Class Details¶

class Infinity.Request¶

Bases:: GObject.GInterface
Structure:: Infinity.RequestInterface

Infinity.Request is an opaque data type. You should only access it via the public API functions.

classmethod error_quark()¶

Returns:: A GQuark.
Return type:: int

Error domain for request errors. Errors in this domain will be from the Infinity.RequestError enumeration. See GLib.Error for information on error domains.

classmethod strerror(code)¶

Parameters:: code (Infinity.RequestError) – An error code from the Infinity.RequestError enumeration.
Returns:: A static string that must not be freed.
Return type:: str

Returns a human-readable string for the given error code.

fail(error)¶

Parameters:: error (GLib.Error) – A GLib.Error describing the reason for why the request failed.

Declares the request as failed by emitting the Infinity.Request ::finished signal with the given error.

finish(result)¶

Parameters:: result (Infinity.RequestResult) – A Infinity.RequestResult containing the result of the request.

Declares the request as succeeded by emitting the Infinity.Request ::finished signal with the given result. The function takes ownership of result.

is_local()¶

Returns:: True if the request is local and False if it is remote.
Return type:: bool

Returns whether self is local or remote. A local request was triggered by a local API call, whereas a remote request was caused by a remote participant from the network.

do_finished(result, error) virtual¶

Parameters:

result (Infinity.RequestResult) –
error (GLib.Error) –

do_is_local() virtual¶

Returns:: True if the request is local and False if it is remote.
Return type:: bool

Returns whether request is local or remote. A local request was triggered by a local API call, whereas a remote request was caused by a remote participant from the network.

Signal Details¶

Infinity.Request.signals.finished(request, result, error)¶

Signal Name:

finished

Flags:

RUN_LAST

Parameters:

request (Infinity.Request) – The object which received the signal
result (Infinity.RequestResult) – A Infinity.RequestResult which contains the result of the request.
error (GLib.Error) – Error information in case the request failed, or None otherwise.

This signal is emitted when the request finishes. If error is non-None the request failed, otherwise it finished successfully.

Property Details¶

Infinity.Request.props.progress¶

Name:: progress
Type:: float
Default Value:: 0.0
Flags:: READABLE

Percentage of completion of the request

Infinity.Request.props.type¶

Name:: type
Type:: str
Default Value:: None
Flags:: READABLE, WRITABLE, CONSTRUCT_ONLY

A string identifier for the type of the request
