[QGIS-Developer] QGIS on mobile Linux?

2020-12-28 Thread Stefan Blumentrath
Dear all, While I am very fond of mobile QGIS versions like QField and Input, I am wondering if anyone in the QGIS community is having an eye on emerging mobile Linux solutions using Phosh, Lomiri, Plasma mobile on devices like PinePhone[1], PineTab[2] or Librem5[3]? Anyone who tried it out or

Dear Nikos, Approaches are a bit different for Processing and the GRASS plugin, though both do not allow usage of GRASS addons out-of-the-box. Assuming you are aiming at integration in Processing have a look here:

2018-08-15 Thread Stefan Blumentrath
Dear Rudi, Nyall, GRASS is being used on HPC systems for heavily parallelisation. So, in principle, the answer is yes, you can for sure run GRASS algorithms in parallel. On Linux, I often run several commands in parallel using xargs. So it works just fine in many cases. GRASS also has some

Dear devs, When I try to load a layer from a PostGIS data source where the connection has timed out, is there a way in pyqgis (2.18) to refresh the connection programmatically like in DBmanager before loading the layer? psycopg2 connections are no problem... The following however: # Add new

Hi, Regarding the negative effect of algorithms getting lost I fully agree with you Paolo. However, it might simplify the discussion if we try separate user experience and development (and packaging) solutions as well as means and ends... Aim should be to have the different back-ends

Hi Tim, While your at GRASS provider in Processing: I noticed that it (still) uses linked OGR data (v.external). However, that does not work for all algorithms and particularly not for all data types. Points are less of a problem, but areas are often. See:

Hi Richard, We/I have done so earlier from OSGeo4W binaries, using creatnsis.pl (meaning without compiling stuff ourselfs) while injecting use of --configpath option in the startup batch scripts). That was a quite OK solution until the number of relevant packages grew beyond the size limit of

Dear all, I am really looking forward to seeing all QGIS configuration in ini-files and that registry will be abandoned on Windows in QGIS 3! That will be a great improvement, esp. from a sys-admin perspective! In this consolidation context I was wondering I would be possible to prepare for:

Yes, thank you very much, Médéric! Maybe you can have a look at / incorporate this one: https://issues.qgis.org/issues/14856 ? Using r.external.out could speed-up GRASS raster algorithms significantly… Cheers Stefan From: QGIS-Developer [mailto:qgis-developer-boun...@lists.osgeo.org] On Behalf
