QGIS algorithm - Minimum enclosing circles — qgis

QGIS Algorithm provided by QGIS (native c++) Minimum enclosing circles (native:minimumenclosingcircle). Calculates the minimum enclosing circle which covers each feature in an input layer. This algorithm calculates the minimum enclosing circle which covers each feature in an input layer. See the 'Minimum bounding geometry' algorithm for a minimal enclosing circle calculation which covers the whole layer or grouped subsets of features.

qgis_minimumenclosingcircle(
  INPUT = qgisprocess:::qgis_default_value(),
  SEGMENTS = qgisprocess:::qgis_default_value(),
  OUTPUT = qgisprocess:::qgis_default_value(),
  ...,
  .complete_output = .complete_output_option(),
  .quiet = .quiet_option(),
  .messages = .message_option()
)

Arguments

INPUT: source - Input layer. Path to a vector layer.
SEGMENTS: number - Number of segments in circles. A numeric value. field:FIELD_NAME to use a data defined value taken from the FIELD_NAME field. expression:SOME EXPRESSION to use a data defined value calculated using a custom QGIS expression.
OUTPUT: sink - Minimum enclosing circles. Path for new vector layer.
...: 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.
