`create-source-mount`	Emitted when a new mount is added to allow plugins to create a corresponding `RB.Source`.

Class Details¶

class RB.RemovableMediaManager(**kwargs)¶

Bases:: GObject.Object
Abstract:: No
Structure:: RB.RemovableMediaManagerClass

classmethod new(shell)¶

Parameters:: shell (RB.Shell) – the RB.Shell
Returns:: the RB.RemovableMediaManager
Return type:: RB.RemovableMediaManager

Creates the RB.RemovableMediaManager instance.

device_is_android(device)¶

Parameters:: device (GObject.Object) – the #GUdevDevice to query
Returns:: True if the device appears to be Android-based
Return type:: bool

Determines whether the specified device looks like an Android device.

get_gudev_device(volume)¶

Parameters:: volume (Gio.Volume) – the Gio.Volume
Returns:: the #GUDevDevice instance, if any
Return type:: GObject.Object

Finds the #GUdevDevice for the volume.

scan()¶: Initiates a new scan of all attached media. Newly activated plugins that use the create-source-volume or create-source-mount signals should call this if the ‘scanned’ property is True. Otherwise, the first scan will catch any existing volumes or mounts that the plugin is interested in.

do_medium_added(source) virtual¶

Parameters:: source (RB.Source) –

Signal Details¶

RB.RemovableMediaManager.signals.create_source_device(removable_media_manager, device)¶

Signal Name:

create-source-device

Flags:

RUN_LAST

Parameters:

removable_media_manager (RB.RemovableMediaManager) – The object which received the signal
device (GObject.Object) – the device (actually a #GUdevDevice)

Returns:

a source for the device, or None

Return type:

RB.Source

Emitted when a new device is detected to allow plugins to create a corresponding RB.Source. The first signal handler that returns a source wins. Plugins should only use this signal if there will be no Gio.Volume or Gio.Mount created for the device.

RB.RemovableMediaManager.signals.create_source_mount(removable_media_manager, device_info, mount)¶

Signal Name:

create-source-mount

Flags:

RUN_LAST

Parameters:

removable_media_manager (RB.RemovableMediaManager) – The object which received the signal
device_info (Gio.Mount) – a MPID.Device containing information on the device
mount (MPID.Device) – the Gio.Mount

Returns:

a source for the mount, or None

Return type:

RB.Source

Emitted when a new mount is added to allow plugins to create a corresponding RB.Source. The first signal handler that returns a source wins. If a source was created for the Gio.Volume for a mount, then this signal will not be emitted.

RB.RemovableMediaManager.signals.create_source_volume(removable_media_manager, volume)¶

Signal Name:

create-source-volume

Flags:

RUN_LAST

Parameters:

removable_media_manager (RB.RemovableMediaManager) – The object which received the signal
volume (Gio.Volume) – the Gio.Volume

Returns:

a source for the volume, or None

Return type:

RB.Source

Emitted when a new volume is added to allow plugins to create a corresponding RB.Source. The first signal handler that returns a source wins. A plugin should only use this signal if it doesn’t require the volume to be mounted. If the volume must be mounted to be useful, use the create-source-mount signal instead.

RB.RemovableMediaManager.signals.medium_added(removable_media_manager, source)¶

Signal Name:

medium-added

Flags:

RUN_LAST

Parameters:

removable_media_manager (RB.RemovableMediaManager) – The object which received the signal
source (GObject.Object) – the newly added RB.Source

Emitted when a new source is added for a removable medium.

Property Details¶

RB.RemovableMediaManager.props.scanned¶

Name:: scanned
Type:: bool
Default Value:: False
Flags:: READABLE

This is set to True when the removable media manager has scanned all existing volumes and mounts. When a plugin that handles removable media is activated, it should request a new scan if this property is already set to True.

RB.RemovableMediaManager.props.shell¶

Name:: shell
Type:: RB.Shell
Default Value:: None
Flags:: READABLE, WRITABLE, CONSTRUCT_ONLY

The RB.Shell instance.
