Python-Caja Add Context Menu Entry

Hi Archers,
I installed python-caja and added a new item to the context menu, but I can't figure out how to pass the caja's selected files to the script.

This is the code written so far:

import os
import urllib

import gi
gi.require_version('Caja', '2.0')
from gi.repository import Caja, GObject

class ColumnExtension(GObject.GObject, Caja.MenuProvider):
    def __init__(self):
        pass
    def menu_activate_cb(self, menu, file):         
            path = "/var/log/dmesg" #Replace with caja selected files
            os.system('zenity --warning --text="/usr/bin/notepadqq {}"'.format(path))
            os.system('/usr/bin/notepadqq {}'.format(path))


    def get_file_items(self, window, file):
        item = Caja.MenuItem(name='NotepadMenuProvider::Notepad', 
                                         label='Edit with Notepadqq', 
                                         tip='',
                                         icon='')
        item.connect('activate', self.menu_activate_cb, file)
        return item,

can someone help me? or indicate me an exhaustive documentation?
