How to write a resource

* * The following provides an overview of what you need to do to implement * your own Akonadi resource. In the following, the term 'backend' refers * to the entity the resource connects with Akonadi, be it a single file * or a remote server. * * @todo Complete this (online/offline state management) * *
Basic %Resource Framework
* * The following is needed to create a new resource: * - A new class deriving from Akonadi::ResourceBase, implementing at least all * pure-virtual methods, see below for further details. * - call init() in your main() function. * - a .desktop file similar to the following example * \code * [Desktop Entry] * Encoding=UTF-8 * Name=My Akonadi Resource * Type=AkonadiResource * Exec=akonadi_my_resource * Icon=my-icon * * X-Akonadi-MimeTypes= * X-Akonadi-Capabilities=Resource * X-Akonadi-Identifier=akonadi_my_resource * \endcode * *
Handling PIM Items
* * To follow item changes in the backend, the following steps are necessary: * - Implement retrieveItems() to synchronize all items in the given * collection. If the backend supports incremental retrieval, * implementing support for that is recommended to improve performance. * - Convert the items provided by the backend to Akonadi items. * This typically happens either in retrieveItems() if you retrieved * the collection synchronously (not recommended for network backends) or * in the result slot of the asynchronous retrieval job. * Converting means to create Akonadi::Item objects for every retrieved * item. It's very important that every object has its remote identifier set. * - Call itemsRetrieved() or itemsRetrievedIncremental() respectively * with the item objects created above. The Akonadi storage will then be * updated automatically. Note that it is usually not necessary to manipulate * any item in the Akonadi storage manually. * * To fetch item data on demand, the method retrieveItem() needs to be * reimplemented. Fetch the requested data there and call itemRetrieved() * with the result item. * * To write local changes back to the backend, you need to re-implement * the following three methods: * - itemAdded() * - itemChanged() * - itemRemoved() + * Note that these three functions don't get the full payload of the items by default, + * you need to change the item fetch scope of the change recorder to fetch the full + * payload. This can be expensive with big payloads, though.
* Once you have handled changes in these methods call changeCommitted(). * These methods are called whenever a local item related to this resource is * added, modified or deleted. They are only called if the resource is online, otherwise * all changes are recorded and replayed as soon the resource is online again. * *
Handling Collections
* * To follow collection changes in the backend, the following steps are necessary: * - Implement retrieveCollections() to retrieve collections from the backend. * If the backend supports incremental collections updates, implementing * support for that is recommended to improve performance. * - Convert the collections of the backend to Akonadi collections. * This typically happens either in retrieveCollections() if you retrieved * the collection synchronously (not recommended for network backends) or * in the result slot of the asynchronous retrieval job. * Converting means to create Akonadi::Collection objects for every retrieved * collection. It's very important that every object has its remote identifier * and its parent remote identifier set. * - Call collectionsRetrieved() or collectionsRetrievedIncremental() respectively * with the collection objects created above. The Akonadi storage will then be * updated automatically. Note that it is usually not necessary to manipulate * any collection in the Akonadi storage manually. * * * To write local collection changes back to the backend, you need to re-implement * the following three methods: * - collectionAdded() * - collectionChanged() * - collectionRemoved() * Once you have handled changes in these methods call changeCommitted(). * These methods are called whenever a local collection related to this resource is * added, modified or deleted. They are only called if the resource is online, otherwise * all changes are recorded and replayed as soon the resource is online again. * * @todo Convenience base class for collection-less resources */ // FIXME_API: API dox need to be updated for Observer approach (kevin) class AKONADI_EXPORT ResourceBase : public AgentBase { Q_OBJECT public: /** * Use this method in the main function of your resource * application to initialize your resource subclass. * This method also takes care of creating a KApplication * object and parsing command line arguments. * * @note In case the given class is also derived from AgentBase::Observer * it gets registered as its own observer (see AgentBase::Observer), e.g. * resourceInstance->registerObserver( resourceInstance ); * * @code * * class MyResource : public ResourceBase * { * ... * }; * * int main( int argc, char **argv ) * { * return ResourceBase::init( argc, argv ); * } * * @endcode */ template static int init( int argc, char **argv ) { const QString id = parseArguments( argc, argv ); KApplication app; T* r = new T( id ); // check if T also inherits AgentBase::Observer and // if it does, automatically register it on itself Observer *observer = dynamic_cast( r ); if ( observer != 0 ) r->registerObserver( observer ); return init( r ); } /** * This method is used to set the name of the resource. */ //FIXME_API: make sure location is renamed to this by resourcebase void setName( const QString &name ); /** * Returns the name of the resource. */ QString name() const; Q_SIGNALS: /** * This signal is emitted whenever the name of the resource has changed. * * @param name The new name of the resource. */ void nameChanged( const QString &name ); protected Q_SLOTS: /** * Retrieve the collection tree from the remote server and supply it via * collectionsRetrieved() or collectionsRetrievedIncremental(). * @see collectionsRetrieved(), collectionsRetrievedIncremental() */ virtual void retrieveCollections() = 0; /** * Retrieve all (new/changed) items in collection @p collection. * It is recommended to use incremental retrieval if the backend supports that * and provide the result by calling itemsRetrievedIncremental(). * If incremental retrieval is not possible, provide the full listing by calling * itemsRetrieved( const Item::List& ). * In any case, ensure that all items have a correctly set remote identifier * to allow synchronizing with already locally existing items. * In case you don't want to use the built-in item syncing code, store the retrived * items manually and call itemsRetrieved() once you are done. * @param collection The collection to sync. * @see itemsRetrieved( const Item::List &), itemsRetrievedIncremental(), itemsRetrieved(), currentCollection() */ virtual void retrieveItems( const Akonadi::Collection &collection ) = 0; /** * Retrieve a single item from the backend.
