Full Changelog: v1.1.0...v1.2.0

v1.1.0

Finally, v1.1.0 is out!

The list of changes in this release is significant. The main new features are:

Support for WMTS

The WMTS protocol is now supported and the GetCapabilities document will be parsed to extract various informations. A handy helper called getOpenLayersTileGrid ils also provided to offer a better integration with OpenLayers; note that this helper will only work if the ol package (OpenLayers) is present in the same project!

Support for OGC API Records and Features

Strong support for OGC API endpoints is finally in. OGC API endpoints are structured around collections, each collection being either of type "record" or "feature". the OgcApiEndpoint class provides many helper functions and getters to query the list of collections, the details of each one, as well as generating a URL for querying items either as bulk (in various formats) or as paginated and filtered results (typically as GeoJSON).

Please look at the documentation and example for more info!

Other changes

• WMS and WFS endpoints now offer helper functions in case they only contain one layer
• The library is now distributed as ES modules instead of one unique JS bundle
• The API documentation on the website is generated dynamically from the source code!

A huge thanks to all the contributors that helped bring this release forward!

• fast xml parsing capabilities
• using a worker for heavy tasks
• able to read WFS and WMS capabilities as well as fetch a lot of info on a WFS endpoint!
