[−][src]Struct zbus::Proxy

pub struct Proxy<'a> { /* fields omitted */ }

A client-side interface proxy.

A Proxy is a helper to interact with an interface on a remote object.

Example

use std::result::Result;
use std::error::Error;
use zbus::{Connection, Proxy};

fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn Error>> {
    let connection = Connection::new_session()?;
    let p = Proxy::new(
        &connection,
        "org.freedesktop.DBus",
        "/org/freedesktop/DBus",
        "org.freedesktop.DBus",
    )?;
    // owned return value
    let _id: String = p.call("GetId", &())?;
    // borrowed return value
    let _id: &str = p.call_method("GetId", &())?.body()?;
    Ok(())
}

Note

It is recommended to use the dbus_proxy macro, which provides a more convenient and type-safe façade Proxy derived from a Rust trait.

Current limitations:

At the moment, Proxy doesn't:

  • cache properties
  • track the current name owner
  • prevent auto-launching

Implementations

impl<'a> Proxy<'a>[src]

pub fn new(
    conn: &Connection,
    destination: &'a str,
    path: &'a str,
    interface: &'a str
) -> Result<Self>[src]

Create a new Proxy for the given destination/path/interface.

pub fn new_owned(
    conn: Connection,
    destination: String,
    path: String,
    interface: String
) -> Result<Self>[src]

Create a new Proxy for the given destination/path/interface, taking ownership of all passed arguments.

pub fn connection(&self) -> &Connection[src]

Get a reference to the associated connection.

pub fn destination(&self) -> &str[src]

Get a reference to the destination service name.

pub fn path(&self) -> &str[src]

Get a reference to the object path.

pub fn interface(&self) -> &str[src]

Get a reference to the interface.

pub fn introspect(&self) -> Result<String>[src]

Introspect the associated object, and return the XML description.

See the xml module for parsing the result.

pub fn get_property<T>(&self, property_name: &str) -> Result<T> where
    T: TryFrom<OwnedValue>, [src]

Get the property property_name.

Effectively, call the Get method of the org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties interface.

pub fn set_property<'t, T: 't>(
    &self,
    property_name: &str,
    value: T
) -> Result<()> where
    T: Into<Value<'t>>, [src]

Set the property property_name.

Effectively, call the Set method of the org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties interface.

pub fn call_method<B>(&self, method_name: &str, body: &B) -> Result<Message> where
    B: Serialize + Type, [src]

Call a method and return the reply.

Typically, you would want to use call method instead. Use this method if you need to deserialize the reply message manually (this way, you can avoid the memory allocation/copying, by deserializing the reply to an unowned type).

pub fn call<B, R>(&self, method_name: &str, body: &B) -> Result<R> where
    B: Serialize + Type,
    R: DeserializeOwned + Type, [src]

Call a method and return the reply body.

Use call_method instead if you need to deserialize the reply manually/separately.

pub fn connect_signal<H>(
    &self,
    signal_name: &'static str,
    handler: H
) -> Result<()> where
    H: FnMut(&Message) -> Result<()> + Send + 'static, [src]

Register a handler for signal named signal_name.

Once a handler is successfully registered, call Self::next_signal to wait for the next signal to arrive and be handled by its registered handler.

If the associated connnection is to a bus, a match rule is added for the signal on the bus so that the bus sends us the signals.

Errors

This method can fail if addition of the relevant match rule on the bus fails. You can safely unwrap the Result if you're certain that associated connnection is not a bus connection.

pub fn disconnect_signal(&self, signal_name: &'static str) -> Result<bool>[src]

Deregister the handler for the signal named signal_name.

If the associated connnection is to a bus, the match rule is removed for the signal on the bus so that the bus stops sending us the signal. This method returns Ok(true) if a handler was registered for signal_name and was removed by this call; Ok(false) otherwise.

Errors

This method can fail if removal of the relevant match rule on the bus fails. You can safely unwrap the Result if you're certain that associated connnection is not a bus connection.

pub fn next_signal(&self) -> Result<Option<Message>>[src]

Receive and handle the next incoming signal on the associated connection.

This method will wait for signal messages on the associated connection and call any handlers registered through the Self::connect_signal method. Signal handlers can be registered and deregistered from another threads during the call to this method.

If the signal message was handled by a handler, Ok(None) is returned. Otherwise, the received message is returned.

pub fn handle_signal(&self, msg: &Message) -> Result<bool>[src]

Handle the provided signal message.

Call any handlers registered through the Self::connect_signal method for the provided signal message.

If no errors are encountered, Ok(true) is returned if a handler was found and called for, the signal; Ok(false) otherwise.
