Re: [Qgis-developer] QGIS 2.10.1 Pisa - Read CSV file problem

2015-08-07 Thread Zoltan Szecsei

Hi Chris,
Good on you.
I logged it yesterday (#13187).
Do you get to mark it as fixed?
For the sake of a snail-trail, it's probably better than me just 
withdrawing it?


I completed the job I was doing, by parsing the csv files in bash (I 
moved the job over to my linux setup - I only use the Windows version 
for 'quickies'), so for now I am not in a hurry for this - but if I get 
another request for the job I was doing, I'll just pull the code and 
build it on my system.


Thanks again for seeing the bigger picture.

Regards,
Zoltan

Hi Zoltan

I've removed this constraint on field names from the QGIS code - this will 
apply in the next release of QGIS.  So no need to raise a bug.  If you do want 
to (or have other issues/feature requests) information about how to do so is at 
http://qgis.org/en/site/getinvolved/development/index.html#bugs-features-and-issues.
  Feedback from the user community is certainly encouraged.

Until the next release though you may have to write a script to deal with the 
files (or live with the replaced field names).

As to the silence - who knows!  Certainly this hasn't been raised to my knowledge, and 
the feature has been there a couple of years now.  I think if many users were 
affected this would have come up sooner, but great that you have raised it.

Cheers
Chris

Hi Chris,
Thanks for the opinion.
Do I log this as a bug?

Whilst I am quite happy to write a bash script to parse and alter my 500 CSV
files, I do feel that this is likely a more serious issue, as it will affect, I
assume a lot of, users that load CSV files to join them to their spatial data.
Maybe the silence on this is because it either goes unnoticed, or there are
many people just doing a work-around.

Let me know.

Thanks  regards,
Zoltan

Hi Zoltan

I think this could be classed as an error!  The source code rejects field

names that look like positive numbers (some digits optionally followed by a
period and some more digits).

I can't recall a reason why it should do this.  It could be reasonable to

require field names to be compatible to database attribute names, but I
can't see any need for that within QGIS itself.  This can go on a 'to-do' list 
to
fix...

Cheers
Chris

Subject: [Qgis-developer] QGIS 2.10.1 Pisa - Read CSV file problem

Hi,
Using the above version on Win 7 64 bit, I read a CSV file (as
attributes only) stipulating that first record has field names
Record 1 is as follows:
SALnum,SALnam,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10+

When I open the attribute table, I see that fields 1  2 have names
SALnum and SALnam, but the rest are called 'Field_3', 'Field_4' and so

on.

When I edit record 1 of this CSV file to look like:


SALnum,SALnam,1p,2p,3p,4p,5p,6p,7p,8p,9p,10+p

The I get the correct field names (albeit 1p instead of just 1)

Is this an error, or is there some reason further down the line, that
attribute tables cannot have 'numeric' field names?

Thanks and regards,
Zoltan

Hi Richard, 

Thank you for dealing with this very annoying issue. It is easy to ruin
a good reputation, but not so easy to gain one. 

And it is especially annoying if such warnings to not provide enough
meaningful information to fix such warnings.

Re: [Qgis-developer] very slow on creating a new empty spatialite db

Hi Pierluigi,

InitSpatialMetadata() will insert about 5,000 rows into the
spatial_ref_sys table.
SQLite is a full ACID DBMS, so performing so many INSERTs
outside a TRANSACTION will certainly be a very slow operation.

solution #1:
---
sql = 'BEGIN; SELECT InitSpatialMetadata(); COMMIT;'

solution #2:

sql = 'SELECT InitSpatialMetadata(1);'

both solutions have the same identical effect:
in the first case you'll explicitly define a Transaction
in your own SQL code.
in the second case by passing to InitSpatialMetadata()
a TRUE argument you'll authorize this function to silently
handle an internal Transaction.

[Qgis-developer] very slow on creating a new empty spatialite db

2015-08-07 Thread Ing. Pierluigi De Rosa
Dear all,

I'm experiencing than when I create a new empty spatialite from qgis it
takes long time to do it.
Here belo is the code I tried:

---
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
from qgis.core import *
import qgis.utils
from pyspatialite import dbapi2 as db
import timeit

start = timeit.default_timer()

dbase='/home/pierluigi/Scrivania/db.sqlite'
conn = db.connect(dbase)
cur = conn.cursor()

sql = 'SELECT InitSpatialMetadata()'
cur.execute(sql)
conn.commit()

stop = timeit.default_timer()
print stop - start
---

If i run this code my pc start swapping so much and to prepare the empty
db (the total variable) it takes 722.3559 sec or better ABOUT 12
MINUTES!!!

Of course the same is if I just save a layer into spatialite format.

Why is this happens?
Is there a work around for my code to speed up che db creation?

I'm running qgis on ubuntu 14.04, qgis 2.8 LTS from launchpad unstable
repo.

Thanks
Pierluigi
