Hello, just to let everyone know that development of the Web/Network API plugin for QGIS Desktop (purpose described here https://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/qgis-developer/2017-May/048431.html) is now well underway. So far all commits have gone into the plugin repository itself: https://gitlab.com/qgisapi/networkapi
For those interested, the README contains instructions on how to install/test the current development versions of the plugin. In contrast to Barry Rowlingson's experimental 'pqgisr' R package (https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-sig-geo/2016-August/024817.html) the approach taken by the GSoC project separates the 'server' side (plugin providing programming language-independent interface to QGIS components+data) from 'client' implementations (e.g. an R package making use of that interface). For the first two weeks coding has been limited to the plugin side so there isn't much ready-to-use functionality yet, however if anyone would be interested in testing early client versions and has any suggestions/requests on what components/functions I should focus on, such feedback would be most welcome! I'm currently developing the plugin against the QGIS 2 API, but with QGIS 3 in mind for easier conversion later on.
