Detailed Description

Base class for all parameter definitions which represent file or layer destinations, e.g.

parameters which are used for the destination for layers output by an algorithm.

Since
QGIS 3.0

Definition at line 2003 of file qgsprocessingparameters.h.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

QgsProcessingDestinationParameter::QgsProcessingDestinationParameter ( const QString &  name,
const QString &  description = QString(),
const QVariant &  defaultValue = QVariant(),
bool  optional = false,
bool  createByDefault = true 
)

Constructor for QgsProcessingDestinationParameter.

If createByDefault is false and the parameter is optional, then the destination output will not be created by default.

Definition at line 4121 of file qgsprocessingparameters.cpp.

Member Function Documentation

bool QgsProcessingDestinationParameter::createByDefault ( ) const

Returns true if the destination should be created by default.

For optional parameters, a return value of false indicates that the destination should not be created by default.

See also
setCreateByDefault()

Definition at line 4156 of file qgsprocessingparameters.cpp.

virtual QString QgsProcessingDestinationParameter::defaultFileExtension ( ) const
pure virtual
bool QgsProcessingDestinationParameter::fromVariantMap ( const QVariantMap &  map)
overridevirtual

Restores this parameter to a QVariantMap.

Subclasses should ensure that they call the base class method.

See also
toVariantMap()

Reimplemented from QgsProcessingParameterDefinition.

Reimplemented in QgsProcessingParameterFileDestination, QgsProcessingParameterVectorDestination, and QgsProcessingParameterFeatureSink.

Definition at line 4136 of file qgsprocessingparameters.cpp.

QString QgsProcessingDestinationParameter::generateTemporaryDestination ( ) const
virtual

Generates a temporary destination value for this parameter.

The returned value will be a file path or QGIS data provider URI suitable for temporary storage of created layers and files.

Reimplemented in QgsProcessingParameterFeatureSink.

Definition at line 4144 of file qgsprocessingparameters.cpp.

bool QgsProcessingDestinationParameter::isDestination ( ) const
inlineoverridevirtual

Returns true if this parameter represents a file or layer destination, e.g.

parameters which are used for the destination for layers output by an algorithm will return true.

Reimplemented from QgsProcessingParameterDefinition.

Definition at line 2016 of file qgsprocessingparameters.h.

QgsProcessingProvider* QgsProcessingDestinationParameter::originalProvider ( ) const
inlineprotected

Original (source) provider which this parameter has been derived from.

In the case of destination parameters which are part of model algorithms, this will reflect the child algorithm's provider which actually generates the parameter, as opposed to the provider which this parameter belongs to (i.e. the model provider)

Since
QGIS 3.2

Definition at line 2077 of file qgsprocessingparameters.h.

void QgsProcessingDestinationParameter::setCreateByDefault ( bool  createByDefault)

Sets whether the destination should be created by default.

For optional parameters, a value of false indicates that the destination should not be created by default.

See also
createByDefault()

Definition at line 4161 of file qgsprocessingparameters.cpp.

void QgsProcessingDestinationParameter::setSupportsNonFileBasedOutput ( bool  supportsNonFileBasedOutput)
inline

Sets whether the destination parameter supports non filed-based outputs, such as memory layers or direct database outputs.

See also
supportsNonFileBasedOutput()

Definition at line 2038 of file qgsprocessingparameters.h.

bool QgsProcessingDestinationParameter::supportsNonFileBasedOutput ( ) const
inline

Returns true if the destination parameter supports non filed-based outputs, such as memory layers or direct database outputs.

See also
setSupportsNonFileBasedOutput()

Definition at line 2031 of file qgsprocessingparameters.h.

virtual QgsProcessingOutputDefinition* QgsProcessingDestinationParameter::toOutputDefinition ( ) const
pure virtual
QVariantMap QgsProcessingDestinationParameter::toVariantMap ( ) const
overridevirtual

Saves this parameter to a QVariantMap.

Subclasses should ensure that they call the base class method and then extend the result with additional properties.

fromVariantMap()

Reimplemented in QgsProcessingParameterFileDestination, QgsProcessingParameterVectorDestination, and QgsProcessingParameterFeatureSink.
