Custom headers on Leaflet TileLayer WMS

leaflet-wms-header

Custom headers on Leaflet TileLayer WMS. It's a simple plugin that allow to set custom header for WMS interface.

Added : Custom headers on Leaflet TileLayer. It's a simple plugin that allow to set custom header for TileLayer interface. I add to remove the "DomEvent.on( ... " stuff. not sure how to add it.

It works with javascript and typescript without any dependencies!

Based on Leaflet/Leaflet#2091 (comment).

Javascript

$ npm install leaflet leaflet-wms-header --save

<!-- Assuming your project root is "../" -->
<script src="../node_modules/leaflet/dist/leaflet.js"></script> 
<script src="../node_modules/leaflet-wms-header/index.js"></script> 

// YOUR LEAFLET CODE

var wmsLayer = L.TileLayer.wmsHeader(
    'https://GEOSERVER_PATH/geoserver/wms?',
    {
        layers: 'ne:ne',
        format: 'image/png',
        transparent: true,
    },
    [
        { header: 'Authorization', value: 'JWT ' + MYAUTHTOKEN },
        { header: 'content-type', value: 'text/plain'},
    ],
    null
).addTo(map);

Typescript

$ npm install leaflet @types/leaflet leaflet-wms-header --save

import * as L from 'leaflet';
import 'leaflet-wms-header';

// YOUR LEAFLET CODE

let wmsLayer: L.TileLayer.WMSHeader = L.TileLayer.wmsHeader(
    'https://GEOSERVER_PATH/geoserver/wms?',
    {
        layers: layers,
        format: 'image/png',
        transparent: true,
    }, [
        { header: 'Authorization', value: 'JWT ' + MYAUTHTOKEN },
        { header: 'content-type', value: 'text/plain'},
    ],
    null
).addTo(map);

Abort parameter

Abort parameter allow to abort the http request through an Observable. This optimization function might be usefull to stop the http request when it is not necessary anymore, mostly if many requests are pending. An example is provided on /tests/system-tests.html .

See below an example using an Observable as "abort" parameter.

let tileLayer: L.TileLayer.WMSHeader = L.TileLayer.wmsHeader(
    'https://GEOSERVER_PATH/geoserver/wms?',
    {
        layers: layers,
        format: 'image/png',
        transparent: true,
    }, [
        { header: 'Authorization', value: 'JWT ' + MYAUTHTOKEN },
        { header: 'content-type', value: 'text/plain'},
    ],
    this.abortWMSObservable$.pipe(take(1))
);
