Class: QgsFeedback

class qgis.core.QgsFeedback(parent: QObject = None)

Bases: PyQt5.QtCore.QObject

Construct a feedback object

Base class for feedback objects to be used for cancelation of something running in a worker thread. The class may be used as is or it may be subclassed for extended functionality for a particular operation (e.g. report progress or pass some data for preview).

When cancel() is called, the internal code has two options to check for cancelation state: - if the worker thread uses an event loop (e.g. for network communication), the code can make a queued connection to canceled() signal and handle the cancelation in its slot. - if the worker thread does not use an event loop, it can poll isCanceled() method regularly to see if the operation should be canceled.

The class is meant to be created and destroyed in the main thread.

For map rendering, the object may be created in constructor of a QgsMapLayerRenderer subclass and available with QgsMapLayerRenderer.feedback() method. When a map rendering job gets canceled, the cancel() method is called on the feedback object of all layers.

New in version 3.0: Methods

cancel Tells the internal routines that the current operation should be canceled.

customEvent
disconnectNotify
isCanceled Tells whether the operation has been canceled already
isSignalConnected
progress Returns the current progress reported by the feedback object.
receivers
sender
senderSignalIndex
setProgress Sets the current progress for the feedback object.

Signals

canceled Internal routines can connect to this signal if they use event loop [signal]
progressChanged Emitted when the feedback object reports a progress change.

Attributes

cancel(self)

Tells the internal routines that the current operation should be canceled. This should be run by the main thread

isCanceled(self) → bool

Tells whether the operation has been canceled already

isSignalConnected()
progress(self) → float

Returns the current progress reported by the feedback object. Depending on how the feedback object is used progress reporting may not be supported. The returned value is in percentage and ranges from 0-100.
