ParameterDescription
-f, --file <filename>

Filename of a text file that has a list of base URL's for the WMS services. Each line in the file should contain a single WMS URL.

-u, --url <url>

The base URL for the WMS service, this can be added more than once, but the -f command can also be used for multiple URL's.

-e, --envelope <minx,miny,maxx,maxy>

The envelope to use to draw the map. This is alternative to -l, and can not be set if -l is set.

-l, --location <x,y,scale>

The centre location to use to draw the map. This is alternative to -e, and can not be set if -e is set.

-c, --crs <crs>

The CRS to use for the map requests. If not set a suitable CRS wil be determined by the following logic:

  • If all layers support WGS84 that will be used
  • If all layers have a common CRS one of those will be used
  • If a layer supports WGS84 that will be used
  • If a layer supports any other CRS that will be used
-x, --maxscale <scale>

The maximum scale to use to generate the map.

-s, --size <width,height>

The width and height, in pixels, of the generated map image. The default is 400,400

-D, --dpi <DPI>

DPI to use when creating the map images. The default is 90.71.

-t, --timeout <timeout> 

The network timeout in seconds. The default is 120

-n, --nomap

Just retrieve the capabilities document, and do not generate a map request.

-o, --output <filename>

Output results to a CSV file.

-d, --dump

Dump the generated images to a file.

-b, --background <threads>

Create all the connections in the background at the same time, rather than processing the URLs one by one. Including the <threads> value will specify how may tasks to do at once, if a value for <threads> is not set then all tasks will be performed at once, if this option isn't included at all then each task will be performed one after the other.

-U, --username <username>

Username to connect with, and must be supplied if the password is set.

-P, --password <password>

Password to connect with, and must be supplied if username is set.

-q, --quiet

Do not output results to the console.

-h, --help

Show this help and quit.

-V, --version

Print the version of the WMS Tester and exit.

--ignorescalesDon't make use of the scale ranges reported by the WMS service to adjust the extents of the generated map images.
--formatSet the format of the image to generate, the default is image/jpeg.

If neither -l or -e is set then the area to draw will be calculated based on the extent of the layer, but it will be adjusted if a maximum scale range has been applied to the layer, or -x is set, unless --ignorescales is specified.
