wish: leaflet.wms GetFeatureInfo

[Arevaju]

Plugin for Leaflet WMS GetFeatureInfo request: https://github.com/heigeo/leaflet.wms
Thanks

The plugin only works under leaflet 1.x JS, while leaflet R package still uses 0.7.x. I will integrate the plugin as soon as leaflet moves to 1.x.

Any clue when leaflet will move to 1.x?

[bhaskarvk]

There's already some work in progress for that rstudio/leaflet#357

Closing for now. Feel free to reopen when Leaflet goes to 1.x

Has GetFeatureInfo been implemented? This seems to be a highly requested feature (see https://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/334004/enable-wms-getfeatureinfo-request-in-leaflet-using-r)

I started implementing this plugin in leaflet.extras2. You can find it here: https://github.com/trafficonese/leaflet.extras2.
It's not on CRAN yet, but I would be happy if you give it a try and tell me if it meets your needs.

Thanks @trafficonese for the leaflet.extras2 package, this is great work! The GetFeatureInfo feature works well! The only small detail (probably unrelated to the leaflet.extras2::addWMS() function) is that i cannot control the popup box size (see picture below). I have tried unsuccessfully to change A and B within popupOptions(maxWidth = A, minWidth = B).

[trafficonese]

Thank you! I'm glad you find it useful!
I just pushed a commit, which includes the popupOptions argument for addWMS, so you should be able to include popupOptions = popupOptions(maxWidth = 600) for example.
I also included another example which does just that.

Thanks again @trafficonese, it works now! :)

I'd I tried around a lot, but I doenst't work in my case. I tried it with my data first and then I used your example https://github.com/trafficonese/leaflet.extras2/blob/master/inst/examples/wms_popup.R. If I use leaflet.extras2::addWMS() there is no WMS displayed. If I use the same with addWMSTiles (and without the popup) I can see the WMSmap but I can't use the popup Feature for the getFeatureInformation I really need.

[trafficonese]

Could you please open an issue here https://github.com/trafficonese/leaflet.extras2/issues and include your sessioninfo::session_info()? It works for me, but I am still on leaflet '2.0.1'
