Geog 120-style Group By tool

[josephholler]

If you'd like access to the group by tool we used in geog 120, you can try installing our new MiMiGIS plugin by downloading the code from GitHub:

And then install the plugin from Zip in QGIS. I think MacOS may automatically unzip the files as you download, in which case they may need to be re-compressed into a zip in order to install.

Alternatively, I have versions of the geog 120 models in this repository

[josephholler]

The file must be unzipped before you can use it...

For some reason still, whenever I try to install the plugin, it allows me to install but gives me the error that it could not load the plugin. Do you have more detailed installation instructions?

[majacannavo]

Did you unzip the plugin folder first? I think it should work if you take the zipped folder and use that in the "install plugin from zip" menu in QGIS. (so in other words I wouldn't unzip)

[evankilli]

Nope, left it unzipped, but regardless of zipping, it stil gives the same "could not load plug-in" error

[evankilli]

I can copy the error message into here if that helps

Try this: On the repository page, scroll down to the ReadMe document and right below the title, click the "download" link. Then try installing that zip. I'm not totally sure what the difference is between the two download options, but the "download" link has been working for me.

[evankilli]

I've already tried downloading from both sources, and it doesn't seem to be working for either

I think you can also just use the same aggregation tool we used in the first model

@mtango99 That's probably what I'll end up doing when I figure it out

[majacannavo]

I'm so sorry it's not working--I'm not sure what the problem is, but we should definitely look into it.

[josephholler]

I have a feeling there's confusion between loading a plug-in to qgis vs adding a single model. You can add the .model3 files to the processing toolbox through the red/grey gear icon menu we used to create our own model. One of the options is to add model to toolbox.

[evankilli]

I'll try adding the models from the repository instead of trying to install the plugin then
