# The uzbl event manager #

## Core ##

## Plugins ##

### mode.py ###
- Named modes with different settings
- Connects To: (MODE_CONFIG, MODE_CONFIRM)
- Watches: mode, default_mode
- Emits: MODE_CHANGED, MODE_CONFIRM

Changes between modes configured with MODE_CONFIG when the mode variable changes.

MODE_CONFIG <mode> <var> = <value>
	configures `mode` to have `var` set to `value`

MODE_CONFIRM <mode>
	Emitted when the mode has changed with a round trip to uzbl-core to allow
	the settings to take effect.
	emits MODE_CHANGE if `mode` matches the current mode

MODE_CHANGE <mode>
	Emitted when the mode has changed


### keycmd.py ###
- Tracks the currently entered command
- Connects To: KEY_PRESS, KEY_RELEASE, MOD_PRESS, MOD_RELEASE, (APPEND_KEYCMD,
  IGNORE_KEY, INJECT_KEYCMD, KEYCMD_BACKSPACE, KEYCMD_DELETE,
  KEYCMD_EXEC_CURRENT, KEYCMD_STRIP_WORD, KEYCMD_CLEAR, MODMAP,
  SET_CURSOR_POS, SET_KEYCMD)
- Emits: KEYCMD_UPDATE, KEYCMD_EXEC, MODCMD_UPDATE, MODCMD_EXEC, KEYCMD_CLEARED
  MODCMD_CLEARED

Maintains a command line that is manipulated by simple keypresses and a number
of events.

APPEND_KEYCMD <str>
    Appends `str` to the end of the keycmd

INJECT_KEYCMD <str>
    Inserts `str` at the cursor position

KEYCMD_BACKSPACE
    Removes the character at the cursor position in the keycmd

KEYCMD_DELETE
    Removes the character after the cursor position in the keycmd

KEYCMD_EXEC_CURRENT
    Raise a KEYCMD_EXEC with the current keylet and then clear the keycmd

KEYCMD_STRIP_WORD [<separator>]
    Removes the last word from the keycmd, similar to readline ^W

KEYCMD_CLEAR
    Clears the keycmd and raises KEYCMD_CLEARED

### bind.py ###
- Provides support for key bindings
- Connects To: (BIND, MODE_BIND, MODE_CHANGED, KEYCMD_UPDATE, KEYCMD_EXEC,
  MODCMD_UPDATE, MODCMD_EXEC)
- Emits: EXEC_BIND

Listens for changes in keycmd and modcmd and executes bindings configured by
BIND and MODE_BIND.

BIND <bind> = <command>
	short hand for MODE_BIND global <bind> = <command>

MODE_BIND <mode> <bind> = <command>
	Makes <bind> execute <command> while the current mode is matched by `mode`.
	`mode` is a comma separated list of modes in which this binding	should
	apply. The special mode 'global' will match all modes except any modes
	excluded by prefixing them with '-'.

	e.g
	MODE_BIND global,-insert <Up> = scroll vertical -20
	will make the Up-key scroll up in all modes except insert

EXEC_BIND <bind> <args> <kwargs>
	Emitted before executing `bind` with `args` as arguments and `kwargs` as
	keyword arguments. `bind` is a Bind instance, <args> a sequence and <kwargs>
	a dictionary.


### cookies.py ###
- Cookie synchronization and persistence
- Connects To: ADD_COOKIE, DELETE_COOKIE, (BLACKLIST_COOKIE, WHITELIST_COOKIE)

This plugin acts on the (ADD|DELETE)_COOKIE events by issuing add_cookie or
delete_cookie commands as appropriate to other connected uzbl instances.
However if the cookie is blacklisted (see below) the cookie will not be
forwarded and instead delete_cookie will be sent to the source so that the
cookie will not be included in future HTTP requests.

This plugin also maintains a mozilla cookies.txt compatible file with all your
persistent cookies in $XDG_DATA_HOME/uzbl/cookies.txt and all your session
cookies in $XDG_DATA_HOME/uzbl/session-cookies.txt.

The blacklist is configured using the BLACKLIST_COOKIE and WHITELIST_COOKIE
events. If any whitelist is set, then any cookie that is not whitelisted will
be rejected. Otherwise, only cookies that have been blacklisted will be
rejected.

BLACKLIST_COOKIE [<component> <re>]*
	Adds a new blacklist filter. cookies where the components specified by
	`component` matches the regular expression `re` will be filtered. component
	may be either 0-5 or any of the symbolic names domain, path, name, value,
	scheme, expires

	for example to block all cookies which name is "__utm" followed by a single
	character (google analytics cookies) do.
	request BLACKLIST_COOKIE name '^__utm.$'

WHITELIST_COOKIE [<component> <re>]*
	Adds a new whitelist filter. cookies where the components specified by
	`component` matches the regular expression `re` will be allowed. component
	may be any of the components allowed for the BLACKLIST_COOKIE event

### history.py ###
- Status bar command history
- Connects To: (KEYCMD_EXEC, HISTORY_PREV, HISTORY_NEXT, HISTORY_SEARCH)

Records commands that are typed into the status bar so that they can be
recalled. The same history is shared by all uzbl instances connected to the
same event manager.

HISTORY_PREV
  Iterates backwards through commands that have been issued (filtered by the
  last HISTORY_SEARCH if applicable).

HISTORY_NEXT
  Iterates forwards through commands that have been issued (filtered by the
  last HISTORY_SEARCH if applicable).

HISTORY_SEARCH <string>
  Searches backwards through command history for an exact string.
