Detailed Description

This is the base class for vector data providers.

Member Function Documentation

◆ addAttributes()

bool QgsVectorDataProvider::addAttributes ( const QList< QgsField > &  attributes)
virtual

Adds new attributes to the provider.

Returns true in case of success and false in case of failure. If attributes are added using this method then QgsVectorLayer::updateFields() must be called manually to ensure that the layer's field are correctly reported.

Definition at line 162 of file qgsvectordataprovider.cpp.

◆ addFeatures()

bool QgsVectorDataProvider::addFeatures ( QgsFeatureList features,
QgsFeatureSink::Flags  flags = QgsFeatureSink::Flags() 
)
overridevirtual

Adds a list of features to the sink.

Feature addition behavior is controlled by the specified flags.

See also
addFeature()
Returns
true in case of success and false in case of failure

Implements QgsFeatureSink.

Definition at line 122 of file qgsvectordataprovider.cpp.

aggregateaggregate to calculate
indexthe index of the attribute to calculate aggregate over
parametersparameters controlling aggregate calculation
contextexpression context for filter
okwill be set to true if calculation was successfully performed by the data provider
fidslist of fids to filter, otherwise will use all fids

◆ capabilitiesString()

QString QgsVectorDataProvider::capabilitiesString ( ) const

Returns the above in friendly format.

Definition at line 323 of file qgsvectordataprovider.cpp.

◆ changeAttributeValues()

bool QgsVectorDataProvider::changeAttributeValues ( const QgsChangedAttributesMap attr_map)

Parameters
attr_mapa map containing changed attributes
Returns
true in case of success and false in case of failure

Definition at line 186 of file qgsvectordataprovider.cpp.

◆ changeFeatures()

bool QgsVectorDataProvider::changeFeatures ( const QgsChangedAttributesMap attr_map,

Returns
true in case of success and false in case of failure

◆ createLabeling()

QgsAbstractVectorLayerLabeling * QgsVectorDataProvider::createLabeling ( const QVariantMap &  configuration = QVariantMap()) const
virtual

Creates labeling settings, using provider backend specific information.

The configuration map can be used to pass provider-specific configuration maps to the provider to allow customization of the returned labeling object. Support and format of configuration varies by provider.

When called with an empty configuration map the provider's default labeling settings will be returned.

This method returns a new labeling settings and the caller takes ownership of the returned object.

Only providers which report the CreateLabeling capability will return labeling settings. Other providers will return nullptr.

◆ createRenderer()

QgsFeatureRenderer * QgsVectorDataProvider::createRenderer ( const QVariantMap &  configuration = QVariantMap()) const
virtual

Creates a new vector layer feature renderer, using provider backend specific information.

When called with an empty configuration map the provider's default renderer will be returned.

This method returns a new renderer and the caller takes ownership of the returned object.

◆ createSpatialIndex()

◆ dataComment()

Definition at line 115 of file qgsvectordataprovider.cpp.

◆ defaultValue()

QVariant QgsVectorDataProvider::defaultValue ( int  fieldIndex) const
virtual

Returns any literal default values which are present at the provider for a specified field index.

Important - this should ONLY be called when creating an attribute to insert directly into the database. Do not call this method for non-feature creation or modification, e.g., when validating an attribute or to compare it against an existing value, as calling it can cause changes to the underlying data source (e.g., Postgres provider where the default value is calculated as a result of a sequence). It is recommended that you instead use the methods in QgsVectorLayerUtils such as QgsVectorLayerUtils::createFeature() so that default value handling and validation is automatically carried out.

overridepure virtual

Returns
number of features

Implements QgsFeatureSource.

◆ featureSource()

virtual QgsAbstractFeatureSource* QgsVectorDataProvider::featureSource ( ) const
pure virtual

Returns feature source object that can be used for querying provider's data.

The returned feature source is independent from provider - any changes to provider's state (e.g. change of subset string) will not be reflected in the feature source, therefore it can be safely used for processing in background without having to care about possible changes within provider that may happen concurrently. Also, even in the case of provider being deleted, any feature source obtained from the provider will be kept alive and working (they are independent and owned by the caller).

Sometimes there are cases when some data needs to be shared between vector data provider and its feature source. In such cases, the implementation must ensure that the data is not susceptible to run condition. For example, if it is possible that both feature source and provider may need reading/writing to some shared data at the same time, some synchronization mechanisms must be used (e.g. mutexes) to prevent data corruption.

Returns
new instance of QgsAbstractFeatureSource (caller is responsible for deleting it)
