''Custom Python Expression Functions for QGIS''
== Usage of Expression Functions ==


Examples where Expression Functions (EFns) can be used in QGIS are: symbology, labeling, calculating fields, defining virtual fields, selecting and filtering data, layouts, atlas serial printing and reports, map tips, custom python expressions, parameters for processing, and many more.


=== Using Expression Functions ===
This is a more systematic list:
# "Server-side" / data-related:
## "Select features using an expression" based on a field(Layer property).
## "Filtering features" while loading from source. See form view of Attribute table (button on bottom right corner) > click on 'Show All Features' (bottom left) and select 'Advanced Filter (Expression)'.
## "Layer > Properties > Tab Fields" in Button "Text Edit" in default- and in constraints field.
## "Layer > Properties > Tab Style" in "Label with" field.
## "Field Calculator" to defining new or virtual fields (Layer property).
## "Conditional formatting" of a field in Attribute table (Create a new rule and set the condition to the output of a custom EFn).
# Analysis-related:
## "Statistics Panel" / "Statistical Summary" of a field.
## "Atlas Generation" in the Print Composer. Project > Print Composer > Check 'generate an atlas' > Set EFn based values for page name, filter and output filename.
## Processing
# "Client-side" / style-related:
## "Map Tip" tool (Layer property).
## "Rule based labeling" (drop-down menu) in Layer Properties > Labels; click on '+' button and add a EFn based filter to a field.
## Part of "Geometry generator" for geometry field in "Style > Symbol Layer Type"


Where are Expression Functions used?
== Possible examples of custom Custom Expression Functions ==
* Any place where expressions are allowed, e.g. in Attribute Table as Select-Filter, Label-Properties, in Field Calculator when creating/updating fields.
# Function doing something "local" like from other field(s).
* Processing => Refactor fields
# Functions reading something like a "Singleton" like a system environment variable (usage "env('USERNAME')") layer properties or number sequence (spcial Plugin needed?).  
 
How to use:
* See http://docs.qgis.org/testing/en/docs/user_manual/working_with_vector/expression.html?highlight=expression
* and this workshop
 
Possible examples:
# Function doing something "local".
# Function reading from other field(s).
# Functions aka "Singleton" like system environment variables (usage "env('USERNAME')") layer properties or number sequence (spcial Plugin needed?).  
# Function for remote webservice: geocoding (reading from the internet).
# Function for remote webservice: geocoding (reading from the internet).
# Function reading from other layers (outlook, rather candidate for a plugin).
# Function reading from other layers (out of scope for a workshop rather, ev. also a processing or plugin candidate).
 
=== Writing Expression Functions ===
 
How to install and share an Expression Function?
* Save and (Re-)Load in "Function Edtior" (saves to "%USERHOME%.qgis2\python\expressions" (where %USERHOME% under Windows is e.g. "C:\Users\sfkeller\").
* Add Fn. to "%USERHOME%.qgis2\python\startup.py ()
* Add Fn. to the "Expresion Plus Plugin"
* Add Fn. to any (own and loaded) QGIS plugin
 
Debugging:
* use "print"
* use pdb (see QGIS docs and giswiki)
* (use Remote Debug Plugin)
