Detailed Description

Storage and management of actions associated with a layer.

Actions can trigger custom code or applications to be executed based on attributes of a given feature.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ QgsActionManager()

QgsActionManager::QgsActionManager ( QgsVectorLayer layer)
inline

Constructor.

Definition at line 58 of file qgsactionmanager.h.

Member Function Documentation

◆ action()

QgsAction QgsActionManager::action ( QUuid  id)

Gets an action by its id.

Since
QGIS 3.0

Definition at line 271 of file qgsactionmanager.cpp.

◆ actions()

QList< QgsAction > QgsActionManager::actions ( const QString &  actionScope = QString()) const

Returns a list of actions that are available in the given action scope.

If no action scope is provided, all actions will be returned.

Since
QGIS 3.0

Definition at line 172 of file qgsactionmanager.cpp.

◆ addAction() [1/3]

void QgsActionManager::addAction ( const QgsAction action)

Add a new action to this list.

Definition at line 60 of file qgsactionmanager.cpp.

◆ addAction() [2/3]

QUuid QgsActionManager::addAction ( QgsAction::ActionType  type,
const QString &  name,
const QString &  command,
bool  capture = false 
)

Add an action with the given name and action details.

Will happily have duplicate names and actions. If capture is true, when running the action using doAction(), any stdout from the process will be captured and displayed in a dialog box.

Definition at line 46 of file qgsactionmanager.cpp.

◆ addAction() [3/3]

QUuid QgsActionManager::addAction ( QgsAction::ActionType  type,
const QString &  name,
const QString &  command,
const QString &  icon,
bool  capture = false 
)

Add an action with the given name and action details.

Will happily have duplicate names and actions. If capture is true, when running the action using doAction(), any stdout from the process will be captured and displayed in a dialog box.

Definition at line 53 of file qgsactionmanager.cpp.

◆ clearActions()

void QgsActionManager::clearActions ( )

Removes all actions.

Definition at line 160 of file qgsactionmanager.cpp.

◆ defaultAction()

QgsAction QgsActionManager::defaultAction ( const QString &  actionScope)

Each scope can have a default action.

This will be saved in the project file.

Since
QGIS 3.0

Definition at line 287 of file qgsactionmanager.cpp.

◆ doAction() [1/2]

void QgsActionManager::doAction ( QUuid  actionId,
const QgsFeature feature,
const QgsExpressionContext context 
)

Does the action using the expression engine to replace any embedded expressions in the action definition.

Parameters
actionIdaction id
featurefeature to run action for
contextexpression context to evaluate expressions under

Definition at line 139 of file qgsactionmanager.cpp.

◆ doAction() [2/2]

void QgsActionManager::doAction ( QUuid  actionId,
const QgsFeature feature,
int  defaultValueIndex = 0,
const QgsExpressionContextScope scope = QgsExpressionContextScope() 
)

Does the given action.

Parameters
actionIdaction id
featurefeature to run action for
defaultValueIndexindex of the field to be used if the action has a $currfield placeholder.
scopeexpression context scope to add during expression evaluation
Note
available in Python bindings as doActionFeature

Definition at line 127 of file qgsactionmanager.cpp.

◆ layer()

QgsVectorLayer* QgsActionManager::layer ( ) const
inline

Returns the layer.

Definition at line 125 of file qgsactionmanager.h.

◆ readXml()

bool QgsActionManager::readXml ( const QDomNode &  layer_node)

Reads the actions in in XML format.

Definition at line 244 of file qgsactionmanager.cpp.

◆ removeAction()

void QgsActionManager::removeAction ( QUuid  actionId)

Remove an action by its id.

Since
QGIS 3.0

Definition at line 99 of file qgsactionmanager.cpp.

◆ setDefaultAction()

void QgsActionManager::setDefaultAction ( const QString &  actionScope,
QUuid  actionId 
)

Each scope can have a default action.

This will be saved in the project file.

Since
QGIS 3.0

Definition at line 282 of file qgsactionmanager.cpp.

◆ writeXml()

bool QgsActionManager::writeXml ( QDomNode &  layer_node) const

Writes the actions out in XML format.

Definition at line 224 of file qgsactionmanager.cpp.
