The QgsDefaultValue class provides a container for managing client side default values for fields.
A QgsDefaultValue consists of an expression string that will be evaluated on the client when a defeault field value needs to be generated.
Usual values for such an expression are
now()
for a timestamp for a record@some_variable
to insert a project or application level variable like the username of the one digitizing a feature$length
to insert a derived attribute of a geometryQgsDefaultValue also has a applyOnUpdate
flag which will indicate that a default value should also be applied when a feature is updated. If this is not set, the default value will only be used when a feature is created.
