## Description

TotemPlParser is a general-purpose playlist parser and writer, with support for several different types of playlist. Note that totem-pl-parser requires a main loop to operate properly (e.g. for the "entry-parsed" signal to be emitted).

Example 1. Reading a Playlist

    g_object_set (pl, "recurse", FALSE, "disable-unsafe", TRUE, NULL);
    g_signal_connect (G_OBJECT (pl), "playlist-started", G_CALLBACK (playlist_started), NULL);
    g_signal_connect (G_OBJECT (pl), "entry-parsed", G_CALLBACK (entry_parsed), NULL);

    if (totem_pl_parser_parse (pl, "http://example.com/playlist.pls", FALSE) != TOTEM_PL_PARSER_RESULT_SUCCESS)
        g_error ("Playlist parsing failed.");

    g_object_unref (pl);

            g_error ("Playlist parsing failed: %s", error->message);

## Details

### TotemPlParser

    typedef struct _TotemPlParser TotemPlParser;

All the fields in the TotemPlParser structure are private and should never be accessed directly.

### TotemPlParserClass

    typedef struct {
    	GObjectClass parent_class;

    	/* signals */
    	void (*entry_parsed) (TotemPlParser *parser,
    			      const char *uri,
    			      GHashTable *metadata);
    	void (*playlist_started) (TotemPlParser *parser,
    				  const char *uri,
    				  GHashTable *metadata);
    	void (*playlist_ended) (TotemPlParser *parser,
    				const char *uri);
    } TotemPlParserClass;

The class structure for the TotemPlParser type.

GObjectClass `parent_class`; | the parent class
`entry_parsed` () | the generic signal handler for the "entry-parsed" signal, which can be overridden by inheriting classes
`playlist_started` () | the generic signal handler for the "playlist-started" signal, which can be overridden by inheriting classes
`playlist_ended` () | the generic signal handler for the "playlist-ended" signal, which can be overridden by inheriting classes

### enum TotemPlParserResult

    typedef enum {
    	TOTEM_PL_PARSER_RESULT_UNHANDLED,
    	TOTEM_PL_PARSER_RESULT_ERROR,
    	TOTEM_PL_PARSER_RESULT_SUCCESS,
    	TOTEM_PL_PARSER_RESULT_IGNORED,
    	TOTEM_PL_PARSER_RESULT_CANCELLED
    } TotemPlParserResult;

Gives the result of parsing a playlist.

`TOTEM_PL_PARSER_RESULT_UNHANDLED` | The playlist could not be handled.
`TOTEM_PL_PARSER_RESULT_ERROR` | There was an error parsing the playlist.
`TOTEM_PL_PARSER_RESULT_SUCCESS` | The playlist was parsed successfully.
`TOTEM_PL_PARSER_RESULT_IGNORED` | The playlist was ignored due to its scheme or MIME type (see `totem_pl_parser_add_ignored_scheme()` and `totem_pl_parser_add_ignored_mimetype()`).
`TOTEM_PL_PARSER_RESULT_CANCELLED` | Parsing of the playlist was cancelled part-way through.

### enum TotemPlParserType

    typedef enum {
    	TOTEM_PL_PARSER_PLS,
    	TOTEM_PL_PARSER_M3U,
    	TOTEM_PL_PARSER_M3U_DOS,
    	TOTEM_PL_PARSER_XSPF,
    	TOTEM_PL_PARSER_IRIVER_PLA,
    } TotemPlParserType;

The type of playlist a TotemPlParser will parse.

`TOTEM_PL_PARSER_PLS` | PLS parser
`TOTEM_PL_PARSER_M3U` | M3U parser
`TOTEM_PL_PARSER_M3U_DOS` | M3U (DOS linebreaks) parser
`TOTEM_PL_PARSER_XSPF` | XSPF parser
`TOTEM_PL_PARSER_IRIVER_PLA` | iRiver PLA parser

### enum TotemPlParserError

    typedef enum {
    	TOTEM_PL_PARSER_ERROR_NO_DISC,
    	TOTEM_PL_PARSER_ERROR_MOUNT_FAILED,
    	TOTEM_PL_PARSER_ERROR_EMPTY_PLAYLIST
    } TotemPlParserError;

Allows you to differentiate between different errors occurring during file operations in a TotemPlParser.

