Hello, I’m trying to implement a GetFeatureInfo request using HTTP POST
with the data in JSON format.
Instead of doing something like:
$http.get(‘http://geoserver/
GetFeatureInfo&service=WMS&version=1.1.1&BBOX=-9.268684387207031%2C38.697769425719144%2C-9.048957824707031%2C38.78580303175891&width=2560&height=1315&query_layers=Pingo+Doce%2CTarget+ACP&layers=Pingo+Doce%2CTarget+ACP&info_format=application%2Fjson&feature_count=50&x=1476&y=579&cql_filter=(1%3D1)%3B(whatever+%3E+100)
’);
I want to be doing a POST request as such:
$http.post(url,
{
request: 'GetFeatureInfo',
service: 'WMS',
version: '1.1.1',
BBOX: bbox,
width: width,
height: height,
query_layers: layersString,
layers: layersString,
info_format: 'application/json',
feature_count: '50',
x: x,
y: y,
cql_filter: filtersString
},
{"headers" : { "Content-Type" : "application/json; charset=UTF-8" }
});
However, it appears that GeoServer is expecting a XML input or something,
the response I get is:
<ows:ExceptionText>org.xmlpull.v1.XmlPullParserException: only whitespace
content allowed before start tag and not - (position: START_DOCUMENT seen
-... @1:1)
only whitespace content allowed before start tag and not - (position:
START_DOCUMENT seen -... @1:1) </ows:ExceptionText>
</ows:Exception>
Is it not possible to make a POST request with JSON data? L
No, it's not possible, GetFeatureInfo is only defined as a GET request.
As an out of WMS standard addition, you can do a form POST with the same
parameters as the GET request.
There is no support for either XML or JSON (well, posting JSON is not
supported by any OGC protocol at all).
Cheers
Andrea
