Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ QgsExpressionTreeView()

QgsExpressionTreeView::QgsExpressionTreeView ( QWidget *  parent = nullptr)

Constructor.

Definition at line 107 of file qgsexpressiontreeview.cpp.

Member Function Documentation

◆ currentExpressionItemChanged

void QgsExpressionTreeView::currentExpressionItemChanged ( QgsExpressionItem item)
signal

Emitter when the current expression item changed.

◆ currentItem()

QgsExpressionItem * QgsExpressionTreeView::currentItem ( ) const

Returns the current item or a nullptr.

Definition at line 170 of file qgsexpressiontreeview.cpp.

◆ exportUserExpressions()

QJsonDocument QgsExpressionTreeView::exportUserExpressions ( )

Create the expressions JSON document storing all the user expressions to be exported.

Returns
the created expressions JSON file

Definition at line 561 of file qgsexpressiontreeview.cpp.

◆ expressionContext()

QgsExpressionContext QgsExpressionTreeView::expressionContext ( ) const
inline

Returns the expression context for the widget.

The context is used for the expression preview result and for populating the list of available functions and variables.

See also
setExpressionContext

Definition at line 185 of file qgsexpressiontreeview.h.

◆ expressionItemDoubleClicked

void QgsExpressionTreeView::expressionItemDoubleClicked ( const QString &  text)
signal

Emitted when a expression item is double clicked.

◆ findExpressions()

const QList< QgsExpressionItem * > QgsExpressionTreeView::findExpressions ( const QString &  label)

Returns the list of expression items matching a label.

Definition at line 745 of file qgsexpressiontreeview.cpp.

◆ loadExpressionsFromJson()

void QgsExpressionTreeView::loadExpressionsFromJson ( const QJsonDocument &  expressionsDocument)

Load and permanently store the expressions from the expressions JSON document.

Parameters
expressionsDocumentthe parsed expressions JSON file

Definition at line 603 of file qgsexpressiontreeview.cpp.

◆ loadFieldNames()

void QgsExpressionTreeView::loadFieldNames ( const QgsFields fields)

This allows loading fields without specifying a layer.

Definition at line 417 of file qgsexpressiontreeview.cpp.

◆ loadRecent()

void QgsExpressionTreeView::loadRecent ( const QString &  collection = QStringLiteral( "generic" ))

Loads the recent expressions from the given collection.

By default it is loaded from the collection "generic".

Definition at line 462 of file qgsexpressiontreeview.cpp.

◆ loadUserExpressions()

void QgsExpressionTreeView::loadUserExpressions ( )

Loads the user expressions.

This is done on request since it can be very slow if there are thousands of user expressions

Definition at line 529 of file qgsexpressiontreeview.cpp.

◆ model()

QStandardItemModel * QgsExpressionTreeView::model ( )

Returns a pointer to the dialog's function item model.

This method is exposed for testing purposes only - it should not be used to modify the model

Note
will be removed in QGIS 4
Deprecated:
since QGIS 3.14

Definition at line 177 of file qgsexpressiontreeview.cpp.

◆ project()

QgsProject * QgsExpressionTreeView::project ( )

Returns the project currently associated with the widget.

See also
setProject()

Definition at line 182 of file qgsexpressiontreeview.cpp.

◆ refresh()

void QgsExpressionTreeView::refresh ( )

Refreshes the content of the tree.

Definition at line 162 of file qgsexpressiontreeview.cpp.

◆ removeFromUserExpressions()

void QgsExpressionTreeView::removeFromUserExpressions ( const QString &  label)

Removes the expression label from the user stored expressions.

Definition at line 521 of file qgsexpressiontreeview.cpp.

◆ saveToRecent()

void QgsExpressionTreeView::saveToRecent ( const QString &  expressionText,
const QString &  collection = "generic" 
)

Adds the current expression to the given collection.

By default it is saved to the collection "generic".

Definition at line 484 of file qgsexpressiontreeview.cpp.

◆ saveToUserExpressions()

void QgsExpressionTreeView::saveToUserExpressions ( const QString &  label,
const QString  expression,
const QString &  helpText 
)

Stores the user expression with given label and helpText.

Definition at line 502 of file qgsexpressiontreeview.cpp.

◆ setExpressionContext()

void QgsExpressionTreeView::setExpressionContext ( const QgsExpressionContext context)

Sets the expression context for the tree view.

The context is used to populate the list of available functions and variables.

Parameters
contextexpression context
See also
expressionContext

Definition at line 148 of file qgsexpressiontreeview.cpp.

◆ setLayer()

void QgsExpressionTreeView::setLayer ( QgsVectorLayer layer)

Sets layer in order to get the fields and values.

Definition at line 136 of file qgsexpressiontreeview.cpp.

◆ setMenuProvider()

void QgsExpressionTreeView::setMenuProvider ( QgsExpressionTreeView::MenuProvider provider)

Sets the menu provider.

This does not take ownership of the provider

Definition at line 157 of file qgsexpressiontreeview.cpp.

◆ setProject()

void QgsExpressionTreeView::setProject ( QgsProject project)

Sets the project currently associated with the widget.

This controls which layers and relations and other project-specific items are shown in the widget.

project()

Definition at line 187 of file qgsexpressiontreeview.cpp.

◆ setSearchText

void QgsExpressionTreeView::setSearchText ( const QString &  text)
slot

Sets the text to filter the expression tree.

Definition at line 194 of file qgsexpressiontreeview.cpp.

◆ userExpressionLabels()

QStringList QgsExpressionTreeView::userExpressionLabels ( ) const

Returns the user expression labels.

Definition at line 556 of file qgsexpressiontreeview.cpp.
