Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ QgsProcessingParameterMultipleLayers()

QgsProcessingParameterMultipleLayers::QgsProcessingParameterMultipleLayers ( const QString &  name,
const QString &  description = QString(),
Qgis::ProcessingSourceType  layerType = Qgis::ProcessingSourceType::VectorAnyGeometry,
const QVariant &  defaultValue = QVariant(),
bool  optional = false 
)

Constructor for QgsProcessingParameterMultipleLayers.

Member Function Documentation

◆ asPythonString()

QString QgsProcessingParameterMultipleLayers::asPythonString ( QgsProcessing::PythonOutputType  outputType = QgsProcessing::PythonOutputType::PythonQgsProcessingAlgorithmSubclass) const
overridevirtual

Returns the parameter definition as a Python command which can be used within a Python Processing script.

The outputType argument specifies the desired output format for the Python string, i.e. the intended end use of the generated Python code.

Since
QGIS 3.6

Reimplemented from QgsProcessingParameterDefinition.

Definition at line 4418 of file qgsprocessingparameters.cpp.

◆ asScriptCode()

QString QgsProcessingParameterMultipleLayers::asScriptCode ( ) const
overridevirtual

Returns the parameter definition encoded in a string which can be used within a Processing script.

Reimplemented from QgsProcessingParameterDefinition.

Definition at line 4377 of file qgsprocessingparameters.cpp.

◆ checkValueIsAcceptable()

bool QgsProcessingParameterMultipleLayers::checkValueIsAcceptable ( const QVariant &  input,
QgsProcessingContext context = nullptr 
) const
overridevirtual

Checks whether the specified input value is acceptable for the parameter.

Returns true if the value can be accepted. The optional context parameter can be specified to allow a more stringent check to be performed, capable of checking for the presence of required layers and other factors within the context.

Reimplemented from QgsProcessingParameterDefinition.

Definition at line 4234 of file qgsprocessingparameters.cpp.

◆ clone()

QgsProcessingParameterDefinition * QgsProcessingParameterMultipleLayers::clone ( ) const
overridevirtual

Creates a clone of the parameter definition.

Implements QgsProcessingParameterDefinition.

Definition at line 4229 of file qgsprocessingparameters.cpp.

◆ createFileFilter()

QString QgsProcessingParameterMultipleLayers::createFileFilter ( ) const
overridevirtual

This method needs to be reimplemented in all classes which implement this interface and return a file filter.

Implements QgsFileFilterGenerator.

Definition at line 4440 of file qgsprocessingparameters.cpp.

◆ fromScriptCode()

QgsProcessingParameterMultipleLayers * QgsProcessingParameterMultipleLayers::fromScriptCode ( const QString &  name,
const QString &  description,
bool  isOptional,
const QString &  definition 
)
static

Creates a new parameter using the definition from a script code.

Definition at line 4509 of file qgsprocessingparameters.cpp.

◆ fromVariantMap()

bool QgsProcessingParameterMultipleLayers::fromVariantMap ( const QVariantMap &  map)
overridevirtual

Restores this parameter to a QVariantMap.

Subclasses should ensure that they call the base class method.

See also
toVariantMap()

Reimplemented from QgsProcessingParameterDefinition.

Definition at line 4501 of file qgsprocessingparameters.cpp.

◆ layerType()

Qgis::ProcessingSourceType QgsProcessingParameterMultipleLayers::layerType ( ) const

Returns the layer type for layers acceptable by the parameter.

See also
setLayerType()

Definition at line 4472 of file qgsprocessingparameters.cpp.

◆ minimumNumberInputs()

int QgsProcessingParameterMultipleLayers::minimumNumberInputs ( ) const

Returns the minimum number of layers required for the parameter.

If the return value is < 1 then the parameter accepts any number of layers.

See also
setMinimumNumberInputs()

Definition at line 4482 of file qgsprocessingparameters.cpp.

◆ setLayerType()

void QgsProcessingParameterMultipleLayers::setLayerType ( Qgis::ProcessingSourceType  type)

Sets the layer type for layers acceptable by the parameter.

See also
layerType()

Definition at line 4477 of file qgsprocessingparameters.cpp.

◆ setMinimumNumberInputs()

void QgsProcessingParameterMultipleLayers::setMinimumNumberInputs ( int  minimum)

Sets the minimum number of layers required for the parameter.

The minimum must be >= 1 if the parameter is not optional.

See also
minimumNumberInputs()

Definition at line 4487 of file qgsprocessingparameters.cpp.

◆ toVariantMap()

QVariantMap QgsProcessingParameterMultipleLayers::toVariantMap ( ) const
overridevirtual

Saves this parameter to a QVariantMap.

Subclasses should ensure that they call the base class method and then extend the result with additional properties.

See also
fromVariantMap()

Reimplemented from QgsProcessingParameterDefinition.

Definition at line 4493 of file qgsprocessingparameters.cpp.

◆ type()

QString QgsProcessingParameterMultipleLayers::type ( ) const
inlineoverridevirtual

Unique parameter type name.

Implements QgsProcessingParameterDefinition.

Definition at line 2162 of file qgsprocessingparameters.h.

◆ typeName()

static QString QgsProcessingParameterMultipleLayers::typeName ( )
inlinestatic

Returns the type name for the parameter class.

Definition at line 2160 of file qgsprocessingparameters.h.

◆ valueAsJsonObject()

QVariant QgsProcessingParameterMultipleLayers::valueAsJsonObject ( const QVariant &  value,
QgsProcessingContext context 
) const
overridevirtual

Returns a version of the parameter input value, which is suitable for use in a JSON object.

This method must return only simple values which can be losslessly encapsulated in a serialized JSON map. For instance, any QGIS class values (such as QgsCoordinateReferenceSystem) must be converted to a simple string or numeric value equivalent.

QGIS 3.24

Reimplemented from QgsProcessingParameterDefinition.

Definition at line 4372 of file qgsprocessingparameters.cpp.

◆ valueAsPythonString()

QString QgsProcessingParameterMultipleLayers::valueAsPythonString ( const QVariant &  value,
QgsProcessingContext context
