Module: the file in which your plugin is located (leaving out the extension. Loader: which loader gedit needs to use for Python plugins this is python plugin file which will give gedit information about our new plugin.Ĭopyright=Copyright © 2006 Jesse van den Kieboom As stated in Files needed we first need to create a. Now we are ready to actually write a plugin.
#Gedit python format update#
Gedit.ViewActivatable: do_activate will happen when a new view is created or for each view that it is already created in the window, do_deactivate will happen when a view is destroyed or when the plugin is disabled, and do_update_state will be called when it is requested to update the UI. Gedit.WindowActivatable: do_activate will happen when a new window is created or for each window that it is already created in the instance, do_deactivate will happen when a window is destroyed or when the plugin is disabled, and do_update_state will be called when when it is requested to update the UI.
#Gedit python format windows#
Gedit.AppActivatable: do_activate will happen when a new instance is created (i.e launching gedit for the first time) or for each instance that it is already running and do_deactivate will be called when all windows of gedit are destroyed (so the main instance is destroyed) or when the plugin is disabled. When a plugin is activated, all "activate" methods from the extension points will be called, and when the plugin is deactivated the "deactivate" methods from all extension points will be called. I.e the snippets plugin uses a Gedit.Document and the toplevel of this is a Gtk.Dialog and not a Gedit.Window. Implementing a Gedit.ViewActivatable does not mean that it will be only used by Gedit.Window objects. Finally you can implement Gedit.ViewActivatable if you want to manage either the Gedit.View or the Gedit.Document. For each window one Gedit.WindowActivatable extension point from the plugins will be created, (for example, to add new menu items or share information between tabs and windows). This is useful to implement in case you need to share some data across different windows. For each instance one extension point of the Gedit.AppActivatable implemented by the plugins will be created. Gedit is an application which usually only runs one instance, even if you launch it several times. Gedit.ViewActivatable: WindowActivatable and ViewActivatable provide: do_activate, do_deactivate and do_update_state Gedit.AppActivatable: This extension provides two methods to be overriden: do_activate, do_deactivate Each extension is derived from GObject.Object and must implement one of the interfaces that gedit provides for the extension points. A Python plugin will be able to have one or more extensions. It is important to read this section carefully. This section gives some tips to try to understand the way gedit plugins work. Both of these files need to be placed in either the system-wide plugins directory /usr/lib/gedit/plugins/, or in the user plugins directory, which may need to be created, ~/.local/share/gedit/plugins/. The second file is the actual Python code. One file ( ugin) is to tell gedit where the plugin can be found, what it's called, a short description, who is the author, etc.
Adding a configure dialog for your pluginĮvery Python plugin needs at least two files.
