qgis_removeduplicatesbyattribute: QGIS algorithm - Delete duplicates by attribute

In JanCaha/r_package_qgis: An extension of package "qgisprocess" providing direct R functions for QGIS functions

QGIS algorithm - Delete duplicates by attribute

Description

QGIS Algorithm provided by QGIS (native c++) Delete duplicates by attribute (native:removeduplicatesbyattribute). Removes duplicate rows by a field value (or multiple field values). Removes duplicate rows by a field value (or multiple field values). The first matching row will be retained, and duplicates will be discarded. Optionally, these duplicate records can be saved to a separate output for analysis.

Usage

qgis_removeduplicatesbyattribute(
  INPUT = qgisprocess:::qgis_default_value(),
  FIELDS = qgisprocess:::qgis_default_value(),
  OUTPUT = qgisprocess:::qgis_default_value(),
  DUPLICATES = 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.
FIELDS	field - Field to match duplicates by. The name of an existing field. ; delimited list of existing field names.
OUTPUT	sink - Filtered (no duplicates). Path for new vector layer.
DUPLICATES	sink - Filtered (duplicates). 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.

Outputs description

• DUPLICATES - outputVector - Filtered (duplicates)

• DUPLICATE_COUNT - outputNumber - Count of discarded duplicate records

• OUTPUT - outputVector - Filtered (no duplicates)

• RETAINED_COUNT - outputNumber - Count of retained records
