mcp_account_storage_priority ()

gint
mcp_account_storage_priority (const McpAccountStorage *storage);

Gets the priority for this plugin.

Priorities currently run from MCP_ACCOUNT_STORAGE_PLUGIN_PRIO_DEFAULT (the default storage plugin priority) upwards. More-positive numbers are higher priority.

Plugins at a higher priority then MCP_ACCOUNT_STORAGE_PLUGIN_PRIO_KEYRING used to have the opportunity to "steal" passwords from the gnome keyring. It is no longer significant.

Plugins at a lower priority than the default plugin will never be asked to store any details, although they may still be asked to list them at startup time, and may asynchronously notify MC of accounts via the signals above.

When loading accounts at startup, plugins are consulted in order from lowest to highest, so that higher priority plugins may overrule settings from lower priority plugins.

Loading all the accounts is only done at startup, before the dbus name is claimed, and is therefore the only time plugins are allowed to indulge in blocking calls (indeed, they are expected to carry out this operation, and ONLY this operation, synchronously).

When values are being set, the plugins are invoked from highest priority to lowest, with the first plugin that claims a setting being assigned ownership, and all lower priority plugins being asked to delete the setting in question.

mcp_account_storage_get ()

gboolean
mcp_account_storage_get (const McpAccountStorage *storage,
                         McpAccountManager *am,
                         const gchar *account,
                         const gchar *key);

Get a value from the plugin's in-memory cache. Before emitting this signal, the plugin must call either mcp_account_manager_set_attribute(), mcp_account_manager_set_parameter(), or mcp_account_manager_set_value() and (if appropriate) mcp_account_manager_parameter_make_secret() before returning from this method call.

Note that mcp_account_manager_set_parameter() does not use the "param-" prefix, even if called from this function.

If key is NULL the plugin should iterate through all attributes and parameters, and push each of them into am , as if this method had been called once for each attribute or parameter. It must then return TRUE if any attributes or parameters were found, or FALSE if it was not responsible for account .

mcp_account_storage_set ()

gboolean
mcp_account_storage_set (const McpAccountStorage *storage,
                         const McpAccountManager *am,
                         const gchar *account,
                         const gchar *key,
                         const gchar *value);

The plugin is expected to either quickly and synchronously update its internal cache of values with value , or to decline to store the setting.

The plugin is not expected to write to its long term storage at this point. It can expect Mission Control to call either mcp_account_storage_commit() or mcp_account_storage_commit_one() after a short delay.

Plugins that implement mcp_storage_set_attribute() and mcp_account_storage_set_parameter() can just return FALSE here. There is a default implementation, which just returns FALSE.

mcp_account_storage_create ()

gchar *
mcp_account_storage_create (const McpAccountStorage *storage,
                            const McpAccountManager *am,
                            const gchar *manager,
                            const gchar *protocol,
                            GHashTable *params,
                            GError **error);

Inform the plugin that a new account is being created. manager , protocol and params are given to help determining the account's unique name, but does not need to be stored on the account yet, mcp_account_storage_set() and mcp_account_storage_commit() will be called later.

It is recommended to use mcp_account_manager_get_unique_name() to create the unique name, but it's not mandatory. One could base the unique name on an internal storage identifier, prefixed with the provider's name (e.g. goa__1234).

“created” signal should not be emitted for this account, not even when mcp_account_storage_commit() will be called.

mcp_account_storage_delete ()

gboolean
mcp_account_storage_delete (const McpAccountStorage *storage,
                            const McpAccountManager *am,
                            const gchar *account,
                            const gchar *key);

The plugin is expected to remove the setting for key from its internal cache and to remember that its state has changed, so that it can delete said setting from its long term storage if its long term storage method makes this necessary.

If key is NULL, the plugin should forget all its settings for account ,and remember to delete the entire account from its storage later.

