Class: QgsProcessingOutputLayerDefinition

class qgis.core.QgsProcessingOutputLayerDefinition

Bases: sip.wrapper

Encapsulates settings relating to a feature sink or output raster layer for a processing algorithm.

New in version 3.0.

QgsProcessingOutputLayerDefinition(sink: str = ‘’, destinationProject: QgsProject = None) Constructor for QgsProcessingOutputLayerDefinition, accepting a static sink/layer string. The destinationProject parameter can be set to a QgsProject instance in which to automatically load the resulting sink/layer after completing processing.

QgsProcessingOutputLayerDefinition(sink: QgsProperty, destinationProject: QgsProject = None) Constructor for QgsProcessingOutputLayerDefinition, accepting a QgsProperty sink/layer. The destinationProject parameter can be set to a QgsProject instance in which to automatically load the resulting sink/layer after completing processing.

Methods

loadVariant	Loads this output layer definition from a QVariantMap, wrapped in a QVariant.
remappingDefinition	Returns the output remapping definition, if useRemapping() is True.
setRemappingDefinition	Sets the remapping definition to use when adding features to the output layer.
toVariant	Saves this output layer definition to a QVariantMap, wrapped in a QVariant.
useRemapping	Returns True if the output uses a remapping definition.
