ValentApplicationPlugin

unstable since: 1.0

Description [src] 

abstract class Valent.ApplicationPlugin : Valent.Extension
  implements Gio.ActionGroup, Gio.ActionMap {
  /* No available fields */
}

An abstract base class for application plugins.

ValentApplicationPlugin is a base class for plugins that operate in the scope of the application. This usually means integrating the application with the host environment (eg. XDG Autostart).

Implementation Notes

Implementations may handle application events by overriding the appropriate virtual function, including Valent.ApplicationPluginClass.activate to handle activation, Valent.ApplicationPluginClass.command_line to handle CLI options, or Valent.ApplicationPluginClass.open to handle files.

.plugin File

Application plugins have no special fields in the .plugin file.

Available since: 1.0
