P2P hierarchy
|
||||
=============
|
||||
|
||||
Service net.connman.iwd
|
||||
Interface net.connman.iwd.p2p.Device [Experimental]
|
||||
Object path /net/connman/iwd/{phy0,phy1,...}
|
||||
|
||||
Methods array(on) GetPeers()
|
||||
|
||||
Returns a list (possibly empty) of detected P2P peers.
|
||||
Each record returned contains a tuple of the following
|
||||
values.
|
||||
|
||||
object Object
|
||||
|
||||
The net.connman.iwd.p2p.Peer object
|
||||
representing the peer device.
|
||||
|
||||
int16 SignalStrength
|
||||
|
||||
Peer's signal strength expressed in 100 * dBm.
|
||||
The value is the range of 0 (strongest signal)
|
||||
to -10000 (weakest signal.)
|
||||
|
||||
void RequestDiscovery()
|
||||
|
||||
Starts device discovery if not already happening and
|
||||
registers the calling D-Bus client as requiring device
|
||||
discovery. The discovery phase will be active until
|
||||
all registered clients have called ReleaseDiscovery()
|
||||
or disconnected from D-Bus.
|
||||
|
||||
Possible errors: [service].Error.AlreadyExists
|
||||
|
||||
void ReleaseDiscovery()
|
||||
|
||||
Unregisters the calling client as requiring device
|
||||
discovery. Clients should do this as soon as they
|
||||
stop displaying or otherwise using the list of
|
||||
discovered peer devices to avoid keeping the Wi-Fi
|
||||
adapter occupied unnecessarily.
|
||||
|
||||
Possible errors: [service].Error.NotAvailable
|
||||
|
||||
void RegisterSignalLevelAgent(object path,
|
||||
array(int16) levels)
|
||||
|
||||
Register the agent object to receive signal strength
|
||||
level change notifications on the
|
||||
net.connman.iwd.Station.SignalLevelAgent interface,
|
||||
see station-api.txt. The "levels" parameter decides
|
||||
the thresholds in dBm that will generate a call to
|
||||
the agent's Changed method whenever current RSSI
|
||||
crosses any of the values. The values must be
|
||||
passed in descending order. The number and distance
|
||||
between requested threshold values is a compromise
|
||||
between resolution and the frequency of system
|
||||
wakeups and context-switches that are going to be
|
||||
occuring to update the client's signal meter. Only
|
||||
one agent can be registered at any time.
|
||||
|
||||
Possible errors: [service].Error.InvalidArguments
|
||||
[service].Error.Failed
|
||||
[service].Error.AlreadyExists
|
||||
[service].Error.NotSupported
|
||||
|
||||
void UnregisterSignalLevelAgent(object path)
|
||||
|
||||
Unregister an existing agent.
|
||||
|
||||
Possible errors: [service].Error.InvalidArguments
|
||||
[service].Error.NotFound
|
||||
|
||||
Properties boolean Enabled [readwrite]
|
||||
|
||||
Whether local P2P device is started and ready to
|
||||
start device discovery, become discoverable by peers
|
||||
and connect to peers.
|
||||
|
||||
string Name [readwrite]
|
||||
|
||||
Sets local P2P device name as it is going to be
|
||||
presented on other devices that we will connect to
|
||||
or ones that discover us in scanning.
|
||||
|
||||
uint16 AvailableConnections [readonly]
|
||||
|
||||
Minimum number of peers the hardware is capable of
|
||||
connecting to in the current configuration and in
|
||||
addition to any connections already established.
|
||||
Often 1 while idle and 0 if connected to a peer,
|
||||
connecting, disconnecting or otherwise busy.
|
||||
|
||||
A non-zero number is to be interpreted as meaning
|
||||
that the device is capable of making *at least*
|
||||
that many new connections as the final number may
|
||||
depend on parameters negotiated with future peers.

P2PPeer hierarchy
|
||||
=================
|
||||
|
||||
Service net.connman.iwd
|
||||
Interface net.connman.iwd.p2p.Peer [Experimental]
|
||||
Object path /net/connman/iwd/{phy0,phy1,...}/p2p_peers/{aa_bb_cc_dd_ee_ff}
|
||||
|
||||
Methods Disconnect()
|
||||
|
||||
If connected, disconnect from this peer.
|
||||
Connections are established by calling methods on
|
||||
the net.connman.iwd.SimpleConfiguration interface
|
||||
on the same object -- see wsc-api.txt.
|
||||
|
||||
Possible errors: [service].Failed
|

[service].NotConnected
|

|
||||
Properties string Name [readonly]
|
||||
|
||||
P2P Peer's display name
|
||||
|
||||
string DeviceCategory [readonly]
|
||||
|
||||
The category part of the peer's declared
|
||||
Primary Device Type.
|
||||
|
||||
string DeviceSubcategory [readonly, optional]
|
||||
|
||||
The Sub Category part of the peer's declared
|
||||
Primary Device Type.
|
||||
|
||||
object Device [readonly]
|
||||
|
||||
The object with a net.connman.iwd.p2p.Device
|
||||
interface that discovered this peer -- see
|
||||
p2p-api.txt.
|
||||
|
||||
boolean Connected [readonly]
|
||||
|
||||
Whether there's currently an active connection
|
||||
to this peer. This property is read-only and
|
||||
changes as a result of method calls on the
|
||||
net.connman.iwd.SimpleConfiguration interface
|
||||
on the same object -- see wsc-api.txt -- and
|
||||
calls to Disconnect on this interface.
