wmsBrowserLight plugin allows you to add WMS layers to your map using the ogcLayerLoader plugin. Main difference between the wmsBrowerLight and the wmsBroser plugin is the managment of the server list. The plugins manage WMS servers compatible with version 1.1.1 of the OGC WMS spec.. Using the wmsBrowerLight plugin you have three ways to add specify the server end point (url).

To activate the plugin, load ogcLayerLoader from both CartoClient and CartoServer configuration files and wmsBrowserLight plugins from CartoClient configuration files: client_conf/client.ini and server_conf/"mapId"/"mapId".ini. For instance:

loadPlugins = mapOverlay, ogcLayerLoader, wmsBrowserLight
        

To do so, in client_conf/wmsBrowserLight.ini, set the following parameters in the ini file of the plugin.

        catalogtype = ini
        
        servers.0.label = Sandre / Ouvrage
        servers.0.url = http://services.sandre.eaufrance.fr/geo/ouvrage

        servers.1.label = Données administratives et routières en France (Geosignal)
        servers.1.url = http://www.geosignal.org/cgi-bin/wmsmap
    

In order to use this type of connection the name of the GeoNetwork node has to be known. Optionnaly, the plugin will first logged into the node if user and password are specified. To do so, in client_conf/wmsBrowserLight.ini, set the following parameters in the ini file of the plugin.

        catalogtype = gn
        gn = http://sandre.eaufrance.fr/geonetwork
        ; unset gnuser and gnpassword if no login has to be made
        gnuser = cartoweb
        gnpassword = cartoweb
        gnlang = en
        ; gnQuery is how CartoWeb could get the list of services in the node
        gnQuery = "category=Services"
    

For the time being, there is no way to query GeoNetwork for services in a consistent manner using the ISO 19115 information. It should be possible to get this information from the tag ScopeCd of the DataQuality section. But this is not a searchable criteria in version 2.0.2. On tip is to create on the GeoNetwork node a category set to "services" and then used this categrory to get the list of server to propose to the end user.
