QGIS algorithm - Define projection — qgis_definecurrentprojection • qgis

QGIS Algorithm provided by QGIS (native c++) Define projection (native:definecurrentprojection). Sets an existing layer's projection to the provided CRS without reprojecting features. This algorithm sets an existing layer's projection to the provided CRS without reprojecting features. Contrary to the "Assign projection" algorithm, it will not output a new layer. If the input layer is a shapefile, the .prj file will be overwritten — or created if missing — to match the provided CRS.

qgis_definecurrentprojection(
  INPUT = qgisprocess:::qgis_default_value(),
  CRS = qgisprocess:::qgis_default_value(),
  ...,
  .complete_output = .complete_output_option(),
  .quiet = .quiet_option(),
  .messages = .message_option()
)

Arguments

INPUT: vector - Input shapefile. Path to a vector layer.
CRS: crs - CRS. CRS as an auth ID (e.g. 'EPSG:3111'). CRS as a PROJ4 string (e.g. 'PROJ4:…'). CRS as a WKT string (e.g. 'WKT:…'). Path to a layer. The CRS of the layer is used..
...: further parameters passed to qgisprocess::qgis_run_algorithm()
.complete_output: logical specifying if complete out of qgisprocess::qgis_run_algorithm() should be used (TRUE) or first output (most likely the main) should read (FALSE). Default value is TRUE.
.quiet: logical specifying if parameter .quiet for qgisprocess::qgis_run_algorithm() Default value is TRUE.
.messages: logical specifying if messages from qgisprocess::qgis_run_algorithm() should be printed (TRUE) or not (FALSE). Default value is FALSE.
