class SPWOPIAction
A simple class that defines constants for SharePoint WOPI (Web Application Open Platform Interface Protocol) action types.

simple
Purpose
This class serves as a container for WOPI action type constants used in SharePoint integrations. WOPI is a protocol that allows web applications to interact with Office documents. The class defines numeric identifiers for different action types: 'view' (0) for viewing documents and 'default' (3) for default actions. This is likely used to specify how Office documents should be opened or interacted with in a SharePoint environment.
Source Code
class SPWOPIAction:
def __init__(self):
pass
view = 0
default = 3
Parameters
| Name | Type | Default | Kind |
|---|---|---|---|
bases |
- | - |
Parameter Details
self: Standard instance reference for the class. The __init__ method takes no additional parameters and performs no initialization logic.
Return Value
Instantiation returns an SPWOPIAction object. The class itself doesn't have methods that return values, but provides access to class-level integer constants through the instance or class name.
Class Interface
Methods
__init__(self) -> None
Purpose: Constructor that initializes an SPWOPIAction instance. Currently performs no initialization logic.
Parameters:
self: The instance being initialized
Returns: None (implicitly returns the initialized instance)
Attributes
| Name | Type | Description | Scope |
|---|---|---|---|
view |
int | Constant representing the 'view' action type for WOPI operations, with a value of 0. Used to indicate documents should be opened in view-only mode. | class |
default |
int | Constant representing the 'default' action type for WOPI operations, with a value of 3. Used to indicate documents should be opened with default behavior. | class |
Usage Example
# Create an instance of SPWOPIAction
action = SPWOPIAction()
# Access action type constants via instance
view_action = action.view # Returns 0
default_action = action.default # Returns 3
# Or access directly via class (recommended for constants)
view_action = SPWOPIAction.view # Returns 0
default_action = SPWOPIAction.default # Returns 3
# Typical usage in conditional logic
if current_action == SPWOPIAction.view:
print("Opening document in view mode")
elif current_action == SPWOPIAction.default:
print("Opening document in default mode")
Best Practices
- This class acts as a namespace for constants. Consider accessing constants directly via the class name (SPWOPIAction.view) rather than creating instances.
- The __init__ method is empty and serves no purpose. Instances can be created but are unnecessary for accessing the constants.
- Consider using Python's Enum class instead for better type safety and semantics when defining action constants.
- The class variables are mutable integers. Avoid modifying these values at runtime as they represent fixed action type identifiers.
- This pattern is common in older Python code but modern alternatives like IntEnum from the enum module provide better structure and IDE support.
