Class Details¶

class Gio.UnixMountMonitor(**kwargs)¶

Bases:	`GObject.Object`
Abstract:	No
Structure:	`Gio.UnixMountMonitorClass`

Watches #GUnixMounts for changes.

classmethod get()[source]¶

Returns:	the `Gio.UnixMountMonitor`.
Return type:	`Gio.UnixMountMonitor`

Gets the Gio.UnixMountMonitor for the current thread-default main context.

The mount monitor can be used to monitor for changes to the list of mounted filesystems as well as the list of mount points (ie: fstab entries).

You must only call GObject.Object.unref() on the return value from under the same main context as you called this function.

New in version 2.44.

classmethod new()[source]¶

Returns:	a `Gio.UnixMountMonitor`.
Return type:	`Gio.UnixMountMonitor`

Deprecated alias for Gio.UnixMountMonitor.get().

This function was never a true constructor, which is why it was renamed.

Deprecated since version 2.44: Use Gio.UnixMountMonitor.get() instead.

set_rate_limit(limit_msec)[source]¶

Parameters:	limit_msec (`int`) – a integer with the limit in milliseconds to poll for changes.

This function does nothing.

Before 2.44, this was a partially-effective way of controlling the rate at which events would be reported under some uncommon circumstances. Since self is a singleton, it also meant that calling this function would have side effects for other users of the monitor.

New in version 2.18.

Deprecated since version 2.44: This function does nothing. Don’t call it.

Signal Details¶

Gio.UnixMountMonitor.signals.mountpoints_changed(unix_mount_monitor)¶

Signal Name:	`mountpoints-changed`
Flags:	`RUN_LAST`
Parameters:	unix_mount_monitor (`Gio.UnixMountMonitor`) – The object which received the signal

Emitted when the unix mount points have changed.

Gio.UnixMountMonitor.signals.mounts_changed(unix_mount_monitor)¶

Signal Name:	`mounts-changed`
Flags:	`RUN_LAST`
Parameters:	unix_mount_monitor (`Gio.UnixMountMonitor`) – The object which received the signal

Emitted when the unix mounts have changed.
