Class: QgsSourceSelectProvider

An interface for pages shown in a QgsDataSourceManagerDialog.

Note

This is an abstract class, with methods which must be implemented by a subclass.

The following methods must be implemented: createDataSourceWidget(), icon(), providerKey(), text()

Enums

Capability

The Capability enum describes the capabilities of the source select implementation.

Abstract Methods

createDataSourceWidget

Create a new instance of QgsAbstractDataSourceWidget (or None).

icon

Creates a new instance of an QIcon for the menu item entry

providerKey

Data Provider key

text

Text for the menu item entry, it will be visible to the user so make sure it's translatable

Virtual Methods

capabilities

Returns the source select provider capabilities.

name

Source select provider name, this is useful to retrieve a particular source select in case the provider has more than one, it should be unique among all providers.

ordering

virtual capabilities(self) QgsSourceSelectProvider.Capabilities[source]

Returns the source select provider capabilities. The default implementation returns no capabilities.

Return type:

QgsSourceSelectProvider.Capabilities

abstract createDataSourceWidget(self, parent: QWidget | None = None, fl: Qt.WindowFlags | Qt.WindowType = Qt.Widget, widgetMode: QgsProviderRegistry.WidgetMode = QgsProviderRegistry.WidgetMode.Embedded) QgsAbstractDataSourceWidget | None[source]
