PeasGtkConfigurable

PeasGtkConfigurable — Interface for providing a plugin configuration UI.

Object Hierarchy

    GInterface
    ╰── PeasGtkConfigurable

Prerequisites

PeasGtkConfigurable requires GObject.

Description

The PeasGtkConfigurable interface will allow a plugin to provide a graphical interface for the user to configure the plugin through the PeasGtkPluginManager: the PeasGtkPluginManager will make its “Configure Plugin” button active when the selected plugin implements the PeasGtkConfigurable interface.

To allow plugin configuration from the PeasGtkPluginManager, the plugin writer will just need to implement the PeasGtkConfigurableInterface.create_configure_widget() method.

Functions

peas_gtk_configurable_create_configure_widget ()

GtkWidget *
peas_gtk_configurable_create_configure_widget
                               (PeasGtkConfigurable *configurable);

Creates the configure widget for the plugin. The returned widget should allow configuring all the relevant aspects of the plugin, and should allow instant-apply, as promoted by the Gnome Human Interface Guidelines.

PeasGtkPluginManager will embed the returned widget into a dialog box, but you shouldn't take this behaviour for granted as other implementations of a plugin manager UI might do otherwise.

This method should always return a valid GtkWidget instance, never NULL.

Parameters

configurable

A PeasGtkConfigurable

 

Returns

A GtkWidget used for configuration.
