Description

I sometimes use boolean data types represented with checkboxes. In QWC (QGIS web client) I want to display them with yes/no instead of "t" and "f". I need to therefore detect these boolean values.

In the output of the GetProjectSettings reponse I get the type as QString. I cannot use the edit type, because in this setup the edit type is set to "Hidden". I want to hide them in QGIS desktop but show them in QGIS Web Client.

So, is there a chance that the boolean values (set to boolean in Postgis) would be reported as boolean and not as a QString?

example output of GetProjectSettings:

<Attributes>
       <Attribute precision="0" length="-1" editType="Immutable" type="int" comment="" name="GID (Punktelement)"/>
       <Attribute precision="0" length="-1" editType="ValueRelation" type="int" comment="" name="GID Baustellenprojekt"/>

       <Attribute precision="-1" length="-1" editType="Hidden" type="QString" comment="" name="Betroffen Cablecom"/>
       <Attribute precision="-1" length="-1" editType="Hidden" type="QDate" comment="" name="Start Bauprojekt"/>
       <Attribute precision="-1" length="-1" editType="Hidden" type="QDate" comment="" name="Start Koordination Werke"/>

       <Attribute precision="-1" length="-1" editType="Hidden" type="QString" comment="" name="Ausführungsjahr"/>
       <Attribute precision="-1" length="-1" editType="Hidden" type="QString" comment="" name="Bemerkung"/>
       <Attribute precision="-1" length="-1" editType="Immutable" type="QString" comment="" name="tooltip"/>
      </Attributes>

in the above example all of the "Betroffen_xxx" attributes are actually of type boolean, but are reported as "QString".

Alternatively it would be useful to have an additional column in the fields tab called "Desktop" that separates the "Hidden" from the widget choice.

This would be even more flexible and elegant.

  • Resolution set to fixed/implemented
  • Status changed from Open to Closed

This was already implemented in QGIS server a while ago.
