[mapserver-users] text size from field but with an expression

2012-10-04 Thread Andrea Peri
Hi,
I have a label with the size from a field of attributes.
But I need to change this size adding always a costant factor.

I need someting like:

LABEL
  ...
  SIZE expression([field1]+10)
  ANGLE [field2]
END

This seem don't allowed.

Is this right ?

Thx,

correct. if you are using a db backend, you can let the db do this for you:

DATA the_geom from (select id,the_geom,field1+10 as field1, field2
from mytable) as foo using unique id using srid=xxx

Re: [mapserver-users] Map file keyword dictionary

2012-10-04 Thread thomas bonfort
I've updated the vim syntax file for 6.2, which has no omissions as
far as I can tell. You can extract the keywords from there:

 Hi All

 Can anyone point me to a list of ALL keywords used within a mapfile?
 Looking at using this within a Rich Text Editor to color and identify.



 Much apprecaited

Re: [mapserver-users] MapServer and shapefile

2012-10-04 Thread Fabio Brolese
Trying using shapefile as base layer I didn't find where to put my shapefile 
and to let them seen by MapServer. The examples say me to set the map file 
correctly but not where to save the shp files how to say to MapServer where 
thay are. Is there a directive in the main map file where to set the location 
of shp files like I set the log file path and etc.

TIA

Fabio

If your map vector is not huge, and processing time is not a problem - 
something greater then a few seconds for a tile - you can use a WMS layer as 
base.
Just add isBaseLayer true to parameter options on layer.
This should be minimal to change.
At my sites I did not note WMS overhead on requests.
You should know that OpenLayers is greed and will issue several concurrent 
requests to server. Processing spikes will happen.


For larger sets you maybe at the need of some cache stuff.
Consider using one in a programming language you know in case you need do 
maintenance in source code.
Or if confortable with some, create your particular simple cache maybe an 
option.

Yes, sorry, I was talking about OpenLayers.
I understood and is like I did with all the layers I set pointing on PostGIS. 
I have also a base layer set as OpenLayers.Layer.TMS that load image tiles 
to show the city map. What we want to do is to change the base layer to read 
the city map from shapfile instead of reading image tiles.


Do you know if there is a way to do what we want or do I have to reconsider 
my structure and consider and use it as OpenLayers.Layer.WMS?

Hi,

Because you talk about base layer I think that you are perhaps going to show 
your map in OpenLayers. If that is the case then the answer is yes and this 
OpenLayers example shows how it can be done.
http://dev.openlayers.org/releases/OpenLayers-2.12/examples/wms-untiled.html
On the Mapserver side you must configure a WMS layer that is using shapefile 
as
 input data.

 Hello everybody,
 after a long search on Google I'm here to ask you if it's possible to use 
 a shapefile as base layer.
 Everything I found was on exporting to shapefile or drawing objects from 
 shapefile but nothing saying that I can use it as base layer.

Can anyone help me?

TIA
