Resolver¶

This module is used for the creation of “Route callbacks”.

class codequick.resolver.Resolver[source]¶

This class is used to create “Resolver” callbacks. Resolver callbacks are callbacks that return playable video URL’s which Kodi can play.

Resolver inherits all methods and attributes from script.Script.

The possible return types from Resolver Callbacks are.

str: URL as type “str”.
iterable: “List” or “tuple”, consisting of URL’s, “listItem’s” or a “tuple” consisting of (title, URL).
dict: “Dictionary” consisting of “title” as the key and the URL as the value.
listItem: A codequick.Listitem object with required data already set e.g. “label” and “path”.
generator: A Python “generator” that return’s one or more URL’s.
False: This will cause the “resolver call” to quit silently, without raising a RuntimeError.

Note

If multiple URL’s are given, a playlist will be automaticly created.

Raises:

RuntimeError – If no content was returned from callback.
ValueError – If returned url is invalid.

Example:

>>> from codequick import Resolver, Route, Listitem
>>>
>>> @Route.register
>>> def root(_):
>>>     yield Listitem.from_dict("Play video", play_video,
>>>           params={"url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RZuVTOk6ePM"})
>>>
>>> @Resolver.register
>>> def play_video(plugin, url):
>>>     # Extract a playable video url using youtubeDL
>>>     return plugin.extract_source(url)
