[mapserver-users] mapserver queries and java / javascript

[Lime, Steve D (MNIT)]

It’s certainly possible to execute native MapServer queries via OpenLayers or Leaflet. I originally wrote jbox (and dbox, a pure JavaScript implementation) but abandoned those long ago for OpenLayers and Leaflet. I’d have to see your app to comment on appropriateness of each.

Thanks for your answer Yves.

I didn't know about lealet, which seems interesting: I will probably give it a try, for another application at least! And I know about OpenLayers. But if I'm not wrong, this implies to develop a new interface, where I would prefer to keep my MapServer app.

Besides, do they allow to make queries like MapServer does? The way MapServer does is perfect for my interface: select multiple georeferenced objects and browse through the results to download the ones of interest.

Thanks again
Arthur

Hello Arthur

You can find such features in two main projects:
* OpenLayers: http://www.openlayers.org/
* leaflet: https://leafletjs.com/

Regards,

Y.

Hello,

Years ago there was a Java code called JBox, which were very nice to
make multiple queries by drawing a box on the map (which you could also
use in browse mode to zoom).

With the restrictions on Java in modern web browsers, I would like to
replace JBox with something else, maybe some Javascript, but I can't
find help about this by myself, so I come to you!

I'm not super familiar with JS, even though I can write some stuff. Do
you know about some examples / libraries to have this box tool?

Thanks!
Arthur
