[Qgis-developer] QGIS Layer Search Plugin

[Calvin H]

I was wondering if someone in this group would be interested in giving some
feedback on a plugin I have been writing. I have uploaded it to the QGIS
plugins directory, but it has not been approved yet.

http://plugins.qgis.org/plugins/layersearch/

The intent with this plugin is to be able to search all contents of all
vector layers loaded into QGIS. It will search all layers and all table
columns. It has similar capabilities to the ArcGIS search. The existing
QGIS search plugins seem to have different focuses which is the reason I
wrote this, but should this capability be integrated into some other
plugin? The closest plugin I can find is "Quick Finder" but it seems to
have a different focus. I like that plugin for its
nominatim service which is excellent, but its layer searching does not work
like mine and would be a pain to use for the purpose I wrote this plugin.
MMQGIS also has a search, but not for all layers and columns.

I would personally prefer keeping it as a separate plugin, but what do you
think? Should it be integrated with another plugin?


Thanks,

C. Hamilton
