This interface is available in PyGTK 2.4 and above.
gtk.FileChooser
is an interface that can be implemented by file selection widgets. In PyGTK,
the main objects that implement this interface are gtk.FileChooserWidget
and gtk.FileChooserDialog
. You
do not need to write an object that implements the gtk.FileChooser
interface unless you are trying to adapt an existing file selector to expose
a standard programming interface.
gtk.FileChooser
has several elements to its display:
a list of shortcut folders on the left that is divided into two lists by a horizontal line:
add_shortcut_folder
()
or add_shortcut_folder_uri
()
methods.When the user is finished selecting files in a gtk.FileChooser
,
your program can get the selected names either as filenames or as
URIs. For URIs, the normal escaping rules are applied if the URI
contains non-ASCII characters. However, filenames are always returned
in the character set specified by the result of calling the Python
sys.getfilesystemencoding() function. On POSIX this is the actual
on-disk encoding which might correspond to the locale settings of the
process, or not. On Windows the file name encoding is UTF-8. Note that
the Microsoft C library does not use UTF-8, but has separate APIs for
current system code page and wide characters (UTF-16).
This means that while you can pass the result of get_filename
()
to open() or os.open(), you may not be able to directly set it as
the text of a gtk.Label
widget unless you convert it first to UTF-8, which all PyGTK widgets
expect. If necessary you should use the Python codecs to convert
filenames into strings that can be passed to PyGTK widgets.
You can add a custom preview widget to a file chooser and get
notification when the preview needs to be updated. To install a preview
widget, use the set_preview_widget
()
method. Then, connect to the "update-preview" signal to be notified when
you need to update the contents of the preview.
Your callback should use the get_preview_filename
()
method to see what needs previewing. Once you have generated the preview for
the corresponding file, you must call the set_preview_widget_active
()
method with a boolean flag that indicates whether your callback could
successfully generate a preview. An example use of a custom preview
is:
... preview = gtk.Image() my_file_chooser.set_preview_widget(preview) my_file_chooser.connect("update-preview", update_preview_cb, preview) ... def update_preview_cb(file_chooser, preview): filename = file_chooser.get_preview_filename() try: pixbuf = gtk.gdk.pixbuf_new_from_file_at_size(filename, 128, 128) preview.set_from_pixbuf(pixbuf) have_preview = True except: have_preview = False file_chooser.set_preview_widget_active(have_preview) return ...
You can add extra widgets to a file chooser to provide options
that are not present in the default design. For example, you can add a gtk.ToggleButton
to give the user the option to open a file in read-only mode. You can use
the set_extra_widget
()
method to insert additional widgets in a file chooser. For example:
toggle = gtk.CheckButton("Open file read-only") toggle.show () my_file_chooser.set_extra_widget(toggle)
If you want to set more than one extra widget in the file
chooser, you can use a container such as a gtk.VBox
or a gtk.Table
to hold
your widgets; then set the container as the whole extra widget.
The gtk.FileChooserDialog
uses the private GtkFileChooserDefaultClass
that has
several key bindings and their associated signals. This section describes
the available key binding signals.
The default keys that activate the key-binding signals in GtkFileChooserDefaultClass are as follows:
Signal name | Key |
---|---|
location-popup | Control-L |
up-folder | Alt-Up |
down-folder | Alt-Down |
home-folder | Alt-Home |
To change these defaults to something else, you could include
the following fragment in your .gtkrc-2.0
file:
binding "my-own-gtkfilechooser-bindings" { bind "<Alt><Shift>l" { "location-popup" () } bind "<Alt><Shift>Up" { "up-folder" () } bind "<Alt><Shift>Down" { "down-folder" () } bind "<Alt><Shift>Home" { "home-folder-folder" () } } class "GtkFileChooserDefault" binding "my-own-gtkfilechooser-bindings"
The "GtkFileChooserDefault::location-popup" signal is used to make the file chooser show a "Location" dialog which the user can use to manually type the name of the file he wishes to select. By default this is bound to Control+L.
def location_popup_cb(filechooser, user_data):
where filechooser
is the gtk.FileChooser
that received the signal, user_data
is user data set
when the signal handler was connected.
The "GtkFileChooserDefault::up-folder" signal is used to make the file chooser go to the parent of the current folder in the file hierarchy. By default this is bound to Alt+Up.
def up_folder_cb(filechooser, user_data):
where filechooser
is the object that
received the signal and user_data
is the user data
set when the signal handler was connected.
