0.4.3
- Fix: two error handlers discarded their exception silently. Failing
to
remove the cached metadata file when refreshing the catalog, and
failing
to read the local Overpass cache while falling back to it, are now
reported with the underlying cause instead of being swallowed.
- No functional change: the 0.4.2 SSL fix is unchanged and ships here.
0.4.2
- Fix (SSL on freshly installed Windows/OSGeo4W): downloads failed
with
"unable to find issuer certificate" because the bundled CA material
only
covered the IPEA server and was only injected in the geobr downloader.
The plugin now ships the self-signed roots used by the GitHub mirror,
SICAR, ANA/SNIRH, INDE, SGB, IBAMA, Overpass and the satellite
basemap.
- The certificate injection moved to a single module
(core/ssl_support.py)
and is now applied to the WFS, ArcGIS REST and Overpass connectors,
plus
the default SSL configuration used by the XYZ basemap.
- Certificates are only added as trust anchors; no verification
setting is
ever relaxed.
- Network failures now report the host and the underlying error
instead of
a generic message.
0.4.1
- Fix (QGIS 4.x / Qt6): the cache directory lookup used the unscoped
QStandardPaths.CacheLocation enum, which raises on PyQt6 and made the
municipality list fail with "geobr catalog unavailable". The enum is
now
scoped, and the same fix was applied to the Overpass network error
check.
- The catalog error message now appends the real underlying exception
instead of only showing the generic connection hint.
- The metadata cache path is resolved defensively, so a cache failure
falls
back to the bundled offline CSV instead of aborting.
- Declares supportsQt6 so Qt6 builds of QGIS offer the plugin.
0.4.0
- Added explicit QGIS 4.x compatibility
0.3.2
- New: municipal OSM road network via Overpass — links + nodes
topology,
persisted to the municipality GeoPackage, with the same skip-if-exists
behavior as the WFS/ArcGIS sources.
- Robust error handling for Overpass fetches (network errors, invalid
JSON responses, per-source timeout honored).
- Fix: SSL certificate failure when loading IPEA metadata on Windows,
with a safe fallback.
- First non-experimental release.
0.3.1
- Packaging: exclude the scratch/ research scripts from the published
zip
(they used urllib/ssl/xml and were flagged by the repository security
scan).
No change to plugin behavior.
0.3.0
- Master Plan diagnostic: dock panel (state -> municipality) that
loads
official layers by axis into a local GeoPackage.
- New connectors: WFS (CQL_FILTER) and ArcGIS REST (where=), plus an
Esri
World Imagery satellite basemap.
- 29-source declarative catalog across 8 axes; server-side filter by
municipality with client-side clip to the municipality polygon.
0.2.0
- Phase 2: Parquet backend (geobr v2.0.0) with 28 read_*_v2
algorithms.
- censobr integration: join_censo joins geobr census tracts with
census tables.
- Parquet read via the GDAL driver or a pyarrow fallback
(driver-independent).
- 55 algorithms total (26 v1 + 28 v2 + join_censo).
0.1.0
- Initial release (Phase 1): Processing provider with the legacy GPKG
v1.7.0 backend.
- read_country, read_region, read_state, read_municipality,
read_census_tract,
read_weighting_area, read_metro_area, read_biomes and more.
- On-disk cache and mirror fallback (IPEA -> GitHub).
- Fully PyQGIS + stdlib, no external dependencies.
