How to manage signal 'draw' with Gtk.TextView() in python and display number lines?

Question

Hi evrybody pythonist enthousiast

This code in order to show how to manage draw signal instead of "expose_event" used to in gtk2 and how to display line number if you want it

the difference between gtk2 and gtk3 is some little difficult to understand

#!/usr/bin/env python
# coding: utf-8 
from gi.repository import Gtk,Gdk
from gi.repository import Pango


def recup_lignes(textbuffer,premier_y, dernier_y, coords_buffer, numeros):
    # On recupere l'iterateur du premier y.
    iter, top = textbuffer.get_line_at_y(premier_y)

    # On recupere la position de chaque iterateur et on l'ajoute 
    # a la liste. On s'arrete apres dernier_y.
    nombre,taille = 0,0
    while not iter.is_end():
        y, hauteur = textbuffer.get_line_yrange(iter)
        coords_buffer.append(y)
        num_ligne = iter.get_line()
        numeros.append(num_ligne)
        nombre += 1
        # suite nouvelle étude je le remet
        if (y + hauteur) >= dernier_y:
            break        
        iter.forward_line()
    return nombre

def on_text_view_draw(text_view, cairo_context):
    text_buffer = text_view.get_buffer()
    start,end = text_buffer.get_bounds()
    text = text_buffer.get_text(start,end,False)

    nlines = text.count("\n") + 1


    #collect size of visible part of window
    rectangle_visible = text_view.get_visible_rect()
    premier_y = rectangle_visible.y
    dernier_y = premier_y +rectangle_visible.height 

    # collect numeros & pixels to be display 
    numeros = []
    pixels = []    
    nombre = recup_lignes(text_view,premier_y, dernier_y, pixels, numeros)
    # Affichage de numéros internationalises !
    layout = text_view.create_pango_layout("")

    pos_horizontal = 2
    for i in range(nombre):
        x, pos = text_view.buffer_to_window_coords(Gtk.TextWindowType.RIGHT, 0, pixels[i])
        chaine = "<span weight='bold' foreground='red'>%d </span>" % numeros[i]
        layout.set_markup(chaine,len(chaine))
        # met les numeros dans la zone texte
        Gtk.render_layout(text_view.get_style_context(), cairo_context, pos_horizontal, pos, layout)

tooltip = u'textview avec numérotation de ligne\n\
<b>Warning</b> la numérotation ne fonctionne correctement que si on ne fait pas circuler le scrolling'


text_view = Gtk.TextView()    
text_view.set_border_window_size(Gtk.TextWindowType.RIGHT, 54)

window.show_all()

demo = False
if demo:
    for i in dir(Gtk.TextBuffer):
        print i
Gtk.main()
