Description

Functionality for manipulating basic metadata for files. gio.FileInfo implements methods for getting information that all files should contain, and allows for manipulation of extended attributes.

See gio.FileAttribute for more information on how GIO handles file attributes.

To obtain a gio.FileInfo for a gio.File, use gio.File.query_info() (or its async variant). To obtain a gio.FileInfo for a file input or output stream, use gio.FileInputStream.query_info() or gio.FileOutputStream.query_info() (or their async variants).

To change the actual attributes of a file, you should then set the attribute in the gio.FileInfo and call gio.File.set_attributes_from_info() or gio.File.set_attributes_async() on a gio.File.

However, not all attributes can be changed in the file. For instance, the actual size of a file cannot be changed via gio.FileInfo.set_size(). You may call gio.File.query_settable_attributes() and gio.File.query_writable_namespace() to discover the settable attributes of a particular file at runtime.

gio.FileAttributeMatcher allows for searching through a GFileInfo for attributes.
