Description

Qgis 2.4 version return empty QgsComposition from standalone application
QgsComposition empty from QgsMapRenderer()
This is the code that work with 2.2
if I use myMapRenderer=iface.mapCanvas().mapRenderer() from python console it work fine

project = "myproject.qgs"

QgsProject.instance().setFileName(project)
QgsProject.instance().read()

layertot = QgsMapLayerRegistry.instance().mapLayers()
myMapRenderer = QgsMapRenderer()
myMapRenderer.setLayerSet(layertot.keys())
mapRectangle = QgsRectangle(xmin,ymin,xmax,ymax)
myMapRenderer.setExtent(mapRectangle)

comp = QgsComposition(myMapRenderer)
comp.setPlotStyle(QgsComposition.Print)
comp.setPaperSize(180,180)
comp.setPrintResolution(150)
composerMap = QgsComposerMap(comp, 0,0,180,180)
comp.addItem(composerMap)

dpi = comp.printResolution()
dpmm = dpi / 25.4
width = int(dpmm * comp.paperWidth())
height = int(dpmm * comp.paperHeight())
image = QImage(QSize(width, height), QImage.Format_ARGB32)
image.setDotsPerMeterX(dpmm * 1000)
image.setDotsPerMeterY(dpmm * 1000)
image.fill(0)
imagePainter = QPainter(image)
sourceArea = QRectF(0, 0, comp.paperWidth(), comp.paperHeight())
targetArea = QRectF(0, 0, width, height)
comp.render(imagePainter, targetArea, sourceArea)
imagePainter.end()
image.save("c:/temp/test.png", "png")

It's an unfortunate API break in 2.4. You need to pass a QgsMapSettings object to the constructor of QgsComposition. So something like:

myMapSettings = QgsMapSettings()
comp = QgsComposition(myMapSettings)

Please confirm that this works fine for you.

Also this produces an empty result

myMapRenderer = QgsMapSettings()
myMapRenderer.setLayers(layerset)

comp = QgsComposition(myMapRenderer)

should this be tagged as blocker (as a regression)?

#4 Updated by Nyall Dawson about 11 years ago

Fabio - can you test explicitly setting your composer map's extent? ie composerMap.setNewExtent(mapRectangle)

Qgis 2.10 version still returns empty QgsComposition from standalone application

# canvas = iface.mapCanvas() # seems to work
mapRenderer = canvas.mapRenderer()

composition = QgsComposition(mapRenderer)
composition.setPlotStyle(composition.Print)

dpi = composition.printResolution() 
dpmm = dpi / 25.4 
width = int(dpmm * composition.paperWidth()) 
height = int(dpmm * composition.paperHeight())  

# add a map to the composition 
x, y = 0, 0 
w, h = composition.paperWidth(), composition.paperHeight() 

composerMap = QgsComposerMap(composition, x, y, w, h) 

# tried this
mapRectangle = QgsRectangle(0,0,400,400)
composerMap.setNewExtent(mapRectangle)

composition.addItem(composerMap) 

# create output image and initialize it 
image = QtGui.QImage(QtCore.QSize(width, height), QtGui.QImage.Format_ARGB32) 
image.setDotsPerMeterX(dpmm * 1000) 
image.setDotsPerMeterY(dpmm * 1000) 
image.fill(0) 

# render the composition 
imagePainter = QtGui.QPainter(image) 
sourceArea = QtCore.QRectF(0, 0, composition.paperWidth(), composition.paperHeight()) 
targetArea = QtCore.QRectF(0, 0, width, height) 
composition.render(imagePainter, targetArea, sourceArea) 
imagePainter.end() 

image.save("/home/eric/%s.jpg" % province , "jpg")

I tried this to see if anything would happen, but it didn't.

mapRectangle = QgsRectangle(0,0,400,400)
composerMap.setNewExtent(mapRectangle)
