Gio.File.prototype.start_mountable

function start_mountable(flags: Gio.DriveStartFlags, start_operation: Gio.MountOperation, cancellable: Gio.Cancellable, callback: Gio.AsyncReadyCallback): void {
    // Gjs wrapper for g_file_start_mountable()
}
  

Starts a file of type #G_FILE_TYPE_MOUNTABLE. Using start_operation, you can request callbacks when, for instance, passwords are needed during authentication.

If cancellable is not null, then the operation can be cancelled by triggering the cancellable object from another thread. If the operation was cancelled, the error Gio.IOErrorEnum.cancelled will be returned.

When the operation is finished, callback will be called. You can then call Gio.File.prototype.mount_mountable_finish to get the result of the operation.
