Hi List,

I am currently trying to specify an external graphic in my SLD using
variables - making it dynamic.

<OnlineResource xlink:type="simple"
xlink:href="https://mydomain.com/get/${grid_id}/${env(time)}/2007-12-31T23:00:00.000Z/10.svg"
/>

The idea is to make use of URL parameters. I have a time enabled WMS,
thus the "TIME" parameter is contained in the URL.

I want to access the time parameter and add it to my URL. Problem is,
that only 5 predefined query parameters / calculations can be used in
SLD as described in the variable substitution documentation via the env
function (e.g. "wms_bbox"). Besides, using the env function in the
"xlink:href" attribute of the external graphic seems to be unsupported
or broken, as GeoServer tries to find the given env attribute on the
layer, which obviously does not exist, and fails with:


"The requested Style can not be used with this layer. The style
specifies an attribute named 'time', not found in the topp:test layer".
So i would like to accomplish two things and ask for your opinions: *
Allow adding all query params to the RenderingVariables class
(src/main/java/org/geoserver/wms/RenderingVariables.java) or at least
some obviously missing ones like time * Get the env function working in
this specific place Any opinions / objections on this? Maybe security is
an issue when simply adding all query parameters to the rendering
variables. Greetings, Johannes
