FieldInfo

Résumé

Provides field info methods and properties for layer and table views.

Discussion

The FieldInfo object does not support the renaming of fields when the object is used as input to a geoprocessing tool.

Syntaxe

FieldInfo()

Propriétés

Nom	Explication	Type de données
count (Lecture seule)	The field count.	Integer

Méthodes

`addField(field_name, new_field_name, visible, split_rule)`

Add a field info entry

Nom	Explication	Type de données
field_name	The field name from the input feature class or table.	String
new_field_name	The field name for the new layer or table view.	String
visible	Specifies whether the field will be visible or hidden. VISIBLE—The field will be visible. HIDDEN—The field will be hidden.	String
split_rule	Specifies the behavior of an attribute's values when a feature is split. NONE—The attributes of the two resulting features will take on a copy of the original value. RATIO—The attributes of resulting features will be a ratio of the original feature's value. The ratio is based on the division of the original geometry.

Nom Explication Type de données

Nom	Explication	Type de données
string	The string representation of the object. In addition to `FieldInfo` methods and properties, you can also construct a `FieldInfo` object from a formatted string. Each field is defined by four space-delimited values. Fields are separated by a semicolon. The name of the input field. The name of the output field (not currently supported). Sets whether the field is visible or hidden. `VISIBLE`—The field is visible. `HIDDEN`—The field is hidden. Sets the behavior of an attribute's values when a feature is split. `NONE`—The attributes of the two resulting features take on a copy of the original value. `RATIO`—The attributes of resulting features are a ratio of the original feature's value. The ratio is based on the division of the original geometry. If the geometry is divided equally, each new feature's attribute gets one-half of the value of the original object's attribute. `import arcpy field_info_str = "fieldA fieldA VISIBLE NONE;fieldB fieldB HIDDEN RATIO" field_info = arcpy.FieldInfo() field_info.loadFromString(field_info_str)`	String

FieldInfo example

Display FieldInfo object properties for a feature layer.

import arcpy

feature_class = "c:/Data/wells.shp"
layer = "temp_layer"
arcpy.management.MakeFeatureLayer(feature_class, layer)

# Create a describe object
desc = arcpy.Describe(layer)

# Access Describe's fieldInfo property
field_info = desc.fieldInfo

# Use the count property to iterate through all the fields
for index in range(0, field_info.count):
    # Print fieldinfo properties
    print(f"Field Name: {field_info.getFieldName(index)}")
    print(f"\tSplit Rule: {field_info.getSplitRule(index)}")
    print(f"\tVisible:    {field_info.getVisible(index)}")
