Source

The source option defines named sources that some layer types uses, typically service based sources. Most file based sources only defines its source in the layer configuration.

Each source is defined as a json object with its name as object name. This name is used by layers to reference the source.

The options that are available for a source depends on the type of layer and is described under each layer type.