The "GtkFileChooserDefault::down-folder" signal is used to make the file chooser go to a child of the current folder in the file hierarchy. The subfolder that will be used is displayed in the path bar widget of the file chooser. For example, if the path bar is showing "/foo/bar/baz", then this will cause the file chooser to switch to the "baz" subfolder. By default this is bound to Alt+Down.
def down_folder_cb(filechooser, user_data):
where filechooser
is the object that
received the signal and user_data
is the user data
set when the signal handler was connected.
The "GtkFileChooserDefault::home-folder" signal is used to make the file chooser show the user's home folder in the file list. By default this is bound to Alt+Home.
def home_folder_cb(filechooser, user_data):
where filechooser
is the object that
received the signal and user_data
is the user data
set when the signal handler was connected.
def set_action(action
)
| the file selection action - one of:
gtk.FILE_CHOOSER_ACTION_OPEN ,
gtk.FILE_CHOOSER_ACTION_SAVE ,
gtk.FILE_CHOOSER_ACTION_SELECT_FOLDER or
gtk.FILE_CHOOSER_ACTION_CREATE_FOLDER . |
This method is available in PyGTK 2.4 and above.
The set_action
() method sets the
"action" property to the value of action
. The type of
operation that that the chooser is performing is set by
action
causing the user interface to be changed to
suit the selected action. The value of action
must be
one of:
| Indicates open mode. The file chooser will only let the user pick an existing file. |
| Indicates save mode. The file chooser will let the user pick an existing file, or type in a new filename. |
| Indicates an open mode for selecting folders. The file chooser will let the user pick an existing folder. |
| Indicates a mode for creating a new folder. The file chooser will let the user name an existing or new folder |
For example, an option to create a new folder might be shown if
the action is gtk.FILE_CHOOSER_ACTION_SAVE
but not if the
action is gtk.FILE_CHOOSER_ACTION_OPEN
.
def get_action()
Returns : | the action that is set for the file selector |
This method is available in PyGTK 2.4 and above.
The get_action

)
| if True , only local files can
be selected |
This method is available in PyGTK 2.4 and above.
The set_local_only
() method sets the
"local-only" property to the value of local_only
. If
local_only
is True
(the default),
only local files can be selected in the file selector and the selected files
are guaranteed to be accessible through the operating system's native file
system. Therefore, the application only needs to use the filename methods in
gtk.FileChooser
.
For example, the application can use the get_filename()
method instead of the URI method get_uri()
.
def get_local_only()
Returns : | True if only local files can be
selected. |
This method is available in PyGTK 2.4 and above.
The get_local_only
() method returns the

files can be selected in the file selector.
The "select-multiple" property cannot be set
True
when the file chooser action is
gtk.FILE_CHOOSER_ACTION_SAVE
or
gtk.FILE_CHOOSER_ACTION_CREATE_FOLDER
.
def get_select_multiple()
Returns : | True if multiple files can be
selected. |
This method is available in PyGTK 2.4 and above.

. This is equivalent to a sequence of unselect_all()
followed by select_filename()
.
Note that the file must exist, or nothing will be done except
for the directory change. To pre-enter a filename for the user, as in a
"Save as ..." dialog, use the set_current_name()
method.

The set_current_folder_file
() method
sets the current folder for chooser from a
gio.File
def set_file(file
)
| the gio.File |
Returns : | True if both the folder could be changed
and the file selected successfully, False otherwise. |
This method is available in PyGTK 2.14 and above.
The set_file
() method
Sets file as the current filename for the file chooser, by changing to the
file's parent folder and actually selecting the file in list.
If the chooser is in gtk.FILE_CHOOSER_ACTION_SAVE mode, the file's base
name will also appear in the dialog's file name entry.
If the file name isn't in the current folder of chooser, then the current folder of chooser will be changed to the folder containing filename. This is equivalent to a sequence of gtk.FileChooser.unselect_all() followed by gtk.FileChooser.select_filename().
Note that the file must exist, or nothing will be done except for the directory change.
If you are implementing a File/Save As... dialog, you should use this function if you already have a file name to which the user may save; for example, when the user opens an existing file and then does File/Save As... on it. If you don't have a file name already — for example, if the user just created a new file and is saving it for the first time, do not call this function. Instead, use something similar to this:
if (document_is_new): # the user just created a new document chooser.set_current_folder_file(default_file_for_saving) chooser.set_current_name("Untitled document") else: # the user edited an existing document chooser.set_file(existing_file)
def unselect_file(file
)
| a gio.File |
This method is available in PyGTK 2.14 and above.
