I am trying to get my mind around Zeitgeist, using the Python DBus API.
To get the latest accessed files and application is not so hard, here is what I do:
#! /usr/bin/env python
from zeitgeist.client import ZeitgeistDBusInterface
from zeitgeist.datamodel import Event, Interpretation, TimeRange, \
StorageState, ResultType
zg = ZeitgeistDBusInterface()
events = zg.FindEvents(
TimeRange.always(),
[Event.new_for_values(interpretation=Interpretation.ACCESS_EVENT)],
StorageState.Available, 3, ResultType.MostRecentEvents)
for e in events:
event = Event(e)
subjects = event.get_subjects()
for s in subjects:
print "subject", s.text, s.uri
The interpretation flag Interpretation.ACCESS_EVENT returns all matching events, i.e. files and application accessed. Much more interpretation flags are available, but I do not succeed in getting results from events other than with Interpretation.EVENT_INTERPRETATION and its subclasses. More specifically I would like to access Interpretation.DATA_CONTAINER
and its subclass, but it never returns any result.
So am I doing something wrong in that case? Could you suggest anything?
