Hello Gary, Andrea, all,
I would like to make a comment in this thread since it might be related and
affecting the code that I am developing. I loaded shapefiles into
PostGis/Geoserver. In layer preview I can see the layers and I can download the
KML files as well.
Using these files I am creating vector layers format KML with openlayers and
they are not showing up. To avoid CORS, and for testing purposes, I am hosting
the KML files in dropbox. When I click the link in drop box, Google earth
starts and the layers are there.
I used that exactly same dropbox links in my openlayers application and the
layers do not show up. I checked the features of the layers with the following
code and it returns “Count after change: 0” in the console, meaning there is no
features in the KML files.
wms_bmid_pipes.getSource().on('change', function(evt){
var source = evt.target;
if
(source.getState() === 'ready') {
var numFeatures = source.getFeatures().length;
console.log("Count after change: " + numFeatures);
}
});
I’ll appreciate any comments you might have.
TIA.
JJ.

Thank you so much for clarifying that one (…so quickly)!
I was beginning to think I was just stupid :)

I have KML files which I would like to serve out via Geoserver. Perhaps I am
missing something, but I don’t see how to create a layer from a KML file –
there only seems to be options to create layers from Shapefiles. All
references to KML I have found on the web seem to relate to exporting KML, not
importing it.
Can anyone point me in the right direction please?
There is no such a thing as publishing a KML as is, that's why you cannot find
it.
The closest thing we have is importing the KML into a target data store
(postgis, shapefile) from where we can publish using the importer extension.
However, that will make it lose its styles.
Adding the ability to publish from KML directly, using its native styling,
would indeed be nice. I've just added a page describing
what to do in case of feature requests, you can have a look at it:
https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/wiki/Successfully-requesting-and-integrating-new-features-and-improvements-in-GeoServer
This one would be one of the complex ones, proposals and all, since we'd need
to start carrying around features with their own "native" style, something
we don't have in the programming interface right now (SLD is all about
separating data from styling, KML is the polar opposite).
Cheers
Andrea
