qgis-sdk-runtime

The runtime that brings your Python plugin to life in QGIS.

Declare actions and native surfaces with plain Python, then reach QGIS capabilities through scoped services. Pure layers import without QGIS or Qt; qgis-sdk build vendors a private runtime into the plugin ZIP. The runtime has no third-party Python dependencies; QGIS and Qt are supplied by the host.

Status: 0.10.0, experimental 0.x. Each 0.Y.0 carries migration notes; nothing is promised stable before 1.0.0.

Installation

pip install qgis-sdk-runtime   # the QGIS Python console, a host script, a vendored copy
pip install qgis-sdk           # the developer kit: runtime + tools

Example

from qgis_sdk import QgisSdkPlugin, menu
from qgis_sdk.core import PluginContext
from qgis_sdk.ui import Button, Dialog, Form, LogView, Number, on


app = QgisSdkPlugin(id="example", title="Example")

@app.surface
@menu("Plugins/Example")
class PingDialog(Dialog):
    title = "Ping"
    value = Number(integer=True, required=True)   # objectName form/value
    form = Form([value], action_id="ping")        # submits through ctx.actions
    ping = Button(text="Ping")                    # objectName buttons/ping
    answers = LogView(label="Answers")            # shows ctx.log as it arrives

    @on(ping).clicked
    def pinged(self) -> None:
        self.ctx.log.info("pong", value=self.form.submit())


@app.action(id="ping", title="Ping")
def ping(ctx: PluginContext, value: int) -> int:
    return value
