The reworked Contractor infrastructure has landed to PPA!
We currently have "Set as wallpaper", "Extract here" and "Print" (for plain
text) shipped with the distro.
Other useful contracts you can get are Inkscape contracts (batch export to
svg/pdf and vacuuming defs, "inscape-contracts" package)
Status update!
Victor has designed and (together with Akhay) implemented a more
object-oriented API for Granite:
https://code.launchpad.net/~victored/granite/contractor-wrapper/+merge/159948
He has also updated Files to make use of it:
https://code.launchpad.net/~victored/pantheon-files/contracto
Thanks! Could you write what you want to see changed in the API to make it
easier to use on the merge request?

Awesome work on Contractor!
As for the Granite wrapper, I don't really see a lot of value in it
since it's still a string-based API similar to the one we had before.
It doesn't exploit Vala's object capabilities either. Is it really too
much to ask to request OO APIs for Granite?
Vala is obj
Hey guys,
We have a lot of progress to report! Thanks to Michael Lazarski, Akshay
Shekher and Tom Beckmann we now have a working implementation of Contractor
daemon using the new API. It's already much less buggy than the older one.
Akshay has also transitioned Granite's wrapper to Contractor D-b
