Re: [Qgis-user] web based spatial MIS/Dashboard
Thanks for your response! I think the most common case would be: 1. data in postgres database 2. editing done in qgis 3. viewing map and some selected graphs/tables in the web browser with the ability to (for example) click on a feature and use that to filter the data to only include data for that feature in the graphs/tables/other dashboard items, or be able to select from a drop down list and use that as a filter. Which indeed corresponds to your Scenario 2. If I understand this correctly, you will always need to program the HTML frontend to communicate with the backend, and there are no tools that let you automagically configure the html front end with dragging and dropping a map widget and a graph widget with some settings for data sources? I guess what clients might be asking for is the equivalent of ArcGIS dashboards... I have not worked with it, but from the docs it seems to be the type of functionality clients have on their wish list, where no coding is required to publish a map with some corresponding indicators. (https://www.arcgis.com/apps/dashboards/7edefc1970d44b839ebbfd7b45e51e2d for example). So maybe my questions are on two levels: - what would someone need to do to create something with a similar result (any recommended tools/libraries/languages - Rosa just recommended some) - is it desirable to have an Open Source tool that allows for creating something with that functionality without the need for coding? And if so, what would be the way to go about it? Which would maybe be more of a discussion rather than a technical question. cheers!

In that case, depending on your budget and available skillset, etc.: ## Scenario 1: * Editors use QGIS as normal * Consumers: - use an HTML visualisation exported via qgis2web (https://github.com/qgis2web/qgis2web), or - use a stripped down version of QGIS consisting of a map canvas plus whatever controls may be necessary (requires Python skills) ## Scenario 2: * PostGIS (or Spatialite) are used as the backend * Editors use QGIS as normal * Consumers use an OpenLayers-powered HTML frontend communicating with a backend (NodeJS, Python, Go, etc., etc.) that communicates with the RDBMS backend. If no consumer editing is required at all, qgis2web is the cheapest and quickest solution. ___ QGIS-User mailing list QGIS-User@lists.osgeo.org List info: https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user Unsubscribe: https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user

[Qgis-user] spatial selection in parent table to edit records in child table without geometry
Dear all, In Postgres, I have a parent table with geometry, and a child table without. A relationship has been defined between the two which works for the forms I'm using. I would like to be able to use the map to select features in the parent table and the corresponding records in the child table, in order to be able to edit the selected child records. I know I can create an updateable view in postgres that would achieve this. Is there a better/easier way to do it? A way to let the child layer inherit the geometry from the parent? I first thought to join the parent table to the child table, but that only joins the attributes, and doesn't make the child table spatially selectable. Using the db manager to create a virtual layer gives the correct query result, but the loaded layer is not editable (as to be expected, I think) and the attribute table is empty (maybe not expected). I have the suspicion that this should be straightforward and I am just overlooking the obvious. Any pointers/thoughts are appreciated.

Re: [Qgis-user] qt designer does not have/show QgsDateEdit widget
Hi Richard and Andrea (and others),
thanks for clarifying/confirming - then it is not something I
misunderstood. I originally had the QDateEdit widget, which was working,
but giving a warning that it will not accept NULL values. As I would like
to be able to set it to NULL I thought of using QgsDateEdit. I have now
indeed managed to instead format the QgsDateTimeEdit widget to only show
the date, which will do for my purpose.
I am now trying to adjust the code that was working for QDateEdit to work
for the QgsDateTimeEdit with the following function that gets called
clicking a button. The first message will display the time and date
correctly, so 'now' seems to have the correct value. The second message
does not get displayed, but I also do not get an error message, and the
date does not get changed. Which makes me believe
"self.assesmentdate.setDateTime(now)" is not correct.
def assesmentdate_now(self):
if self and self.layer.isEditable():
now = QtCore.QDateTime.currentDateTime()
QgsMessageLog.logMessage(now.toString(), 'MyPlugin',
level=Qgis.Info)
self.assesmentdate.setDateTime(now)
QgsMessageLog.logMessage('test', 'MyPlugin', level=Qgis.Info)
What would be the correct syntax for setting the QgsDateTimeEdit widget to
show the current date? Or does anyone have ideas how I can find out what's
happening, seeing that I am not getting error messages? The script gets
called by the attribute form.
Thanks for any thoughts,
Janneke

