----------------------------------------- -----------------------------------------
With QGIS 3.0.2 or later, you will need to manually install the plugin. With QGIS < 3.8 you will need to manually install the plugin.
Clone qgis-otb-plugin repository and set ``QGIS_PLUGINPATH``: You can follow the instruction here: https://gitlab.orfeo-toolbox.org/orfeotoolbox/qgis-otb-plugin#otb-provider-for-qgis-processing
For Linux/Unix/MacOSX
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
:: With QGIS > 3.8, the plugin is in the QGIS core. So you just need install OTB and set the plugin up.
mkdir $HOME/projects; cd $HOME/projects
git clone https://gitlab.orfeo-toolbox.org/orfeotoolbox/qgis-otb-plugin
export QGIS_PLUGINPATH=$HOME/projects/qgis-otb-plugin
For Windows
^^^^^^^^^^^
Clone qgis-otb-plugin repository to ``C:\qgis-plugins\qgis-otb-plugin``
::
git clone https://gitlab.orfeo-toolbox.org/orfeotoolbox/qgis-otb-plugin
Then set the ``QGIS_PLUGINPATH`` variable:
* System properties (``Windows Key + R -> sysdm.cpl`` )
* Select Advanced Tab -> Environment variables.
* Under "user variables for "
* Add or Edit variable ``QGIS_PLUGINPATH`` and set value to ``C:\qgis-plugins\qgis-otb-plugin``

Using the processing toolbox (for QGIS < 3.0) Troubleshoot
--------------------------------------------- ------------
As of QGIS 3.8 the otb plugin is in the core. It might get messy if you have a previously installed plugin. Try to remove the old plugin before launching QGIS.
In older QGIS version (3.0 or before), OTB applications are available from QGIS.
Use them from the processing toolbox, which is accessible under `Processing
-> ToolBox`. Switch to “advanced interface” in the bottom of the
application widget and OTB applications will be there.

Using a custom OTB
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
If QGIS cannot find OTB, the “applications folder” and “binaries folder”
can be set from the settings found under Processing :math:`\rightarrow`
Settings :math:`\rightarrow` “service provider”.
.. figure:: Art/QtImages/qgis-otb-settings.png
On some versions of QGIS, if an existing OTB installation is found, the
textfield settings will not be shown. To use a custom OTB instead of the
existing one, you will need to replace the otbcli, otbgui and library
files in QGIS installation directly.
