Signal Documentation

permanentRedirection ( KIO.Job  job,
KUrl  fromUrl,
KUrl  toUrl
)

Signals a permanent redirection. The redirection itself is handled internally.

Parameters:
job  the job that is redirected
fromUrl  the original URL
toUrl  the new URL

Signal syntax:
QObject.connect(source, SIGNAL("permanentRedirection(KIO::Job*, const KUrl&, const KUrl&)"), target_slot)
redirection ( KIO.Job  job,
KUrl  url
)

Signals a redirection. Use to update the URL shown to the user. The redirection itself is handled internally.

Parameters:
job  the job that is redirected
url  the new url

Signal syntax:
QObject.connect(source, SIGNAL("redirection(KIO::Job*, const KUrl&)"), target_slot)

Method Documentation

__init__ (   self )
KUrl mostLocalUrl (   self )

most local URL Call this in the slot connected to result, and only after making sure no error happened.

Returns:
the most local URL for the URL we were stat'ing.

Sample usage:

KIO.StatJob* job = KIO.mostLocalUrl("desktop:/foo");
job->ui()->setWindow(this);
connect(job, SIGNAL(result(KJob*)), this, SLOT(slotMostLocalUrlResult(KJob*)));
[...]
// and in the slot
if (job->error()) {
[...] // doesn't exist
} else {
const KUrl localUrl = job->mostLocalUrl();
// localUrl = file:$HOME/Desktop/foo
[...]
}

Since:
4.4

setDetails (  self,
int  details
)

Selects the level of details we want. By default this is 2 (all details wanted, including modification time, size, etc.), setDetails(1) is used when deleting: we don't need all the information if it takes too much time, no need to follow symlinks etc. setDetails(0) is used for very simple probing: we'll only get the answer "it's a file or a directory, or it doesn't exist". This is used by KRun.

Parameters:
details  2 for all details, 1 for simple, 0 for very simple

setSide (  self,
KIO.StatJob.StatSide  side
)

A stat() can have two meanings. Either we want to read from this URL, or to check if we can write to it. First case is "source", second is "dest". It is necessary to know what the StatJob is for, to tune the kioslave's behavior (e.g. with FTP).

Parameters:
source  true for "source" mode, false for "dest" mode

setSide (  self,
bool  source
)

A stat() can have two meanings. Either we want to read from this URL, or to check if we can write to it. First case is "source", second is "dest". It is necessary to know what the StatJob is for, to tune the kioslave's behavior (e.g. with FTP).

Parameters:
source  true for "source" mode, false for "dest" mode

slotFinished (   self )
slotMetaData (  self,
KIO.MetaData  _metaData
)
KIO.UDSEntry statResult (   self )

Result of the stat operation. Call this in the slot connected to result, and only after making sure no error happened.

Returns:
the result of the stat
