Method Documentation

__init__ (   self )

This overloaded constructor allows you to set the Mode to ExeCompletion or FileCompletion without using setMode. Default is FileCompletion.

__init__ (  self,
KUrlCompletion.Mode  a0
)

This overloaded constructor allows you to set the Mode to ExeCompletion or FileCompletion without using setMode. Default is FileCompletion.

customEvent (  self,
QEvent  e
)
QString dir (   self )

Returns the current directory, as it was given in setDir

Returns:
the current directory (path or URL)

bool isRunning (   self )

Check whether asynchronous completion is in progress.

Returns:
true if asynchronous completion is in progress

QString makeCompletion (  self,
QString  text
)

Finds completions to the given text.

Remote URLs are listed with KIO. For performance reasons, local files are listed with KIO only if KURLCOMPLETION_LOCAL_KIO is set. The completion is done asyncronously if KIO is used.

Returns the first match for user, environment, and local dir completion and QString() for asynchronous completion (KIO or threaded).

Parameters:
text  the text to complete

Returns:
the first match, or QString() if not found

KUrlCompletion.Mode mode (   self )

Returns the completion mode: exe or file completion (default FileCompletion).

Returns:
the completion mode

postProcessMatch (  self,
QString  match
)
postProcessMatches (  self,
QStringList  matches
)
bool replaceEnv (   self )

Checks whether environment variables are completed and whether they are replaced internally while finding completions. Default is enabled.

Returns:
true if environment vvariables will be replaced

bool replaceHome (   self )

Returns whether ~username is completed and whether ~username is replaced internally with the user's home directory while finding completions. Default is enabled.

Returns:
true to replace tilde with the home directory

QString replacedPath (  self,
QString  text
)

Internal:
I'll let ossi add a real one to KShell :)

setDir (  self,
QString  dir
)

Sets the current directory (used as base for completion). Default = $HOME.

Parameters:
dir  the current directory, either as a path or URL

setMode (  self,
KUrlCompletion.Mode  mode
)

Changes the completion mode: exe or file completion

Parameters:
mode  the new completion mode

setReplaceEnv (  self,
bool  replace
)

Enables/disables completion and replacement (internally) of environment variables in URLs. Default is enabled.

Parameters:
replace  true to replace environment variables

setReplaceHome (  self,
bool  replace
)

Enables/disables completion of ~username and replacement (internally) of ~username with the user's home directory. Default is enabled.

Parameters:
replace  true to replace tilde with the home directory

stop (   self )

Stops asynchronous completion.

Enumeration Documentation

Mode

Determines how completion is done.

  • ExeCompletion - executables in $PATH or with full path.
  • FileCompletion - all files with full path or in dir(), URLs
  • are listed using KIO.
  • DirCompletion - Same as FileCompletion but only returns directories.
