ScriptableExtension Class Reference

from PyKDE4.kparts import *

Inherits: QObject
Namespace: KParts

Detailed Description

An extension class that permits KParts to be scripted (such as when embedded inside a KHTMLPart) and to access the host's scriptable objects as well.

See ScriptValueTypes for how values are passed to/from various methods here.

Method Documentation

__init__ (  self,
QObject  parent
)

Values are passed to and from scriptable methods or properties as QVariants. Valid values may be bools, strings, and numbers (doubles), as well as the following custom types:

  • Null
  • Undefined
  • Exception
  • Object
  • FunctionRef
  • All of these other than Object and FunctionRef also provide DBus marshallers. These are registered when ScriptableExtension.registerDBusTypes() is called, which is in particular done by ScriptableExtension constructor.

    acquire (  self,
    long  objid
    )

    increases reference count of object objId

    QVariant callAsConstructor (  self,
    KParts.ScriptableExtension  callerPrincipal,
    long  objId,
    [QVariant]  args
    )

    Try to use the object objId associated with 'this' as a constructor (corresponding to ECMAScript's new foo(bar, baz, glarch) expression).

    QVariant callAsFunction (  self,
    KParts.ScriptableExtension  callerPrincipal,
    long  objId,
    [QVariant]  args
    )

    Try to use the object objId associated with 'this' as a function.

    QVariant callFunctionReference (  self,
    KParts.ScriptableExtension  callerPrincipal,
    long  objId,
    QString  f,
    [QVariant]  args
    )

    Try to use a function reference to field f of object @objId as a function

    QVariant enclosingObject (   self )

    Returns an object that represents the host()'s view of us. For example, if the host is an HTML part, it would return a DOM node of an <object> handled by this part. May be undefined or null

    Implemented in terms of objectForKid

    bool enumerateProperties (  self,
    KParts.ScriptableExtension  callerPrincipal,
    long  objId,
    QStringList  result
    )

    Tries to enumerate all fields of object objId associated with this to result. Returns true on success

    QVariant evaluateScript (  self,
    KParts.ScriptableExtension  callerPrincipal,
    long  contextObjectId,
    QString  code,
    KParts.ScriptableExtension.ScriptLanguage  language=KParts.ScriptableExtension.ECMAScript
    )

    Tries to evaluate a script code with the given object as its context. The parameter language specifies the language to execute it as. Use isScriptLanguageSupported to check for support.

    QVariant get (  self,
    KParts.ScriptableExtension  callerPrincipal,
    long  objId,
    QString  propName
    )

    Tries to get field propName from object objId associated with 'this'.

    bool hasProperty (  self,
    KParts.ScriptableExtension  callerPrincipal,
    long  objId,
    QString  propName
    )

    Returns true if the object objId associated with 'this' has the property propName.

    KParts.ScriptableExtension host (   self )

    Returns any registered parent scripting context. May be 0 if setHost was not called (or not call yet).

    bool isScriptLanguageSupported (  self,
    KParts.ScriptableExtension.ScriptLanguage  lang
    )

    returns true if this extension can execute scripts in the given language

    bool put (  self,
    KParts.ScriptableExtension  callerPrincipal,
    long  objId,
    QString  propName,
    QVariant  value
    )

    Tries to set the field propName from object objId associated with 'this' to value. Returns true on success

    release (  self,
    long  objid
    )

    decreases reference count of object objId

    bool removeProperty (  self,
    KParts.ScriptableExtension  callerPrincipal,
    long  objId,
    QString  propName
    )

    Tries to remove the field d propName from object objId associated with 'this'. Returns true on success

    QVariant rootObject (   self )

    Return the root scriptable object of this KPart. For example for an HTML part, it would represent a Window object. May be undefined or null

    bool setException (  self,
    KParts.ScriptableExtension  callerPrincipal,
    QString  message
    )

    Tries to raise an exception with given message in this extension's scripting context. Returns true on success

    setHost (  self,
    KParts.ScriptableExtension  host
    )

    Reports the hosting ScriptableExtension to a child. It's the responsibility of a parent part to call this method on all of its kids' ScriptableExtensions as soon as possible.


    Static Method Documentation

    KParts.ScriptableExtension adapterFromLiveConnect ( QObject  parentObj,
    KParts.LiveConnectExtension  oldApi
    )

    This returns a bridge object that permits KParts implementing the older LiveConnectExtension to be used via the ScriptableExtension API. The bridge's parent will be the parentObj.

    KParts.ScriptableExtension childObject ( QObject  obj
    )

    Queries obj for a child object which inherits from this ScriptableExtension class. Convenience method.

    registerDBusTypes (   )

    Registers dbus encodings of Null, Undefined, and Exception. This is called by the ScriptableExtension constructor, so you likely will not need to do so yourself
