I tried to follow the instructions to
https://kodi.wiki/view/Context_Item_Add-ons
to Point 2

to get the selected listitem, without success (on both Kodi 18/19)
the sys.listitem not exists

This is the add-on test that i use:

What am i doing wrong?

there's no kodi.context.item extension point in your addon.xml file?

[CastagnaIT]

Ah no...I thought it worked anyway
I asked too much hehe

so i add the menu to listitem:
menus = [('Test menu 1','RunPlugin(plugin://test.addon/?context)')]
listitem.addContextMenuItems(menus)

then after the RunPlugin callback i was thinking to get the selected item from sys
but i suppose it's not meant that way

[CastagnaIT]

I haven't found a good way to get the selected listitem

[ronie]

what info do you need from the listitem?
perhaps you can add whatever info you need to the RunPlugin() command?

python:
menus = [('Test menu 1','RunPlugin(plugin://test.addon/?context&label=somevideo&path=file.ext&year=1995&duration=1685)')]

listitem.addContextMenuItems(menus)

[CastagnaIT]

ah yes i understand what you means,
in this case the params are two:
TotalTime
ResumeTime

it would be possible, but i was hoping for a cleaner solution
because pass this data in to every RunPlugin URL to compose
increases the overall complexity of the code which creates the lists of directory listitem's
