as_sld function

[mkeller3]

When I go to print my sld out my filter ends up below my symbolizer. Is there any way to avoid since this violates sld styling policies? Here is my code.

mysld = sld.StyledLayerDescriptor()
nl = mysld.create_namedlayer('test')
ustyle = nl.create_userstyle()
fts = ustyle.create_featuretypestyle()
firstRule = fts.create_rule('test',sld.PolygonSymbolizer)
firstRule.create_filter('value', '>', 'T')
print mysld.as_sld(pretty_print=True)

Hello @mkeller3,

Here's the SLD that your code generates:

<sld:StyledLayerDescriptor xmlns:ogc="http://www.opengis.net/ogc" xmlns:sld="http://www.opengis.net/sld" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" version="1.0.0">
  <sld:NamedLayer>
    <sld:Name>test</sld:Name>
    <sld:UserStyle>
      <sld:FeatureTypeStyle>
        <sld:Rule>
          <sld:Title>test</sld:Title>
          <sld:PolygonSymbolizer>
            <sld:Fill>
              <sld:CssParameter name="fill">#AAAAAA</sld:CssParameter>
            </sld:Fill>
            <sld:Stroke>
              <sld:CssParameter name="stroke">#000000</sld:CssParameter>
              <sld:CssParameter name="stroke-width">1</sld:CssParameter>
            </sld:Stroke>
          </sld:PolygonSymbolizer>
          <ogc:Filter>
            <ogc:PropertyIsGreaterThan>
              <ogc:PropertyName>value</ogc:PropertyName>
              <ogc:Literal>T</ogc:Literal>
            </ogc:PropertyIsGreaterThan>
          </ogc:Filter>
        </sld:Rule>
      </sld:FeatureTypeStyle>
    </sld:UserStyle>
  </sld:NamedLayer>
</sld:StyledLayerDescriptor>

According to https://docs.geoserver.org/stable/en/user/styling/sld/reference/rules.html, both <ogc:Filter> and <sld:PolygonSymbolizer> elements are direct descendants of <Rule>, so this is conformant. Let me know if you are still running into issues with this library.
