I tried to do a batch export of 19 geopackage layers to dxf and got an error I don't understand (I don't speak Python very well). First error of 19 pasted in below from my log, all of them the same.

Two suggestions:

Can you try the following In the v.out.dxf dialog window pull down the "Advanced parameters", then in the "GRASS GIS 7 Region" click the ellipsis and select "Calculate from layer" and select your export layer. And then "Run".

Second suggestion:

Why would you go from a geopackage, inport to GRASS only to then export to DXF? Why not simply run a loop using ogr2ogr, directly from *.gpkg to *.dxf? Something like: (depending on your command shell)

for f in *.gpkg; do
dxf=`basename ${f} .gpkg`.dxf
ogr2ogr -f DXF ${dxf} ${f}
done

??

  • I didn't use ogr2ogr because I was using the GRASS toolbox inside QGIS. I ended up using the GDAL "convert format" tool and that worked fine. Thanks for the suggestions, I'll try the ogr2ogr next time =)

I didn't end up getting the GRASS tool to work within QGIS, but I used the GDAL "convert format" tool and that worked well enough.
