Class: QgsWidgetWrapper

class qgis.gui.QgsWidgetWrapper

Bases: PyQt5.QtCore.QObject

Manages an editor widget Widget and wrapper share the same parent

A wrapper controls one attribute editor widget and is able to create a default widget or use a pre-existent widget. It is able to set the widget to the value implied by a field of a vector layer, or return the value it currently holds. Every time it is changed it has to emit a valueChanged signal. If it fails to do so, there is no guarantee that the changed status of the widget will be saved.

Bases: int

RootPath = 0
childEvent()
config(self, key: str, defaultVal: Any = None) → Any

Use this inside your overridden classes to access the configuration.

Parameters:
  • key – The configuration option you want to load
  • defaultVal – Default value
Returns:

the value assigned to this configuration option

config(self) -> Dict[str, Any] Returns the whole config

Returns:The configuration
connectNotify()
context(self) → QgsAttributeEditorContext

Returns information about the context in which this widget is shown

Returns:context information
createWidget(self, parent: QWidget) → QWidget

This method should create a new widget with the provided parent. This will only be called if the form did not already provide a widget, so it is not guaranteed to be called! You should not do initialization stuff, which also has to be done for custom editor widgets inside this method. Things like filling comboboxes and assigning other data which will also be used to make widgets on forms created in the QtDesigner usable should be assigned in initWidget().

Parameters:parent – You should set this parent on the created widget.
Returns:A new widget
customEvent()
dataDefinedProperties(self) → QgsPropertyCollection

Returns a reference to the editor widget’s property collection, used for data defined overrides.

New in version 3.0.

disconnectNotify()
fromWidget(widget: QWidget) → QgsWidgetWrapper

Will return a wrapper for a given widget

Parameters:widget – The widget which was created by a wrapper
Returns:The wrapper for the widget or NULL
initWidget(self, editor: QWidget)

This method should initialize the editor widget with runtime data. Fill your comboboxes here.

Parameters:editor – The widget which will represent this attribute editor in a form.
isSignalConnected()
layer(self) → QgsVectorLayer

Access the QgsVectorLayer, you are working on

Returns:The layer

field()

propertyDefinitions() → object

Returns the editor widget property definitions.

New in version 3.0.

receivers()
sender()
senderSignalIndex()
setConfig(self, config: Dict[str, Any])

Will set the config of this wrapper to the specified config.

Parameters:config – The config for this wrapper
setContext(self, context: QgsAttributeEditorContext)

Set the context in which this widget is shown

Parameters:context – context information
setDataDefinedProperties(self, collection: QgsPropertyCollection)

Sets the editor widget’s property collection, used for data defined overrides.

Parameters:collection – property collection. Existing properties will be replaced.

New in version 3.0.

setEnabled(self, enabled: bool)

Is used to enable or disable the edit functionality of the managed widget. By default this will not change the enabled state of the widget

Parameters:enabled – Enable or Disable?
setFeature(self, feature: QgsFeature)

Is called, when the value of the widget needs to be changed. Update the widget representation to reflect the new value.

Parameters:feature – The new feature
timerEvent()
valid(self) → bool

Return true if the widget has been properly initialized. This acts as hint for the calling party if this wrapper can be used after initializing it. If it cannot be used this is a hint to the caller that he may try to find another suitable widget type instead.

Returns:Validity status of this widget.

New in version 2.12.

widget(self) → QWidget

Access the widget managed by this wrapper

Returns:The widget
