HTML

specstableimplmature

HTML encoding for every supported resource.

Scope

Conformance Classes

JSON implements all requirements of conformance class HTML from OGC API - Features - Part 1: Core 1.0open in new window for the resources Landing Page, Conformance Declaration, Feature Collections, and Feature Collection.

Configuration

Custom Templates

The HTML encoding is implemented using Mustache templatesopen in new window. Custom templates are supported, they have to reside in the data directory under the relative path templates/html/{templateName}.mustache, where {templateName} equals the name of a default template (see source code on GitHubopen in new window).

Login Provider

For APIs with restricted access using an identity provider with login capabilities, the loginProvider option can be set to enable automatic redirects to the login form of the identity provider for restricted HTML pages. The logged-in user will also be shown on all HTML pages along with a logout button.

WARNING

This functionality uses cookies to retain the login information when navigating between HTML pages. The cookies are neither processed nor passed on to any third party.

In regard to the European GDPR and the German TTDSG we would deem these cookies as technically required. That means if you publish an API with this functionality, you would be required to mention these cookies in the privacy policy. :::6

Info

If the identity provider uses https (which it should), this feature only works if the API is also published using https. The only exception is accessing an API on localhost.
