-Adding Mime-Type Sensitive Context Menus to Nautilus
-November 10, 2002
-James Willcox <jwillcox@gnome.org>
-
-Ok, this is how it works:
-
-1) User selects one or more files in the icon or list view
-
-2) Nautilus queries bonobo-activation for all components that have the
- following properties:
-
- a) Has an attribute named "nautilus:context_menu_handler", which is
- a boolean.
- b) Has an attribute named "nautilus:can_handle_multiple_files", which
- is also a boolean (I think its meaning is self explanatory)
- c) Implements IDL:Bonobo/Listener:1.0
-
- Also, the normal nautilus component selection rules apply here, so it
- will look at it bonobo:supported_mime_types,
- bonobo:supported_uri_schemes, etc. as well.
-
-3) Then, we look at each component, and find all attributes that start with
- "nautilusverb:". The part following the colon will be the event name that
- gets passed to Bonobo::Listener::event(). The value of this attribute is
- the text that should be displayed in the menu item. So, you might have
- something like the following for unpacking an archive:
-
- <oaf_attribute name="nautilusverb:DoExtract" type="string" _value="Extract To..."/>
-
- To specify an icon to display next to the context menu, you can
- specify a nautilusverbicon property:
-
- <oaf_attribute name="nautilusverbicon:DoExtract" type="string" _value="icon-name"/>
-
- The icon will be taken from the current icon theme.
-
- If the component has "nauitlus:can_handle_multiple_files" set to false,
- the item will still be displayed when multiple files are selected, but
- it will be insensitive. When the user clicks the menu item, nautilus
- activates the component, and invoked Bonobo::Listener::event() on it,
- passing the event name and a CORBA sequence of the selected URIs as the
- args.