[Qgis-user] changed relationship behaviour between qgis 2.x and 3.x?
Dear all, As a learning experience I am trying to make an application that was developed with python 2 and qgis 2 with a postgres backend of vs 9.3 work with python 3/qgis 3/postgres 13. As expected, there are plenty of places where it is still not working as it should, but I have managed to upgrade the database, open the project file in qgis 3.16, and all the layers (based on views) have loaded correctly. The relationships that were stored in the project file also seem to be working correctly with the existing .ui files. I can open the parent layer form, and in the child form I can see the foreign key reflected properly, and changing as the selected parent feature is changed. All the relationship settings were set manually and stored in the project file. When I change the column preview on the left hand side of the form from parentid to any other column, the child form still shows the parentid correctly. For testing/learning purposed I did the whole process manually from scratch in 3.16. When I now open the parent layer form, and set the column preview on the left of the form to anything else than the parentid, in the child form, where I would have expected the parentid as before, it shows the column used in the column preview. Is this the expected behaviour? Is it possible to set this to the 'old' behavior? If so, can that also be done using python (ultimately I want to load the layers and create the relationships in python)? Below some screenshots to clarify what I described. Thanks for your help, Janneke Original situation (A), behaviour as expected: A) With locationid as column preview shows corresponding locationid in child form (the number 1) The same when changing the column preview: (now locationid in child form is number 11288) B) Manually newly created relationships, with column preview of the parent id shows it in the child form (note that there seems to be a box in front of another box, in another situation I have seen it looking like a greyed out combo box) With the newly created relationship, when selecting districtid as a column preview, it is the district id that is shown in the child form, not the locationid. ___ Qgis-user mailing list Qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org List info: https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user Unsubscribe: https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user
[Qgis-user] getting started with qgis server - countries layer not showing
Dear list, I am following along with the (testing) QGIS server guide/manual hoping I can get QGIS server to work on my windows laptop, using https://docs.qgis.org/testing/en/docs/server_manual/getting_started.html . I've installed XAMPP, and http://localhost/cgi-bin/qgis_mapserv.fcgi.exe?SERVICE=WMS=1.3.0=GetCapabilities seems to be working (I get the capabilities). I then downloaded the training data (as instructed) from https://github.com/qgis/QGIS-Training-Data/archive/v2.0.zip and unzipped them into a folder and set the QGIS_PROJECT_FILE variable to point to the world.qgs file. The guide continues with: http://localhost/qgisserver? MAP=/home/qgis/projects/world.qgs& LAYERS=countries& SERVICE=WMS& REQUEST=GetMap& CRS=EPSG:4326& WIDTH=400& HEIGHT=200 In Firefox, when I adjust that to: https://localhost/cgi-bin/qgis_mapserv.fcgi.exe?LAYERS=airports=WMS=GetMap=EPSG:4326=400=200 I get a white rectangle with some airplanes in the top left corner - I think that means success (for now at least). When I replace 'airports' with 'places' it shows the same rectangle, but with circles in the top left corner - also success, more or less. When I replace 'airports' with 'countries' I only get to see the white rectangle, and no countries. What could be the reason that I do not get to see the countries? How do I go about troubleshooting this? When I open the project file directly in QGIS I get to see all the layers and they all look as I would expect them to look. When I open a separate qgis desktop blank project, and start adding the layers as WMS I have other issues: adding each layer with epsg:3857 the layers overlay nicely with each other and a google hybrid layer. Adding them with epsg:4326 (and setting the project CRS to 4326) it seems as if the map gets squeezed from the sides, so the world map looks higher than it is wide (in the example in the tutorial it's wider than it's tall). When trying to zoom in on Europe it will 'jump' to Asia. This seems to suggest that the WMS is more or less working (it can be reached from the browser) but it needs certain settings to work properly? I am entirely new to QGIS server and any pointers to understand what it is that I'm looking for would be greatly appreciated. Does anyone else working with the same data manage to display the countries layer in a browser? Working with qgis server and desktop LTR from OSGeo4W64 on Windows 10.

