 Iván Hernández Cazorla | Hi everyone. | 20:19:42 |
| Iván Hernández Cazorla | I am reading about Maps because I need to integrate it with Semantic MediaWiki. | 20:20:08 |
| Iván Hernández Cazorla | I read in its wiki that it allows to export to KML:
https://maps.extension.wiki/wiki/KML_export | 20:20:36 |
| Iván Hernández Cazorla | But, could it be possible to import a KML in a OpenStreetMap layer as it was done by the Google Maps extension?

I read in its wiki that it allows to export to KML:
https://maps.extension.wiki/wiki/KML_export Now it seems that maps.extension.wiki is down :/ | 20:22:34 |
| Iván Hernández Cazorla | Ups, I think I just found something useful:
https://www.semantic-mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Maps/mapping_service | 20:24:16 |
| Iván Hernández Cazorla | However I understand that kml parameter only works for Google Maps. | 20:25:41 |
| Iván Hernández Cazorla | So a possible workaround may be to convert the KML to GeoJSON and then use geojson parameter. | 20:28:31 |

Now it seems that maps.extension.wiki is down :/ Wow nice timing! I was just upgrading the thing. Was only down for a minute or two | 20:47:45 |

| Jeroen | Do you want to display data stored in SMW on a map via a query? If so, you can do that directly with format=map. No need to use something like KML | 20:48:50 |

Do you want to display data stored in SMW on a map via a query? If so, you can do that directly with format=map. No need to use something like KML Yes, that would be really nice. However, the client I am working with has several KML files for areas. | 20:49:51 |
| Jeroen | So you have a query that returns a list of KML files? | 20:51:54 |
| Jeroen | There currently indeed is no KML support for Leaflet. Pull request welcome. Could also implement this myself if there is some funding, in which case, PM me. | 20:53:32 |
| Iván Hernández Cazorla | No, I have several pages that uses <googlemaps> tag from the Google Maps extension. This tag contain URL to KML files to show the areas. | 20:54:35 |
| Iván Hernández Cazorla | At this moment there is nothing in SMW. | 20:54:41 |
| Iván Hernández Cazorla | I am just preparing the model and examples to show them. | 20:55:00 |
| Iván Hernández Cazorla | Because I am going to update their MediaWiki wiki, but I am convincing them to use SMW due the possible advantages for their project. | 20:55:44 |

| Jeroen | That sounds like a good pragmatic approach. (Assuming you do not have 9 million files to convert) | 21:23:20 |

That sounds like a good pragmatic approach. (Assuming you do not have 9 million files to convert) 9 million files! It would be crazy, unless the conversion would be automatized. | 21:25:35 |
 hexmode | Is there a way, out of the box, to sort smw results by page title? | 22:36:41 |
| hexmode | https://www.semantic-mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Sorting says that if sort= is blank then the value of the first column is used, but that doesn't seem to be true | 22:46:10 |
| hexmode | I'm expecting a caseless search that uses the whole page name, but it seems to put lowercase at the end and sort by sub page name rather than the full name | 23:17:42 |
| hexmode | hmmm might have to add a property to sesp | 23:20:27 |

https://www.semantic-mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Sorting says that if sort= is blank then the value of the first column is used, but that doesn't seem to be true I tried a test in a page and blank sort works as expected, sorting by the page title. | 11:40:46 |
