[Qgis-developer] qgsAtlasComposition

[Stott James]

Thanks for the reply.

I am using QGIS master from OSGeo4W. At the moment I am just trying to get the example in the test to work. But it always falls over at beginRender(). My vector layer is a query from a PostGIS database.

Code is below (as you can see it is pretty much the same as the test code):

           query = """(SELECT * From test.tablename WHERE substring(knrgnrbnr from 1 for 4) = '""" + KommuneNr + """')"""
            
            vlayer = loadPostGISLayerQuery("localhost", "5432", "database", "user", "password",query,"geom","gid","layername")

            QgsMapLayerRegistry.instance().addMapLayer(vlayer)
            mMapRenderer = QgsMapRenderer()
            layerStringList = QStringList()
            layerStringList.append( vlayer.id() )
            mMapRenderer.setLayerSet( layerStringList )
            mMapRenderer.setProjectionsEnabled( True )
            crs = QgsCoordinateReferenceSystem()
            crs.createFromSrid( 32632 )
            mMapRenderer.setDestinationCrs( crs )

            mComposition = QgsComposition( mMapRenderer )
            mComposition.setPaperSize( 297, 210 )
            
            props = { "color": "0,127,0" }
            fillSymbol = QgsFillSymbolV2.createSimple( props )
            renderer = QgsSingleSymbolRendererV2( fillSymbol )
            vlayer.setRendererV2( renderer )

            mAtlasMap = QgsComposerMap( mComposition, 20, 20, 130, 130 )
            mAtlasMap.setFrameEnabled( True )
            mComposition.addComposerMap( mAtlasMap )
            
            mAtlas = QgsAtlasComposition( mComposition )
            mAtlas.setCoverageLayer( vlayer )
            mAtlas.setComposerMap( mAtlasMap )

            mAtlas.setFilenamePattern( "'output_' || $feature" )
            mAtlas.beginRender()
            for i in range(0, mAtlas.numFeatures()):
                mAtlas.prepareForFeature( i )
                expected = QString( "output_%1" ).arg(i+1)
                assert mAtlas.currentFilename() == expected
                
            mAtlas.endRender()

Hi James,

Can you share the code you're using ? Or a stack trace or a line number where the error occurs ?
What version / git revision are you using ?

You have to call setCoverageLayer and setComposerMap before calling beginRender(), is it the case ?

This is linked to the previous issue. Features are iterated over during
beginRender()

I was about to say everything work fine here, but ... I realized there is something wrong with the last changes I did.

Should be fixed with this:
https://github.com/qgis/Quantum-GIS/pull/516

Not sure if it will fix your problem ...
