Implemented Interfaces

UDisksClient implements GInitable and GAsyncInitable.

Description

UDisksClient is used for accessing the UDisks service from a client program.

Functions

UDISKS_CHECK_VERSION()

#define             UDISKS_CHECK_VERSION(major,minor,micro)

Macro to check against the version of the libudisks2 library that is being compiled against.

Parameters

major	The major version to check for.
minor	the minor version to check for.
micro	The micro version to check for.

Returns

TRUE if the version of the libudisks2 header files is the same as or newer than the passed in version.

udisks_client_new ()

void
udisks_client_new (GCancellable *cancellable,
                   GAsyncReadyCallback callback,
                   gpointer user_data);

Asynchronously gets a UDisksClient. When the operation is finished, callback will be invoked in the thread-default main loop of the thread you are calling this method from.

Parameters

cancellable	A GCancellable or `NULL`.
callback	Function that will be called when the result is ready.
user_data	Data to pass to `callback` .

udisks_client_new_finish ()

UDisksClient *
udisks_client_new_finish (GAsyncResult *res,
                          GError **error);

Finishes an operation started with udisks_client_new().

Parameters

res	A GAsyncResult.
error	Return location for error or `NULL`.

Returns

A UDisksClient or NULL if error is set. Free with g_object_unref() when done with it.

udisks_client_new_for_connection ()

void
udisks_client_new_for_connection (GDBusConnection *connection,
                                  GCancellable *cancellable,
                                  GAsyncReadyCallback callback,
                                  gpointer user_data);

Like udisks_client_new() but takes a GDBusConnection which will be used when connecting to the UDisks daemon over D-Bus. This is useful for unit tests which may want to use GTestDBus to create a D-Bus daemon on the session bus.

Parameters

connection	a GDBusConnection. If `NULL`, a system bus connection will be used.	[nullable]
cancellable	A GCancellable or `NULL`.
callback	Function that will be called when the result is ready.
user_data	Data to pass to `callback` .

udisks_client_get_object ()

UDisksObject *
udisks_client_get_object (UDisksClient *client,
                          const gchar *object_path);

Convenience function for looking up an UDisksObject for object_path .

Parameters

udisks_client_settle ()

void
udisks_client_settle (UDisksClient *client);

Blocks until all pending D-Bus messages have been delivered. Also emits the (rate-limited) “changed” signal if changes are currently pending.

This is useful in two situations: 1. when using synchronous method calls since e.g. D-Bus signals received while waiting for the reply are queued up and dispatched after the synchronous call ends; and

when using asynchronous calls where the return value references a newly created object (such as the Manager.LoopSetup() method).

Parameters

client

A UDisksClient.

udisks_client_queue_changed ()

void
udisks_client_queue_changed (UDisksClient *client);

Queues up a “changed” signal and rate-limit it. See the documentation for the “changed” property for more information.

Gets the RAID device (e.g. /dev/md0) for raid .

In the case of a split-brain syndrome, it is undefined which RAID device is returned. For example this can happen if /dev/sda and /dev/sdb are components of a two-disk RAID-1 and /dev/md0 and /dev/md1 are two degraded arrays, each one using exactly one of the two devices. Use udisks_client_get_all_blocks_for_mdraid() to get all RAID devices.

Like udisks_client_get_partition_type_for_display() but also takes the partition table subtype into account, if available. This is useful in scenarios where different subtypes is using the same partition type.

Parameters

client	A UDisksClient.
partition_table_type	A partitioning type e.g. 'dos' or 'gpt'.
partition_table_subtype	A partitioning subtype or `NULL`.
partition_type	A partition type.

Returns

A description of partition_type or NULL if unknown.

Types and Values

UDISKS_MAJOR_VERSION

#define UDISKS_MAJOR_VERSION 2

The major version of the libudisks2 header files.

UDISKS_MINOR_VERSION

#define UDISKS_MINOR_VERSION 10

The minor version of the libudisks2 header files.

UDISKS_MICRO_VERSION

#define UDISKS_MICRO_VERSION 90

The micro version of the libudisks2 header files.

UDisksClient

typedef struct _UDisksClient UDisksClient;

The UDisksClient structure contains only private data and should only be accessed using the provided API.

UDisksPartitionTypeInfo

typedef struct {
  const gchar                  *table_type;
  const gchar                  *table_subtype;
  const gchar                  *type;
  UDisksPartitionTypeInfoFlags  flags;
} UDisksPartitionTypeInfo;

Detailed information about a partition type.

table_subtype is used to break the set of partition types for table_type into a logical subsets. It is typically only used in user interfaces where the partition type is selected.

This struct may grow in the future without it being considered an ABI break.

Members

const gchar *`table_type`;	A partition table type e.g. 'dos' or 'gpt'
const gchar *`table_subtype`;	A partition table sub-type.
const gchar *`type`;	A partition type.
UDisksPartitionTypeInfoFlags `flags`;	Flags from the UDisksPartitionTypeInfoFlags enumeration.

enum UDisksPartitionTypeInfoFlags

Flags describing a partition type.

Members

UDISKS_PARTITION_TYPE_INFO_FLAGS_NONE	No flags set.
UDISKS_PARTITION_TYPE_INFO_FLAGS_SWAP	Partition type is used for swap.
UDISKS_PARTITION_TYPE_INFO_FLAGS_RAID	Partition type is used for RAID/LVM or similar.
UDISKS_PARTITION_TYPE_INFO_FLAGS_HIDDEN	Partition type indicates the partition is hidden (e.g. 'dos' type 0x1b "Hidden W95 FAT32"). Note that this is not the same as user-toggleable attributes/flags for a partition.
UDISKS_PARTITION_TYPE_INFO_FLAGS_CREATE_ONLY	Partition type can only be used when creating a partition and e.g. should not be selectable in a "change partition type" user interface (e.g. 'dos' type 0x05, 0x0f and 0x85 for extended partitions).
UDISKS_PARTITION_TYPE_INFO_FLAGS_SYSTEM	Partition type indicates the partition is part of the system / bootloader (e.g. 'dos' types 0xee, 0xff, 'gpt' types for 'EFI System partition' and 'BIOS Boot partition').

Property Details

The `“bus-connection”` property

  “bus-connection”           GDBusConnection *

The GDBusConnection used to create the “object-manager”, or NULL if one wasn't specified during construction of the UDisksClient (in which case a system bus connection is used).

Owner: UDisksClient

Flags: Read / Write / Construct Only

Since: 2.9.0

The `“manager”` property

  “manager”                  UDisksManager *

The UDisksManager interface on the well-known /org/freedesktop/UDisks2/Manager object

Owner: UDisksClient

Flags: Read

The `“object-manager”` property

  “object-manager”           GDBusObjectManager *

The GDBusObjectManager used by the UDisksClient instance.

Owner: UDisksClient

Flags: Read

Signal Details

The `“changed”` signal

void
user_function (UDisksClient *client,
               gpointer      user_data)

This signal is emitted either when an object or interface is added or removed a when property has changed. Additionally, multiple received signals are coalesced into a single signal that is rate-limited to fire at most every 100ms.

Note that calling udisks_client_settle() will cause this signal to fire if any changes are outstanding.

For greater detail, connect to the “object-added”, “object-removed”, “interface-added”, “interface-removed”, “interface-proxy-properties-changed” and signals on the “object-manager” object.

Parameters

client	A UDisksClient.
user_data	user data set when the signal handler was connected.

Flags: Run Last
