Detailed Description

An enum based parameter for processing algorithms, allowing for selection from predefined values.

Since QGIS 3.24 a list of icons corresponding to the enum values can be specified by setting the widget wrapper metadata "icons" option, as demonstrated below. The "icons" value should be set to a list of QIcon values.

param = QgsProcessingParameterEnum( 'FIELD_TYPE', 'Field type', ['Integer', 'String'])
param.setMetadata( {'widget_wrapper':
{ 'icons': [QIcon('integer.svg'), QIcon('string.svg')] }
})
An enum based parameter for processing algorithms, allowing for selection from predefined values.

◆ allowMultiple()

bool QgsProcessingParameterEnum::allowMultiple ( ) const

Returns true if the parameter allows multiple selected values.

See also
setAllowMultiple()

Definition at line 5193 of file qgsprocessingparameters.cpp.

◆ asPythonString()

QString QgsProcessingParameterEnum::asPythonString ( QgsProcessing::PythonOutputType  outputType = QgsProcessing::PythonOutputType::PythonQgsProcessingAlgorithmSubclass) const
overridevirtual

Returns the parameter definition as a Python command which can be used within a Python Processing script.

The outputType argument specifies the desired output format for the Python string, i.e. the intended end use of the generated Python code.
