winreg --- Windows 註冊表存取

---

These functions expose the Windows registry API to Python. Instead of using an integer as the registry handle, a handle object is used to ensure that the handles are closed correctly, even if the programmer neglects to explicitly close them.

可用性: Windows.

在 3.3 版的變更: Several functions in this module used to raise a WindowsError, which is now an alias of OSError.

函式

This module offers the following functions:

winreg.CloseKey(hkey)

Closes a previously opened registry key. The hkey argument specifies a previously opened key.

備註

If hkey is not closed using this method (or via hkey.Close()), it is closed when the hkey object is destroyed by Python.

winreg.ConnectRegistry(computer_name, key)

Establishes a connection to a predefined registry handle on another computer, and returns a handle object.

computer_name is the name of the remote computer, of the form r"\\computername". If None, the local computer is used.

key is the predefined handle to connect to.

The return value is the handle of the opened key. If the function fails, an OSError exception is raised.

在 3.3 版的變更: See above.

winreg.CreateKey(key, sub_key)

Creates or opens the specified key, returning a handle object.

key is an already open key, or one of the predefined HKEY_* constants.

sub_key is a string that names the key this method opens or creates.

If key is one of the predefined keys, sub_key may be None. In that case, the handle returned is the same key handle passed in to the function.

If the key already exists, this function opens the existing key.

The return value is the handle of the opened key. If the function fails, an OSError exception is raised.

winreg.CreateKeyEx(key, sub_key, reserved=0, access=KEY_WRITE)

Creates or opens the specified key, returning a handle object.

key is an already open key, or one of the predefined HKEY_* constants.

sub_key is a string that names the key this method opens or creates.

reserved is a reserved integer, and must be zero. The default is zero.

access is an integer that specifies an access mask that describes the desired security access for the key. Default is KEY_WRITE. See Access Rights for other allowed values.

If key is one of the predefined keys, sub_key may be None. In that case, the handle returned is the same key handle passed in to the function.

If the key already exists, this function opens the existing key.

The return value is the handle of the opened key. If the function fails, an OSError exception is raised.

winreg.DeleteKey(key, sub_key)

Deletes the specified key.

key is an already open key, or one of the predefined HKEY_* constants.

sub_key is a string that must be a subkey of the key identified by the key parameter. This value must not be None, and the key may not have subkeys.

This method can not delete keys with subkeys.

If the method succeeds, the entire key, including all of its values, is removed. If the method fails, an OSError exception is raised.

winreg.DeleteKeyEx(key, sub_key, access=KEY_WOW64_64KEY, reserved=0)

Deletes the specified key.

key is an already open key, or one of the predefined HKEY_* constants.

sub_key is a string that must be a subkey of the key identified by the key parameter. This value must not be None, and the key may not have subkeys.

reserved is a reserved integer, and must be zero. The default is zero.

access is an integer that specifies an access mask that describes the desired security access for the key. Default is KEY_WOW64_64KEY. On 32-bit Windows, the WOW64 constants are ignored. See Access Rights for other allowed values.

This method can not delete keys with subkeys.

If the method succeeds, the entire key, including all of its values, is removed. If the method fails, an OSError exception is raised.

On unsupported Windows versions, NotImplementedError is raised.

winreg.DeleteValue(key, value)

Removes a named value from a registry key.

key is an already open key, or one of the predefined HKEY_* constants.

value 是用於識別要移除之值的字串。

winreg.EnumKey(key, index)

Enumerates subkeys of an open registry key, returning a string.

key is an already open key, or one of the predefined HKEY_* constants.

index is an integer that identifies the index of the key to retrieve.

The function retrieves the name of one subkey each time it is called. It is typically called repeatedly until an OSError exception is raised, indicating, no more values are available.

在 3.3 版的變更: See above.

winreg.EnumValue(key, index)

Enumerates values of an open registry key, returning a tuple.

key is an already open key, or one of the predefined HKEY_* constants.

index is an integer that identifies the index of the value to retrieve.

The function retrieves the name of one subkey each time it is called. It is typically called repeatedly, until an OSError exception is raised, indicating no more values.

The result is a tuple of 3 items:

Index	含義
0	A string that identifies the value name
1	An object that holds the value data, and whose type depends on the underlying registry type
2	An integer that identifies the type of the value data (see table in docs for SetValueEx())

winreg.ExpandEnvironmentStrings(str)

Expands environment variable placeholders %NAME% in strings like REG_EXPAND_SZ:

>>> ExpandEnvironmentStrings('%windir%')
'C:\\Windows'

winreg.FlushKey(key)

Writes all the attributes of a key to the registry.

key is an already open key, or one of the predefined HKEY_* constants.

It is not necessary to call FlushKey() to change a key. Registry changes are flushed to disk by the registry using its lazy flusher. Registry changes are also flushed to disk at system shutdown. Unlike CloseKey(), the FlushKey() method returns only when all the data has been written to the registry. An application should only call FlushKey() if it requires absolute certainty that registry changes are on disk.

備註

If you don't know whether a FlushKey() call is required, it probably isn't.

winreg.LoadKey(key, sub_key, file_name)

Creates a subkey under the specified key and stores registration information from a specified file into that subkey.

key is a handle returned by ConnectRegistry() or one of the constants HKEY_USERS or HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE.

sub_key is a string that identifies the subkey to load.

file_name is the name of the file to load registry data from. This file must have been created with the SaveKey() function. Under the file allocation table (FAT) file system, the filename may not have an extension.

A call to LoadKey() fails if the calling process does not have the SE_RESTORE_PRIVILEGE privilege. Note that privileges are different from permissions -- see the RegLoadKey documentation for more details.

If key is a handle returned by ConnectRegistry(), then the path specified in file_name is relative to the remote computer.

winreg.OpenKey(key, sub_key, reserved=0, access=KEY_READ)

winreg.OpenKeyEx(key, sub_key, reserved=0, access=KEY_READ)

Opens the specified key, returning a handle object.

key is an already open key, or one of the predefined HKEY_* constants.

sub_key is a string that identifies the sub_key to open.

reserved is a reserved integer, and must be zero. The default is zero.

access is an integer that specifies an access mask that describes the desired security access for the key. Default is KEY_READ. See Access Rights for other allowed values.

The result is a new handle to the specified key.

If the function fails, OSError is raised.

winreg.QueryInfoKey(key)

Returns information about a key, as a tuple.

key is an already open key, or one of the predefined HKEY_* constants.

The result is a tuple of 3 items:

Index	含義
0	An integer giving the number of sub keys this key has.
1	An integer giving the number of values this key has.
2	An integer giving when the key was last modified (if available) as 100's of nanoseconds since Jan 1, 1601.

winreg.QueryValue(key, sub_key)

Retrieves the unnamed value for a key, as a string.

key is an already open key, or one of the predefined HKEY_* constants.

sub_key is a string that holds the name of the subkey with which the value is associated. If this parameter is None or empty, the function retrieves the value set by the SetValue() method for the key identified by key.

Values in the registry have name, type, and data components. This method retrieves the data for a key's first value that has a NULL name. But the underlying API call doesn't return the type, so always use QueryValueEx() if possible.