The unselect_file
() method
unselects the file referred to by file. If the file is not in the current
directory, does not exist, or is otherwise not currently selected, does nothing.
def callback(filechooser
, user_param1
, ...
)
| the filechooser widget that received the signal |
| the first user parameter (if any) specified
with the connect () |
| additional user parameters (if any) |
Returns : | one of the GTK FileChooser Confirmation Constants indicating what action GTK+ should take. |
This signal is available in PyGTK 2.8 and above.
The "confirm-overwrite" signal is emitted when it is appropriate
to present a confirmation dialog when the user has selected a file name that
already exists. The signal is only emitted when the file chooser "action" property is set to gtk.FILE_CHOOSER_ACTION_SAVE
.
Most applications just need to turn on the
"do-overwrite-confirmation" property (or call the set_do_overwrite_confirmation
()
method), to automatically get a stock confirmation dialog. Applications
that need to customize this behavior should do that, and also connect to
the "confirm-overwrite" signal.
A signal handler for this signal must return one of the GTK FileChooser Confirmation Constants that
indicates the action to take. If the handler determines that the user wants
to select a different filename, it should return
gtk.FILE_CHOOSER_CONFIRMATION_SELECT_AGAIN
. If it
determines that the user is satisfied with his choice of file name, it
should return
gtk.FILE_CHOOSER_CONFIRMATION_ACCEPT_FILENAME
. On the
other hand, if it determines that the stock confirmation dialog should be
used, it should return
gtkfile_CHOOSER_CONFIRMATION_CONFIRM
. The following
psuedo-code example illustrates this.
def confirm_overwrite_callback(chooser): uri = chooser.get_uri() if is_uri_read_only(uri): if user_wants_to_replace_read_only_file (uri): return gtk.FILE_CHOOSER_CONFIRMATION_ACCEPT_FILENAME else return gtk.FILE_CHOOSER_CONFIRMATION_SELECT_AGAIN else # fall back to the default dialog return gtk.FILE_CHOOSER_CONFIRMATION_CONFIRM ... chooser = gtk.FileChooserDialog(...) chooser.set_do_overwrite_confirmation(True) chooser.connect("confirm-overwrite", confirm_overwrite_callback) if chooser.run() == gtk.RESPONSE_ACCEPT: save_to_file(chooser.get_filename() chooser.destroy()
def callback(filechooser
, user_param1
, ...
)
| the filechooser widget that received the signal |
| the first user parameter (if any) specified
with the connect () |
| additional user parameters (if any) |
This signal is available in PyGTK 2.4 and above.
The "current-folder-changed" signal is emitted when the current
folder displayed in filechooser
is changed. Normally
you do not need to connect to this signal, unless you need to keep track of
which folder a file chooser is showing.
def callback(filechooser
, user_param1
, ...
)
| the filechooser widget that received the signal |
| the first user parameter (if any) specified
with the connect () |
| additional user parameters (if any) |
This signal is available in PyGTK 2.4 and above.
The "file-activated" signal is emitted when the user
double-clicks on a file (not a folder) or presses
Enter. Normally you do not need to connect to this
signal. It is used internally by gtk.FileChooserDialog
to know when to activate the default button in the dialog.
def callback(filechooser
, user_param1
, ...
)
| the filechooser widget that received the signal |
| the first user parameter (if any) specified
with the connect () |
| additional user parameters (if any) |
This signal is available in PyGTK 2.4 and above.
The "selection-changed" signal is emitted when the file
selection in filechooser
is changed either by
clicking on a filename or by changing the current folder. Normally you do
not need to connect to this signal, as it is easier to wait for the file
chooser to finish running, and then to get the list of selected files using
the functions mentioned below.
def callback(filechooser
, user_param1
, ...
)
| the filechooser widget that received the signal |
| the first user parameter (if any) specified
with the connect () |
| additional user parameters (if any) |
This signal is available in PyGTK 2.4 and above.
The "update-preview" signal is emitted when the preview when a file chooser should be regenerated. For example, this can happen when the currently selected file changes. You should use this signal if you want your file chooser to have a preview widget.
Once you have installed a preview widget with the set_preview_widget
()
method, you should update it when this signal is emitted. You can use the
methods get_preview_filename
()
or get_preview_uri
()
to get the name of the file to preview. Your widget may not be able to
preview all kinds of files so your callback must call the set_preview_widget_active
()
to inform the file chooser if the preview was generated successfully or
not.
Please see the example code in the section called Adding a Preview Widget.
Also see the set_preview_widget
(),
set_preview_widget_active
(),
set_use_preview_label
(),
get_preview_filename
()
and get_preview_uri
()
