Hi,

I would like to change the results of a GeoJSON writer when there's no attributes that pass my transformers. For example, when I got what its like in the left picture, I got a reply from my GeoJSON writer like so : {

"type" : "FeatureCollection",

"name" : "aspvhn_Strct_sur",

"features" : [

{

"type" : "Feature",

"geometry" : {

"type" : "Point",

"coordinates" : [ -73.8119918787, 45.6095554592 ]

},

"properties" : {

"idstruct" : null,

"producteur" : "MTQ"

}

}.

But, when its like the right picture, I got nothing from the GeoJSON writer. What I want is that when I got no attribute that pass my transformers, i'll still have an answer that looks like what you see as above but with space instead of nothing at all. Thanks.

Just before your writer, insert a NoFeaturesTester. Send the OUTPUT port to the GeoJSON writer. Then send the NOINPUT feature to a Text File writer with the same name as the GeoJSON output. You may want to introduce the attribute "text_line_data" with a space first.

 


Thanks David, it seems like it worked out.


I might have another problem. What I want now is that when there's no attribute that pass my transformers, I want this in my GeoJSON writer :

[]

and nothing else. I don't know if it is possible tho. @david_r​ 

Thanks for the answer.

Simply set text_line_data to "o]" rather than a space.


I'll make another exemple for you. If aspvhn_traversier has attribute in his transformers, the GeoJSON writer will write : {

"type" : "FeatureCollection",

"name" : "aspvhn_traversier",

"features" : [

{

"type" : "Feature",

"geometry" : {

"type" : "Point",

"coordinates" : [ -69.726550367, 48.1395144222 ]

},

"properties" : {

"Traverse" : "Point_traversier",

"gaodoreclg" : "Baie-Sainte-Catherine/Tadoussac"

}

}

But, if aspvhn_municipalite has no attributes, I just want to have this :

[].

I don't want this :

{

"type" : "FeatureCollection",

"name" : "aspvhn_entraves",

"features" : []

}

I hope i'm being more clear. Once again, thanks David.