[Qgis-user] automating the updating of records in existing layer using values from a joined layer
Dear all, I will be getting data from the field (geopackage files) on a regular basis and need to join them to the 'masterfile' and update a few column values based on the joined attribute values. This works fine manually, either by using the field calculator or the update bar with the table in editing mode. I would like to automate parts of this process and am getting stuck in different attempts. 1. In the model builder, I cannot figure out how to make the field calculator take only the selected records to be updated, and I cannot figure out how to make it update records in the existing layer as opposed to creating a new layer. Is this even possible? 2. In DB manager, I can select the joined masterfile (with fieldwork file) as a virtual layer (selects 174 rows, including the joined attributes) select * from masterfile where fld_date_updated > '2019-07-19' but I get a syntax error in the update statement: update masterfile set result_account = fld_result_account where fld_date_updated > '2019-07-19' "Query execution error on CREATE TEMP VIEW _tview AS update masterfile set result_account = fld_result_account where fld_date_updated > '2019-07-19': 1 - near "update": syntax error" I can not find the syntax error. Is this because it's a virtual layer and it cannot be updated? Is there a way to update records in virtual layers? 3. In DB manager, if I make a connection under geopackage with the master file, I am not able to make a join with the virtual layer with the field data, it will not recognise the field layer. I am a bit baffled, as I would think this should be something straightforward. Is what I want possible, using either the model builder or the db manager and a reusable sql script? Or is it not possible to semi-automatically update records from within QGIS without having to create a new output file? Using QGIS 3.8.1 (osgeo installer) 64 bit on windows 10 Thanks for any insights, Janneke ___ Qgis-user mailing list Qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org List info: https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user Unsubscribe: https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user
[Qgis-user] add unique constraint to geopackage in QGIS DB Manager
Dear list,
I would like to make an existing field in a geopackage layer unique - it
does not contain any data at the moment. In the DB Manager (both QGIS
2.18 and 3.4 on Windows 10) I have tried many variations of the below:
ALTER TABLE 'RUJWASCO_follow_up' ADD CONSTRAINT 'result_account_uq'
UNIQUE('result_account');
I have written it without quotes, with double quotes, some with some
without single and double quotes. I have written it with a space between
UNIQUE and the bracket. First question is: is it possible to add a
unique constraint to a geopackage layer? If yes, my second question is -
what would be the correct syntax? (And maybe: where can I find
documentation about geopackage sql syntax?).
Thanks for any insights...

[Qgis-user] spatialite with update trigger seems to result in 'unselectable' geometry
Dear list, Could anybody maybe help me understand what I'm doing wrong (or even tell me that what I want to do can't be done)? This is what I'm trying to do. I have a spatialite layer with columns north and east which contain coordinates in decimal degrees. I would like to be able to change the coordinates in the attribute table and have the trigger take care of updating the geometry based on the new coordinates. The following update statement, using the DB manager: UPDATE watersources SET geom = Transform(MakePoint(east, north, 4326), 32638) WHERE id=1678; works as expected: after saving the edits, the point will appear in the new location based on the changed coordinates, and I can select the point in the map and I can use the identify button to open the form at that point. If (by way of a test) I use the same statement inside a trigger (and I realise this is not ultimately how I would want to define the trigger, but I'm trying to understand the different effects of the same update statement): CREATE TRIGGER update_geom AFTER UPDATE ON watersources BEGIN UPDATE watersources SET geom = Transform(MakePoint(east, north, 4326), 32638) WHERE id=1678; END I can change the coordinates, save the changes and stop editing, the point will indeed appear in the new location, but I can't select it in the map, or use the identify feature to open the form. I can locate it in the attribute table and select it and use 'zoom to selected' after which the map will center on the selected point (but not zoom in). After running the update statement 'stand alone' again, all works as expected again. Does anyone have an idea why this could happen? Has anyone tried doing something similar in spatialite and gotten it to work? Any tips on how I could troubleshoot this? I have a test file with only 4 points that I could share if that helps. Using QGIS 3.4.4. on Windows 10. Any help/thoughts will be appreciated!

