class QgsSpatialIndex
{
%Docstring

A spatial index for QgsFeature objects.

QgsSpatialIndex objects are implicitly shared and can be inexpensively copied.

.. note::

   While the underlying libspatialindex is not thread safe on some platforms, the QgsSpatialIndex
   class implements its own locks and accordingly, a single QgsSpatialIndex object can safely
   be used across multiple threads.
%End

%TypeHeaderCode
#include "qgsspatialindex.h"
%End
  public:


    QgsSpatialIndex();
%Docstring
Constructor for QgsSpatialIndex. Creates an empty R-tree index.
%End

    explicit QgsSpatialIndex( const QgsFeatureIterator &fi, QgsFeedback *feedback = 0 );
%Docstring
Constructor - creates R-tree and bulk loads it with features from the iterator.
This is much faster approach than creating an empty index and then inserting features one by one.

The optional ``feedback`` object can be used to allow cancelation of bulk feature loading. Ownership
of ``feedback`` is not transferred, and callers must take care that the lifetime of feedback exceeds
that of the spatial index construction.

.. versionadded:: 2.8
%End

    explicit QgsSpatialIndex( const QgsFeatureSource &source, QgsFeedback *feedback = 0 );
%Docstring
Constructor - creates R-tree and bulk loads it with features from the source.
This is much faster approach than creating an empty index and then inserting features one by one.

The optional ``feedback`` object can be used to allow cancelation of bulk feature loading. Ownership
of ``feedback`` is not transferred, and callers must take care that the lifetime of feedback exceeds
that of the spatial index construction.

.. versionadded:: 3.0
%End

    QgsSpatialIndex( const QgsSpatialIndex &other );
%Docstring
Copy constructor
%End

    ~QgsSpatialIndex();



    bool insertFeature( const QgsFeature &feature );
%Docstring
Adds a ``feature`` to the index.
%End

    bool insertFeature( QgsFeatureId id, const QgsRectangle &bounds );
%Docstring
Add a feature ``id`` to the index with a specified bounding box.

:return: true if feature was successfully added to index.

.. versionadded:: 3.0
%End

    bool deleteFeature( const QgsFeature &feature );
%Docstring
Removes a ``feature`` from the index.
%End



    QList<QgsFeatureId> intersects( const QgsRectangle &rectangle ) const;
%Docstring
Returns a list of features with a bounding box which intersects the specified ``rectangle``.

.. note::

   The intersection test is performed based on the feature bounding boxes only, so for non-point
   geometry features it is necessary to manually test the returned features for exact geometry intersection
   when required.
%End

    QList<QgsFeatureId> nearestNeighbor( const QgsPointXY &point, int neighbors ) const;
%Docstring
Returns nearest neighbors to a ``point``. The number of neighbours returned is specified
by the ``neighbours`` argument.

.. note::

   The nearest neighbour test is performed based on the feature bounding boxes only, so for non-point
   geometry features this method is not guaranteed to return the actual closest neighbours.
%End


    int  refs() const;
%Docstring
get reference count - just for debugging!
