Nemo.ColumnProvider

Nemo.ColumnProvider Reference

## Synopsis

          Nemo.ColumnProvider

            get_columns

## Description

If subclassed, Nemo will request a list of `Nemo.Column` objects, which are then displayed when the user is in `List` mode.

An extension sub-classing `Nemo.ColumnProvider` will almost always want to sub-class `Nemo.InfoProvider` as well, since that is how an extension provides information for each item in a directory listing.

### Nemo.ColumnProvider Example

    import os
    import urllib

    from gi.repository import Nemo, GObject

    class ColumnExtension(GObject.GObject, Nemo.ColumnProvider, Nemo.InfoProvider):
        def __init__(self):
            pass

        def get_columns(self):
            return Nemo.Column(name="NemoPython::block_size_column",
                                   attribute="block_size",
                                   label="Block size",
                                   description="Get the block size"),

        def update_file_info(self, file):
            if file.get_uri_scheme() != 'file':
                return

            filename = urllib.unquote(file.get_uri()[7:])

            file.add_string_attribute('block_size', str(os.stat(filename).st_blksize))
