QGIS algorithm - Field calculator

Description

QGIS Algorithm provided by QGIS (native c++) Field calculator (native:fieldcalculator). This algorithm computes a new vector layer with the same features of the input layer, but either overwriting an existing attribute or adding an additional attribute. The values of this field are computed from each feature using an expression, based on the properties and attributes of the feature. Note that if "Field name" is an existing field in the layer then all the rest of the field settings are ignored.

Usage

qgis_fieldcalculator(
  INPUT = qgisprocess:::qgis_default_value(),
  FIELD_NAME = qgisprocess:::qgis_default_value(),
  FIELD_TYPE = qgisprocess:::qgis_default_value(),
  FIELD_LENGTH = qgisprocess:::qgis_default_value(),
  FIELD_PRECISION = qgisprocess:::qgis_default_value(),
  FORMULA = qgisprocess:::qgis_default_value(),
  OUTPUT = qgisprocess:::qgis_default_value(),
  ...,
  .complete_output = .complete_output_option(),
  .quiet = .quiet_option(),
  .messages = .message_option()
)

Arguments

INPUT

source - Input layer. Path to a vector layer.

FIELD_NAME

string - Field name. String value. field:FIELD_NAME to use a data defined value taken from the FIELD_NAME field. expression:SOME EXPRESSION to use a data defined value calculated using a custom QGIS expression.

FIELD_TYPE

enum of ⁠("Decimal (double)", "Integer (32 bit)", "Text (string)", "Date", "Time", "Date & Time", "Boolean", "Binary Object (BLOB)", "String List", "Integer List", "Decimal (double) List")⁠ - Result field type. Number of selected option, e.g. '1'. Comma separated list of options, e.g. '1,3'.

FIELD_LENGTH

number - Result field length. A numeric value. field:FIELD_NAME to use a data defined value taken from the FIELD_NAME field. expression:SOME EXPRESSION to use a data defined value calculated using a custom QGIS expression.

FIELD_PRECISION

number - Result field precision. A numeric value. field:FIELD_NAME to use a data defined value taken from the FIELD_NAME field. expression:SOME EXPRESSION to use a data defined value calculated using a custom QGIS expression.

FORMULA

expression - Formula. A valid QGIS expression string, e.g "road_name" = 'MAIN RD'.

OUTPUT

sink - Calculated. Path for new vector layer.

further parameters passed to qgisprocess::qgis_run_algorithm()

.complete_output

logical specifying if complete out of qgisprocess::qgis_run_algorithm() should be used (TRUE) or first output (most likely the main) should read (FALSE). Default value is TRUE.

.quiet

logical specifying if parameter .quiet for qgisprocess::qgis_run_algorithm() Default value is TRUE.

.messages

logical specifying if messages from qgisprocess::qgis_run_algorithm() should be printed (TRUE) or not (FALSE). Default value is FALSE.