Hi Saulteau, I had looked in Panels and it didn't show up there. I ended up uninstalling 3.4.4, reinstalling 3.4.3 (because I needed to finish something using processing), and then uninstalling 3.4.3 and reinstalling 3.4.4 - intending to test your other suggestions - but this time the processing menu was back and all worked. I have no idea what happened with the first installation, but anybody running into the same issue can try reinstalling 3.4.4 first. Thanks for the help!

But at the top menus, look for Settings > Panels > Processing Toolbox Panel On Windows the Panels sub-menu might be in another place like View instead of Settings. Another easy way to turn on the processing toolbox is to right click on an empty space in the user interface (on a grey spot near another toolbar for example) and there is a menu that pops up with 'Processing Toolbox Panel' to toggle on and off. Lastly, the tools can be searched at the bottom left of QGIS (hotkey CTRL+K) which is what I tend to use quite a bit.

Re: [Qgis-user] [Qgis-community-team] training manual QGIS 3
Hi Harrissou and others,
With your steps described below it was perfectly clear what I had to do,
no confusion in my mind whatsoever. So I just tried to compare it to the
documentation (link:
https://docs.qgis.org/testing/en/docs/documentation_guidelines/first_contribution.html#share-your-changes-via-pull-request)
<https://docs.qgis.org/testing/en/docs/documentation_guidelines/first_contribution.html#share-your-changes-via-pull-request>
and will try to describe what according to me was not clear in the
documentation.
In the documentation, I had arrived at step 1, second bullet point,
where it says "you therefore need to leave that page and follow the next
step". Then, moving to the next step (2) it says "you can create a new
pull request at any moment from many pages" - which "tricked" me into
pressing the button "new pull request" from my own page - and I think
the compare across forks option is either not there, or maybe it is not
so obvious, and the "if needed" addition made it sound it might not be
that important to click the compare across forks. Once you do click
"compare across forks" it is more clear that what I thought was the
actual "master" was just my own master, not qgis master.
For me, as a complete beginner, I would prefer the method you describe
below (1. 2. 3. off you go) if it is a fool-proof way of creating your
pull request. I do not necessarily need to know about all the other
ways. Would it be possible/make sense to maybe have a simple workflow
that always works (even if it is not the most efficient one) and
separately discuss alternative methods?
I'll come back to the fix me button in another mail.

[Qgis-user] Different behaviour Raster Calculater under Raster menu vs Processing Toolbox
Dear all, I'm testing the training manual (QGIS 3) and think I ran into a bug - unless I am misunderstanding something. I am doing the following, QGIS 3.4.3 on Windows: 1. Processing>Raster terrain analysis>Aspect: use the exercise_data\raster\SRTM\srtm_41_19.tif DEM as an input and use the default settings (data from https://github.com/qgis/QGIS-Training-Data/archive/v2.0.zip) 2. Processing>Raster analysis>Raster calculator: "Aspect@1" <= 90 OR "Aspect@1">= 270 as expression, use the DEM layer for extents. 3. The resulting output gets created, but the information from provider shows "STATISTICS_VALID_PERCENT=0" and it does not have min and max values I have tried using a more simple expression like "Aspect@1" > 90 with the same result. Copying and pasting the expression in the Raster calculator under the menu Raster works as expected (values of 0 and 1). Using the Raster Calculator under Processing with another input layer and similar expression worked. So it seems that "something" when the aspect raster is created causes it "not to work" with the raster calculator under processing, while it still works with the RC under Raster. Can anyone confirm this is a bug?

Dear Edrouin, I just had the same issue, trying to get qfield to work. I used the QFieldSync plugin and copied the whole project folder in Android\data\ch.opengis.qfield\files (on the SDcard - though it's formatted as internal SD card) and it would not show the folder.

