Route¶

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

class codequick.route.Route[source]¶

This class is used to create “Route” callbacks. “Route” callbacks, are callbacks that return “listitems” which will show up as folders in Kodi.

Route inherits all methods and attributes from codequick.Script.

The possible return types from Route Callbacks are.

iterable: “List” or “tuple”, consisting of codequick.listitem objects.
generator: A Python “generator” that return’s codequick.listitem objects.
False: This will cause the “plugin call” to quit silently, without raising a RuntimeError.

Raises:

RuntimeError – If no content was returned from callback.

Example:

>>> from codequick import Route, Listitem
>>>
>>> @Route.register
>>> def root(_):
>>>     yield Listitem.from_dict("Extra videos", subfolder)
>>>     yield Listitem.from_dict("Play video", "http://www.example.com/video1.mkv")
>>>
>>> @Route.register
>>> def subfolder(_):
>>>     yield Listitem.from_dict("Play extra video", "http://www.example.com/video2.mkv")

autosort = True¶: Set to False to disable auto sortmethod selection.

Note

If autosort is disabled and no sortmethods are given, then SORT_METHOD_UNSORTED will be set.

category¶: Manualy specifiy the category for the current folder view. Equivalent to setting xbmcplugin.setPluginCategory()

redirect_single_item = False¶: When this attribute is set to True and there is only one folder listitem available in the folder view, then that listitem will be automaticly called for you.

update_listing = False¶: When set to True, the current page of listitems will be updated, instead of creating a new page of listitems.

content_type = None¶

The add-on’s “content type”.

If not given, then the “content type” is based on the “mediatype” infolabel of the listitems. If the “mediatype” infolabel” was not set, then it defaults to “files/videos”, based on type of content.

“files” when listing folders.
“videos” when listing videos.
