Class Details¶

class GtkSource.FileSaver(**kwargs)¶

Bases:: GObject.Object
Abstract:: No
Structure:: GtkSource.FileSaverClass

classmethod new(buffer, file)¶

Parameters:

buffer (GtkSource.Buffer) – the GtkSource.Buffer to save.
file (GtkSource.File) – the GtkSource.File.

Returns:

a new GtkSource.FileSaver object.

Return type:

GtkSource.FileSaver

Creates a new GtkSource.FileSaver object. The buffer will be saved to the GtkSource.File's location.

This constructor is suitable for a simple “save” operation, when the file already contains a non-None GtkSource.File :location.

New in version 3.14.

classmethod new_with_target(buffer, file, target_location)¶

Parameters:

buffer (GtkSource.Buffer) – the GtkSource.Buffer to save.
file (GtkSource.File) – the GtkSource.File.
target_location (Gio.File) – the Gio.File where to save the buffer to.

Returns:

a new GtkSource.FileSaver object.

Return type:

GtkSource.FileSaver

Creates a new GtkSource.FileSaver object with a target location. When the file saving is finished successfully, target_location is set to the file's GtkSource.File :location property. If an error occurs, the previous valid location is still available in GtkSource.File.

This constructor is suitable for a “save as” operation, or for saving a new buffer for the first time.

New in version 3.14.

get_buffer()¶

Returns:: the GtkSource.Buffer to save.
Return type:: GtkSource.Buffer

New in version 3.14.

get_compression_type()¶

Returns:: the compression type.
Return type:: GtkSource.CompressionType

New in version 3.14.

get_encoding()¶

Returns:: the encoding.
Return type:: GtkSource.Encoding

New in version 3.14.

get_file()¶

Returns:: the GtkSource.File.
Return type:: GtkSource.File

New in version 3.14.

get_flags()¶

Returns:: the flags.
Return type:: GtkSource.FileSaverFlags

New in version 3.14.

get_location()¶

Returns:: the Gio.File where to save the buffer to.
Return type:: Gio.File

New in version 3.14.

get_newline_type()¶

Returns:: the newline type.
Return type:: GtkSource.NewlineType

New in version 3.14.

save_async(io_priority, cancellable, progress_callback, progress_callback_data, callback, *user_data)¶

Parameters:

io_priority (int) – the I/O priority of the request. E.g. GLib.PRIORITY_LOW, GLib.PRIORITY_DEFAULT or GLib.PRIORITY_HIGH.
cancellable (Gio.Cancellable or None) – optional Gio.Cancellable object, None to ignore.
progress_callback (Gio.FileProgressCallback or None) – function to call back with progress information, or None if progress information is not needed.
progress_callback_data (object or None) – user data to pass to progress_callback.
callback (Gio.AsyncReadyCallback or None) – a Gio.AsyncReadyCallback to call when the request is satisfied.
user_data (object or None) – user data to pass to callback.

Saves asynchronously the buffer into the file. See the Gio.AsyncResult documentation to know how to use this function.

New in version 3.14.

save_finish(result)¶

Parameters:: result (Gio.AsyncResult) – a Gio.AsyncResult.
Raises:: GLib.Error
Returns:: whether the file was saved successfully.
Return type:: bool

Finishes a file saving started with GtkSource.FileSaver.save_async().

If the file has been saved successfully, the following GtkSource.File properties will be updated: the location, the encoding, the newline type and the compression type.

Since the 3.20 version, Gtk.TextBuffer.set_modified() is called with False if the file has been saved successfully.

New in version 3.14.

set_compression_type(compression_type)¶

Parameters:: compression_type (GtkSource.CompressionType) – the new compression type.

Sets the compression type. By default the compression type is taken from the GtkSource.File.

New in version 3.14.

set_encoding(encoding)¶

Parameters:: encoding (GtkSource.Encoding or None) – the new encoding, or None for UTF-8.

Sets the encoding. If encoding is None, the UTF-8 encoding will be set. By default the encoding is taken from the GtkSource.File.

New in version 3.14.

set_flags(flags)¶

Parameters:: flags (GtkSource.FileSaverFlags) – the new flags.

New in version 3.14.

set_newline_type(newline_type)¶

Parameters:: newline_type (GtkSource.NewlineType) – the new newline type.

Sets the newline type. By default the newline type is taken from the GtkSource.File.

New in version 3.14.
