  --service-url http://localhost:90/ogc/data

Generate from a WMS GetCapabilities file:

pymviewer from-capabilities \
  --capabilities /path/to/GetCapabilities.xml \
  --output /path/to/config.xml \
  --service-url http://localhost:90/ogc/data

Python API

from pathlib import Path
from pymviewer.qgisxmviewer import create_mviewer_config_from_wms_capabilities

create_mviewer_config_from_wms_capabilities(
    Path("data_getcapabilities.xml"),
    Path("data.xml"),
    "http://localhost:90/ogc/data",
)

Notes

• mviewer layer id values are normalized and unique.
• WMS layer names are preserved in the layers attribute.
• WMS legend URLs are encoded and can be rebased to an override service URL.
• .qgs projects are supported. .qgz archives are not supported yet.
