I would like to know where I can find a list of parameters that can be specified when importing a CSV into QGIS using python. The documentation I've found only shows a few options.
I would like to specify the number of lines to skip, and the fields of the X and Y when there isn't a header. How do I find the complete list of options?
Here are the parameters required while importing a delimited text file: (String values are usually case-insensitive. Yes, yes, YES are all valid)
| key | value(s) |
|---|---|
| crs | e.g. epsg:4326, EPSG:3857 |
| type | csv/regexp/whitespace |
| delimiter | <delimiter character(s) or regular expression> |
| xField | <field name> |
| yField | <field name> |
| zField | <field name> |
| mField | <field name> |
| spatialIndex | yes/no/y/n |
| subsetIndex | yes/no/y/n |
| watchFile | yes/no/y/n |
| geomType | none/point/line/polygon |
| wktField | <wkt field name> |
| maxFields | number |
| quote | <quote character> e.g. " |
| escape | <escape character> e.g. " |
| skipLines | number |
| skipEmptyFields | yes/no/y/n |
| useHeader | yes/no/y/n |
| xyDms | yes/no/y/n |
| trimFields | yes/no/y/n |
| encoding | <encode> e.g. utf-8, turkish, latin1 |
| subset | ??? |
| detectType | yes/no/y/n |
| decimalPoint | <decimal character is comma> -> , |
| booleanTrue | <text for True> e.g. true, True, TRUE, OK etc. |
| booleanFalse | <text for False> e.g. false, False, FALSE etc. |
Uri structure:
uri = f"file://{file_path}?key=value&key=value&..."
