I have a shapefile with points referring to a webpage with a photograph.



Until now I define an action to open the corresponding webpage in firefox. Eg.
enter image description here



I have to share my project. Because I don't know the configuration of the receiver I want to create an action in Python to open the webpage into QGIS:
enter image description here



This works if there is just one point I have to select. But there are several points that hide each other (more than one picture taken from the same place).



With the 'Generic-action' multiple url's opens into firefox. On the other hand: with the 'python-action' only the first url, lying on top, opens.



I tried following:



from PyQt4.QtCore import QUrl
from PyQt4.QtWebKit import QWebView
layer = qgis.utils.iface.activeLayer()
myWV = layer.selectedFeatures()
for f in myWV:
f = QWebView(None)
f.load(QUrl(['foto_url']))
f.show()


This does not work.

  • You shouldn't change the loop variable (f) inside loop ( f= QWebView(None)). To refer to a column you need a feature f['foto_url']. This action is working for selected item not the one you clicked on.

  • For short term, it's not important but in the future QtWebKit module will be removed (e.g osgeo-org.1560.x6.nabble.com/…)

A solution was given by Tim Sutton in A python layer action to open a wikipedia page in QGIS (in one single line):



In my case, the field is "URL" and the complete path of one feature is for example



http:/..../descriptions/4280614.htm (URL = "4280614.htm")



The Python action is then (in one single line):



from PyQt4.QtCore import QUrl; from PyQt4.QtWebKit import QWebView; myWV = QWebView(None);myWV.load(QUrl('http:/..../descriptions/[% "URL" %]')); myWV.show()


You can use this script with a local file (QUrl.fromLocalFile):



/Users/Shared//descriptions/htm/4280614.htm



from PyQt4.QtCore import QUrl; from PyQt4.QtWebKit import QWebView; myWV = QWebView(None); myWV.load(QUrl.fromLocalFile('/Users/Shared//descriptions/htm/[% "test" %]')); myWV.show()


And with an image



from PyQt4.QtCore import QUrl; from PyQt4.QtGui import QLabel, QPixmap; label = QLabel(None); pixmap = QPixmap('[% "image" %]'); label.setPixmap(pixmap); label.show()


and...
