Hi Denis,

Is there anything I missed? Anything lighter to write?
I'd write:
f = QgsFeature()
if layer.getFeatures( QgsFeatureRequest().setFilterFid( self.subset[i] )
).nextFeature( f ):
return f
I would like to add a convenience QgsFeatureRequest constructors that
would save people some typing - one for filtering by FID, another for
filtering by rectangle, so it would get a bit lighter:
layer.getFeatures( QgsFeatureRequest( fid ) ).nextFeature(f)
-or-
f = layer.getFeatures( QgsFeatureRequest( fid ) ).next()
(StopIteration exception would be thrown if the FID wouldn't exist)
I have been thinking also about providing convenience getFeatures()
call, for even shorter syntax:
layer.getFeatures( fid ).nextFeature(f)
I would welcome short-hands for common use-cases.
The only thing is, that for layer.getFeatures (plural) passing an array
of id's seems more natural to me, while layer.getFeature( fid ) returns
one feature only.
For a direct replacement of featureAtId() calls I have thought also
about adding getFeature() convenience call, that would return first
feature of a request:
f = layer.getFeature( fid )
Opinions?
