Hi Jelmer, There is no issue using MapServer to handle WFS POST requests, but it seems as though this functionality was never implemented for the MapScript bindings.
See links: https://github.com/MapServer/MapServer/issues/1788#issuecomment-42658553 > To implement this, we would need to actually implement the msIO_bufferRead() > function in mapio.c, and add a function to push data into this buffer > (something roughly like msIO_getStdoutBufferString() and > msIO_getStdoutBufferBytes() from mapscript/swiginc/msio.i but in the > opposite direction). > And also https://github.com/MapServer/MapServer/issues/2681#issue-3960720 So two options - 1) add in the functionality for msIO_bufferRead (which would be a nice addition to MapServer), or 2) use the other MapScript querying mechanisms as documented at https://geographika.github.io/MapServer-documentation/mapscript/querying.html Seth -- web:http://geographika.co.uk twitter: @geographika On Mon, May 31, 2021, at 10:45 AM, Jelmer Baas wrote: > Hi all, > > Well, that route was a short one.
