Detailed Description

Represents a raster layer.

A QgsRasterLayer is instantiated by specifying the name of a data provider, such as "gdal" or "wms", and a url defining the specific data set to connect to. The raster layer constructor in turn instantiates a QgsRasterDataProvider subclass corresponding to the provider type, and passes it the url. The data provider connects to the data source.

Sample usage of the QgsRasterLayer class:

my_raster_layer = QgsRasterLayer("/path/to/file.tif", "my layer")

QgsRasterLayer

Represents a raster layer.

Returns: true, when setting the subset string was successful, false otherwise

Reimplemented from QgsMapLayer.

Definition at line 2006 of file qgsrasterlayer.cpp.

◆ subsetString()

QString QgsRasterLayer::subsetString ( ) const

virtual

Returns the string (typically sql) used to define a subset of the layer.

Since: QGIS 3.12

Definition at line 1546 of file qgsrasterlayer.cpp.

◆ subsetStringChanged

void QgsRasterLayer::subsetStringChanged ( )

signal

Emitted when the layer's subset string has changed.

Since: QGIS 3.12

◆ temporalProperties()

QgsMapLayerTemporalProperties * QgsRasterLayer::temporalProperties ( )

overridevirtual

Returns the layer's temporal properties.

This may be nullptr, depending on the layer type.

Since: QGIS 3.14

Reimplemented from QgsMapLayer.

Definition at line 1323 of file qgsrasterlayer.cpp.

◆ timestamp()

QDateTime QgsRasterLayer::timestamp ( ) const

overridevirtual

Time stamp of data source in the moment when data/metadata were loaded by provider.

Reimplemented from QgsMapLayer.

Definition at line 1710 of file qgsrasterlayer.cpp.

◆ width()

int QgsRasterLayer::width ( ) const

Returns the width of the (unclipped) raster.

See also: height()

Definition at line 2554 of file qgsrasterlayer.cpp.

◆ writeSld()

bool QgsRasterLayer::writeSld	(	QDomNode &	node,
		QDomDocument &	doc,
		QString &	errorMessage,
		const QVariantMap &	props = `QVariantMap()`
	)		const

Writes the symbology of the layer into the document provided in SLD 1.0.0 format.

Parameters

node	the node that will have the style element added to it.
doc	the document that will have the QDomNode added.
errorMessage	reference to string that will be updated with any error messages
props	a open ended set of properties that can drive/inform the SLD encoding

Returns: true in case of success

Since: QGIS 3.6

Definition at line 1732 of file qgsrasterlayer.cpp.

◆ writeStyle()

bool QgsRasterLayer::writeStyle	(	QDomNode &	node,
		QDomDocument &	doc,
		QString &	errorMessage,
		const QgsReadWriteContext &	context,
		QgsMapLayer::StyleCategories	categories = `QgsMapLayer::AllStyleCategories`
	)		const

overrideprotectedvirtual

Write just the symbology information for the layer into the document.

Parameters

node	the node that will have the style element added to it.
doc	the document that will have the QDomNode added.
errorMessage	reference to string that will be updated with any error messages
context	writing context (used for transform from absolute to relative paths)
categories	the style categories to be written

Returns: true in case of success.

Note: To be implemented in subclasses. Default implementation does nothing and returns false.; There is a confusion of terms with the GUI. This method actually writes what is known as the symbology in the application.

Reimplemented from QgsMapLayer.

Definition at line 2464 of file qgsrasterlayer.cpp.

◆ writeSymbology()

bool QgsRasterLayer::writeSymbology	(	QDomNode &	node,
		QDomDocument &	doc,
		QString &	errorMessage,
		const QgsReadWriteContext &	context,
		QgsMapLayer::StyleCategories	categories = `QgsMapLayer::AllStyleCategories`
	)		const

overrideprotectedvirtual

Write the style for the layer into the document provided.

Parameters

node	the node that will have the style element added to it.
doc	the document that will have the QDomNode added.
errorMessage	reference to string that will be updated with any error messages
context	writing context (used for transform from absolute to relative paths)
categories	the style categories to be written

Note: There is a confusion of terms with the GUI. This method actually writes what is called a style in the application.

Returns: true in case of success.

Implements QgsMapLayer.

Definition at line 2394 of file qgsrasterlayer.cpp.

◆ writeXml()

bool QgsRasterLayer::writeXml	(	QDomNode &	layer_node,
		QDomDocument &	document,
		const QgsReadWriteContext &	context
	)		const

overrideprotectedvirtual

Called by writeLayerXML(), used by children to write state specific to them to project files.

Reimplemented from QgsMapLayer.

Definition at line 2472 of file qgsrasterlayer.cpp.
