at fist, PyUNO bridge must be installed. E.g., I need to launch ping and see what errorcode it returns:
[python]
import os
import uno
import unohelper
from com.sun.star.task import XJob
class Pinger( unohelper.Base, XJob ):
def __init__( self, ctx ):
self.ctx = ctx
def execute( self, args ):
struct = uno.createUnoStruct( "com.sun.star.beans.PropertyValue" )
status = -1
output = "false"
pipeout = "Something goes wrong?"
for struct in args:
if struct.Name == 'command':
pipe = os.popen('{ ' + struct.Value + '; } 2>&1', 'r')
pipeout = pipe.read()
status = pipe.close()
elif struct.Name == 'print':
output = struct.Value
if output != "false":
desktop = self.ctx.ServiceManager.createInstanceWithContext( "com.sun.star.frame.Desktop", self.ctx )
model = desktop.getCurrentComponent()
text = model.Text
cursor = text.createTextCursor()
text.insertString( cursor, pipeout, 0 )
return status
g_ImplementationHelper = unohelper.ImplementationHelper()
g_ImplementationHelper.addImplementation( Pinger, "org.openoffice.comp.pyuno.Pinger", ("com.sun.star.task.Job",),)
Since pkgchk I can use org.openoffice.comp.pyuno.Pinger e.g. in basic:
[oobas]
dim worm as object
worm = CreateUnoService("org.openoffice.comp.pyuno.Pinger")
For 2.x the pkgchk has been replaced wiht unopkg which usually has a better compilation.
Explanation of the code
First we need to import all the modules we need.
[python]
import os
import uno
import unohelper
Second we will load the XJob within the com.sun.star.task this let us avoid being able to load OOo in listen mode.
[python]
from com.sun.star.task import XJob