[Qgis-user] is it possible to use virtual fields that depend on other virtual fields for styling and labeling?
Dear list, First, I'm not sure this is a question for the user list or the developer list so I send it to both. In the attached project with test shapefile I have a shapefile with three virtual fields (integers). The first two virtual fields (vTest and vTest2) contain expressions to assign integers, the third virtual field (vTest3) multiplies the values of vTest and vTest2. I can use vTest and vTest2 in Styles and in Labels, but not vTest3. In styles it will not categorise, and the labels will just not show in the map. The values show correctly in the attribute table and with the information tool. Is it a bug? Does anyone else have this issue? I'm using today's nightly build on Windows 7. As a work around I can create a non virtual field and use the field calculator to set the values to the values in vTest3. kind regards, Janneke virtualstyle.rar Description: Binary data ___ Qgis-user mailing list Qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org List info: http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user Unsubscribe: http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user

Re: [Qgis-user] updating postgres updateable view much slower from attribute table than using db manager
Hi Matthias, I think I can follow that, and it makes sense that QGIS does the calculation independently of the provider for consistency. I will indeed look into the details of the view and see if it is one particular join that is so expensive or that it is just the total number of joins that causes it. At the same time I'll keep my eyes open for potential projects that might be able to contribute, but that's a bit more complicated. Thanks for helping me understand the background of the process, Janneke On 30/11/2015 14:46, Matthias Kuhn wrote: Hi Janneke, The reason for individual statements are mainly that expressions (field calculator) and SQL (table manager) are not completely equal. Some functions are only supported by QGIS, some only by postgres/postgis. The expressions should be supported by all data providers (different database systems, non-database systems) and therefore QGIS plays safe and just does the calculation always on its own. Some background: We have this summer started to be able to generate postgres SQL from expressions (where possible) but this has only been applied to some isolated areas (like filtering for rendering). It would theoretically be possible to use it for provider side updates as well but that's an ambitious task that will need some work by an experienced developer. I'd propose looking into what makes updating your view so expensive (probably easier) or consider to contribute towards provider side updates Matthias On 11/29/2015 10:03 PM, Janneke van Dijk wrote: Hi Jürgen, After your remarks I thought I would try the individual update statements (7000 of them ) directly on postgres.

Re: [Qgis-user] updating postgres updateable view much slower from attribute table than using db manager
Hi, Using the field calculator either from the attribute table or from main window with the attribute table closed both takes too long to be useful. Not the actual calculation, but the saving of the edits. To be clear: I originally used the update expression bar to update the selection, but all three methods take too long to save. I'm currently experiencing the issue on localhost, so it's not the network connection. I have a workaround by reducing the number of joins (or finding the join that is causing the problem) and rewriting the definition of the view, however, it would be interesting if it could be solved in QGIS. thanks for any help/thoughts, Janneke On 29/11/2015 18:50, Matthias Kuhn wrote: Hi, Short explanation for the difference: * If you do it with the db manager you send a request to the database "please update all records with this SQL". * If you do it with the field calculator, QGIS requests all records, evaluates the expression locally and sends dozens of update statements. That said, the time is pretty long anyway. I am sure that there's potential for improvement also with local evaulation. But this can be limited by several factors: How long does it take with the field calculator and the attribute table closed? (There have been some bottlenecks for updating the table in the past) How long is the network latency (a simple "ping [server]" gives already a good hint) Best Matthias On 11/29/2015 04:42 PM, Janneke van Dijk wrote: Hi Nyall, Tested it with 12.1.1, that doesn't make a difference as far as I can tell (40 minutes now). I tested the view without the many joins for lookup values (it had about 13 joins and reduced it to 4), which made it take around 15 seconds, which would be acceptable. I haven't yet tested if it may be one specific join that causes the behaviour or that it is the number of joins. I'm still curious to understand what the difference is between the update statement in the db manager and the way the data are updated from the attribute table. Could it be that the update via db manager only needs to 'calculate' the joins once, where the update via the attribute table has to loop through all the selected features, 'calculating' the joins for every record that needs to be saved? If that is the case, would there be a way to bypass this behaviour (by using the original where clause for making the selection maybe)? greetings, Janneke On 28/11/2015 01:42, Nyall Dawson wrote: On 27 Nov 2015 10:18 PM, "Janneke van Dijk" <janneke.q...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Dear list, > > I have an updateable spatial view in Postgres loaded into QGIS 2.10.

