Hi, I suggest to add most parts of the mail from Michael Smith http://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/mapserver-users/2013-November/075559.html into Mapserver WFS server document http://mapserver.org/ogc/wfs_server.html. It is about an easy way for making Mapserver to serve GeoJSON from WFS. Actually, is there something that prevents GeoJSON output from being one of the internally supported default outputformats without a need to configure it separately in each WFS mapfile? It could be deactivated with "wfs_getfeature_formatlist" if necessary.
This is the mail I refer to: "Peter, You can use OGR outputformats. Add something like this to your mapfile OUTPUTFORMAT NAME "geojson" DRIVER "OGR/GEOJSON" MIMETYPE "application/json; subtype=geojson" FORMATOPTION "STORAGE=stream" FORMATOPTION "FORM=SIMPLE" END Add to your LAYER or MAP METADATA, "wfs_getfeature_formatlist" "geojson" And then in your WFS call add &outputformat=geojson. This will return geojson directly in the browser, if you need it to download, you can change the FORMATOPTION to FORM=ZIP See http://mapserver.org/output/ogr_output.html for more detail.
