Previously these methods would inconsistently handle the
edit buffer, eg uniqueValues would consider changed attributes
but not added features. Now uniqueValues, minimumValue and
maximumValue all consider both added features and changed
attribute values when performing their calculation.
The most noticable effect of this fix is that the unique
values widget now correctly shows values for features which
have been added but not yet committed to the provider.
* Save more data to QML
* Virtual fields
* Map tips
* Display expression
* Read only flag
* Streamline expression context generation
Whenever an object is able to generate an expression context it
implements the method createExpressionContext() declared in
QgsExpressionContextGenerator.
This makes a cleaner API and allows using QgsFieldExpressionWidget and
QgsDataDefinedButton from python because standard OO programming
approaches are used instead of callbacks and void pointers.
* Colorize output of doc and sip tests
* Fix build
* Fix sip complaints
* Fix rebase problems
* Workaround failing bindings test
* Remove deprecated Qgis::WKBType and API cleanup
Renames QgsWKBTypes to QgsWkbTypes
Replaces usage of the enums:
* Qgis::WKBType with QgsWkbTypes::Type
* Qgis::GeometryType with QgsWkbTypes::GeometryType
Their values should be forward compatible (a fact that was already
explited up to now by casting between the types)
Renames some SSLxxx to SslXxx and URIxxx to UriXxx
* Fix build warnings and simplify type handling
* Add a fixer to rewrite imports
* The forgotten rebase conflictThe forgotten rebase conflicts
* QgsDataSourcURI > QgsDataSourceUri
* QgsWKBTypes > QgsWkbTypes
* Qgis.WKBGeom > QgsWkbTypes.Geom
* Further python fixes
* Guess what... Qgis::wkbDimensions != QgsWkbTypes::wkbDimensions
* Fix tests
* Python 3 updates
* [travis] pull request caching cannot be disabled
so at least use it in r/w mode
* Fix python3 print in plugins
Previously there was the expressionField (a field name or an expression)
mainly used for the feature list in the form view of the dual view.
On the other hand there was the displayField which could contain either
a simple field name or a complex HTML structure with embedded expressions.
And to know what it was you could compare it's content with the field names, if
a field name matched, you used it as a displayField (original purpose) and
if not... well, you could deal with HTML if you had a use for it.
The main problem is that there are two different usages for this kind of
thing
* plain text identifier (field or expression)
* pretty, rich text feature info
This commit cleans up with this. You want rich text and a lot of info:
go for mapTipTemplate.
You want a plain text string to identify features: go for
the displayExpression.
All pointer based methods have been removed.
Now we have only:
void setGeometry( const QgsGeometry& geom )
and
QgsGeometry geometry() const
Benefits include avoiding a whole lot of tricky pointer lifetime
issues, potential memory leaks, and finally closing #777, which
has survived for over 9 years!...
Impacts on PyQGIS code:
- no more need for the messy
g = QgsGeometry( feature.geometry() )
workaround, just use g = feature.geometry() instead
- IMPORTANT: you can no longer test whether a feature has geometry
using `if f.geometry():`, since QgsFeature::geometry() will
*always* return an object. Instead, use
`if not f.geometry().isEmpty():`, or preferably the new method
`if not f.hasGeometry():`
Fix#777
- rename methods with XML to Xml, CRS to Crs, WMS to Wms, ID to Id
- rename methods with SRS to Crs
- rename methods with abbreviations like "dest" to "destination"
- rename methods with abbreviations like "src" to "source"
Adds new methods overloads to QgsVectorLayer
getFeatures( expression )
getFeatures( ids )
getFeature( id )
These three methods to query features are by far the most used ones
and with this patch it is much easier to write and read code.
- add selectByRect( QgsRectangle&, SelectBehaviour) and
selectByIds( QgsFeatureIds, SelectBehaviour) for selecting
by rect and ids respectively, with options to add to selection/
remove from selection/intersect with current selection
- deprecate select( QgsRectangle ) and setSelectedFeatures in
favour of new methods
- add unit tests
Makes it simple for scripts to select by expression. The method
also accepts a parameter which dictates whether matching features
are added to an existing selection, removed from the selection
or intersected with the current selection.
The existing code from the select by expression dialog has been
moved to QgsVectorLayer, and optimised for maximum possible speed.
Also added unit tests.
This commit adds a number of different forms of aggregates to
the expression engine.
1. Aggregates within the current layer, eg sum("passengers")
Supports sub expressions (ie sum("passengers"/2) ), group by
( sum("passengers", group_by:="line_segment") ), and optional
filters ( sum("passengers", filter:= "station_class" > 3 ) )
2. Relational aggregates, which calculate an aggregate over
all matching child features from a relation, eg
relation_aggregate( 'my_relation', 'mean', "some_child_field" )
3. A summary aggregate function, for calculating aggregates
on other layers. Eg aggregate('rail_station_layer','sum',"passengers")
The summary aggregate function supports an optional filter,
making it possible to calculate things like:
aggregate('rail_stations','sum',"passengers",
intersects(@atlas_geometry, $geometry ) )
for calculating the total number of passengers for the stations
inside the current atlas feature
In all cases the calculations are cached inside the expression
context, so they only need to be calculated once for each
set of expression evaluations.

The original name was not representative for the scope of the class
and misleading at best.
The class manages actions for a given layer and it's not a single action
like the former name suggested.
There is a typedef introduced to keep it in the API until we can remove
it with QGIS 3.
The current approach of testing !vl || vl->geometryType() != NoGeometry
is not intuitive and has been the source of 2 recent bugs.
Replacing these tests with the new isSpatial() function makes it
immediately obvious what is being tested. It also allows for
non-spatial plugin layers to be correctly handled by overriding
this method.
This check tests that if a function has been declared deprecated
with either Q_DECL_DEPRECATED or has a @deprecated Doxygen note
then it MUST have both the Q_DECL_DEPRECATD and @deprecated note.
It's important that both are used, as Q_DECL_DEPRECATED allows
throwing a warning if that method is used in code, while the
@deprecated doxygen note gives an indication to devs/PyQGIS users
of why it's deprecated and what should be used instead.
Ideally we'd also test for SIP /Deprecated/ tags, but I can't
find any reliable way to do this.
