[GRASS-dev] Access to GRASS GIS addons

[Stefan Blumentrath]

Dear Nikos,

Approaches are a bit different for Processing and the GRASS plugin, though both do not allow usage of GRASS addons out-of-the-box.
Assuming you are aiming at integration in Processing have a look here:
https://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/150100/how-to-add-my-own-grass-algorithms-to-processing
and
https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/blob/b3d2619976a69d7fb67b884492da491dfaba287c/python/plugins/processing/algs/grass7/description/r.horizon.height.txt
on how you would have to tweak local GRASS and QGIS installation.

For less experienced users that are supposed to use the addon, you would probably want to write a little installation routine for your addon, that puts txt files into right places in the installation and also installs the GRASS addon systemwide...

Cheers
Stefan

Dear QGIS developers,

I'd much appreciate some response in the following questions.

I rarely use Windows, yet I would like to learn about the latest status in accessing GRASS GIS addons (not only regular modules) through QGIS under Windows.

If I write an addon for GRASS GIS, can I then provide/ensure access to it for Windows users of QGIS?

Thank you, Nikos
