WMS Loader

Opens a dialog in which a WMS can be loaded via the getCapabilities request. It is possible to load WMS 1.1.1 and WMS 1.3.0.

Configuration

• Open automatically: Opens the element when application is started (default: false).

• Split layers: Splits layer on load of the service (default: false).

• Title: Title of the element. The title will be listed in Layouts and allows to distinguish between different buttons. It will be indicated if “Show label” is activated.

• Default format: image/png, image/gif, image/jpeg (default: image/png).

• Default info format: text/html, text/xml, text/plain (default: text/html).

You need a Button to show this element.

How to add a WMS by defining a link

You can add a WMS to Mapbender by defining a link, e. g. in your FeatureInfo or your search results. The link has to look like this:

<a href="#"
mb-action="source.add.wms" mb-layer-merge="1" mb-wms-merge="1"
mb-wms-layers="Gewaesser,Fluesse"
mb-add-vendor-specific="bplan=123"
mb-url="http://wms.wheregroup.com/cgi-bin/germany.xml?VERSION=1.1.1&REQUEST=GetCapabilities&SERVICE=WMS">load service</a>

mb-action="source.add.wms"         # defines action to add a  WMS
mb-wms-merge="1"                   # adds the WMS only once, if WMS is already part of the application it will use the WMS which is there (default: 1)
mb-layer-merge="1"                 # activate the layers passed mb-wms-layers and do not disable the layers which are already active (default: 1)
mb-wms-layers="Gewaesser,Fluesse"  # defines the layers to be activated, _all activates all layers, default all layers are deactivated
href oder mb-url                   # refer to the WMS getcapabilities URL
mb-add-vendor-specific="bplan=123" # define a vendor specific that will be added to the requests (version 3.2.9 and up)

This template can be used to insert the element into a YAML application.
