Support for pgRouting in Leaflet Routing Machine

Leaflet Routing Machine / pgRouting

Extends Leaflet Routing Machine with support for pgRouting.

Some brief instructions follow below, but the Leaflet Routing Machine tutorial on alternative routers is recommended.

Installing

Install nodejs/iojs, clone this repository and execute:

npm install
./scripts/build.sh

Put the script after Leaflet and Leaflet Routing Machine has been loaded.

To use with for example Browserify:

npm install --save lrm-pgrouting

Setup backend environment

Setup Database environment

Setup sample database

createdb -U postgres muko
psql -U postgres -d muko -c "CREATE EXTENSION postgis;"
psql -U postgres -d muko -c "CREATE EXTENSION pgrouting;"
psql -U postgres -d muko -f data/muko_2po_4pgr.sql

Add wrapper PL/pgSQL script to the sample database

psql -U postgres -d muko -f sql/routing_via_points.sql

Setup GeoServer environment

CORS setting (Tomcat)

1. Add following lines into geoserver/WEB-INF/web.xml - <web-app> node.

<filter>
  <filter-name>CorsFilter</filter-name>
  <filter-class>org.apache.catalina.filters.CorsFilter</filter-class>
  <init-param>
    <param-name>cors.allowed.origins</param-name>
    <param-value>*</param-value>
  </init-param>
</filter>
<filter-mapping>
  <filter-name>CorsFilter</filter-name>
  <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>

See http://stackoverflow.com/questions/22363192/cors-tomcat-geoserver for more details.

2. Restart Tomcat service.

Setup sample workspace/store/layer

1. Access to http://localhost:8080/geoserver.
2. Click "Workspaces", then "Add new workspace".
3. Fill the form with:

• Name: pgrouting
• Namespace URI: http://pgrouting.org

4. Press the "Submit" button.
5. Click "Stores", then "Add new Store".
6. Choose "PostGIS" and fill the form with:

• Basic Store Info:
  • Workspace: pgrouting
  • Data Source Name: muko
• Connection Parameters:
  • host: localhost
  • port: 5432
  • database: muko
  • schema: public
  • user: postgres
  • password: ``

7. Press the "Save" button.
8. Click "Layers", then "Add a new resource".
9. Select the newly created workspace and store pair: pgrouting:muko
10. Click "Configure new SQL view...".
11. Name the view muko and fill the "SQL statements" with:

SELECT
    seq,
    gid,
    name,
    heading,
    cost,
    geom,
    distance,
    point_type AS "pointType"
FROM
    routing.viaPoints(
        '%points%',
        'muko_2po_4pgr',
        'id',
        'geom_way',
        'osm_name',
        'source',
        'target',
        'cost',
        'reverse_cost',
        4326
    )
ORDER BY seq

12. In the "SQL view parameters", click "Guess parameters from SQL", then fill with:

• Name: points
• Default value: ``
• Validation regular expression: ^[\d\.,\|]+$

13. In the "Attributes", click "Refresh", then change geom column "Type" to LineString and "SRID" to 4326.
14. Press the "Save" button.
15. In "Edit Layer" page, fill with:

• Coordinate Reference Systems:
  • Declared SRS: EPSG:4326
  • SRS handling: Force declared
• Bounding Boxes:
  • Lat/Lon Bounding Box:
    • Min X: -180
    • Min Y: -90
    • Max X: 180
    • Max Y: 90

16. Press the "Save" button.

Using

There's a single class exported by this module, L.Routing.PgRouting. It implements the IRouter interface. Use it to replace Leaflet Routing Machine's default OSRM router implementation:

var L = require('leaflet');
require('leaflet-routing-machine');
require('lrm-pgrouting'); // This will tack on the class to the L.Routing namespace

L.Routing.control({
    router: new L.Routing.PgRouting('your GeoServer WFS layer type name'),
}).addTo(map);

Note that you will need to pass an existing GeoServer WFS layer type name to the constructor.
