queryable=use_type&use_type__ilike=Forest

for a string parameter or :

http://.../featureserver.cgi/parcels?queryable=land_id&land_id__gte=8

for a numeric parameter.

However, it is not possible to specify a range of numeric values like :

http://.../featureserver.cgi/parcels?queryable=land_id&land_id__gte=2&land_id__lte=8

Can FS be modified to accomodate such requests or maybe a new MapFish service could be used ?

GP

What needs to be added in the GP code ?

There are now widgets doing that :

• #175 - AttributeFilter, uses FeatureServer service
• #231 - WFSFilterBuider, uses WFS service

So I'm closing this ticket as a duplicate.
