- string GetState()
+ array{object,dict} GetTechnologies()
- Return global connection state of a system. The
- same value is return via the State property.
-
- Possible Errors: [service].Error.InvalidArguments
-
- void RequestScan(string type)
-
- Request to trigger a scan for the specified
- technology. The empty string "" triggers scanning
- on all technologies.
-
- Possible Errors: [service].Error.InvalidArguments
-
- void EnableTechnology(string type)
-
- Enable specified type of technologies.
-
- Possible Errors: [service].Error.InvalidArguments

-
- Disable specified type of technologies.

- object LookupService(string pattern)
-
- Lookup a service matching the specific pattern.
-
- Examples are interface names like "eth0", "wlan0"
- etc. or service names like "hotspot" etc.
-
- In case of multiple services match the the pattern
- an error is returned.
-
- Possible Errors: [service].Error.InvalidArguments
- [service].Error.NotUnique
- [service].Error.NotFound
-
- object ConnectService(dict network)
-
- Connect to a network specified by the given
- properties.
-
- For connecting to a hidden WiFi network for example
- it is required that Type = "wifi" and the SSID
- properties are provided.
-
- When successful this method will return object
- path of the service object.
-
- This method can also be used to connect to an
- already existing service. It works exactly the
- same as executing the Connect method from the
- service interface.
-
- This method call will only return in case of an
- error or when the service is fully connected. So
- setting a longer D-Bus timeout might be a really
- good idea.
-
- When 'SessionMode' property is enabled, this method
- call is disallowed.
-
- Possible Errors: [service].Error.InvalidArguments
-
- void ProvisionService(string configuration)
-
- Provide a configuration for services.
-
- Service configuration is provided as a single string
- that follows the same format as configuration files,
- see config-format.txt. An exception to this format
- is that only one service can be provisioned per call.
-
- Possible Errors: [service].Error.InvalidArguments
-
object ConnectProvider(dict provider)
Connect to a VPN specified by the given provider
Possible Errors: [service].Error.InvalidArguments
- object CreateSession(dict settings, object notifier)
+ object CreateSession(dict settings, object notifier) [experimental]
Create a new session for the application. Every
application can create multiple session with
Every application should at least create one session
to inform about its requirements and it purpose.
- void DestroySession(object session)
+ void DestroySession(object session) [experimental]
Remove the previously created session.

-Signals PropertyChanged(string name, variant value)
+Signals TechnologyAdded(object path, dict properties)
- This signal indicates a changed value of the given
- property.
+ Signal that is sent when a new technology is added.
- StateChanged(string state)
+ It contains the object path of the technology and
+ also its properties.
- This signal is similar to the PropertyChanged signal
- for the State property.
+ TechnologyRemoved(object path)
- It exists for application state only care about the
- current state and so can avoid to be woken up when
- other details changes.
+ Signal that is sent when a modem has been removed.
-Properties string State [readonly]
+ The object path is no longer accessible after this
+ signal and only emitted for reference.
- The global connection state of a system. Possible
- values are "online" if at least one connection exists
- and "offline" if no device is connected.
+ ServicesChanged(array{object, dict}, array{object})
- In certain situations the state might change to
- the value "connected". This can only be seen if
- previously no connection was present.
+ Signals a list of services that have been changed
+ via the first array. And a list of service that
+ have been removed via the second array.
- array{string} AvailableTechnologies [readonly]
+ The list of added services is sorted. The dictionary
+ with the properties might be empty in case none of
+ the properties have changed. Or only contains the
+ properties that have changed.
- The list of available technologies. The strings
- are the same as the ones from the service types.
+ For newly added services the whole set of properties
+ will be present.
- array{string} EnabledTechnologies [readonly]
+ The list of removed services can be empty.
- The list of enabled technologies. The strings
- are the same as the ones from the service types.
+ This signal will only be triggered when the sort
+ order of the service list or the number of services
+ changes. It will not be emitted if only a property
+ of the service object changes. For that it is
+ required to watch the PropertyChanged signal of
+ the service object.
- array{string} ConnectedTechnologies [readonly]
+ PropertyChanged(string name, variant value)
- The list of connected technologies. The strings
- are the same as the ones from the service type.
+ This signal indicates a changed value of the given
+ property.
+
+Properties string State [readonly]
+
+ The global connection state of a system. Possible
+ values are "offline", "idle", "ready" and "online".
+
+ If the device is in offline mode, the value "offline"
+ indicates this special global state. It can also be
+ retrieved via the OfflineMode property, but is kept
+ here for consistency and to differentiate from "idle".
+
+ However when OfflineMode property is true, the State
+ property can still be "idle", "ready" or "online"
+ since it is possible by the end user to re-enable
+ individual technologies like WiFi and Bluetooth while
+ in offline mode.
- string DefaultTechnology [readonly]
+ The states "idle", "ready" and "online" match to
+ states from the services. If no service is in
+ either "ready" or "online" state it will indicate
+ the "idle" state.
- The current connected technology which holds the
- default route.
+ If at least one service is in "ready" state and no
+ service is in "online" state, then it will indicate
+ the "ready" state.
+
+ When at least one service is in "online" state,
+ this property will indicate "online" as well.
boolean OfflineMode [readwrite]
the limited usage of WiFi or Bluetooth devices might
be allowed in some situations.
- array{object} Technologies [readonly]
-
- List of technology object paths.
-
- array{object} Services [readonly]
-
- List of service object paths. The list is sorted
- internally to have the service with the default
- route always first and then the favorite services
- followed by scan results.
-
- This list represents the available services for the
- current selected profile. If the profile gets changed
- then this list will be updated.
-
- The same list is available via the profile object
- itself. It is just provided here for convenience of
- applications only dealing with the current active
- profile.