Re: [Qgis-user] updating postgres updateable view much slower from attribute table than using db manager
Hi Nyall, Tested it with 12.1.1, that doesn't make a difference as far as I can tell (40 minutes now). I tested the view without the many joins for lookup values (it had about 13 joins and reduced it to 4), which made it take around 15 seconds, which would be acceptable. I haven't yet tested if it may be one specific join that causes the behaviour or that it is the number of joins. I'm still curious to understand what the difference is between the update statement in the db manager and the way the data are updated from the attribute table. Could it be that the update via db manager only needs to 'calculate' the joins once, where the update via the attribute table has to loop through all the selected features, 'calculating' the joins for every record that needs to be saved? If that is the case, would there be a way to bypass this behaviour (by using the original where clause for making the selection maybe)? greetings, Janneke On 28/11/2015 01:42, Nyall Dawson wrote: On 27 Nov 2015 10:18 PM, "Janneke van Dijk" <janneke.q...@gmail.com <mailto:janneke.q...@gmail.com>> wrote: > > Dear list, > > I have an updateable spatial view in Postgres loaded into QGIS 2.10.

[Qgis-user] updating postgres updateable view much slower from attribute table than using db manager
Dear list, I have an updateable spatial view in Postgres loaded into QGIS 2.10. When I update 6999 records in this view in the db manager with the following statement: update v_prepare_assessment_id SET districtid = 8 where locationid > 13000 and locationid < 2 it takes 2.7 seconds to complete. When I open the attribute table, select the same records, then use the update bar in the top to update the districtid to 8, using 'update selected' , then save edits, it takes more than 10 minutes (after which I closed the project). Doing the same update directly on the attribute table of the underlying postgres table works nicely (takes about 3 seconds) after save edits. Does anyone know why the update via the attribute table on the view takes so long as to be unusable, while the db manager works nicely with the view? Seeing that working directly on the underlying table from the attribute table works well too it's seems to be a combination of the attribute table approach with an updateable view that seems to cause the issue.

Re: [Qgis-user] SOLVED: split features tool on postgres layer causes pkey violation
Hi Bernd,
Indeed, that was the problem.
Running
SELECT setval('a_streets_streetsid_seq', COALESCE((SELECT
MAX(streetsid)+1 FROM a_streets), 1), false);
solved the issue. Still not sure what caused this in the first place,
but have added your trigger to the table for the future.
greetings,
Janneke

Hi,
I cannot confirm this behaviour neither with 2.8 on Win7 nor with 2.10
on Linux. When asking the new features with the "i" tool after
splitting, one keeps its pk value the other displays
nextval("my_sequence"). Maybe the problem is that features have
received pk values by other means then nextval("sequence"), thus the
sequence's current start value is lower than the maximum pk value. To
avoid such confusion I create a BEFORE INSERT or UPDATE trigger for my
tables. This is the trigger function:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION my_schema.my_table_ensure_sequence()
RETURNS trigger AS
$BODY$
BEGIN
IF (TG_OP = 'INSERT') THEN
NEW.id:= nextval('my_id_seq');
ELSIF (TG_OP = 'UPDATE') THEN
NEW.id := OLD.id;
END IF;
RETURN NEW;
END; $BODY$
LANGUAGE plpgsql VOLATILE
Users cannot manipulate the value of the id field anymore neither when
INSERTing nor when UPDATEing.

The a_streets table has a serial primary key.
It seems similar to the bug described here:

Is this indeed a bug? Or can the tool not be used on postgres layers?
Thanks for any insights,

Re: [Qgis-user] use autogenerated form in Qgis for same table in different postgres databases
Hi Bernhard,
with the new plugin I was able to configure a mask for a table (it
doesn't work for a postgres view, even if the view is editable? Would
that not be possible to adjust?), and initialise the layer, and open the
dataform. I did have to enter the databasename and password several
times in a row. I have not tried using it yet but it at least opens and
it looks promising!
Things that I have working in the autogenerated form but don't see here
(yet), I would like to know if it's already possible or if I would have
to modify this using Python:
- Is it possible to have the comboboxes show the descriptions of the
corresponding lookup table, in stead of the ids that will be stored in
the table? (the autogenerated form worked on the view that already
provided the descriptions)
- Do I understand it correctly that it can only be used for editing
existing data, not for adding new records?
I'll look at it in more detail tomorrow, see if this can do what I would
need it to do.
Thanks!
