version: v1.0.8

File dialogs customized by a JSON file.

object CFDType [src]

function get_cfd_types() [src]

def get_cfd_types(fetch_data: bool = False) -> list[str | CFDData]

Returns the available custom file dialog (CFD) types.

dataclass CFDData [src]

Data describing a configuration for a given custom file dialog (CFD).

Parameters:

• path_id: Unique text identifier of the path.
• window_title: Title to set for the dialog.
• dialog_type: Numeric identifier for open/save file or open directory.
• file_type_filter: String filter for file handler dialogs (e.g. "JSON (*.json)").

function _import_json() [src]

def _import_json(full_id_key: bool = False) -> dict[str, CFDData] | None

Imports data from the handled JSON file.

Parameters:

• full_id_key: A flag marking whether to keep the full ID as key or to format it (default) beforehand.

Returns: A dictionary with keys of path IDs and values of CFDData objects, imported from the handled JSON file (or None if there is no such file).
