Make Heron stateful #291

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
Heron can currently benefit from GeoExt.state.PermalinkProvider() to save 
current map state to a permalink. With huge number of layers this permalink 
could by so long it can overhaul HTTP service. It can by even longer with 
enabling other stateful components like state of layer tree (expanded/collapsed 
branches) etc.

I think we could avoid this with:

- using other ExtJS state provider (Cookie, some HTTP provider as 
http://www.sencha.com/forum/showthread.php?24970-Buffering-Http-State-Provider 
- maybe via heron.cgi?)
- shortening permalink URL to acceptable length (I'm using currently ow 
modified PermalinkProvider with 
http://polymaps.org/ex/pale-dawn.html#13.20/37.7701/-122.4440 Polymaps schema) 
and/or use some internal shortener (like 
http://suite.opengeo.org/geoexplorer/composer/ does)

Sorry for typos like by-be, ow-own. I think I lost my E key somewhere... Or my 
head too. Hope you'll get the point.
