GESExtractable Interface

A GObject that implements the GESExtractable interface can be extracted from a GESAsset using ges_asset_extract.

Each extractable type will have its own way of interpreting the id of an asset (or, if it is associated with a specific subclass of GESAsset, the asset subclass may handle the interpretation of the id). By default, the requested asset id will be ignored by a GESExtractable and will be set to the type name of the extractable instead. Also by default, when the requested asset is extracted, the returned object will simply be a newly created default object of that extractable type. You should check the documentation for each extractable type to see if they differ from the default.

After the object is extracted, it will have a reference to the asset it came from, which you can retrieve using ges_extractable_get_asset.

GESExtractable

GES.Extractable

Methods

ges_extractable_get_asset

GESAsset *
ges_extractable_get_asset (GESExtractable * self)

Get the asset that has been set on the extractable object.

Parameters:

self –

A GESExtractable

Returns ( [transfer: none][nullable]) –

The asset set on self, or NULL if no asset has been set.

GES.Extractable.prototype.get_asset

function GES.Extractable.prototype.get_asset(): {
    // javascript wrapper for 'ges_extractable_get_asset'
}

Get the asset that has been set on the extractable object.

Parameters:

self (GES.Extractable) –

A GES.Extractable

Returns (GES.Asset) –

The asset set on self, or null if no asset has been set.

GES.Extractable.get_asset

def GES.Extractable.get_asset (self):
    #python wrapper for 'ges_extractable_get_asset'

Get the asset that has been set on the extractable object.

Parameters:

self (GES.Extractable) –

A GES.Extractable

Returns (GES.Asset) –

The asset set on self, or None if no asset has been set.

ges_extractable_get_id

gchar *
ges_extractable_get_id (GESExtractable * self)

Gets the id of some associated asset. It may be the case that the object has no set asset, or even that such an asset does not yet exist in the GES cache. Instead, this will return the asset id that is compatible with the current state of the object, as determined by the GESExtractable implementer. If it was indeed extracted from an asset, this should return the same as its corresponding asset id.

Parameters:

self –

A GESExtractable

Returns ( [transfer: full]) –

The id of some associated GESAsset that is compatible with self's current state.

GES.Extractable.prototype.get_id

function GES.Extractable.prototype.get_id(): {
    // javascript wrapper for 'ges_extractable_get_id'
}

Gets the id of some associated asset. It may be the case that the object has no set asset, or even that such an asset does not yet exist in the GES cache. Instead, this will return the asset id that is compatible with the current state of the object, as determined by the GES.Extractable implementer. If it was indeed extracted from an asset, this should return the same as its corresponding asset id.

Parameters:

self (GES.Extractable) –

A GES.Extractable

Returns (String) –

The id of some associated GES.Asset that is compatible with self's current state.

GES.Extractable.get_id

def GES.Extractable.get_id (self):
    #python wrapper for 'ges_extractable_get_id'

Gets the id of some associated asset. It may be the case that the object has no set asset, or even that such an asset does not yet exist in the GES cache. Instead, this will return the asset id that is compatible with the current state of the object, as determined by the GES.Extractable implementer. If it was indeed extracted from an asset, this should return the same as its corresponding asset id.

Parameters:

self (GES.Extractable) –

A GES.Extractable

Returns (str) –

The id of some associated GES.Asset that is compatible with self's current state.

ges_extractable_set_asset

gboolean
ges_extractable_set_asset (GESExtractable * self,
                           GESAsset * asset)

Sets the asset for this extractable object.

When an object is extracted from an asset using ges_asset_extract its asset will be automatically set. Note that many classes that implement GESExtractable will automatically create their objects using assets when you call their new methods. However, you can use this method to associate an object with a compatible asset if it was created by other means and does not yet have an asset. Or, for some implementations of GESExtractable, you can use this to change the asset of the given extractable object, which will lead to a change in its state to match the new asset id.

Parameters:

self –

A GESExtractable

asset ( [transfer: none]) –

The asset to set

Returns –

TRUE if asset could be successfully set on self.

GES.Extractable.prototype.set_asset

function GES.Extractable.prototype.set_asset(asset: GES.Asset): {
    // javascript wrapper for 'ges_extractable_set_asset'
}

Sets the asset for this extractable object.

When an object is extracted from an asset using GES.Asset.prototype.extract its asset will be automatically set. Note that many classes that implement GES.Extractable will automatically create their objects using assets when you call their new methods. However, you can use this method to associate an object with a compatible asset if it was created by other means and does not yet have an asset. Or, for some implementations of GES.Extractable, you can use this to change the asset of the given extractable object, which will lead to a change in its state to match the new asset id.

Parameters:

self (GES.Extractable) –

A GES.Extractable

asset (GES.Asset) –

The asset to set

Returns (Number) –

true if asset could be successfully set on self.

GES.Extractable.set_asset

def GES.Extractable.set_asset (self, asset):
    #python wrapper for 'ges_extractable_set_asset'

Sets the asset for this extractable object.

When an object is extracted from an asset using GES.Asset.extract its asset will be automatically set. Note that many classes that implement GES.Extractable will automatically create their objects using assets when you call their new methods. However, you can use this method to associate an object with a compatible asset if it was created by other means and does not yet have an asset.

asset (GES.Asset) –

The asset to set

Returns (bool) –

True if asset could be successfully set on self.

Virtual Methods

get_id

gchar *
get_id (GESExtractable * self)

The method to fetch the id of some associated asset. Note that it may be the case that the object does not have its asset set, or even that an asset with such an id does not exist in the GES cache. Instead, this should return the id that is compatible with the current state of the object. The default implementation simply returns the currently set asset ID, or the type name of the object, which is what is used as the id by default, if no asset is set.

self –

set_asset

set_asset (GESExtractable * self,
           GESAsset * asset)

This method is called after the GESAsset of an object is set. If your class supports the asset of an object changing, then you can use this method to change the parameters of the object to match the new asset id. If setting the asset should be able to fail, you should implement set_asset_full instead.

Parameters:

self –
