support for GeoServer

[brianyoungblood]

Would be nice to also include support for json output from GeoServer. I just found this project, and will fork and work on it hopefully soon. If you think it's low hanging, please add it on the next release. Would be really useful for many.

I've a local branch for this but apparently haven't pushed up here. So hold off on too much work. I'll updated this thread.

I'm getting started on this. Do you know of any public GeoServer instances I can use to test/demo?

[brianyoungblood]

We have GeoServer behind a proxy, but the wfs service can be queried if you want some points. Let me know if that works for your testing.

@JasonSanford and @brianyoungblood Hello Jason/Brian

Will it possible for you to include me as a contributor for this. After lot of searching on my part for the right technology I have narrowed down on GeoWebServer + GeoWebCache on AWS EC2 with Leaflet + Leaflet Vector Layer for my web based GIS app for Indian subcontinent.

@JasonSanford : i have sent you an email in this regards as well.If possible please answer the queries I have wrt to leaflet vectorlayer

I built this functionality (sort of) into a set of Leaflet extensions: https://github.com/azgs/azgs-leaflet

I extended the GeoJSON layer to make WFS GetFeature requests. Geoserver's WFS implementation will spit out GeoJSON as an outputFormat, so it works smoothly.

My code could use some work, and may or may not be applicable to your framework here, but if you're not too far into an implementation yet or it needs a reboot, I'd be interested in trying to help.

While it would be nice to see a true WFS implementation for Leaflet, using the GeoJSON output from Geoserver is a nice way to short-circuit your way into supporting vector data from another server application.
