There is an "oga_compliance_mode" metadata element already enabled (at the WEB level) that will throw an exception on requests w/extra parameters. --Steve

The extra parameters issue has been discussed before - a major issue is that all cookie parameters are seen as request parameters. See [1] and [2]. I'm not sure if it has been addressed in pygeoapi which is the reference implementation. MapServer also uses parameters for runtime-subsitution so enforcing no extra parameters will break a lot of MapServer workflows. I think it was suggested adding a "strict" WEB METADATA item that would return a 400 error when extra parameters were encountered - this would allow tests to pass fo a particular server. What is the service meant to do with invalid geometry such as that polygon - throw an error? It would be good to open the other items as issues on GitHub to fix.

The validator found a few issues: * Wrong http status code: returns 400, should be 200 https://demo.mapserver.org/cgi-bin/mapserv/localdemo/ogcapi/collections/countries/items?bbox=177.0000000%2C65.0000000%2C-177.0000000%2C70.0000000 * Some tests fail because the service returns invalid geometries. Mapserver actually works right but because of invalid topology the validator fails. For example a geometry of the France multipolygon, somewhere near the French Guiana is invalid due to duplicated vertices at POINT (-52.939657 2.124858). The BBOX in the test was BBOX= -1.5000000,50.0000000,1.5000000,53.0000000. There are other similar geometries showing self-intersection. * If query contains an unknown parameter then our server sends data, but it should error out and send a http 400 error. Test request: https://demo.mapserver.org/cgi-bin/mapserv/localdemo/ogcapi/collections/ocean-labels/items?unknownQueryParameter13515=1 * The Content-Crs header is missing when the request is using the default crs. Test query: https://demo.mapserver.org/cgi-bin/mapserv/localdemo/ogcapi/collections/ocean/items?f=json I have looked at the extra parameter thing from the standard and from the discussions in the OGC GitHub. Notes from the research: The server SHALL respond with a response with the status code 400, if the request URI includes a query parameter that is not specified in the API definition. For omitting unknown "vendor specific" parameters is must be defined in the API as in: query name: vendorSpecificParameters schema: type: object additionalProperties: true style: form If a server wants to support vendor specific parameters, these have to be explicitly declared in the API definition. If OpenAPI is used to represent the API definition, a capability exists to allow additional parameters without explicitly declaring them. That is, parameters that have not been explicitly specified in the API definition for the operation will be ignored. With minor changes Mapserver could get the certificates for OGC API Features Core and CRS. But I wonder what to do with the demo service. The server that is used for the CITE tests must be available online. We could try to fix the existing Natural Earth data and service so that it sends topologically valid geometries. Another option would be to set up another service instance for CITE tests with some known valid datasets. -Jukka Rahkonen- _______________________________________________ MapServer-dev mailing list [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-dev
