dbus.lowlevel module¶
Low-level interface to D-Bus.
-
class
dbus.lowlevel.
PendingCall
¶ Bases:
object
Object representing a pending D-Bus call, returned by Connection.send_message_with_reply(). Cannot be instantiated directly.
-
block
()¶ Block until this pending call has completed and the associated reply handler has been called.
This can lead to a deadlock, if the called method tries to make a synchronous call to a method in this application.
-
cancel
()¶ Cancel this pending call. Its reply will be ignored and the associated reply handler will never be called.
-
get_completed
() → bool¶ Return true if this pending call has completed.
If so, its associated reply handler has been called and it is no longer meaningful to cancel it.
-
-
class
dbus.lowlevel.
Message
¶ Bases:
object
A message to be sent or received over a D-Bus Connection.
-
append
(*args, **kwargs)¶ Set the message’s arguments from the positional parameter, according to the signature given by the
signature
keyword parameter.The following type conversions are supported:
D-Bus (in signature) Python boolean (b) any object (via bool()) byte (y) string of length 1 any integer any integer type any integer double (d) any float object path anything with a __dbus_object_path__ attribute string, signature, object path str (must be UTF-8) or unicode dict (a{…}) any mapping array (a…) any iterable over appropriate objects struct ((…)) any iterable over appropriate objects variant any object above (guess type as below) Here ‘any integer’ means anything on which int() or long() (as appropriate) will work, except for basestring subclasses. ‘Any float’ means anything on which float() will work, except for basestring subclasses.
If there is no signature, guess from the arguments using the static method Message.guess_signature.
-
copy
() -> Message (or subclass)¶ Deep-copy the message, resetting the serial number to zero.
-
get_args_list
(**kwargs) → list¶ Return the message’s arguments. Keyword arguments control the translation of D-Bus types to Python:
Keywords: - byte_arrays : bool
If true, convert arrays of byte (signature ‘ay’) into dbus.ByteArray, a str subclass. In practice, this is usually what you want, but it’s off by default for consistency.
If false (default), convert them into a dbus.Array of Bytes.
- utf8_strings : bool
If true, return D-Bus strings as Python bytes objects (in UTF-8). If false (default), return D-Bus strings as Python unicode objects.
Most of the type mappings should be fairly obvious:
D-Bus Python byte (y) dbus.Byte (int subclass) bool (b) dbus.Boolean (int subclass) Signature (g) dbus.Signature (str subclass) intNN, uintNN dbus.IntNN, dbus.UIntNN (int or long subclasses) double (d) dbus.Double string (s) dbus.String (unicode subclass) (or dbus.UTF8String, bytes subclass, if utf8_strings set) Object path (o) dbus.ObjectPath (str subclass) dict (a{…}) dbus.Dictionary array (a…) dbus.Array (list subclass) containing appropriate types byte array (ay) dbus.ByteArray (str subclass) if byte_arrays set; or list of Byte struct ((…)) dbus.Struct (tuple subclass) of appropriate types variant (v) contained type, but with variant_level > 0

-

-
get_signature
() → Signature or None¶
-
get_type
() → int¶ Returns the type of the message.
-
static
guess_signature
(*args) → Signature [static method]¶ Guess a D-Bus signature which should be used to encode the given Python objects.

guess_signature
(*args) → Signature [static method]¶ Guess a D-Bus signature which should be used to encode the given Python objects.
The signature is constructed as follows:
Python D-Bus D-Bus type, variant_level > 0 variant (v) D-Bus type, variant_level == 0 the corresponding type anything with a __dbus_object_path__ attribute object path bool boolean (y) any other int subclass int32 (i) any other long subclass int64 (x) any other float subclass double (d) any other str subclass string (s) any other unicode subclass string (s) any other tuple subclass struct ((…)) any other list subclass array (a…), guess contents’ type according to type of first item any other dict subclass dict (a{…}), guess key, value type according to types for an arbitrary item anything else raise TypeError
