Project: QGIS
Version: 3.18
An API has been added in the provider GUI to allow a provider to create a custom widget, which exposes options to customize and change the layer's source. For example, a file-based layer provider could expose a widget for selecting a new file path, or an online provider could expose widgets for changing the host or authentication information.
Two implementations have been added for this:
- A file picker widget for GDAL file-based layers.
- A widget for customizing XYZ layer properties.
