Plugin approval

@vivanmig Please remove all .pyc files they are automatically created when the plugin starts. How different is this from a user saving the layer as kml and using it in google earth

[vivanmig]

@NyakudyaA Hi there, I have deleted all the .pyc files here: https://github.com/vivanmig/QGIS/tree/master

Export to Google Earth plugin directly converts only the selected features in QGIS into kml when the user clicks on the plugin button without having to go through the GUI to save selection as kml. This is designed for immediate inspection of the geographical location of the selected features. Its function is similar to the Send2GE plugin, except Export to Google Earth exports polygons and lines too.

Upon selecting features and clicking on the Export to GE button as below: This is the end result:

@vivanmig Ok I think It's a good plugin. I would however suggest you do a PR and merge your work with https://github.com/nextgis/send2google_earth/ so that we can have all the export to google earth consolidated into one plugin. I can initiate the discussion for you on their github page

[vivanmig]

@NyakudyaA Thanks very much. It would be great if you could initiate the discussion for us as this is my first plugin and I'm still quite unfamiliar with the plugin merging or publishing process.

@vivanmig thanks a lot, Just in summary when a plugin is uploaded we check for functionality and if it doesn't exist we approve and if there are other plugins that does almost similar functionality we encourage colloboration. This also allows you to interact with other devs in the QGIS community. I have created an issue https://github.com/nextgis/send2google_earth/issues/9

[vivanmig]

I see. Will we share the ownership to the consolidated plugin?

Please give us feedback, so we can publish it. Thanks.

[vivanmig]

Hi there,

I made a pull request to the owner of the Send2Google_Earth plugin on 26 Nov 2017 and uploaded our consolidated plugin zip file but haven't gotten any feedback or reply from the original plugin owner since then.

Below is the link to the pull request I made and the consolidated plugin(zip file) can be found here: https://github.com/nextgis/send2google_earth/pull/10

I have also tagged NyakudyaA https://github.com/NyakudyaA on the following page to inform the PR made on 26 Nov 2017 : https://github.com/vivanmig/QGIS/issues/1

Let me know if you'd like me to forward or upload the plugin elsewhere and whether you're able to view the plugin content.

Cheers.

Thanks a lot. Do you have the personal address of the original author? It may be worth to ping him.

[vivanmig]

I don't have the owner's personal contact detail, but here is the link to the original owner's Send2google_earth plugin page. They go by the name simgislab on Github: https://github.com/nextgis/send2google_earth

Thanks!
