OGC Feature Server URL - rejects valid servers
Describe the bug
In layers/_ogc/_service.py, in the OGCCollectionClass, it checks the provided URL to ensure it has "ogcfeatureserver" in it and that it ends in a number. This invalidates a lot of servers that do work, such as the server provided by OGC itself.
In testing I have removed these assert statements (or run Python optimized with the -O flag), and was able to connect and pull data from servers that do not meet these URL requirements.
To Reproduce
from arcgis.layers import OGCFeatureService
feature_layer = OGCFeatureService("https://demo.ldproxy.net/daraa")
print(feature_layer.properties)
error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "[HIDDEN].py", line 3, in <module>
feature_layer = OGCFeatureService("https://demo.ldproxy.net/daraa")
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
File "[HIDDEN]/.venv/lib/python3.11/site-packages/arcgis/layers/_ogc/_service.py", line 227, in __init__
assert str(url).lower().endswith("ogcfeatureserver")

AssertionError
Expected behavior
It should connect to the server and be able to pull data. When run with python -O, the beginning of the output is:
{'title': 'Daraa', 'description': 'This is a test dataset used in the Open Portrayal Framework thread in the OGC Testbed-15 as well as the OGC Vector Tiles Pilot Phase 2.

Platform (please complete the following information):
- Python API Version 2.4.1
Hi, related to this (also running Python arcgis API version 2.4.1), if I run something like
from arcgis.layers import OGCCollection
feature_collection = OGCCollection(
"https://demo.ldproxy.net/daraa/collections/AeronauticCrv"
)
print(feature_collection)
I get the following error:
def __init__(self, url: str, gis: GIS = None) -> "OGCCollection":
"""Constructor"""
assert (
> str(url).lower().find("ogcfeatureserver") > -1
and os.path.basename(url).isdigit()
)
E AssertionError
If I remove the assert statements in the constructor of the OGCCollection class, the code works. Can you all also please remove these assert statements from the source code? In many OGC API servers, the collection name is often not an integer.
Modified constructor that works:
def __init__(self, url: str, gis: GIS = None) -> "OGCCollection":
"""Constructor"""
if gis is None:
gis = _env.active_gis or GIS()
self._gis = gis
self._url = url
Fixed for the next release (2.4.2)
