| [20:10:39] | <paul121[m]> | We really need a general module that allows you to just enter WMS URLs... |
| [20:12:40] | <paul121[m]> | But then, is the best user experience enabling a module or is it copy/pasting the Ireland WMS URLs? Maybe there is a middle ground? 🤔 |
| [20:23:14] | <symbioquine[m]> | Maybe both |
| [20:25:29] | <symbioquine[m]> | All of Ireland might have module(s), but there's lots of countries/municipalities with GIS data that probably won't have modules. |

| [02:57:19] | <FarmerEd[m]> | <paul121[m]> "We really need a general..." <- Simple enough for one layer like the soil survey example, I suppose multiple layers like weather could be more of a challenge especially if parameters are handled differently from different sources. Maybe easiest to dynamically add complete URL's including parameters for each layer? |

| [07:00:59] | <mstenta[m]> | What if we had a publicly maintained list of WMS URLs, perhaps hosted as a JSON file on GitHub, which was used to show a settings form in farmOS with checkboxes to enable them? |
| [07:01:24] | <mstenta[m]> | Still... enabling modules is probably the best from a UX perspective, if not a DX perspective |
| [07:01:30] | <mstenta[m]> | Maybe |
| [07:02:06] | <mstenta[m]> | Its also nice to package related featues into modules sometimea |
| [07:02:12] | <mstenta[m]> | s/sometimea/sometimes/ |
| [07:03:01] | <mstenta[m]> | Or all of the above? |
| [07:07:59] | <FarmerEd[m]> | Yes, why not all of the above? |
| [07:10:03] | <mstenta[m]> | Range of flexibility |
| [07:10:31] | <FarmerEd[m]> | serves every scenario, |
| [07:10:32] | <FarmerEd[m]> | the WMS URLS as a JSON file, I presume those on Farmier can then enable/ disable themselves? |
| [07:12:12] | <FarmerEd[m]> | I presume if that's the case, it would make your admin role easier to just keep one list to suit all clients. |
| [07:13:01] | <mstenta[m]> | Yea it could be a core/contrib module, so would work easily on Farmier |
| [07:13:18] | <mstenta[m]> | As well as a core module that lets you add raw WMS URLs |
| [07:13:34] | <mstenta[m]> | That's a lot of flexibility right there |
| [07:14:23] | <mstenta[m]> | And then if there are more specialized modules developed, those can go through the normal review process for inclusion (thats where the work is) |
| [07:14:44] | <FarmerEd[m]> | It's not unlike symbioquine plugins for Asset Link, I wonder what other modules could be served customizations like that? |
| [07:14:56] | <mstenta[m]> | > I presume if that's the case, it would make your admin role easier to just keep one list to suit all clients. |
| [07:14:56] | <mstenta[m]> | I'm thinking this could be community maintained |
| [07:23:58] | <mstenta[m]> | One thing we need with all options is to specify whether or not its a "base" layer (like aerial, satellite) or just an overlay (like weather, soil lines) |

| [11:03:42] | <mstenta[m]> | Thanks Jan Sonntag!! |
| [11:04:21] | <mstenta[m]> | Looking at you next Farmer Ed 😄 |
| [11:05:40] | <FarmerEd[m]> | farmOS as Gailge? |
| [11:06:14] | <mstenta[m]> | https://localize.drupal.org/translate/languages/ga/translate?project=farm |
| [11:06:28] | <mstenta[m]> | Only 1011 strings to go! 😆 |
| [11:07:13] | <mstenta[m]> | (Although to be fair you may be the only one in Ireland using it haha) |
| [11:07:33] | <symbioquine[m]> | (so far) |
| [11:10:48] | <FarmerEd[m]> | symbioquine[m]: I'm trying to convince others. |
| [11:13:55] | <FarmerEd[m]> | Could be translated into Irish Farmerish but that would just replace all the words with profanities. 😁 |
| [11:16:23] | <mstenta[m]> | lol |
| [11:16:51] | <mstenta[m]> | I feel like that transcends all languages |
| [11:18:17] | <symbioquine[m]> | ACTION uploaded an image: (145KiB) < https://libera.ems.host/_matrix/media/r0/download/matrix.org/sLuKkAKskPY... > |
| [11:49:14] | <FarmerEd[m]> | <mstenta[m]> "I feel like that transcends..." <- I suspect that is true. |
| [11:54:18] | <FarmerEd[m]> | There is only about 70,000 people who speak Irish daily. |
| [11:54:18] | <FarmerEd[m]> | There are 140,000 farmers though so farmOS as Gailge won't have a massive amount of potential clients. |
| [11:56:19] | <FarmerEd[m]> | Although Irish speakers would mostly be rural dwellers in small communities so a disproportionate amount may be farmers. |
| [11:58:38] | <FarmerEd[m]> | Of course I could just attempt translation for the 'craic' 😁 |
