Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

OpenLayers WFST

Tiny WFS-T client to insert (drawing/uploading), modify and delete features on GeoServers using OpenLayers. Layers with these types of geometries are supported: GeometryCollection (in this case, you can choose the geometry type of each element to draw), Point, MultiPoint, LineString, MultiLineString, Polygon and MultiPolygon.

Tested with OpenLayers version 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9.

Usage

const wfst = new Wfst({

map.addControl(wfst);

Useful methods

See [#wfsSource]

wmsLayer.setCustomParam('cql_filter', `id = 28`);
wmsLayer.setCustomParam('env', `tags=true`);

Adding features programatically

const feature = new ol.Feature({
    geometry: new ol.geom.MultiPoint([[`-57.1145}`, `-36.2855`]])
});
const inserted = await myWmsLayer.insertFeatures([feature]);

if (inserted) {
    alert('Feature inserted');
} else {
    alert('Feature not inserted');
}

Events

wfst instance events

wfst.on(
    ['modifystart', 'modifyend', 'drawstart', 'drawend', 'load', 'visible'],
    function (evt) {
        console.log(evt);
    }
);

wfst.on(['describeFeatureType'], function (evt) {
    console.log(evt.layer, evt.data);
});

Geoserver events

geoserver.on(['getCapabilities'], function (evt) {
    console.log(evt.data);
});

Layers events

WMS Layer

wmsLayer.on(['change:describeFeatureType'], function (evt) {
    console.log(evt);
});

Source TileWMS Events

wmsLayer.getSource().on([...])

WFS Layer

wfsLayer.on(['change:describeFeatureType'], function (evt) {
    console.log(evt);
});

VectorSource Events

wfsLayer.getSource().on([...])

Some considerations

  • If the features/vertex appear to be slightly offset after adding them, check the Number of Decimals in your Workplace, you may have to increment that to have a more accurete preview.
  • You can configure a Basic Authentication or an HTTP Header Proxy Authentication with this client, but in some cases is recommended setting that on an reverse proxy on the backend.
  • If you don't use a reverse proxy, remeber configure cors
