grl_pls_browse ()

guint
grl_pls_browse (GrlSource *source,
                GrlMedia *playlist,
                const GList *keys,
                GrlOperationOptions *options,
                GrlPlsFilterFunc filter_func,
                GrlSourceResultCb callback,
                gpointer user_data);

Browse into a playlist. The playlist entries are returned via the callback function as GrlMedia objects. This function imitates the API and way of working of grl_source_browse.

The playlist provided could be of any GrlMedia class, as long as its URI points to a valid playlist file.

This function is asynchronous.

See grl_source_browse() function for additional information and sample code.

Parameters

source

a source

 

playlist

a playlist

 

keys

the GList of GrlKeyIDs to request.

[element-type GrlKeyID]

options

options wanted for that operation

 

filter_func

A filter function, or NULL.

[scope async][allow-none]

callback

the user defined callback.

[scope notified]

user_data

the user data to pass in the callback

 

Returns

the operation identifier

grl_pls_browse_sync ()

GList *
grl_pls_browse_sync (GrlSource *source,
                     GrlMedia *playlist,
                     const GList *keys,
                     GrlOperationOptions *options,
                     GrlPlsFilterFunc filter_func,
                     GError **error);

Browse into a playlist. The playlist entries are returned via the callback function as GrlMedia objects. This function imitates the API and way of working of grl_source_browse_sync.

The filter function filter_func will be used for plugins or applications to be able to refuse particular entries from being listed.

If a NULL filter function is passed, the media will be added with only the metadata coming from the playlist included.

This function is synchronous.

See grl_source_browse_sync() function for additional information and sample code.

Parameters

source

a source

 

playlist

a playlist

 

keys

the GList of GrlKeyIDs to request.

[element-type GrlKeyID]

filter_func

A filter function, or NULL.

[scope async][allow-none]

options

options wanted for that operation

 

error

a GError, or NULL

 

Returns

a GList with GrlMedia elements. After use g_object_unref() every element and g_list_free() the list.

grl_pls_browse_by_spec ()

void
grl_pls_browse_by_spec (GrlSource *source,
                        GrlPlsFilterFunc filter_func,
                        GrlSourceBrowseSpec *bs);

Browse into a playlist. The playlist entries are returned via the bs->callback function as GrlMedia objects. This function is more suitable to be called from plugins, which by design get the GrlSourceBrowseSpec already filled in.

The bs->playlist provided could be of any GrlMedia class, as long as its URI points to a valid playlist file.

This function is asynchronous.

See grl_pls_browse() and grl_source_browse() function for additional information and sample code.

Parameters

source

a source

 

filter_func

A filter function, or NULL.

[scope async][allow-none]

bs

a GrlSourceBrowseSpec structure with details of the browsing operation

                       GFileInfo *info,
                       gboolean handle_pls,
                       GrlOperationOptions *options);

This function will update (if content is non-NULL) or create a GrlMedia and populate it with information from info .

file

a GFile pointing to the file or directory in question

 

info

an existing GFileInfo, or NULL

 

handle_pls
