MapStore2 does not correctly import layers from pyCSW (GeoNode CSW) CSW Service

[afabiani]

Trying to add layers from GeoNode CSW catalog (based on PyCSW implementation by default)

e.g.: http://demo.geonode.org/catalogue/csw?outputschema=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.opengis.net%2Fcat%2Fcsw%2F2.0.2&service=CSW&version=2.0.2&request=GetCapabilities

The list of records seems to be parsed correctly (even though previews do not work and often pagination does not work correctly), but adding a Layer seems to be broken somehow. The generated WMS request does not contain LAYERS query param at all or a "null" workspace is assigned to the layer.

Most (all in the given service) of the layers do not have enough information to be added to a map.
I will fix a couple of bugs:

• do not allow adding to a map if info is missing (e.g. layer name)
• allow for some empty tags that are breaking pagination

Issued to GeoNode and created a PR

GeoNode/geonode#2721

See my analysis on the GeoNode associated issue here.

We need to make MapStore 2 more resilient to read GetRecords responses, although full interoperability is going to be difficult to achieve, given that people put information in different place.

Give a look to decat code
