Includes

#include <gdata/gdata-parsable.h>

Description

GDataParsable is an abstract class allowing easy implementation of an extensible parser. It is primarily extended by GDataFeed and GDataEntry, both of which require XML parsing which can be extended by subclassing.

It allows methods to be defined for handling the root XML node, each of its child nodes, and a method to be called after parsing is complete.

Functions

gdata_parsable_get_content_type ()

const gchar *
gdata_parsable_get_content_type (GDataParsable *self);

Returns the content type upon which the GDataParsable is built. For example, application/atom+xml or application/json.

Parameters

self

a GDataParsable

 

Returns

the parsable's content type

Since: 0.17.7


gdata_parsable_new_from_xml ()

GDataParsable *
gdata_parsable_new_from_xml (GType parsable_type,
                             const gchar *xml,
                             gint length,
                             GError **error);

Creates a new GDataParsable subclass (of the given parsable_type ) from the given xml .

An object of the given parsable_type is created, and its pre_parse_xml, parse_xml and post_parse_xml class functions called on the XML tree obtained from xml . pre_parse_xml and post_parse_xml are called once each on the root node of the tree, while parse_xml is called for each of the child nodes of the root node.

If length is -1, xml will be assumed to be null-terminated.

If an error occurs during parsing, a suitable error from GDataParserError will be returned.

Parameters

parsable_type

the type of the class represented by the XML

 

xml

the XML for just the parsable object, with full namespace declarations

 

length

the length of xml , or -1

 

error

a GError, or NULL

 

Returns

a new GDataParsable, or NULL; unref with g_object_unref()

Since: 0.4.0


gdata_parsable_get_xml ()

gchar *
gdata_parsable_get_xml (GDataParsable *self);

Builds an XML representation of the GDataParsable in its current state, such that it could be inserted on the server. The XML is guaranteed to have all its namespaces declared properly in a self-contained fashion, and is valid for stand-alone use.

Parameters

self

a GDataParsable

 

Returns

the object's XML; free with g_free()

Since: 0.4.0


gdata_parsable_new_from_json ()

GDataParsable *
gdata_parsable_new_from_json (GType parsable_type,
                              const gchar *json,
                              gint length,
                              GError **error);

Creates a new GDataParsable subclass (of the given parsable_type ) from the given json .

An object of the given parsable_type is created, and its parse_json and post_parse_json class functions called on the JSON node obtained from json . post_parse_json is called once on the root node, while parse_json is called for each of the node's members.

If length is -1, json will be assumed to be nul-terminated.

If an error occurs during parsing, a suitable error from GDataParserError will be returned.

Parameters

parsable_type

the type of the class represented by the JSON

 

json

the JSON for just the parsable object

 

length

the length of json , or -1

 

error

a GError, or NULL

 

Returns

a new GDataParsable, or NULL; unref with g_object_unref()

Since: 0.15.0


gdata_parsable_get_json ()

gchar *
gdata_parsable_get_json (GDataParsable *self);

Builds a JSON representation of the GDataParsable in its current state, such that it could be inserted on the server. The JSON is valid for stand-alone use.

Parameters

self

a GDataParsable

 

Returns

the object's JSON; free with g_free()

Since: 0.15.0

Types and Values

GDataParsable

typedef struct _GDataParsable GDataParsable;

All the fields in the GDataParsable structure are private and should never be accessed directly.

Since: 0.3.0


GDataParsableClass

typedef struct {
	GObjectClass parent;

	gboolean (*pre_parse_xml) (GDataParsable *parsable, xmlDoc *doc, xmlNode *root_node, gpointer user_data, GError **error);
	gboolean (*parse_xml) (GDataParsable *parsable, xmlDoc *doc, xmlNode *node, gpointer user_data, GError **error);
	gboolean (*post_parse_xml) (GDataParsable *parsable, gpointer user_data, GError **error);

	void (*pre_get_xml) (GDataParsable *parsable, GString *xml_string);
	void (*get_xml) (GDataParsable *parsable, GString *xml_string);
	void (*get_namespaces) (GDataParsable *parsable, GHashTable *namespaces);

	gboolean (*parse_json) (GDataParsable *parsable, JsonReader *reader, gpointer user_data, GError **error);
	gboolean (*post_parse_json) (GDataParsable *parsable, gpointer user_data, GError **error);
	void (*get_json) (GDataParsable *parsable, JsonBuilder *builder);

	const gchar *(*get_content_type) (void);

	const gchar *element_name;
	const gchar *element_namespace;
} GDataParsableClass;

The class structure for the GDataParsable class. Note that JSON and XML functions are mutually exclusive: a given implementation of GDataParsable is represented as exactly one of JSON and XML.

Members

GObjectClass parent;

the parent class

 

pre_parse_xml ()

a function called before parsing of an XML tree is started, which allows properties from the root node to be extracted and used in parsable

 

parse_xml ()

a function to parse an XML representation of the GDataParsable to set the properties of the parsable

 

post_parse_xml ()

a function called after parsing an XML tree, to allow the parsable to validate the parsed properties

 

pre_get_xml ()

a function called before building the XML representation of the children of the GDataParsable, which allows attributes of the root XML node to be added to xml_string

 

get_xml ()

a function to build an XML representation of the GDataParsable in its current state, appending it to the provided GString

 

get_namespaces ()

a function to return a string containing the namespace declarations used by the parsable when represented in XML form

 

parse_json ()

a function to parse a JSON representation of the GDataParsable to set the properties of the parsable

 

post_parse_json ()

a function called after parsing a JSON object, to allow the parsable to validate the parsed properties

 

get_json ()

a function to build a JSON representation of the GDataParsable in its current state, appending it to the provided JsonBuilder

 

get_content_type ()

a function which returns content type upon which is GDataParsable built

 

const gchar *element_name;

the name of the XML element which represents this parsable

 

const gchar *element_namespace;

the prefix of the XML namespace used for the parsable
