4. Catalog

The QGIS Server Catalog is a simple catalog that shows the list of QGIS projects served by the QGIS Server. It provides a user-friendly fully browsable website with basic mapping capabilities to quickly browse the datasets exposed through those QGIS projects.

The QGIS Server catalog uses the variables QGIS_SERVER_LANDING_PAGE_PROJECTS_DIRECTORIES and QGIS_SERVER_LANDING_PAGE_PROJECTS_PG_CONNECTIONS (see Environment variables)
