A QGIS plugin for editing a SHOGun GIS client instance. See https://github.com/terrestris/shogun

After connecting with SHOGun, the user can edit applications and layers on the SHOGun server, in interaction with the QGIS interface.

• Add layers from SHOGun to QGIS (as WFS, WMS or raw data)

• Upload new layers (vector and raster format) from QGIS to the SHOGun server

• Upload layer style (vector layers only) from QGIS and apply to the layers in SHOGun -> most basic styling is implemented, also the upload of custom symbols for point layers

• Edit static data like names, descriptions, ...

• Create new SHOGun applications

• Set applications homeview directly from the QGIS interface

You can install the plugin via the QGIS plugin repository or manually. Manually installing: Copy the "shoguneditor directory to your qgis plugins directory which you should find at:

usually in your home directory you find: .qgis2/python/plugins/ -> if you need more details see this link (chapter "The Copy Method")

To find the plugins folder, open up QGIS, in the menu go to Settings->User Profiles -> Open active profile folder In the file explorer, go to python/plugins/ and paste the folder there

After copying just open up QGIS, activate the plugin in the plugin manager and you are done

Create a symlink:

# move to your your plugins directory:
cd ~/.local/share/QGIS/QGIS3/profiles/default/python/plugins
# link your workspace with the plugins directory:
ln -s  ~/workspace/qgis-shogun-editor/src/shoguneditor shoguneditor

• install Plugin Reloader (experimental)
• install debugvs

• install ptvsd (sudo) pip3 install ptvsd (--user) (needed by debugvs)
• add qgis to python path: export PYTHONPATH=/usr/share/qgis/python (depends on location of qgis/python)

• install python extension from marketplace

• in QGIS open Plugins > Plugin Reloader > Configure
• select plugin that should be reloaded
• start debugvs: In QGIS open Plugins > Enable debug for visual studio > Enable debug for visual studio
• in VSCode go to Debug tab and start debugging in attach mode
• make sure that property pathMappings.remoteRoot is set in launch.json as absolute path or VSCode variable

• The plugin works with QGIS 2.x and 3.x, but currently there is a problem with adding wfs layers to QGIS ins 3.x, which has to be resolved

• As already mentioned, the plugin works with basic authentication requests and therefore can only be used with SHOGun installations which support basic authentication

• Layer styles based on custom icons in SHOGun currently cannot be imported to QGIS, but styles with custom icons created in QGIS can be uploaded to SHOGun

• Layer styles based on font symbols are currently not supported by the plugin
