+
+ object ConnectProvider(dict provider) [deprecated]
+
+ Connect to a VPN specified by the given provider
+ properties.
+
+ When successful this method will return the object
+ path of the VPN service object.
+
+ This method can also be used to connect to an
+ already existing VPN.
+
+ 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.
+
+ This API is deprecated and should not be used.
+ The VPN configuration API is provided by ConnMan
+ VPN daemon and user should use that one instead.
+
+ Possible Errors: [service].Error.InvalidArguments
+
+ void RemoveProvider(object path) [deprecated]
+
+ Remove a VPN specified by the object path.
void RegisterAgent(object path)
Possible Errors: [service].Error.InvalidArguments
-Signals PropertyChanged(string name, variant value)
+ void RegisterCounter(object path, uint32 accuracy, uint32 period) [experimental]
+
+ Register a new counter for user notifications.
+
+ The accuracy is specified in kilo-bytes and defines
+ a threshold for counter updates. Together with the
+ period value it defines how often user space needs
+ to be updated. The period value is in seconds.
+
+ This interface is not meant for time tracking. If
+ the time needs to be tracked down to the second, it
+ is better to have a real timer running inside the
+ application than using this interface.
+
+ Also getting notified for every kilo-byte is a bad
+ choice (even if the interface supports it). Something
+ like 10 kilo-byte units or better 1 mega-byte seems
+ to be a lot more reasonable and better for the user.
+
+ Possible Errors: [service].Error.InvalidArguments
+
+ void UnregisterCounter(object path) [experimental]
+
+ Unregister an existing counter.
+
+ Possible Errors: [service].Error.InvalidArguments
+
+ object CreateSession(dict settings, object notifier) [experimental]
+
+ Create a new session for the application. Every
+ application can create multiple session with
+ different settings. The settings are described
+ as part of the session interface.
+
+ The notifier allows asynchronous notification about
+ session specific changes. These changes can be
+ for online/offline state or IP address changes or
+ similar things the application is required to
+ handle.
+
+ Every application should at least create one session
+ to inform about its requirements and it purpose.
+
+ void DestroySession(object session) [experimental]
+
+ Remove the previously created session.
+
+ If an application exits unexpectatly the session
+ will be automatically destroyed.
+
+ object path, dict, fd RequestPrivateNetwork(dict options)
+ [experimental]
+
+ Request a new Private Network, which includes the
+ creation of a tun/tap interface, and IP
+ configuration, NAT and IP forwarding on that
+ interface.
+ An object path, a dictionary and a file descriptor
+ with IP settings are returned.
+
+ Possible Errors: [service].Error.InvalidArguments
+ [service].Error.NotSupported
+
+ void ReleasePrivateNetwork(object path) [experimental]
+
+ Releases a private network.
+
+ Possible Errors: [service].Error.InvalidArguments
+
+ void RegisterPeerService(dict specification, boolean master)
+ [experimental]
+
+ Registers a local P2P Peer service
+
+ Even if p2p techonology is not available, it will be
+ possible to register peer services, since a p2p
+ enabled WiFi device might appear at anytime. The
+ registered peer services will automatically be enabled
+ for the p2p WiFi device; the application does not need
+ to do any re-registration.
+
+ A Peer service belongs to the process that registers
+ it, thus if that process dies, its Peer services will
+ be destroyed as well.
+
+ The specification dict follows the format described
+ in the Peer API document.
+
+ ConnMan will be able to determine in most cases
+ whether to be the P2P Group Owner or not. If the
+ service for some reason must belong to a group that
+ this device manages, the "master" property can be
+ set. Do not enable the "master" property unless it
+ is absolutely sure that this is needed for the
+ provided peer service.
+
+ Possible Errors: [service].Error.InvalidArguments
+ [service].Error.AlreadyExists
+ [service].Error.NotSupported
+
+ void UnregisterPeerService(dict specification) [experimental]
+
+ Unregisters an existing local P2P Peer service
+
+ Possible Errors: [service].Error.InvalidArguments

+
+Signals TechnologyAdded(object path, dict properties)
+
+ Signal that is sent when a new technology is added.
+
+ It contains the object path of the technology and
+ also its properties.
+
+ TechnologyRemoved(object path)
+
+ Signal that is sent when a technology has been removed.
+
+ The object path is no longer accessible after this
+ signal and only emitted for reference.
+
+ ServicesChanged(array{object, dict}, array{object})
+
+ This signal indicates a change in the services.
+ List of all services currently registered is passed
+ via the first array. And a list of services that have
+ been removed via the second array.
+
+ The list of all 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.
+
+ For newly added services the whole set of properties
+ will be present.
+
+ The list of removed services can be empty.
+
+ 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.
+
+ PeersChanged(array{object, dict}, array{object}) [experimental]
+
+ This signal indicates a change in the peers. List of
+ all peers currently registered is passed via the first
+ array. And a list of peers that have been removed via
+ the second array.
+
+ The list of all peers 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.
+
+ For newly added peers the whole set of properties will
+ be present.
+
+ The list of removed peers can be empty.
+
+ This signal will only be triggered when the sort order
+ of the peer list or the number of peers changes. It
+ will not be emitted if only a property of the peer
+ object changes. For that it is required to watch the
+ PropertyChanged signal of the peer object.
+
+ TetheringClientsChanged(array{string}, array{string}) [experimental]
+
+ This signal indicates a change in the tethering clients.
+ List of all tethering clients currently registered connman is
+ passed via the first array. And a list of tethering clients that
+ have been removed via the second array.
+
+ PropertyChanged(string name, variant value)
This signal indicates a changed value of the given
property.
Properties string State [readonly]
The global connection state of a system. Possible
- values are "online" if at least one connection exists
- and "offline" if no device is connected.
+ values are "offline", "idle", "ready" and "online".
- In certain situations the state might change to
- the value "connected". This can only be seen if
- previously no connection was present.
+ 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".
- string Policy [readwrite]
+ 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.
- The global connection policy of a system. This
- allows to configure how connections are established
- and also when they are taken down again.
+ 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.
- Possible values are "single", "multiple" and "ask".
+ If at least one service is in "ready" state and no
+ service is in "online" state, then it will indicate
+ the "ready" state.
- For the single policy, the priority setting of the
- device defines which becomes the default connection
- when multiple are available.
+ 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} Profiles [readonly]
-
- List of profile object paths.
-
- array{object} Devices [readonly]
-
- List of device object paths.
+ boolean SessionMode [readwrite] [experminental][deprecated]
- array{object} Connections [readonly]
+ This property exists only for compatibility reasons
+ and does not affect ConnMan in any way.
- List of active connection object paths.
+ The default value is false.
