Class: QgsProcessingRegistry

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

Bases: PyQt5.QtCore.QObject

Constructor for QgsProcessingRegistry.

Registry for various processing components, including providers, algorithms and various parameters and outputs.

QgsProcessingRegistry is not usually directly created, but rather accessed through QgsApplication.processingRegistry()

New in version 3.0.

Parameters

parent

addParameterType(self, type: QgsProcessingParameterType) → bool

Register a new parameter type for processing. Ownership is transferred to the registry. Will emit parameterTypeAdded.

New in version 3.2.

Parameters

type (QgsProcessingParameterType) –

Return type

bool

addProvider(self, provider: QgsProcessingProvider) → bool

Add a processing provider to the registry. Ownership of the provider is transferred to the registry, and the provider’s parent will be set to the registry. Returns false if the provider could not be added (eg if a provider with a duplicate ID already exists in the registry). Adding a provider to the registry automatically triggers the providers QgsProcessingProvider.load() method to populate the provider with algorithms.

Parameters

provider (QgsProcessingProvider) –

Return type

bool

algorithmById(self, id: str) → QgsProcessingAlgorithm

Finds an algorithm by its ID. If no matching algorithm is found, a None is returned.

algorithms()

Parameters

id (str) –

Return type

QgsProcessingAlgorithm

algorithms(self) → List[QgsProcessingAlgorithm]

Returns a list of all available algorithms from registered providers.

algorithmById()

Return type

List[QgsProcessingAlgorithm]

childEvent()
connectNotify()
createAlgorithmById(self, id: str, configuration: Dict[str, Any] = {}) → QgsProcessingAlgorithm

Creates a new instance of an algorithm by its ID. If no matching algorithm is found, a None is returned. Callers take responsibility for deleting the returned object.

The configuration argument allows passing of a map of configuration settings to the algorithm, allowing it to dynamically adjust its initialized parameters and outputs according to this configuration. This is generally used only for algorithms in a model, allowing them to adjust their behavior at run time according to some user configuration.

parameterType(self, id: str) → QgsProcessingParameterType

Returns the parameter type registered for id.

New in version 3.2.

Parameters

id (str) –

Return type

QgsProcessingParameterType

parameterTypeAdded

Emitted when a new parameter type has been added to the registry.

New in version 3.2: [signal]

parameterTypeRemoved

Emitted when a parameter type has been removed from the registry and is about to be deleted.

New in version 3.2: [signal]

parameterTypes(self) → object

Returns a list with all known parameter types.

New in version 3.2.

Return type

object

providerAdded

Emitted when a provider has been added to the registry. [signal]

providerById(self, id: str) → QgsProcessingProvider

Returns a matching provider by provider ID.

Parameters

id (str) –

Return type

QgsProcessingProvider

providerRemoved

Emitted when a provider is removed from the registry [signal]

providers(self) → object

Gets list of available providers.

Return type

object

receivers()
removeParameterType(self, type: QgsProcessingParameterType)

Unregister a custom parameter type from processing. The type will be deleted. Will emit parameterTypeRemoved.

New in version 3.2.

Parameters

type (QgsProcessingParameterType) –

removeProvider(self, provider: QgsProcessingProvider) → bool

Removes a provider implementation from the registry (the provider object is deleted). Returns false if the provider could not be removed (eg provider does not exist in the registry).

See also

addProvider()

removeProvider(self, providerId: str) -> bool Removes a provider implementation from the registry (the provider object is deleted). Returns false if the provider could not be removed (eg provider does not exist in the registry).
