SQL2GeoJSON API Server

NodeJS API server for serving GeoJSON from Postgres or MySQL spatial tables.

Example Deployment on Heroku

Quick Start

Configuration

You must have NodeJS installed on your system.

You should ideally have PostgreSQL v9.4+ or MySQL v5.7+ as the queries used use certain functions such as jsonb_build_object() and jsonb_agg() for Postgres and JSON_OBJECT() and JSON_ARRAYAGG() for MySQL.

Running the app

Clone this repository and execute run.bat.

run.bat

# you will be prompted for the connection details
# add ?ssl=true to the DB Nameif your db server
# requires SSL

> npm start

Server listening on port 5000 # port can be changed on line 9 of server.js

For a working example, import the inscluded ESRI shapefiles into your geodatabase.

Note: Postgres uses geom as the geometry column while MySQL seems to use shape column for the same. If you have your spatial data on geom in a MySQL database, do the following edit in server.js

// line 308 and 317 of server.js
    ...
    // change shape to your spatial column (eg geom)
    'geometry', ST_AsGeoJSON(shape),
    ...
