Features can be added in a number of ways through the interface. To directly add them in the map array, they must go into a specific Vector layer. Example of layer with features:
<pre>
'feature_example' => array(
'id' => 'feature_example',
'type' => 'Vector',
'name' => t('Default Vector'),
'options' => array(),
'events' => array(),
'features' => array(
'feature_1' => array(
'wkt' => 'POLYGON((1 1,5 1,5 5,1 5,1 1),(2 2, 3 2, 3 3, 2 3,2 2))',
'attributes' => array(
'name' => 'A Polygon with a hole in it',
'date' => 'December 24, 2004',
'author' => 'Santa Claus',
),
'style' => array(
'fillColor' => '#aa4400',
'fillOpacity' => '0.7',
),
),
'feature_2' => array(
'lat' => '40.123',
'lon' => '-20.123',
'attributes' => array(
'name' => 'A point',
'date' => 'December 24, 2004',
'author' => 'Rudolf',
),
'style' => array(
'externalGraphic' => 'http://openlayers.org/dev/img/marker.png',
'graphicWidth' => 21,
'graphicHeight' => 25,
'graphicXOffset' => 10,
'graphicYOffset' => 10,
),
),
),
),
</pre>
<ul>
<li><strong>features</strong>
<dl>
<dt>Values:</dt>
<dd>array</dd>
<dt>Description:</dt>
<dd>The array that is in the Vector layer. This array will have unique string keys for the actual feature array.</dd>
<dt>Example:</dt>
<dd>
<pre>
array(
'feature_1' => array( .. ),
'feature_2' => array( .. ),
)
</pre>
</dd>
</dl>
</li>
<li><strong>wkt</strong>
<dl>
<dt>Values:</dt>
<dd>string</dd>
<dt>Description:</dt>
<dd>The feature can either be defined by a WKT string or a lat, lon pair.</dd>
<dt>Example:</dt>
<dd>'POINT(12 12)'</dd>
</dl>
</li>
<li><strong>lon</strong>
<dl>
<dt>Values:</dt>
<dd>string (float)</dd>
<dt>Description:</dt>
<dd>If not using the WKT field, you can specify a point with lat and lon. This is the longitude part.</dd>
<dt>Example:</dt>
<dd>'12'</dd>
</dl>
</li>
<li><strong>lat</strong>
<dl>
<dt>Values:</dt>
<dd>string (float)</dd>
<dt>Description:</dt>
<dd>If not using the WKT field, you can specify a point with lat and lon. This is the latitude part.</dd>
<dt>Example:</dt>
<dd>'12'</dd>
</dl>
</li>
<li><strong>projection</strong>
<dl>
<dt>Values:</dt>
<dd>string (number)</dd>
<dt>Description:</dt>
<dd>The projection of the feature. This will be converted when the feature is added.</dd>
<dt>Example:</dt>
<dd>'4326'</dd>
</dl>
</li>
<li><strong>attributes</strong>
<dl>
<dt>Values:</dt>
<dd>array</dd>
<dt>Description:</dt>
<dd>Array of values to be passed along to the feature and stored with it. These can be used for Tooltips and Popups, which by default display the <em>name</em> attribute.</dd>
<dt>Example:</dt>
<dd>
<pre>
array(
'name' => t('A Polygon with a hole in it'),
'author' => t('Santa Claus'),
),
</pre>
</dd>
</dl>
</li>
<li><strong>style</strong>
<dl>
<dt>Values:</dt>
<dd>array</dd>
<dt>Description:</dt>
<dd>Array of style data for specific feature. By default, the default styles will be used. See the section on <a href="&topic:openlayers/openlayers-map-array-styles&">Styles</a> for more all the otpions.</dd>
<dt>Example:</dt>
<dd>
<pre>
array(
'fillColor' => '#AA4400',
'fillOpacity' => '0.7',
),
</pre>
</dd>
</dl>
