Thanks Jef!
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?
+10 ;)
f = layer.getFeature( fid )
getFeatures( [fids] ).nextFeature( f )
getFeatures( rect ).nextFeature( f )
I think these 3 would be really welcome!
