I'm using CSS to Style a layer in Geoserver, something like:

{
  mark: url('${getImageUrl(id)}');
   mark-mime: "image/png";
   mark-rotation: [rotationAngle];
}

getImageUrl is a custom Geotools function of mine. The problem is that Geoserver doesn't accept the id as a parameter, it gives the following exception:

ERROR [geoserver.ows] -

If I use any other int field as a parameter it works perfectly. What is the problem?

  • did you register your function?

id is a keyword in CQL, you cannot use it like that. If you have a "id" attribute in your data, and it's visible in GeoServer layer page (e.g., it's not actually the primary key in a database, or you told the store to expose primary keys) then you can try using "id" (notice the double quotes).

As a second note, filter functions do receive the entire feature, so if it's actually the feature identifier you're after, you can also write a function without any parameter and extract the id from the received feature (cast to SimpleFeature, then call getID()).

  • Thanks a lot Andrea, I've tried SimpleFeature.getID() and it works perfectly.

  • However getImageUrl("id") doesn't work. it gives java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Invalid cql expression 'getImageUrl(%22id%22)'

  • And when I use getImageUrl('id') (with a single quote) it gives no exceptions but the function sees a null id
    – Faz B
    Mar 24, 2018 at 8:33
  • Try getImageUrl('${"id"}')

  • It does not work. Please help me as I need it now. I tried the following: mark: url('${getImageUrl('${"id"}')}'); but doesn't work.
