Hello, my question was answered at the QGIS hackfest by Matteo Ghetta with a DataPlotly code snippet. (-: You can add your own entries into the "Processing Settings" menu under the "Providers" section by following the example below in your own Provider class. from processing.core.ProcessingConfig

Hello, when the LAStools toolboxes were part of the "built-in" scripts of Processing I had was able to have two entries (i.e. the folder path to the "Wine" and the "LAStools" installation) in the "Processing Settings" menu under the "Providers" section. You can see as an example how GRASS still ha

Hi Martin, It is up to you how to distribute your plugin. You can publish it in QGIS Official plugins repository, or setup your own repository as many other developers do. It is even possible to share just a ZIP with the plugin via web-site, pretty much similar to how LAStools distributed. чт, 23

you can add a simple plugin hosted in the official repo to add your custon plugin repo or a plugin that simplify installation. I agree with that who assume that offial repo have to host plugin with code compatible with GPL2. A plugin that install a plugin can simply override this limitation without

Hi Martin, there are a lot of Processing providers which are not part of the QGIS core. You can easily find some of them in the QGIS Plugin repository by "Processing" keyword. Also in QGIS sources there is an example provider which can be used as staring point, see https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/tre

Hello from Zanzibar, In the next three days I'd like to tackle recreating the LAStools toolbox the way it was available in QGIS 2.4 through 2.18 to also in QGIS 3.2. Is there a guide / example that I can follow to provide the LiDAR tools provider as a separate plugin as we've discussed it previou

Martin That might be my fault. I mentioned that, by having the LiDAR tools provider as a separate plugin, that allows to ship the tools with it (not with QGIS, but with the plugin itself, which you will manage and release whenever you want). Of course, you can still provide the downloads from your

AFAIK, OTB version in OSGeo4W is very outdated (5.0 if I'm not wrong). Right now latest version is 5.8 and OTB team is working on 5.10. I think having OTB provider separated from core will allow to update it faster and also support more OTB features like special parameters types. 2017-01-30 20:28
