Hi, I think it´a good idea to move it to a plugin – installing I a special folder eg C:\ seem to be hard to understand…. And then setting up the providers…
It´s a bit worring when the users then are working with complicated functions. But for my students it has for some been an issue. Installing plugins are installed without issues ☺ regards Lene Fischer Associate Professor University of Copenhagen Department of Geoscience and Natural Resource Management Forest and Landscape College Nødebovej 77a 3480 Fredensborg Denmark DIR +45 35331579 MOB +45 40115084 l...@ign.ku.dk<mailto:l...@ign.ku.dk> www.ign.ku.dk<http://www.ign.ku.dk/> [cid:image001.gif@01D2444C.0C2DB110] -----Oprindelig meddelelse----- Fra: Qgis-developer [mailto:qgis-developer-boun...@lists.osgeo.org] På vegne af Victor Olaya Sendt: 30. januar 2017 15:27 Til: qgis-developer Emne: [Qgis-developer] OTB and LiDAR tools as separate plugins Hi all, I have set up the OTB and LiDAR tools Processing provider as separate plugins, each of them in its own repo. The idea is to have those providers that require 3rd party apps outside of the core Processing, so they can be installed separately and managed independently. Alex Bruy already did that for the TauDEM provider. The removal of these two providers is in this PR (yet to be merged) https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/pull/4076 LiDAR Tools and OTB plugins are in repos in my github account at the moment, but they will be transfered. The OTB dev team has accepted taking the ownership of the OTB plugin, and Martin Isenburg (creator of LASTools) will take the ownership of the LiDAR tools one. They will take care of managing them and making releases when needed I hope this will help better organizing these pieces of Processing, and making it clearer for users how to use these providers. If you have any comment, please let us know.
