Development Team/Presence Service Removal
Some notes follow about how we can replace the implementation of the signals and methods in the Presence Service by another that uses more fully the telepathy framework and is stateless.
@dbus.service.signal(PRESENCE_INTERFACE, signature="o") def ActivityAppeared(self, activity): pass
Is fired when the properties contained in org.laptop.Telepathy.ActivityProperties become all non-None
@dbus.service.signal(PRESENCE_INTERFACE, signature="o") def ActivityDisappeared(self, activity):
Is fired when the properties contained in org.laptop.Telepathy.ActivityProperties stop being all non-None, and when the last buddy leaves the activity.
A buddy is known to have left an activity when disappears (see BuddyDisappeared) and when the MembersChanged signal in org.freedesktop.Telepathy.Channel.Interface.Group says so.
@dbus.service.signal(PRESENCE_INTERFACE, signature="o") def BuddyAppeared(self, buddy): pass
@dbus.service.signal(PRESENCE_INTERFACE, signature="o") def BuddyDisappeared(self, buddy):
A buddy is known to have disappeared when PresenceUpdate notifies us it has gone offline.
@dbus.service.signal(PRESENCE_INTERFACE, signature="oos") def ActivityInvitation(self, activity, buddy, message): pass
@dbus.service.signal(PRESENCE_INTERFACE, signature="soos") def PrivateInvitation(self, bus_name, connection, channel, chan_type): pass
@dbus.service.method(PRESENCE_INTERFACE, in_signature="", out_signature="ao") def GetActivities(self): pass
@dbus.service.method(PRESENCE_INTERFACE, in_signature="s", out_signature="o") def GetActivityById(self, actid): pass
@dbus.service.method(PRESENCE_INTERFACE, in_signature="", out_signature="ao") def GetBuddies(self): pass
@dbus.service.method(PRESENCE_INTERFACE, in_signature="ay", out_signature="o", byte_arrays=True) def GetBuddyByPublicKey(self, key): pass
@dbus.service.method(PRESENCE_INTERFACE, in_signature="sou", out_signature="o") def GetBuddyByTelepathyHandle(self, tp_conn_name, tp_conn_path, handle): pass
@dbus.service.method(PRESENCE_INTERFACE, in_signature="", out_signature="o") def GetOwner(self): pass
@dbus.service.method(PRESENCE_INTERFACE, in_signature="", out_signature="so") def GetPreferredConnection(self): pass
@dbus.service.method(PRESENCE_INTERFACE, in_signature="sssa{sv}", out_signature="o", async_callbacks=("async_cb", "async_err_cb"), sender_keyword="sender") def ShareActivity(self, actid, atype, name, properties, async_cb, async_err_cb, sender): pass
@dbus.service.method(PRESENCE_INTERFACE, in_signature="as", out_signature="") def SyncFriends(self, keys): pass
@dbus.service.method(PRESENCE_INTERFACE, in_signature="", out_signature="") def RestartServerConnection(self): pass
