I'm thinking to an option, similar to --configpath, so that qgis starts authenticating itself against an existing DB, using the authentication from the system (e.g. Active Directory, etc.). > I remember Larry was working on related topics.

This is nice, but it can evolve in parallel: once the double option (.qgs and db) is in place, any additional info can be added to both.

Re: [Qgis-developer] Project on DB
Hmm, interesting idea. By now, I could deal with it with profile QGIS2.ini fine tuning. User settings also concerns all that is stored in .qgis profile (settings, GUIncustomization, processing conf and use models). What you suggest implies that QGIS can authenticate itself and register to a DB. We would need then to add some LDAP or CAS to QGIS. I remember Larry was working on related topics. Any more ideas on that? Another point, I guess that we should before conclude on a long running topic, the one about refactoring qgs file so that it can store additional resources such as data stored along the project, svg resources, scripts. This would hep defining what is a full profile and what is exactly a project file. My 2 cents too ;-) -- View this message in context: http://osgeo-org.1560.x6.nabble.com/Project-on-DB-tp5201328p5201348.html Sent from the Quantum GIS - Developer mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ Qgis-developer mailing list Qgis-developer@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer
Re: [Qgis-developer] Project on DB
We are not working on thia but I agree with you. A db project would help a lot also for data concinstency, and this is a cross reference to the topological tools post you wrote a few minutes ago: having a set of rules stored within the DB. This would keep data coherent between users and editing sessions. my 2 cents giovanni Il 14/apr/2015 18:59 "Paolo Cavallini" ha scritto: > Hi all, > we have already discussed this, and I'd like to raise the point. > In corporate environment, it would be crucial to store both user > settings and default projects in the database, so that an user could > start with a preset environment.

[Qgis-developer] Project on DB
Hi all, we have already discussed this, and I'd like to raise the point. In corporate environment, it would be crucial to store both user settings and default projects in the database, so that an user could start with a preset environment. This is an extension of our previous work, storing styles for individual layers. Is anyone working on this, or interested to?
