QGIS algorithm - Extract selected features

Source: R/qgis_saveselectedfeatures.R

QGIS Algorithm provided by QGIS (native c++) Extract selected features (native:saveselectedfeatures). This algorithm creates a new layer with all the selected features in a given vector layer. If the selected layer has no selected features, the newly created layer will be empty.

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

Arguments

INPUT

vector - Input layer. Path to a vector layer.

OUTPUT

sink - Selected features. 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.
