从Rails连接到GeoServer

Question

I've built an OpenGeo Suite simple editor app using this tutorial: http://suite.opengeo.org/docs/latest/webapps/ol3/templates.html#creating-an-editor-application .

To see it, I have to run suite-sdk debug -g http://localhost:8080/geoserver /path/to/myapp to connect to geoserver.

I want to move the map with layers to my Rails app, but have no idea how to connect to geoserver from there.

Answer 1

Once you have geoserver, you connect to it using a Javascript Web-Mapping Library. The easiest one to get started with is Leaflet . From there on in it's fairly standard web development. If you want click interactivity, there's a few way to do it, but there's a really good one using ajax, so let me know if you want to do that.
