Using Expression Functions

Where are Expression Functions used?

  • Any place where expressions are allowed, e.g. in Attribute Table as Select-Filter, Label-Properties, in Field Calculator when creating/updatin fields.
  • Processing => Refactor fields

How to use:

Possible examples:

  1. Function doing something "local".
  2. Function reading from other field(s).
  3. Functions aka "Singleton" like system environment variables (usage "env('USERNAME')") layer properties or number sequence (spcial Plugin needed?).
  4. Function for remote webservice: geocoding (reading from the internet).
  5. Function reading from other layers (outlook, rather candidate for a plugin).

Writing Expression Functions

How to install and share an Expression Function?

  • Save and (Re-)Load in "Function Edtior" (saves to "%USERHOME%.qgis2\python\expressions" (where %USERHOME% under Windows is e.g. "C:\Users\sfkeller\").
  • Add Fn. to qgis2/python/startup.py
  • Add Fn. to the "Expresion Plus Plugin"
  • Add Fn. to any (own and loaded) QGIS plugin

Debugging:

  • use "print"
  • use pdb (see QGIS docs and giswiki)
  • (use Remote Debug Plugin)
