Project description
Some simple MacOS plist facilities.
Supports binary plist files, which the stdlib plistlib
module does not.
Latest release 20220606: Initial PyPI release.
Function export_xml_to_plist(E, fp=None, fmt='binary1')
Export the content of an etree.Element
to a plist file.
Parameters:
E
: the sourceetree.Element
.fp
: the output file or filename (if a str).fmt
: the output format, default"binary1"
. The format must be a valid value for the-convert
option of plutil(1).
Function import_as_etree(plist)
Load an Apple plist and return an etree.Element.
Paramaters:
plist
: the source plist: data ifbytes
, filename ifstr
, otherwise a file object open for binary read.
Function ingest_plist(plist, recurse=False, resolve=False)
Ingest an Apple plist and return as a PListDict
.
Trivial wrapper for import_as_etree
and ingest_plist_etree
.
Parameters:
recurse
: unpack anybytes
objects as plistsresolve
: resolve unpackedbytes
plists''$objects'
entries
Function ingest_plist_array(pa)
Ingest a plist , returning a Python list.
Function ingest_plist_dict(pd)
Ingest a plist Element, returning a PListDict.
Function ingest_plist_elem(e)
Ingest a plist Element
, converting various types to native Python objects.
Unhandled types remain as the original Element
.
Function ingest_plist_etree(plist_etree)
Recursively a plist's ElementTree
into a native Python structure.
This returns a PListDict
, a mapping of the plists's top dict
with attribute access to key values.
Function is_iphone()
Test if we're on an iPhone.
Class ObjectClassDefinition
A representation of a "class" object, used in resolve_object()
for otherwise unrecognised objects which contain a $classname
member.
Class ObjectClassInstance
A representation of a "class instance", used in resolve_object()
for objects with a $class
member.
Class PListDict(builtins.dict)
A mapping for a plist, subclassing dict
, which also allows
access to the elements by attribute if that does not conflict
with a dict
method.
Function readPlist(path, binary=False)
An old routine I made to use inside my jailbroken iPhone.
Function resolve_object(objs, i)
Resolve an object definition from structures like an iPhoto album queryData object list.
Function writePlist(rootObj, path, binary=False)
An old routine I made to use inside my jailbroken iPhone.
