Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ QgsProcessingParameterString()

QgsProcessingParameterString::QgsProcessingParameterString ( const QString &  name,
const QString &  description = QString(),
const QVariant &  defaultValue = QVariant(),
bool  multiLine = false,
bool  optional = false 
)

Constructor for QgsProcessingParameterString.

Member Function Documentation

◆ asPythonString()

QString QgsProcessingParameterString::asPythonString ( QgsProcessing::PythonOutputType  outputType = QgsProcessing::PythonQgsProcessingAlgorithmSubclass) const
overridevirtual

Returns the parameter definition as a Python command which can be used within a Python Processing script.

The outputType argument specifies the desired output format for the Python string, i.e. the intended end use of the generated Python code.

Since
QGIS 3.6

Reimplemented from QgsProcessingParameterDefinition.

Definition at line 3166 of file qgsprocessingparameters.cpp.

◆ asScriptCode()

QString QgsProcessingParameterString::asScriptCode ( ) const
overridevirtual

Returns the parameter definition encoded in a string which can be used within a Processing script.

Reimplemented from QgsProcessingParameterDefinition.

Definition at line 3152 of file qgsprocessingparameters.cpp.

◆ clone()

QgsProcessingParameterDefinition * QgsProcessingParameterString::clone ( ) const
overridevirtual

Creates a clone of the parameter definition.

Implements QgsProcessingParameterDefinition.

Definition at line 3135 of file qgsprocessingparameters.cpp.

◆ fromScriptCode()

QgsProcessingParameterString * QgsProcessingParameterString::fromScriptCode ( const QString &  name,
const QString &  description,
bool  isOptional,
const QString &  definition 
)
static

Creates a new parameter using the definition from a script code.

Definition at line 3209 of file qgsprocessingparameters.cpp.

◆ fromVariantMap()

bool QgsProcessingParameterString::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.

Definition at line 3202 of file qgsprocessingparameters.cpp.

◆ multiLine()

bool QgsProcessingParameterString::multiLine ( ) const

Returns true if the parameter allows multiline strings.

See also
setMultiLine()

Definition at line 3185 of file qgsprocessingparameters.cpp.

◆ setMultiLine()

void QgsProcessingParameterString::setMultiLine ( bool  multiLine)

Sets whether the parameter allows multiline strings.

See also
multiLine()

Definition at line 3190 of file qgsprocessingparameters.cpp.

◆ toVariantMap()

QVariantMap QgsProcessingParameterString::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.

See also
fromVariantMap()

Reimplemented from QgsProcessingParameterDefinition.

Definition at line 3195 of file qgsprocessingparameters.cpp.

◆ type()

QString QgsProcessingParameterString::type ( ) const
inlineoverridevirtual

Unique parameter type name.

Implements QgsProcessingParameterDefinition.

Definition at line 1759 of file qgsprocessingparameters.h.

◆ typeName()

static QString QgsProcessingParameterString::typeName ( )
inlinestatic

Returns the type name for the parameter class.

Definition at line 1757 of file qgsprocessingparameters.h.

◆ valueAsPythonString()

QString QgsProcessingParameterString::valueAsPythonString ( const QVariant &  value,
QgsProcessingContext context 
) const
overridevirtual

Returns a string version of the parameter input value, which is suitable for use as an input parameter value when running an algorithm directly from a Python command.

Reimplemented from QgsProcessingParameterDefinition.
