[SoC] GSoC 2021 - Week-6 Report: A new render type On the fly Raster Calculator for QGIS

[Francesco Bursi]

Hello to everyone,

I'm sharing with you the weekly improvment on my project for the sixth week of coding for the period from 12th July - 18th July. You can find in [1] the main wiki page of the project and in [2] the branch of the forked repo in which you can find all the change I'm doing.

Coding Period/Evaluation period:

Taks achieved

  *   Submit the evaluation;
  *   Do a draft pr with some documentation and informations to the official QGIS repository that can be found in [3];
  *   Adjust and refine both my provider constructor and decode methods in order to check the URi correctly and to be able to use the provider without hardcoded data;
  *   Modify a small part of my block method and complete the copy constructor in orde to use the provider from the python console inside QGIS;
  *   Change some test methods;

Plans for next week:

  *   Design a method (some methods) to write the URi in an easy way;
  *   Start to look at the implementation of the UI;

At the moment I'm not blocked on anything in particular. Don't hesitate to ask me for feeback or more specific clarification.
