It is a very easy task in PostGIS, but the discussion figured out, that QGIS has no tool/plugin or something else to get the closest point geometries on an easy way. It is only possible to create a join between two layers via the field calculator or the function „join attributes by nearest“. Because of this, I created a new plugin (after a long time with a low priority for this project ^^) called Closest Points. It creates a point layer with the closest points using the PyQGIS functions nearestPoint() and distance(). For me this tool is very helpful, maybe Someone of you could need it too :)
