Detailed Description

Handles HTTP network content fetching in a background task.

Provides a simple method for fetching remote HTTP content in a QgsTask. Url redirects are automatically handled.

After constructing a QgsNetworkContentFetcherTask, callers should connect to the QgsNetworkContentFetcherTask::fetched signal. They can then safely access the network reply() from the connected slot without danger of the task being first removed by the QgsTaskManager.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ QgsNetworkContentFetcherTask() [1/2]

QgsNetworkContentFetcherTask::QgsNetworkContentFetcherTask ( const QUrl &  url,
const QString &  authcfg = QString(),
QgsTask::Flags  flags = QgsTask::CanCancel,
const QString &  description = QString() 
)

Constructor for a QgsNetworkContentFetcherTask which fetches the specified url.

Optionally, authentication configuration can be set via the authcfg argument.

Since QGIS 3.28 the optional description can be explicitly set. If not specified, a default task description will be generated.

Definition at line 24 of file qgsnetworkcontentfetchertask.cpp.

◆ QgsNetworkContentFetcherTask() [2/2]

QgsNetworkContentFetcherTask::QgsNetworkContentFetcherTask ( const QNetworkRequest &  request,
const QString &  authcfg = QString(),
QgsTask::Flags  flags = QgsTask::CanCancel,
const QString &  description = QString() 
)

Constructor for a QgsNetworkContentFetcherTask which fetches the specified network request.

Optionally, authentication configuration can be set via the authcfg argument.

Since QGIS 3.28 the optional description can be explicitly set. If not specified, a default task description will be generated.

QgsNetworkContentFetcherTask::~QgsNetworkContentFetcherTask ( )

Member Function Documentation

◆ cancel()

void QgsNetworkContentFetcherTask::cancel ( )
overridevirtual

Notifies the task that it should terminate.

Calling this is not guaranteed to immediately end the task, rather it sets the isCanceled() flag which task subclasses can check and terminate their operations at an appropriate time. Any subtasks owned by this task will also be canceled. Derived classes must ensure that the base class implementation is called from any overridden version.

See also
isCanceled()

Reimplemented from QgsTask.

Definition at line 81 of file qgsnetworkcontentfetchertask.cpp.

◆ contentAsString()

QString QgsNetworkContentFetcherTask::contentAsString ( ) const

Returns the fetched content as a string.

Warning
This should only be accessed from a slot connected directly to the QgsNetworkContentFetcherTask::fetched() signal.
Since
QGIS 3.10

Definition at line 99 of file qgsnetworkcontentfetchertask.cpp.

◆ contentDispositionFilename()

QString QgsNetworkContentFetcherTask::contentDispositionFilename ( ) const

Returns the associated filename from the reply's content disposition header, if present.

Since
QGIS 3.28

Definition at line 94 of file qgsnetworkcontentfetchertask.cpp.

◆ errorOccurred

void QgsNetworkContentFetcherTask::errorOccurred ( QNetworkReply::NetworkError  code,
const QString &  errorMsg 
)
signal

Emitted when an error with code error occurred while processing the request errorMsg is a textual description of the error.

Since
QGIS 3.22

◆ fetched

void QgsNetworkContentFetcherTask::fetched ( )
signal

Emitted when the network content has been fetched, regardless of whether the fetch was successful or not.

Users of QgsNetworkContentFetcherTask should connect to this signal, and from the associated slot they can then safely access the network reply() without danger of the task being first removed by the QgsTaskManager.

◆ reply()

QNetworkReply * QgsNetworkContentFetcherTask::reply ( )

Returns the network reply.

Ownership is not transferred.

May return nullptr if the request has not yet completed.

Warning
This should only be accessed from a slot connected directly to the QgsNetworkContentFetcherTask::fetched() signal.

Definition at line 89 of file qgsnetworkcontentfetchertask.cpp.

◆ run()

bool QgsNetworkContentFetcherTask::run ( )
overridevirtual

Performs the task's operation.

This method will be called when the task commences (ie via calling start() ), and subclasses should implement the operation they wish to perform in the background within this method.

A task must return a boolean value to indicate whether the task was completed successfully or terminated before completion.

Implements QgsTask.
