strip ?request=getcapabilities from request before add request=getmap

[pvgenuchten]

not sure if this is an openlayers or wegue issue

if you add a wms layer by url example.com/ows?service=wms&request=getcapabilities

the viewer adds; request=getmap to the querystring, without removing request=getcapabilities

just to verify, the getmap request is send to the submitted getcapabilites url or the onlineresource as advertised in capabilities?

I can reproduce it with

{
    "type": "WMS",
    "lid": "ahocevar-wms",
    "format": "image/png",
    "layers": "topp:states",
    "url": "https://ahocevar.com/geoserver/wms?SERVICE=WMS&REQUEST=GetCapabilities",
    "XXXurl": "https://ahocevar.com/geoserver/wms",
    "transparent": true,
    "singleTile": false,
    "projection": "EPSG:3857",
    "attribution": "",
    "isBaseLayer": false,
    "visible": true,
    "displayInLayerList": true
  },

As far I can see from the code the url is taken as is and no parsing of the capabilities is done.

wegue/src/factory/Layer.js

createWmsLayer (lConf) {

Does it work for you to just skip the query params of your provided url?

Yes it works without the query, a typical use case is to find a record in a catalogue, take the wms url from the record as-is, this url often has the ?request=getcapabilities postfix, splitting at ? Is not a good idea, because some wms urls include a required parameter, like mapserver; map=foo.map
