example - fetching icon from gnome theme

This is derived from some code I wrote for GRAMPS.  It attempts to find
the icon associated with a type within the specified theme.

----------------------------------------

_nautdir = "/usr/share/pixmaps/nautilus"
_pixdir = "/usr/share/pixmaps"
 
import gconf
import os
 
def nautilus_icon(theme,type):
 
    if type == "x-directory/":
        if theme:
            newicon = "%s/%s/i-directory.png" % (_nautdir,theme)
        else:
            newicon = "%s/gnome-folder.png" % _pixdir
        if os.path.isfile(newicon):
            return newicon
        return None
    else:
        icontmp = type.replace('/','-')
        if theme:
            newicon = "%s/%s/gnome-%s.png" % (_nautdir,theme,icontmp)
            if os.path.isfile(newicon):
                return newicon
            else:
                newicon = "%s/document-icons/gnome-%s.png" %
(_nautdir,icontmp)
                if os.path.isfile(newicon):
                    return newicon
        return None
 
if __name__ == "__main__":
     
    client = gconf.client_get_default()
    theme = client.get_string("/desktop/gnome/file_views/icon_theme")
 
    print nautilus_icon(theme,"image/jpeg")
    print nautilus_icon(theme,"x-directory/")
