QGIS algorithm - Points to path

Description

QGIS Algorithm provided by QGIS (native c++) Points to path (native:pointstopath). This algorithm takes a point layer and connects its features creating a new line layer. An attribute or expression may be specified to define the order the points should be connected. If no order expression is specified, the feature ID is used. A natural sort can be used when sorting by a string attribute or expression (ie. place 'a9' before 'a10'). An attribute or expression can be selected to group points having the same value into the same resulting line.

Usage

qgis_pointstopath(
  INPUT = qgisprocess:::qgis_default_value(),
  CLOSE_PATH = qgisprocess:::qgis_default_value(),
  ORDER_EXPRESSION = qgisprocess:::qgis_default_value(),
  NATURAL_SORT = qgisprocess:::qgis_default_value(),
  GROUP_EXPRESSION = qgisprocess:::qgis_default_value(),
  OUTPUT = qgisprocess:::qgis_default_value(),
  OUTPUT_TEXT_DIR = 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.

CLOSE_PATH

boolean - Create closed paths. 1 for true/yes. 0 for false/no. 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.

ORDER_EXPRESSION

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

NATURAL_SORT

boolean - Sort text containing numbers naturally. 1 for true/yes. 0 for false/no. 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.

GROUP_EXPRESSION

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

OUTPUT

sink - Paths. Path for new vector layer.

OUTPUT_TEXT_DIR

folderDestination - Directory for text output. Path for an existing or new folder.

...

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.
