[Geoserver-users] geoserver WFS getFeature does not allow both bbox and filtter queries at the same time

Hi,

When running the following:

http://localhost:8080/geoserver/wfs?SERVICE=WFS&VERSION=1.0.0&REQUEST=GetFeature&TYPENAME=vector%3Agv_collaboration_points%2Cvector%3Agv_collaboration_lines%2Cvector%3Agv_collaboration_polygons%2Cvector%3Apush_pins&MAXFEATURES=20&BBOX=-117.165737%2C32.749554%2C-117.155692%2C32.759598&filter=(%3CFilter%3E%3CPropertyIsEqualTo%3E%3CPropertyName%3Egv_layer_lst%3C%2FPropertyName%3E%3CLiteral%3Epolygon1_ngauser%3C%2FLiteral%3E%3C%2FPropertyIsEqualTo%3E%3C%2FFilter%3E)

I get the following response:

−

filter and bbox both specified but are mutually exclusive

How can I run a geoserver WFS GetFeature against both a bbox and a filter or do I need to embed the bbox within the filter?

Thanks,

–

They are mutually exclusive, so yes, you have to embed the BBOX filter in
the FILTER.

Best regards,
Bart

You do need to embed. To clarify, this is no GeoServer limitation, it's
part of the OGC specification itself (proably one of the behaviour
stated in the spec docs that the OGC conformance tests are actually
testing too).

Hi,

Would anyone have an example of integrating bounding box with an attribute query all within the same filter parameter?
Below is a filter just against the attribute but I need to understand how to integrate the below filter with a bounding box filter.

filter = “(gv_layer_lst” +
loadVectorLayerName +
“)”

Thanks,

John

Below is a filter just against the attribute but I need to understand
how to integrate the below filter with a bounding box filter.

          filter =
"(<Filter><PropertyIsEqualTo><PropertyName>gv_layer_lst</PropertyName><Literal>"
+
                        loadVectorLayerName +
                        "</Literal></PropertyIsEqualTo></Filter>)"

This is a valid POST request with the two filters and-ed. Justtake the
filter part and strip the ogc: prefixes, and you'll be able to use it
as a FILTER=xxx GET parameter:

<wfs:GetFeature service="WFS" version="1.0.0"

      <ogc:And>

          </gml:Box>
        </ogc:BBOX>
        <ogc:PropertyIsEqualTo>

         </ogc:PropertyIsEqualTo>
      </ogc:And>
   </ogc:Filter>
  </wfs:Query>
</wfs:GetFeature>

Hope this helps
