[OpenLayers-Users] Layer SLD param path (relative?)

[Andreas Hocevar]

Hi,

you may get a better reply on this on the GeoServer users list. But GeoServer supports file uris. So if you have your sld in /home/foo/styles/my.sld, your sld param in geoserver would be
&sld=file:///home/foo/styles/my.sld. By doing so, you don't need http to access your sld.

I am not aware of a path that you could access without specifying the whole path. If you want a shorter url, you could upload the style to geoserver (using either the gui or the restconfig api), and use &styles= instead of &sld=.

Regards,
Andreas.
