Hi, wanted to check if anyone has feedback on how to express rendering transformations in CSS, as it's the one functionality that's still missing from it, compared to SLD.
Say that we start from this SLD as an example: <FeatureTypeStyle> <Transformation> <ogc:Function name="ras:Contour"> <ogc:Function name="parameter"> <ogc:Literal>data</ogc:Literal> </ogc:Function> <ogc:Function name="parameter"> <ogc:Literal>levels</ogc:Literal> <ogc:Literal>1100</ogc:Literal> <ogc:Literal>1200</ogc:Literal> <ogc:Literal>1300</ogc:Literal> <ogc:Literal>1400</ogc:Literal> <ogc:Literal>1500</ogc:Literal> <ogc:Literal>1600</ogc:Literal> <ogc:Literal>1700</ogc:Literal> <ogc:Literal>1800</ogc:Literal> </ogc:Function> </ogc:Function> </Transformation> <Rule> <Name>rule1</Name> <Title>Contour Line</Title> <LineSymbolizer> <Stroke> <CssParameter name="stroke">#000000</CssParameter> <CssParameter name="stroke-width">1</CssParameter> </Stroke> </LineSymbolizer> </Rule> </FeatureTypeStyle> How to do something equivalent in CSS? Here is some variants based on the idea that the rt is part of the selector (the idea is, that's where we would also specify the target type name, if we wanted to). a) 1-1 parallel to the SLD structure ras:Contour(parameter("data"), parameter("levels", 1100, 1200, 1300, 1400)) { stroke: black; } b) Switch to function with named parameters: ras:Contour(data, levels : list(1100, 1200, 1300, 1400))) { stroke: black; } c) Function of functions approach, where each param looks like a sub-function with its value as its arguments (my favorite due to its conciseness): ras:Contour(data(), levels(1100, 1200, 1300, 1400))) { stroke: black; } And here is a variant based on the idea that instead the transform is a parameter, after all, the z-index controlling the creation of new FeatureTypeStyle element is there: * { -gt-trasform: ras:Contour(data(), levels(1100, 1200, 1300, 1400))); stroke: black; } Can someone think of a more compact or better readable syntax?
