Hi
I’m new to Geoserver and need to create a search functionality that will search based on a field in my shapefile.
Found a layer search control that does what I want, but I’m struggling to implement it and hoped for some advice.
Please see:
https://github.com/webgeodatavore/ol3-search-layer
I tried implementing it but it fails when it tries to call getFeatures() on a layer source (gives an error that the source is undefined or that getFeatures is not a function). From what I understand I need a Vector or ImageVector, but geoserver uses TileWMS and ImageWMS. Is there any way to achieve a similar search control or functionality?
Thank you in advance
Kind regards
Vicky
