Methods
-------

.. rst-class:: interim-class

.. class:: CompletionContext
   :no-index:


   .. method:: get_activation() -> ~gi.repository.GtkSource.CompletionActivation

      Gets the mode for which the context was activated.










   .. method:: get_bounds() -> tuple[bool, ~gi.repository.Gtk.TextIter, ~gi.repository.Gtk.TextIter]

      Gets the bounds for the completion, which is the beginning of the
      current word (taking break characters into account) to the current
      insertion cursor.

      If ``begin`` is non-:const:`None`, it will be set to the start position of the
      current word being completed.

      If ``end`` is non-:const:`None`, it will be set to the insertion cursor for the
      current word being completed.










   .. method:: get_buffer() -> ~gi.repository.GtkSource.Buffer | None

      Gets the underlying buffer used by the context.

      This is a convenience function to get the buffer via the :obj:`~gi.repository.GtkSource.Completion`
      property.










   .. method:: get_busy() -> bool

      Gets the "busy" property. This is set to :const:`True` while the completion
      context is actively fetching proposals from registered
      :obj:`~gi.repository.GtkSource.CompletionProvider`'s.










   .. method:: get_completion() -> ~gi.repository.GtkSource.Completion | None

      Gets the :obj:`~gi.repository.GtkSource.Completion` that created the context.










   .. method:: get_empty() -> bool

      Checks if any proposals have been provided to the context.

      Out of convenience, this function will return :const:`True` if ``self`` is :const:`None`.










   .. method:: get_language() -> ~gi.repository.GtkSource.Language | None

      Gets the language of the underlying buffer, if any.










   .. method:: get_proposals_for_provider(provider: ~gi.repository.GtkSource.CompletionProvider) -> ~gi.repository.Gio.ListModel | None

      Gets the :obj:`~gi.repository.Gio.ListModel` associated with the provider.

      You can connect to :obj:`~gi.repository.GtkSource.CompletionContext`::model-changed to receive
      notifications about when the model has been replaced by a new model.



      .. versionadded:: 5.6





      :param provider: a :obj:`~gi.repository.GtkSource.CompletionProvider`





   .. method:: get_view() -> ~gi.repository.GtkSource.View | None

      Gets the text view for the context.










   .. method:: get_word() -> str

      Gets the word that is being completed up to the position of the insert mark.










   .. method:: list_providers() -> ~gi.repository.Gio.ListModel

      Gets the providers that are associated with the context.



      .. versionadded:: 5.6








   .. method:: set_proposals_for_provider(provider: ~gi.repository.GtkSource.CompletionProvider, results: ~gi.repository.Gio.ListModel | None = None) -> None

      This function allows providers to update their results for a context
      outside of a call to :obj:`~gi.repository.CompletionProvider.populate_async`.

      This can be used to immediately return results for a provider while it does
      additional asynchronous work. Doing so will allow the completions to
      update while the operation is in progress.







      :param provider: an :obj:`~gi.repository.GtkSource.CompletionProvider`


      :param results: a :obj:`~gi.repository.Gio.ListModel` or :const:`None`









Properties
----------

.. rst-class:: interim-class

.. class:: CompletionContext
   :no-index:
   

   .. attribute:: props.busy
      :type: bool

      The "busy" property is :const:`True` while the completion context is
      populating completion proposals.







   .. attribute:: props.completion
      :type: ~gi.repository.GtkSource.Completion

      The "completion" is the :obj:`~gi.repository.GtkSource.Completion` that was used to create the context.







   .. attribute:: props.empty
      :type: bool

      The "empty" property is :const:`True` when there are no results.

      It will be notified when the first result is added or the last
      result is removed.











Signals
-------

.. rst-class:: interim-class

.. class:: CompletionContext.signals
   :no-index:
   

   .. method:: provider_model_changed(provider: ~gi.repository.GtkSource.CompletionProvider, model: ~gi.repository.Gio.ListModel | None = None) -> None

      Emitted when a provider changes a model.

      This signal is primarily useful for :obj:`~gi.repository.GtkSource.CompletionProvider`'s
      that want to track other providers in context. For example, it can
      be used to create a "top results" provider.
