pygplates.GpmlTopologicalLine

class pygplates.GpmlTopologicalLine

Bases: PropertyValue

A topological line geometry that is resolved from topological sections.

A GpmlTopologicalLine can also be pickled.

Added in version 0.21.

Changed in version 0.42: Added pickle support.

__init__(sections)

Create a topological line made from topological sections.

Parameters:: sections (Any sequence such as a list or a tuple) – A sequence of GpmlTopologicalSection elements

topological_line = pygplates.GpmlTopologicalLine(topological_sections)

Methods

`__init__`(sections)	Create a topological line made from topological sections.
`accept_visitor`(visitor)	Accept a property value visitor so that it can visit this property value.
`clone`()	Create a duplicate of this property value (derived) instance, including a recursive copy of any nested property values that this instance might contain.
`get_geometry`()	Extracts the `geometry` if this property value contains a geometry.
`get_sections`()	Returns the `sections` in a sequence that behaves as a python `list`.
`get_value`([time=0])	Extracts the value, of this possibly time-dependent property value, at the reconstruction time.

get_sections()

Returns the sections in a sequence that behaves as a python list.

Modifying the returned sequence will modify the internal state of the GpmlTopologicalLine instance:

sections = topological_line.get_sections()

# Append a section
sections.append(pygplates.GpmlTopologicalPoint(...))
