[Qgis-user] batch operation on gpkg with multiple layers

Another option is to build a model (or separate processing tools) and use
the batch execute processing options. One issue here is that iterating
through all gpkg layers efficiently will probably require loading them into
the project for the autofill options to work on them, so you'd probably
have to process one gpkg at a time. Also, conditionals and iterators in
models etc are not optimal in the model builder, so this route pretty much
expects the same operations to be performed on most of the layers.
