MapServer MapScript Modules

Much of MapServer's functionality is accessible from Java, Perl, PHP, Python, Ruby, C#, and Tcl. MapScript is not a language like JavaScript or Python, it is a loadable module that brings MapServer capabilities to your favorite high-level programming language.

MapScript Family

The MapScript family tree looks like this:


               MapServer
                   | 
                   |    
                   | 
              SWIGMapScript
                   |
   +----+-----+----+----+--+--+-----------+
   |    |     |    |    |  |  |           |
 Perl Python Ruby Java C# Tcl PHPNG ...

The SWIGMapScript modules are generated by SWIG.

SWIG MapScript

Installation instructions are located in the individual languages directories such as mapscript/perl, mapscript/python.

The main MapScript SWIG interface file is mapscript/mapscript.i. This file includes specific class interface files from mapscript/swiginc and language specific code from the language directories.

Note the v8 folder contains files for V8 MapScript Support. This is not a JavaScript version of MapScript, but provides support for the use of JavaScript in STYLEITEM and GEOTRANSFORM.

API Documentation can be found at the Shared SWIG MapScript Documentation page.

PHPNG (SWIG) MapScript

PHP support ("PHPNG") is included in the SWIG API since the MapServer 7.4.0 release. You can specify WITH_PHPNG=ON at your CMake commandline, to compile PHPNG support for MapServer.

The old native PHPMapScript module developed using the PHP C API was removed in the MapServer 8.0.0 release.
