URL Call Interface for Editing for Service API |
|
Via the Service API also editing functionality (point, line, polygon) is provided. Most of the editing parameters equal the URL call interface for editing parameters:
•editaction
•editlayerid
•editkeyfield
•editkeyvalue
•editfields
•editvalues
There is a specific parameter for the editing interface of the Service API:
•geometry: Passes 1 to n vertices where x and y coordinates are concatenated with '%20' or ' ' and the vertices are separated by ';' - i.e.
ogeometry=xcoordinate1%20ycoordinate1;xcoordinate2%20ycoordinate2 or
ogeometry=xcoordinate1 ycoordinate1;xcoordinate2 ycoordinate2
Note: For using the editing functionality a valid edit layer with External-ID and at least one editing field, not NULL, with unique values has to be defined.
The following edit actions ('editaction') are supported using following parameters (values mandatory):
- create: editlayerid, editkeyfield, editkeyvalue (value must not exist yet) and geometry (for point feature class: single coordinates 'x y' e.g. '130223.1175059952 406423.082733813', for line and polygon feature class: multiple coordinates seperated by ';', e.g. '130223.1175059952 406423.082733813;130144.76738609111 406399.82254196645;130160.68225419664 406448.7913669065;130276.98321342925 406394.9256594724')
- edit: editlayerid, editkeyfield, editkeykeyvalue (value has to exist) and (new) geometry (for point feature class: single coordinates 'x y' e.g. '130223.1175059952 406423.082733813', for line and polygon feature class: multiple coordinates seperated by ';', e.g. '130223.1175059952 406423.082733813;130144.76738609111 406399.82254196645;130160.68225419664 406448.7913669065;130276.98321342925 406394.9256594724')
- delete: editlayerid, editkeyfield and editkeykeyvalue (value has to exist)
The parameters editfields and editvalues may be used additionally to the edit actions "create" and "edit". By adding these parameters more attributes can be created and edited. "editfields" comprises a list of editing fields, whereas "editvalues" includes the corresponding values (separated by ;).
Example call:
http://w-ws-wintner/WebOffice_LatestBuild/synservice?project=WebOffice_Project&editlayerid=railroads&editaction=create&editkeyfield=Name&editkeyvalue=Southwest&editfields=Type;Tracks&editvalues=Passenger;2&geometry=1%201
If a field is passed in "editfields" which is also defined as "editkeyfield" the corresponding value will be ignored in "editvalues".
You can test your editing calls using the file 'preview.jsp'. Call it with http://<WebOffice web application>/client_preview/preview.jsp
Sample editing call in Preview.jsp
Sample request for an editing action (create a polygon feature) would be:
../synservice?project=PROJECT&editlayerid=EXTERNALID&editaction=create&geometry=129551.87819025521 406645.0614849188;129503.31554524362 406623.74129930394;129516.3445475638 406581.1009280743;129570.8294663573 406610.71229698375&editkeyfield=FIELDNAME&editkeyvalue=NEWID
