QGIS algorithm - Extract Shapefile encoding

Source: R/qgis_shpencodinginfo.R

QGIS Algorithm provided by QGIS (native c++) Extract Shapefile encoding (native:shpencodinginfo). Extracts the attribute encoding information embedded in a Shapefile. This algorithm extracts the attribute encoding information embedded in a Shapefile. Both the encoding specified by an optional .cpg file and any encoding details present in the .dbf LDID header block are considered.

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

Arguments

INPUT

file - Input layer. Path to a file.

...

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.
