How to
Add the read property node to the canvas
Connect in a feature or object
Identify the property to read
The property name will be formatted with a leading prefix to identify its nested location in the object.
For instance:
To read the Levels from this object, type
properties.levels
Using the Reader node can assist in determining nested location of properties.
Each
{ }(curly brackets) indicates a nesting level. In this example,Levelsis inside theproperties { }
As a further example:
If you wanted to read the geometry type, you would put
geometry.typein the read properties input
The output is the value stored in that property
