More examples
This page contains some other example code using ctypes. Note that they are not complete, and assume some code already shown on the main article.
Searching contacts by phone number
Searching contacts by phone number can be done using the osso_abook_query_phone_number() and e_book_get_contacts() functions:
ebook = ctypes.CDLL('libebook-1.2.so.5')
err = ctypes.c_void_p()
c_book = ebook.e_book_new_default_addressbook(ctypes.byref(err))
if not ebook.e_book_open(c_book, 1, 0):
print >>sys.stderr, "Couldn't load addressbook."
sys.exit(1)
# fuzzy search enabled to allow partial matches (refer to documentation)
c_query = osso_abook.osso_abook_query_phone_number("12345678", 1)
contacts = ctypes.c_void_p()
if not ebook.e_book_get_contacts(c_book, c_query, ctypes.byref(contacts), err):
print >>sys.stderr, "Couldn't get query results."
sys.exit(1)
The "contacts" is a GList which can be iterated over as explained here.
