Detailed Description

A KParts derived class representing a text document.

Topics:

Introduction

The Document class represents a pure text document providing methods to modify the content and create views. A document can have any number of views, each view representing the same content, i.e. all views are synchronized. Support for text selection is handled by a View and text format attributes by the Attribute class.

To load a document call KParts::ReadOnlyPart::openUrl(). To reload a document from a file call documentReload(), to save the document call documentSave() or documentSaveAs(). Whenever the modified state of the document changes the signal modifiedChanged() is emitted. Check the modified state with KParts::ReadWritePart::isModified(). Further signals are documentUrlChanged(). The encoding can be specified with setEncoding(), however this will only take effect on file reload and file save.

Text Manipulation

Get the whole content with text() and set new content with setText(). Call insertText() or insertLine() to insert new text or removeText() and removeLine() to remove content. Whenever the document's content changed the signal textChanged() is emitted. Additional signals are textInserted() and textRemoved(). Note, that the first line in the document is line 0.

A Document provides full undo/redo history. Text manipulation actions can be grouped together to one undo/redo action by using an the class EditingTransaction. You can stack multiple EditingTransactions. Internally, the Document has a reference counter. If this reference counter is increased the first time (by creating an instance of EditingTransaction), the signal editingStarted() is emitted. Only when the internal reference counter reaches zero again, the signal editingFinished() and optionally the signal textChanged() are emitted. Whether an editing transaction is currently active can be checked by calling isEditingTransactionRunning().

Note: The signal editingFinished() is always emitted when the last instance of EditingTransaction is destroyed. Contrary, the signal textChanged() is emitted only if text changed. Hence, textChanged() is more accurate with respect to changes in the Document.

Every text editing transaction is also available through the signals lineWrapped(), lineUnwrapped(), textInserted() and textRemoved(). However, these signals should be used with care. Please be aware of the following warning:

Warning: Never change the Document's contents when edit actions are active, i.e. in between of (foreign) editing transactions. In case you violate this, the currently active edit action may perform edits that lead to undefined behavior.

Document Views

A View displays the document's content. As already mentioned, a document can have any number of views, all synchronized. Get a list of all views with views(). Create a new view with createView(). Every time a new view is created the signal viewCreated() is emitted.

Read-Only Mode

A Document may be in read-only mode, for instance due to missing file permissions. The read-only mode can be checked with isReadWrite(). Further, the signal readWriteChanged() is emitted whenever the state changes either to read-only mode or to read/write mode. The read-only mode can be controlled with setReadWrite().

Notifications in Documents and Views

A Document has the ability to show a Message to the user in a View. The Message then is shown either the specified View if Message::setView() was called, or in all Views of the Document.

To post a message just create a new Message and send it with postMessage(). Further information is available in the API documentation of Message.

See also: Message

Crash Recovery for Documents

When the system or the application using the editor component crashed with unsaved changes in the Document, the View notifies the user about the lost data and asks, whether the data should be recovered.

This Document gives you control over the data recovery process. Use isDataRecoveryAvailable() to check for lost data. If you do not want the editor component to handle the data recovery process automatically, you can either trigger the data recovery by calling recoverData() or discard it through discardDataRecovery().

Document Extension Interfaces

A simple document represents text and provides text manipulation methods. However, a real text editor should support advanced concepts like session support, textsearch support, bookmark/general mark support etc. That is why the KTextEditor library provides several additional interfaces to extend a document's capabilities via multiple inheritance.

More information about interfaces for the document can be found in Document Extension Interfaces.

Member Function Documentation

void KTextEditor::Document::aboutToClose ( KTextEditor::Document * document )

signal

Warn anyone listening that the current document is about to close.

At this point all of the information is still accessible, such as the text, cursors and ranges.

Any modifications made to the document at this point will be lost.

Parameters

document the document being closed

void KTextEditor::Document::aboutToReload ( KTextEditor::Document * document )

signal

Warn anyone listening that the current document is about to reload.

At this point all of the information is still accessible, such as the text, cursors and ranges.

Any modifications made to the document at this point will be lost.

Parameters

document the document being reloaded

virtual QChar KTextEditor::Document::characterAt ( const Cursor & position ) const

pure virtual

Get the character at text position cursor.

Parameters

position the location of the character to retrieve

Returns: the requested character, or QChar() for invalid cursors.

See also: setText()

virtual QByteArray KTextEditor::Document::checksum ( ) const

pure virtual

Get the git hash of the Document's contents on disk.

The returned hash equals the git hash of the file written to disk. If the document is a remote document, the checksum may not be available. In this case, QByteArray::isNull() returns true.

git hash is defined as:

sha1("blob " + filesize + "\0" + filecontent)

Returns: the git hash of the document

virtual bool KTextEditor::Document::clear ( )

pure virtual

Remove the whole content of the document.

Returns: true on success, otherwise false

See also: removeText(), removeLine()

void KTextEditor::Document::configChanged ( KTextEditor::Document * document )

signal

This signal is emitted whenever the current document configuration is changed.

Parameters

document the document which's config has changed

Since: 5.79

virtual View* KTextEditor::Document::createView	(	QWidget *	parent,

virtual DefaultStyle KTextEditor::Document::defaultStyleAt ( const KTextEditor::Cursor & position ) const

pure virtual

Get the default style of the character located at position.

If position is not a valid text position, the default style DefaultStyle::dsNormal is returned.

Note: Further information about the colors of default styles depend on the currently chosen schema. Since each View may have a different color schema, the color information can be obtained through View::defaultStyleAttribute() and View::lineAttributes().

Parameters

pure virtual

Check whether line currently contains only saved text.

Saved text in this case implies that a line was touched at some point by the user and then then changes were either undone or the user saved the file.

In case line was touched and currently contains only saved data, true is returned, otherwise false.

Parameters

line	line to query

See also: isLineModified(), isLineTouched()

Since: 5.0

virtual bool KTextEditor::Document::isLineTouched ( int line ) const

pure virtual

Check whether line was touched since the file was opened.
