Using the Graphical Modeler in QGIS 3.0

|

While I've written a handful of plugins in the past for QGIS, I've always wanted to learn about the graphical modeler which is a lot easier than writing all the Python by hand, especially creating the dialogs and setting up the methods yourself.

Today I’ve been studying up a lot on Python and Qt. 🇶

Qt is a library used to build graphical interfaces, while Python is a very popular and widely used scripting language. I have coded a bit in PyQt for various QGIS plugins in over the years, but I am hardly an expert on either Python or Qt so I am trying to understand the ins and outs more. While I doubt I have much of a need for GUI programs — I prefer things that are small, simple command line things — the Unix way — it’s good to have a better understanding of Qt for the QGIS plugins I use for my various projects.
