ItemFetchScope Class Reference

from PyKDE4.akonadi import *

Namespace: Akonadi

Detailed Description

Specifies which parts of an item should be fetched from the Akonadi storage.

When items are fetched from server either by using ItemFetchJob explicitly or when it is being used internally by other classes, e.g. ItemModel, the scope of the fetch operation can be tailored to the application's current needs.

There are two supported ways of changing the currently active ItemFetchScope of classes: - in-place: modify the ItemFetchScope object the other class holds as a member - replace: replace the other class' member with a new scope object

Example: modifying an ItemFetchJob's scope in-place

 Akonadi.ItemFetchJob *job = new Akonadi.ItemFetchJob( collection );
 job->fetchScope().fetchFullPayload();
 job->fetchScope().fetchAttribute<MyAttribute>();

Example: replacing an ItemFetchJob's scope

 Akonadi.ItemFetchScope scope;
 scope.fetchFullPayload();
 scope.fetchAttribute<MyAttribute>();

 Akonadi.ItemFetchJob *job = new Akonadi.ItemFetchJob( collection );
 job->setFetchScope( scope );

This class is implicitly shared.

Method Documentation

__init__ (   self )

Creates an empty item fetch scope.

Using an empty scope will only fetch the very basic meta data of items, e.g. local id, remote id and mime type

__init__ (  self,
Akonadi.ItemFetchScope  other
)

Creates a new item fetch scope from an other.

bool allAttributes (   self )

Returns whether all available attributes should be fetched.

See also:
fetchAllAttributes()

Akonadi.ItemFetchScope.AncestorRetrieval ancestorRetrieval (   self )

Returns the ancestor retrieval depth.

See also:
setAncestorRetrieval()
Since:
4.4

QSet attributes (   self )

Returns all explicitly fetched attributes.

Undefined if fetchAllAttributes() returns true.

See also:
fetchAttribute()

bool cacheOnly (   self )

Returns whether payload data should be requested from remote sources or just from the local cache.

See also:
setCacheOnly()

fetchAllAttributes (  self,
bool  fetch=1
)

Sets whether all available attributes should be fetched. The default is false.

Parameters:
fetch  true if all available attributes should be fetched, false otherwise.

fetchAttribute (  self,
QByteArray  type,
bool  fetch=1
)

Sets whether the attribute of the requested type should be fetched.

Parameters:
fetch  true if the attribute should be fetched, false otherwise.

fetchFullPayload (  self,
bool  fetch=1
)

Sets whether the full payload shall be fetched. The default is false.

Parameters:
fetch  true if the full payload should be fetched, false otherwise.

bool fetchModificationTime (   self )

Returns whether item modification time should be retrieved.

See also:
setFetchModificationTime()
Since:
4.6

fetchPayloadPart (  self,
QByteArray  part,
bool  fetch=1
)

Sets which payload parts shall be fetched.

Parameters:
part  The payload part identifier. Valid values depend on the item type.
fetch  true to fetch this part, false otherwise.

bool fullPayload (   self )

Returns whether the full payload should be fetched.

See also:
fetchFullPayload()

bool isEmpty (   self )

Returns true if there is nothing to fetch.

QSet payloadParts (   self )

Returns the payload parts that should be fetched.

See also:
fetchPayloadPart()

setAncestorRetrieval (  self,
Akonadi.ItemFetchScope.AncestorRetrieval  ancestorDepth
)

Sets how many levels of ancestor collections should be included in the retrieval. The default is AncestorRetrieval.None.

Parameters:
ancestorDepth  The desired ancestor retrieval depth.

Since:
4.4

setCacheOnly (  self,
bool  cacheOnly
)

Sets whether payload data should be requested from remote sources or just from the local cache.

Parameters:
cacheOnly  true if no remote data should be requested,

false otherwise (the default).

setFetchModificationTime (  self,
bool  retrieveMtime
)

Enables retrieval of the item modification time. This is enabled by default for backward compatibility reasons.

Parameters:
retrieveMtime  true to retrieve the modification time, false otherwise

Since:
4.6