`TOTEM_PL_PARSER_ERROR_NO_DISC` | Error attempting to open a disc device when no disc is present
`TOTEM_PL_PARSER_ERROR_MOUNT_FAILED` | An attempted mount operation failed
`TOTEM_PL_PARSER_ERROR_EMPTY_PLAYLIST` | Playlist to be saved is empty

### TotemPlParserMetadata

    typedef GHashTable TotemPlParserMetadata;

### totem_pl_parser_new ()

    TotemPlParser *     totem_pl_parser_new                 (void);

Creates a TotemPlParser object.

Returns : | a new TotemPlParser

### totem_pl_parser_parse ()

    TotemPlParserResult totem_pl_parser_parse               (TotemPlParser *parser,
                                                             const char *uri,
                                                             gboolean fallback);

Parses a playlist given by the absolute URI `uri`. This method is synchronous, and will block on (e.g.) network requests to slow servers. `totem_pl_parser_parse_async()` is recommended instead.

Return values are as `totem_pl_parser_parse_with_base()`.

`parser` : | a TotemPlParser
`uri` : | the URI of the playlist to parse
`fallback` : | `TRUE` if the parser should add the playlist URI to the end of the playlist on parse failure
Returns : | a TotemPlParserResult

### totem_pl_parser_parse_async ()

    void                totem_pl_parser_parse_async         (TotemPlParser *parser,
                                                             const char *uri,
                                                             gboolean fallback,
                                                             GCancellable *cancellable,
                                                             GAsyncReadyCallback callback,
                                                             gpointer user_data);

Starts asynchronous parsing of a playlist given by the absolute URI `uri`. `parser` and `uri` are both reffed/copied when this function is called, so can safely be freed after this function returns.

For more details, see `totem_pl_parser_parse()`, which is the synchronous version of this function.

When the operation is finished, `callback` will be called. You can then call `totem_pl_parser_parse_finish()` to get the results of the operation.

`parser` : | a TotemPlParser
`uri` : | the URI of the playlist to parse
`fallback` : | `TRUE` if the parser should add the playlist URI to the end of the playlist on parse failure
`cancellable` : | optional GCancellable object, or `NULL`. [allow-none]
`callback` : | a GAsyncReadyCallback to call when parsing is finished. [allow-none]
`user_data` : | data to pass to the `callback` function

### totem_pl_parser_parse_finish ()

Starts asynchronous parsing of a playlist given by the absolute URI `uri`, using `base` to resolve relative paths where appropriate. `parser` and `uri` are both reffed/copied when this function is called, so can safely be freed after this function returns.

For more details, see `totem_pl_parser_parse_with_base()`, which is the synchronous version of this function.

When the operation is finished, `callback` will be called. You can then call `totem_pl_parser_parse_finish()` to get the results of the operation.

`parser` : | a TotemPlParser
`uri` : | the URI of the playlist to parse
`base` : | the base path for relative filenames, or `NULL`. [allow-none]
`fallback` : | `TRUE` if the parser should add the playlist URI to the end of the playlist on parse failure
`cancellable` : | optional GCancellable object, or `NULL`. [allow-none]
`callback` : | a GAsyncReadyCallback to call when parsing is finished. [allow-none]
`user_data` : | data to pass to the `callback` function

Writes the playlist held by `parser` and `playlist` out to the path pointed by `dest`. The playlist is written in the format `type` and is given the title `title`.

If the `output` file is a directory the G_IO_ERROR_IS_DIRECTORY error will be returned, and if the file is some other form of non-regular file then a G_IO_ERROR_NOT_REGULAR_FILE error will be returned. Some file systems don't allow all file names, and may return a G_IO_ERROR_INVALID_FILENAME error, and if the name is too long, G_IO_ERROR_FILENAME_TOO_LONG will be returned. Other errors are possible too, and depend on what kind of filesystem the file is on.

In extreme cases, a G_IO_ERROR_INVALID_ARGUMENT error can be returned, if parts of the playlist to be written are too long.

If writing a PLA playlist and there is an error converting a URI's encoding, a code from GConvertError will be returned.

`playlist` : | a TotemPlPlaylist
`dest` : | output GFile
`title` : | the playlist title

`parser` : | the object which received the signal
`uri` : | the URI of the playlist that finished parsing.
`user_data` : | user data set when the signal handler was connected.
