__init__(self, app_name="", settings_file="", default_settings_file="settings-dist.xml", copy_dist=True, serializer=None)
(Constructor)

source code 

Initializes the Setting object.

Parameters:
  • app_name (string) - The applications name. If this parameter is provided alone it will try to read the settings file from the users home directory. In windows this will be something like: C:\Documents and Settings\user\Application Data\fife
  • settings_file (string) - The name of the settings file. If this parameter is provided it will look for the setting file as you specify it, first looking in the working directory. It will NOT look in the users home directory.
  • default_settings_file (string) - The name of the default settings file. If the settings_file does not exist this file will be copied into the place of the settings_file. This file must exist in the root directory of your project!
  • copy_dist - Copies the default settings file to the settings_file location. If this is False it will create a new empty setting file.
  • serializer (SimpleSerializer) - Overrides the default XML serializer

_initDefaultSettingEntries(self)

source code 

Initializes the default fife setting entries. Not to be called from outside this class.

createAndAddEntry(self, module, name, applyfunction=None, initialdata=None, requiresrestart=False)

source code 

"

Parameters:
  • module (String) - The Setting module this Entry belongs to
  • name (String) - The Setting's name
  • applyfunction (function) - function that makes the changes when the Setting is saved
  • initialdata (String or Boolean) - If the widget supports the setInitialData() function this can be used to set the initial data
  • requiresrestart (Boolean) - Whether or not the changing of this setting requires a restart

addEntry(self, entry)

source code

saveSettings(self, filename="")

source code

source code 

Gets the value of a specified setting

Parameters:
  • module - Name of the module to get the setting from
  • name - Setting name
