class QgsVectorFileWriter : QgsFeatureSink
{
%Docstring(signature="appended")
A convenience class for writing vector layers to disk based formats
(e.g. Shapefiles, GeoPackage).

There are two possibilities how to use this class:

1. A static call to :py:class:`QgsVectorFileWriter`.writeAsVectorFormat(...) which saves the whole vector layer.
2. Create an instance of the class and issue calls to addFeature(...).

Write contents of vector layer to an (OGR supported) vector format

:param onlySelected: write only selected features of layer
:param datasourceOptions: list of OGR data source creation options

:param skipAttributeCreation: only write geometries
:param newFilename: QString pointer which will contain the new file name
                    created (in case it is different to fileName).
:param symbologyExport: symbology to export
:param symbologyScale: scale of symbology
:param filterExtent: if not ``None``, only features intersecting the
                     extent will be saved (added in QGIS 2.4)
