GNOME

I’ve implemented 2 extensions for the gnome-shell (version 3.2, 3.4, 3.6, 3.8):

Desktop Icons Switch
Recent Items

Desktop Icons Switch

This extension adds a switch to enable or disable the desktop icons. This is also possible via gnome-tweak-tool, but this is for faster access to turn the icons on and off…

Latest version: 4 (update for gnome-shell 3.8)

Download and activate it via extensions.gnome.org: Desktop Icons Switch

Alternatively download and extract to “~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/”: DesktopIconsSwitch-4.tar.gz

Recent Items

Something missing for the GNOME 3: a simple list for the last recently used items and, since you can search your recently used porns in the overview mode, an easy way to delete this list. So, this is my first extension.

Latest Version 7: update for gnome-shell 3.8 (thanks to grynays!)

Changelog version 4:

- “More…”-Button
- Blacklisting MIME Media Types
- Fixed undeclared Variable (thx oib)

Todos:

- right-click on single entry: remove from list, show in folder
- gui for settings
- hide button after cleaning
- folders?
- private-mode?
- error-msg if file does not exist
- overview tab (like the extension for zeitgeist)?

Settings:

To change the default settings (10 items, 50 more-items, no blacklisting), go to the top of your extensions.js, should be here:

~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/RecentItems@bananenfisch.net/extension.js
or /usr/share/gnome-shell/extensions/RecentItems@bananenfisch.net/extension.js

const ITEMS = 10;       // number of items to list
const MORE = 50;        // number of items to list under "more..."
const BLACKLIST = "";   // to blacklist (hide) spezific MIME media types

const ITEMS = 10; // number of items to list

const MORE = 50; // number of items to list under "more..."

const BLACKLIST = ""; // to blacklist (hide) spezific MIME media types

If you set MORE = 0, there will be no “More…”-Button. Available media-types are: text, image, audio, video, application, multipart, message, model. You can define one or more (seperate with “,”) types.

For example, to blacklist all images use:

const BLACKLIST = "image";

1	const BLACKLIST = "image";

To blacklist all images, videos and audios, you can use:

const BLACKLIST = "image,audio,video";

1	const BLACKLIST = "image,audio,video";

Don’t forget to restart the shell, after changing settings…

Download and activate it via extensions.gnome.org: Recent Items

Thanks, this is a great extension,… I had no idea how to clear gnome-shell history, apparently deleting recently-used.xbel doesn’t do the trick, probably because it’s loaded into memory somewhere. So that hack probably only works if done from outside gnome-shell.

Anyways, I was thinking maybe an extension that enabled/disabled the recording of recently used files. Kind of like private mode in Firefox would be great. It shouldn’t necessarily clear the history, just allow me to stop recording the history. A thing that would be useful when accessing truecrypt partitions or external hard drives where I don’t need the files to show up in history later.

I tried looking for documentation of the JS api, but couldn’t really find any. Do you know where I can find an overview of methods on GtkRecentManager?
Kurt Fleisch sagt:

22. Januar 2012 um 22:29

thats a good idea, jonas. i have to check, how this is possible to implement (the JS-bindings are not well documented, and i’m new at this libs…). it’s on the todo-list :-)
Kurt Fleisch sagt:

26. Januar 2012 um 02:02

here is a doc: http://developer.gnome.org/gtkmm/stable/classGtk_1_1RecentManager.html

some functions are already implemented here: /usr/share/gnome-shell/js/misc/docInfo.js
i was searching in gconf/dconf for settings, but nothing found…

Thankyou for the amazing recent item extensions, i use it very often. Now that precise pangolin is out, colud you update the extension to gnome 3.4?
Thankyou so much!
Frà
Kurt Fleisch sagt:

2. Mai 2012 um 10:20

Hi Francesco,

thank you!
i will update the extension for gnome 3.4 as soon as the gnome-shell 3.4 will be available on debian unstable (i hope, this could be very soon: http://www.0d.be/debian/debian-gnome-3.4-status.html ), as i use debian on all my systems…

Hi Kurt,

Could you please update the extension to Gnome 3.8?

Thanks,

Robert
Paolo sagt:

27. April 2013 um 14:25

The Recent Items extension is very nice. Thank you for developing it and compliment to all of us.

When you have time, consider updating it for gnome 3.8.
Thiago Moreira sagt:

28. April 2013 um 07:08

To use with gnome 3.8, just add 3.8 in version list on file “metadata.json” locate in “/home/username/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/DesktopIconsSwitch@bananenfisch.net”
Kurt Fleisch sagt:

2. Mai 2013 um 00:59

Thanks Thiago! – i’m still on 3.6, but have updated the extensions by adding the version. Should be online at http://extensions.gnome.org/ now too!
