Class: QgsMeshDatasetGroupMetadata¶

A collection of dataset group metadata such as whether the data is vector or scalar, name.

Note

The API is considered EXPERIMENTAL and can be changed without a notice

Added in version 3.4.

Methods

`dataType`	Returns whether dataset group data is defined on vertices or faces or volumes
`extraOptions`	Returns extra metadata options, for example description
`isScalar`	Returns whether dataset group has scalar data
`isTemporal`	Returns whether the dataset group is temporal (contains time-related dataset)
`isVector`	Returns whether dataset group has vector data
`maximum`	Returns maximum scalar value/vector magnitude present for whole dataset group
`maximumVerticalLevelsCount`	Returns maximum number of vertical levels for 3d stacked meshes
`minimum`	Returns minimum scalar value/vector magnitude present for whole dataset group
`name`	Returns name of the dataset group
`parentQuantityName`	Returns the name of the dataset's parent quantity, if available.
`referenceTime`	Returns the reference time
`uri`	Returns the uri of the source

class qgis.core.QgsMeshDatasetGroupMetadata[source]¶

Bases: object

__init__(): Constructs an empty metadata object

__init__(name: str | None, uri: str | None, isScalar: bool, dataType: QgsMeshDatasetGroupMetadata.DataType, minimum: float, maximum: float, maximumVerticalLevels: int, referenceTime: QDateTime | datetime.datetime, isTemporal: bool, extraOptions: Dict[str | None, str | None])

Constructs a valid metadata object

Parameters:

name (Optional[str]) – name of the dataset group
isScalar (bool) – dataset contains scalar data, specifically the y-value of QgsMeshDatasetValue is NaN
dataType (QgsMeshDatasetGroupMetadata.DataType) – where the data are defined on (vertices, faces or volumes)
minimum (float) – minimum value (magnitude for vectors) present among all group’s dataset values
maximum (float) – maximum value (magnitude for vectors) present among all group’s dataset values
maximumVerticalLevels (int) – maximum number of vertical levels for 3d stacked meshes, 0 for 2d meshes
referenceTime (Union[QDateTime, datetime.datetime]) – reference time of the dataset group
isTemporal (bool) – weither the dataset group is temporal (contains time-related dataset)
extraOptions (Dict[Optional[str], Optional[str]]) – dataset’s extra options stored by the provider. Usually contains the name, time value, time units, data file vendor, …
uri (Optional[str]) – The uri of the dataset

__init__(a0: QgsMeshDatasetGroupMetadata)

Parameters:: a0 (QgsMeshDatasetGroupMetadata)

DataOnEdges = 3¶

DataOnFaces = 0¶

class DataType¶: Bases: int

dataType(self) → QgsMeshDatasetGroupMetadata.DataType[source]¶

Returns whether dataset group data is defined on vertices or faces or volumes

Added in version 3.12.

Return type:: QgsMeshDatasetGroupMetadata.DataType

extraOptions(self) → Dict[str, str]¶

Returns extra metadata options, for example description

Return type:: Dict[str, str]

isScalar(self) → bool[source]¶

Returns whether dataset group has scalar data

Return type:: bool

isTemporal(self) → bool[source]¶

Returns whether the dataset group is temporal (contains time-related dataset)

Return type:: bool

isVector(self) → bool[source]¶

Returns whether dataset group has vector data

Return type:: bool

maximum(self) → float[source]¶

Returns maximum scalar value/vector magnitude present for whole dataset group

Return type:: float

maximumVerticalLevelsCount(self) → int[source]¶

Returns maximum number of vertical levels for 3d stacked meshes

Added in version 3.12.

Return type:: int

minimum(self) → float[source]¶

Returns minimum scalar value/vector magnitude present for whole dataset group

Return type:: float

name(self) → str[source]¶

Returns name of the dataset group

Return type:: str

parentQuantityName(self) → str[source]¶

Returns the name of the dataset’s parent quantity, if available.

The quantity can be used to collect dataset groups which represent a single quantity but at different values (e.g. groups which represent different elevations).

Added in version 3.38.

Return type:: str

referenceTime(self) → QDateTime[source]¶

Returns the reference time

Added in version 3.12.

Return type:: QDateTime

uri(self) → str[source]¶

Returns the uri of the source

Added in version 3.16.

Return type:: str
