Hi Devs,
I'm using a geojson url from an external service to retrieve features in
a plugin.
But this service wants me to set an 'Accept-Encoding' header to be able
to retrieve GEOjson (instead of json)...
Is there a way to do this using the QgsVectorLayer-constructor?
I've had a quick look into the code and could not find any header
related stuff.
And gdal itself in the geojson driver is not mentioning any headers:
https://gdal.org/drivers/vector/geojson.html
The wfs driver seems to have some file to be able to 'set headers' using
a GDAL_HTTP_HEADER_FILE (https://gdal.org/drivers/vector/wfs.html)
but that seems a little overkill.
My last resort off course is to do the request myself using for example
a QgsBlockingNetworkRequest (setting the headers), and then feed the
geojson to a QgsVectorLayer.
But given REST-full api's nowadays favour content-negotiation via
headers over the use of an extension [0] I think gdal/QGIS should maybe
be able to set headers in the constructor/context?
