Feature request: Export attribute table to excel from app. #4474

Open Wisarb opened 1 year ago

Wisarb commented 1 year ago

We use Qfield to help with site management, everyone having a shared map/database on their phone is very useful. We even use it for non-spatial tables for logging other things such as what's going on the compost pile (environmental agency requirement), just to keep everything in one place.

Problem is if anyone wants a table exported to excel to share outside of Qfield, they have to ask me to do it through Qgis. It's easy, but I'm outside most of the day.

It would be useful to allow Qfield users to export an attributes table to a more sharable format, directly from the app. Give them a bit more independence.

That would be a nice functionality. I could imagine this to be configured as processing algorithm. Similar to the pdf export functionality for layouts. That would be super flexibel.

Even if it just spat it out as a .CSV, people could easily open that in their program of choice and tart it up.

Sure, the question is, if we want one feature request and implementation per file format and requirement (calculate some stats on export etc ... ) or if we want a tool to empower users.
