Gnome2::Thumbnail(3)

💖 NAME 💖

Gnome2::Thumbnail — bestie, it's the thumbnail-flavored corner of the Gnome2 Perl bindings, and we are gonna walk through every single method like it's a group chat ✨

🌸 METHODS 🌸

okay so here's the whole roster, no skips, no "you can figure out the rest", we're doing all of them 💅

• boolean = $pixbuf->has_uri ($uri) — asks the pixbuf whether it's holding onto this particular URI, and hands you back a boolean. yes or no, iconic behavior 👑
  • $uri (string)
• boolean = $pixbuf->is_valid ($uri, $mtime) — vibe check for a URI + timestamp pair, returns a boolean fr fr
  • $uri (string)
  • $mtime (a timestamp)
• string = Gtk2::Gdk::Pixbuf->md5 ($uri) — class method moment, it gives you back a string 🍓
  • $uri (string)
• string = Gtk2::Gdk::Pixbuf->path_for_uri ($uri, $size) — another class method, returns a string (yes, a path-shaped one, the name is right there 😭)
  • $uri (string)
  • $size (Gnome2::ThumbnailSize)
• pixbuf = $pixbuf->scale_down_pixbuf ($dest_width, $dest_height) — scales the pixbuf down, returns a pixbuf. it's giving glow-down but make it intentional ✨
  • $dest_width (integer)
  • $dest_height (integer)
