# CollectionFetchJob Class Reference

`from PyKDE4.akonadi import *`

Inherits: Akonadi.Job → KCompositeJob → KJob → QObject
Namespace: Akonadi

## Detailed Description

Job that fetches collections from the Akonadi storage.

This class can be used to retrieve the complete or partial collection tree from the Akonadi storage. This fetches collection data, not item data.

     using namespace Akonadi;

     // fetching all collections containing emails recursively, starting at the root collection
     CollectionFetchJob *job = new CollectionFetchJob( Collection.root(), CollectionFetchJob.Recursive, this );
     job->fetchScope().setContentMimeTypes( QStringList() << "message/rfc822" );
     connect( job, SIGNAL( collectionsReceived( const Akonadi.Collection.List& ) ),
              this, SLOT( myCollectionsReceived( const Akonadi.Collection.List& ) ) );
     connect( job, SIGNAL( result( KJob* ) ), this, SLOT( collectionFetchResult( KJob* ) ) );

## Signal Documentation

collectionsReceived | ( | [Akonadi.Collection] | collections
| ) |  |  |

This signal is emitted whenever the job has received collections.

Parameters:

  | collections | The received collections.

Signal syntax:
  `QObject.connect(source, SIGNAL("collectionsReceived(const Akonadi::Collection::List&)"), target_slot)`

## Method Documentation

__init__ | ( | self, |
|  | Akonadi.Collection | collection,
|  | Akonadi.CollectionFetchJob.Type | type=Akonadi.CollectionFetchJob.FirstLevel,
|  | QObject | parent=0
| ) |  |  |

Creates a new collection fetch job. If the given base collection has a unique identifier, this is used to identify the collection in the Akonadi server. If only a remote identifier is avaiable the collection is identified using that, provided that a resource search context has been specified. There are two ways of doing that: by calling setResource(), or globally using Akonadi.ResourceSelectJob.

Parameters:

  | collection | The base collection for the listing.
  | type | The type of fetch depth.
  | parent | The parent object.

__init__ | ( | self, |
|  | [Akonadi.Collection] | collections,
|  | QObject | parent=0
| ) |  |  |

Creates a new collection fetch job to retrieve a list of collections. The same rules for identifiers apply as noted in the constructor description.

Parameters:

  | collections | A list of collections to fetch. Must not be empty.
  | parent | The parent object.

__init__ | ( | self, |
|  | [Akonadi.Collection] | collections,
|  | Akonadi.CollectionFetchJob.Type | type,
|  | QObject | parent=0
| ) |  |  |

Convenience ctor equivalent to CollectionFetchJob( const Collection.List &collections, Type type, QObject *parent = 0 )

Since:
  4.8

[Akonadi.Collection] collections | ( |  | self ) |

Returns the list of fetched collection.

doHandleResponse | ( | self, |
|  | QByteArray | tag,
|  | QByteArray | data
| ) |  |  |

doStart | ( |  | self ) |

Akonadi.CollectionFetchScope fetchScope | ( |  | self ) |

Returns the collection fetch scope.

Since this returns a reference it can be used to conveniently modify the current scope in-place, i.e. by calling a method on the returned reference without storing it in a local variable. See the CollectionFetchScope documentation for an example.

Returns:
  a reference to the current collection fetch scope

See also:
  setFetchScope() for replacing the current collection fetch scope

Since:
  4.4

includeStatistics | ( | self, |
|  | bool | include=1
| ) |  |  |

Include also statistics about the collections.

Since:
  4.3

Deprecated:
  Use CollectionFetchScope instead.

includeUnsubscribed | ( | self, |
|  | bool | include=1
| ) |  |  |

Include also unsubscribed collections.

Deprecated:
  Use CollectionFetchScope instead.

setFetchScope | ( | self, |
|  | Akonadi.CollectionFetchScope | fetchScope
| ) |  |  |

Sets the collection fetch scope.

The CollectionFetchScope controls how much of a collection's data is fetched from the server as well as a filter to select which collections to fetch.

Parameters:

  | fetchScope | The new scope for collection fetch operations.

See also:
  fetchScope()

Since:
  4.4

setResource | ( | self, |
|  | QString | resource
| ) |  |  |

Sets a resource identifier to limit collection listing to one resource.

Parameters:

  | resource | The resource identifier.

Deprecated:
  Use CollectionFetchScope instead.

slotResult | ( | self, |
|  | KJob | job
| ) |  |  |
