#[repr(transparent)]pub struct Plugin { /* private fields */ }Expand description
GStreamer is extensible, so Element instances can be loaded at runtime.
A plugin system can provide one or more of the basic GStreamer
PluginFeature subclasses.
A plugin should export a symbol gst_plugin_desc that is a
struct of type GstPluginDesc.
the plugin loader will check the version of the core library the plugin was
linked against and will create a new Plugin. It will then call the
GstPluginInitFunc function that was provided in the
gst_plugin_desc.
Once you have a handle to a Plugin (e.g. from the Registry), you
can add any object that subclasses PluginFeature.
Usually plugins are always automatically loaded so you don’t need to call
load() explicitly to bring it into memory. There are options to
statically link plugins to an app or even use GStreamer without a plugin
repository in which case load() can be needed to bring the plugin
into memory.

sourcepub fn add_dependency(
&self,
env_vars: &[&str],
paths: &[&str],
names: &[&str],
flags: PluginDependencyFlags
)
pub fn add_dependency(
&self,
env_vars: &[&str],
paths: &[&str],
names: &[&str],
flags: PluginDependencyFlags
)
Make GStreamer aware of external dependencies which affect the feature set of this plugin (ie. the elements or typefinders associated with it).
GStreamer will re-inspect plugins with external dependencies whenever any of the external dependencies change. This is useful for plugins which wrap other plugin systems, e.g. a plugin which wraps a plugin-based visualisation library and makes visualisations available as GStreamer elements, or a codec loader which exposes elements and/or caps dependent on what external codec libraries are currently installed.
env_vars
None-terminated array of environment variables affecting the
feature set of the plugin (e.g. an environment variable containing
paths where to look for additional modules/plugins of a library),
or None. Environment variable names may be followed by a path component
which will be added to the content of the environment variable, e.g.
“HOME/.mystuff/plugins”.
paths
None-terminated array of directories/paths where dependent files
may be, or None.
names
None-terminated array of file names (or file name suffixes,
depending on flags) to be used in combination with the paths from
paths and/or the paths extracted from the environment variables in
env_vars, or None.
flags
optional flags, or GST_PLUGIN_DEPENDENCY_FLAG_NONE
sourcepub fn add_dependency_simple(
&self,
env_vars: Option<&str>,
paths: Option<&str>,

flags: PluginDependencyFlags
)
pub fn add_dependency_simple(
&self,
env_vars: Option<&str>,
paths: Option<&str>,
names: Option<&str>,
flags: PluginDependencyFlags
)
Make GStreamer aware of external dependencies which affect the feature set of this plugin (ie. the elements or typefinders associated with it).
GStreamer will re-inspect plugins with external dependencies whenever any of the external dependencies change. This is useful for plugins which wrap other plugin systems, e.g. a plugin which wraps a plugin-based visualisation library and makes visualisations available as GStreamer elements, or a codec loader which exposes elements and/or caps dependent on what external codec libraries are currently installed.
Convenience wrapper function for add_dependency() which
takes simple strings as arguments instead of string arrays, with multiple
arguments separated by predefined delimiters (see above).
env_vars
one or more environment variables (separated by ‘:’, ‘;’ or ‘,’),
or None. Environment variable names may be followed by a path component
which will be added to the content of the environment variable, e.g.
“HOME/.mystuff/plugins:MYSTUFF_PLUGINS_PATH”
paths
one ore more directory paths (separated by ‘:’ or ‘;’ or ‘,’),
or None. Example: “/usr/lib/mystuff/plugins”
names
one or more file names or file name suffixes (separated by commas),
or None
flags
optional flags, or GST_PLUGIN_DEPENDENCY_FLAG_NONE
sourcepub fn description(&self) -> GString

sourcepub fn plugin_name(&self) -> GString
pub fn plugin_name(&self) -> GString
sourcepub fn release_date_string(&self) -> Option<GString>
pub fn release_date_string(&self) -> Option<GString>
Get the release date (and possibly time) in form of a string, if available.
For normal GStreamer plugin releases this will usually just be a date in the form of “YYYY-MM-DD”, while pre-releases and builds from git may contain a time component after the date as well, in which case the string will be formatted like “YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MMZ” (e.g. “2012-04-30T09:30Z”).
There may be plugins that do not have a valid release date set on them.
Returns
the date string of the plugin, or None if not
available.
sourcepub fn load(&self) -> Result<Plugin, BoolError>
pub fn load(&self) -> Result<Plugin, BoolError>
Loads self. Note that the return value is the loaded plugin; self is
untouched. The normal use pattern of this function goes like this:
GstPlugin *loaded_plugin;
loaded_plugin = gst_plugin_load (plugin);
// presumably, we're no longer interested in the potentially-unloaded plugin
gst_object_unref (plugin);
plugin = loaded_plugin;Returns
a reference to a loaded plugin, or
None on error.

pub fn cache_data(&self) -> Option<&StructureRef>
sourcepub fn set_cache_data(&self, cache_data: Structure)
pub fn set_cache_data(&self, cache_data: Structure)
Adds plugin specific data to cache. Passes the ownership of the structure to
the self.
The cache is flushed every time the registry is rebuilt.
cache_data
a structure containing the data to cache
