I want to create vector layer on Geoserver and serve it to Cesium sandcastle application so that I can apply custom styles on entities from vector layer. If someone has an experience with creating vector layers on Geoserver and serving them to Cesium it would be most helpful.
I set up Geoserver and Cesium. I created workspace, store and layer on Geoserver.
All set up but somehow I'm missing this connection point between Geoserver and Cesium.
The questions are:
1. How to load layer from Geoserver to Cesium:
If it's even possible to do this, which method should I use? GeoJsonDataSource.load takes a layer from SampleData folder, but can I provide it an URL of my Geoserver layer (something like http://localhost:8080/geoserver/workspace:layer)?
2. Vector layer data format:
I've seen topics concerning this, but haven't found detailed explanation on how to do this exactly; someone mentioned that you can't create GeoJson layer on Geoserver but you can get GeoJson as an output? What does 'output' mean? I don't have much experience with Geoserver.
I need to do this because I want to make Cesium webGIS application which shows objects such as buildings, roads, infrastructure etc. as a part of larger webGIS solution, with all data stored on company's server.
The reason for GeoJson is because I have experience with styling GeoJson entities.
I'm using:
Cesium 1.39
Windows 7 64bit
Chrome browser
Geoserver not locally installed but on company's server

thanks for reply!
I found a plugin for WFS developed by Sushrut Shivaswamy --> https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/cesium-dev/Jkga8_8tPWA
And Sushrut was very kind and helpful, but I still didn't manage to implement it. I assume it's because of my lack of knowledge in programming. Can you help me with this or do you know if someone from community used this plugin before so I can see an example which can help me to implement this plugin?
I'm getting the "Uncaught TypeError: Cesium.WebFeatureServiceImageryProvider is not a constructor (on line 4)"
Thank you,
Paula

I am facing the same issue as what Paula is facing. Is there any workaround for this issue?
Or , is there any other way to add WFS layer to Cesium map that you can share with us?! That will be of great help, thank you.
Thanks,
Prashanth
