Class: QgsDataSourceSelectDialog

class qgis.gui.QgsDataSourceSelectDialog(browserModel: QgsBrowserModel = None, setFilterByLayerType: bool = False, layerType: QgsMapLayer.LayerType = QgsMapLayer.LayerType.VectorLayer, parent: QWidget = None)

Bases: PyQt5.QtWidgets.QDialog

Constructs a QgsDataSourceSelectDialog, optionally filtering by layer type

Parameters
  • browserModel – an existing browser model (typically from app), if null an instance will be created

  • setFilterByLayerType – activates filtering by layer type

  • layerType – sets the layer type filter, this is in effect only if filtering by layer type is also active

  • parent – the object

The QgsDataSourceSelectDialog class embeds the browser view to select an existing data source.

By default any layer type can be chosen, the valid layer type can be restricted by setting a layer type filter with setLayerTypeFilter(layerType) or by activating the filter directly from the constructor.

To retrieve the selected data source, uri() can be called and it will return a (possibly invalid) QgsMimeDataUtils.Uri.
