Hi,

Thank you to everyone that’s chimed in here- it’s amazing to see the level of 
support that this program has!

I read through the comments and dug around a little bit. First, I can confirm 
that the workaround proposed by the open ticket (escaping all case sensitive 
text) still works. So as WMTS store urls, using Mapbox and MapTiler as an 
example:

  *   https://api.mapbox.com/styles/v1/<username>/<Map 
>/wmts?access_token=<token>
     *   Fails with a 401 Not Authorized
  *   https://api.mapbox.com/styles/v1/<username>/<Map 
>/wmts?%61%63%63%65%73%73%5F%74%6F%6B%65%6E=<token>
     *   Success!
  *   https://api.maptiler.com/maps/topo/WMTSCapabilities.xml?key=<token>
     *   Fails with timeout
  *   https://api.maptiler.com/maps/topo/WMTSCapabilities.xml?%6B%65%79=<token>
     *   Success!

So it means that the issue is definitely with the capitalization. I’m not sure 
how important maintaining strict compliance with the official spec is for 
adding stores- spec deviations are always bad, but GeoServer is essentially 
acting as a client for the cascading capacity, which is a different role than 
the server aspects? If it’s worth forcing some values to remain the same as the 
input, the only two services I can easily find are Mapbox and MapTiler, so 
“access_token” and “key” would be the two terms.

Alternatively, it might be worth updating the cascading documentation to alert 
users to this workaround?

Thanks again for all the help,
Alexander

I can confirm there are definitely a bunch of services out there where the REST 
keys are case sensitive. Unfortunately I can't check and see what the guilty 
software is right now.

Hi Jody,

thinking out loud, the OWS spec (that WMTS is based on) states that keys

are case insensitive.

So the Mapbox server is broken, but I see no need to uppercase the keys in

the GeoTools code,

just let them be whatever they are?



Cheers

Andrea

I am not aware of anyone working on this issue...



Having a look myself (the geotools library is used for this interaction):



AbstractRequest has the following

<https://github.com/geotools/geotools/blob/master/modules/library/main/src/main/java/org/geotools/data/ows/AbstractRequest.java#L155><https://can01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fgeotools%2Fgeotools%2Fblob%2Fmaster%2Fmodules%2Flibrary%2Fmain%2Fsrc%2Fmain%2Fjava%2Forg%2Fgeotools%2Fdata%2Fows%2FAbstractRequest.java%23L155&data=02%7C01%7Calexander.rey%40queensu.ca%7C27235a5d7a124f1caafe08d79ce28161%7Cd61ecb3b38b142d582c4efb2838b925c%7C1%7C1%7C637150368965586385&sdata=%2F%2B4sn9VX7DQ8jnE6LoVlPVhAtOW0trc02BWp1MbwPms%3D&reserved=0>

:



            String value = (String) entry.getValue();

            /*

             * Some servers do not follow the rule that parameter names

             * must be case insensitive. We will let each specification

             * implementation deal with it in their own way.

             */

            String param = processKey((String) entry.getKey());



So some allowance has been made to be case insensitive or not...



WMTSSpecification GetCapsRequest has this implemented

<https://github.com/geotools/geotools/blob/master/modules/extension/wmts/src/main/java/org/geotools/ows/wmts/WMTSSpecification.java#L132><https://can01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fgeotools%2Fgeotools%2Fblob%2Fmaster%2Fmodules%2Fextension%2Fwmts%2Fsrc%2Fmain%2Fjava%2Forg%2Fgeotools%2Fows%2Fwmts%2FWMTSSpecification.java%23L132&data=02%7C01%7Calexander.rey%40queensu.ca%7C27235a5d7a124f1caafe08d79ce28161%7Cd61ecb3b38b142d582c4efb2838b925c%7C1%7C1%7C637150368965596380&sdata=%2Ftf9Zg2I%2B9eE%2BEz7BiWLC7G3dHybndJK53VRmq%2FutXE%3D&reserved=0>

as:



        @Override

        protected String processKey(String key) {

            return WMTSSpecification.processKey(key);

        }



WMTSSepcification forces everything uppercase

<https://github.com/geotools/geotools/blob/master/modules/extension/wmts/src/main/java/org/geotools/ows/wmts/WMTSSpecification.java#L147><https://can01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fgeotools%2Fgeotools%2Fblob%2Fmaster%2Fmodules%2Fextension%2Fwmts%2Fsrc%2Fmain%2Fjava%2Forg%2Fgeotools%2Fows%2Fwmts%2FWMTSSpecification.java%23L147&data=02%7C01%7Calexander.rey%40queensu.ca%7C27235a5d7a124f1caafe08d79ce28161%7Cd61ecb3b38b142d582c4efb2838b925c%7C1%7C1%7C637150368965596380&sdata=jrkRTNQDzEJ8Qv5lV9yxjGnsqj9F8fH6%2F55wvf4or7c%3D&reserved=0>

:



    public static String processKey(String key) {

        return key.trim().toUpperCase();

    }



So a minimal change would be to WMTS GetCapsRequest above:



final Set<String> SPECIFICATION_PARAMETERS.containsKey;

{

  Set<String> official = new HashSet<String>();

  official.add("SERVICE");

  official.add("VERSION");

  official.add("REQUEST");

  ...

  SPECIFICATION_PARAMETERS = Collections. unmodifiableSet(official);

}

protected String processKey(String key) {

       String key = key.trim();

       if( SPECIFICATION_PARAMETERS.containsKey(key.toUpperCase()){

           return WMTSSpecification.processKey(key);

       }

       else {

           return key;

      }

}



Do you want to collect the official list of parameters for above code

snippet and we can try for a fix?

Hi,







I was wondering if there’s been any movement on this issues since this

was last raised. Mapbox is a really useful source of maps and provides a

WMTS interface that could be cascaded, but since GeoServer forces the key

name “access_key” to be uppercase, it fails the Mapbox api authentication.







This doesn’t seem to be a very widespread issue, but has been raised

elsewhere (

https://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/326612/auth-error-cascading-mapbox-wmts-with-geoserver<https://can01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgis.stackexchange.com%2Fquestions%2F326612%2Fauth-error-cascading-mapbox-wmts-with-geoserver&data=02%7C01%7Calexander.rey%40queensu.ca%7C27235a5d7a124f1caafe08d79ce28161%7Cd61ecb3b38b142d582c4efb2838b925c%7C1%7C1%7C637150368965606378&sdata=pFJRiYonZ%2BeslZUes3%2FDGyX24MVYfRQ0ygqSUvSmbWU%3D&reserved=0>).

It also poses an issue when authenticating using the MapTiler service.







I’m not sure how feasible a fix for this would be, but since the previous

thread indicated it was possible, I thought I would follow up.







Thanks,



Alexander
