Class: QgsSvgCache

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

Bases: QgsAbstractContentCacheBase

Constructor for QgsSvgCache.

A cache for images / pictures derived from svg files. This class supports parameter replacement in svg files according to the svg params specification (http://www.w3.org/TR/2009/WD-SVGParamPrimer-20090616/). Supported are the parameters ‘fill-color’, ‘pen-color’, ‘outline-width’, ‘stroke-width’. E.g. <circle fill=”param(fill-color red)” stroke=”param(pen-color black)” stroke-width=”param(outline-width 1)”

QgsSvgCache is not usually directly created, but rather accessed through QgsApplication.svgCache()

Parameters

parent

checkReply(self, reply: QNetworkReply, path: str) → bool
Parameters
  • reply (QNetworkReply) –

  • path (str) –

Return type

bool

childEvent(self, QChildEvent)
connectNotify(self, QMetaMethod)
containsParams(self, path: str, defaultFillColor: Union[QColor, Qt.GlobalColor], defaultStrokeColor: Union[QColor, Qt.GlobalColor], blocking: bool = False) → Tuple[bool, bool, bool, float]

Tests if an svg file contains parameters for fill, stroke color, stroke width. If yes, possible default values are returned. If there are several default values in the svg file, only the first one is considered. Blocking forces to wait for loading before returning image (optional). WARNING: the blocking parameter must NEVER be True from GUI based applications (like the main QGIS application) or crashes will result. Only for use in external scripts or QGIS server.*

Parameters
  • path (str) –

Return type

Tuple[bool, bool, bool, bool, float, bool, bool, bool, bool, float, bool, bool, float]

customEvent(self, QEvent)
disconnectNotify(self, QMetaMethod)
getImageData(self, path: str, blocking: bool = False) → QByteArray

Gets the SVG content corresponding to the given path.

path may be a local file, remote (HTTP) url, or a base 64 encoded string (with a “base64:” prefix).

The class default missingContent byte array is returned if the path could not be resolved or is broken. If the path corresponds to a remote URL, then class default fetchingContent will be returned while the content is in the process of being fetched. The blocking boolean forces to wait for loading before returning result. The content is loaded in the same thread to ensure provided the remote content. WARNING: the blocking parameter must NEVER be True from GUI based applications (like the main QGIS application) or crashes will result. Only for use in external scripts or QGIS server.

Parameters
  • path (str) –

  • blocking (bool = False) –

Return type

QByteArray

isSignalConnected(self, QMetaMethod) → bool
onRemoteContentFetched(self, url: str, success: bool)

Triggered after remote content (i.e. HTTP linked content at the given url) has been fetched.

The success argument will be True if the content was successfully fetched, or False if it was not fetched successfully.

receivers(self, PYQT_SIGNAL) → int
remoteSvgFetched

Emitted when the cache has finished retrieving an SVG file from a remote url.

New in version 3.2: [signal]

Parameters

url (str) –

sender(self) → QObject
senderSignalIndex(self) → int
statusChanged

Emit a signal to be caught by qgisapp and display a msg on status bar.

Deprecated since version Deprecated: since QGIS 3.6 – no longer emitted. [signal]

Parameters

statusQString (str) –

Gets the SVG content corresponding to the given path.

path may be a local file, remote (HTTP) url, or a base 64 encoded string (with a “base64:” prefix).

The parameters size, strokeWidth for width of stroke, widthScaleFactor for width scale factor, fill for color of fill, stroke for color of stroke and fixedAspectRatio for fixed aspect ratio (optional) are needed to get the entry from cache or creates a new entry if it does not exist already.