The plugin is not expected to update its long term storage at this point.

mcp_account_storage_ready ()

void
mcp_account_storage_ready (const McpAccountStorage *storage,
                           const McpAccountManager *am);

Informs the plugin that it is now permitted to create new accounts, ie it can now fire its "created", "altered", "toggled" and "deleted" signals.

mcp_account_storage_commit ()

gboolean
mcp_account_storage_commit (const McpAccountStorage *storage,
                            const McpAccountManager *am);

The plugin is expected to write its cache to long term storage, deleting, adding or updating entries in said storage as needed.

This call is expected to return promptly, but the plugin is not required to have finished its commit operation when it returns, merely to have started the operation.

If the commit_one method is implemented, it will be called preferentially if only one account is to be committed. If the commit_one method is implemented but commit is not, commit_one will be called with account_name = NULL to commit all accounts.

mcp_account_storage_commit_one ()

gboolean
mcp_account_storage_commit_one (const McpAccountStorage *storage,
                                const McpAccountManager *am,
                                const gchar *account);

The same as mcp_account_storage_commit(), but only commit the given account. This is optional to implement; the default implementation is to call commit .

If both mcp_account_storage_commit_one() and mcp_account_storage_commit() are implemented, Mission Control will never pass account = NULL to this method.

mcp_account_storage_list ()

GList *
mcp_account_storage_list (const McpAccountStorage *storage,
                          const McpAccountManager *am);

Load details of every account stored by this plugin into an in-memory cache so that it can respond to requests promptly.

This method is called only at initialisation time, before the dbus name has been claimed, and is the only one permitted to block.

mcp_account_storage_get_identifier ()

void
mcp_account_storage_get_identifier (const McpAccountStorage *storage,
                                    const gchar *account,
                                    GValue *identifier);

Get the storage-specific identifier for this account. The type is variant, hence the GValue.

This method will only be called for the storage plugin that "owns" the account.

mcp_account_storage_get_additional_info ()

GHashTable *
mcp_account_storage_get_additional_info
                               (const McpAccountStorage *storage,
                                const gchar *account);

Return additional storage-specific information about this account, which is made available on D-Bus but not otherwise interpreted by Mission Control.

This method will only be called for the storage plugin that "owns" the account.

mcp_account_storage_get_restrictions ()

guint
mcp_account_storage_get_restrictions (const McpAccountStorage *storage,
                                      const gchar *account);

This method will only be called for the storage plugin that "owns" the account.

mcp_account_storage_name ()

const gchar *
mcp_account_storage_name (const McpAccountStorage *storage);

mcp_account_storage_description ()

const gchar *
mcp_account_storage_description (const McpAccountStorage *storage);

mcp_account_storage_provider ()

const gchar *
mcp_account_storage_provider (const McpAccountStorage *storage);

mcp_account_storage_owns ()

gboolean
mcp_account_storage_owns (McpAccountStorage *storage,
                          McpAccountManager *am,
                          const gchar *account);

Check whether account is stored in storage . The highest-priority plugin for which this function returns TRUE is considered to be responsible for account .

There is a default implementation, which calls mcp_account_storage_get() for the well-known key "manager".

Since: 5.15.0

mcp_account_storage_set_attribute ()

gboolean
mcp_account_storage_set_attribute (McpAccountStorage *storage,
                                   McpAccountManager *am,
                                   const gchar *account,
                                   const gchar *attribute,
                                   GVariant *value,
                                   McpAttributeFlags flags);

Store an attribute.

The plugin is expected to either quickly and synchronously update its internal cache of values with value , or to decline to store the attribute.

The plugin is not expected to write to its long term storage at this point.

There is a default implementation, which just returns FALSE. Mission Control will call mcp_account_storage_set() instead, using a keyfile-escaped version of value .

Since: 5.15.0

mcp_account_storage_set_parameter ()

gboolean
mcp_account_storage_set_parameter (McpAccountStorage *storage,
                                   McpAccountManager *am,
                                   const gchar *account,
                                   const gchar *parameter,
                                   GVariant *value,
                                   McpParameterFlags flags);

Store a parameter.

The plugin is expected to either quickly and synchronously update its internal cache of values with value , or to decline to store the parameter.

The plugin is not expected to write to its long term storage at this point.

There is a default implementation, which just returns FALSE. Mission Control will call mcp_account_storage_set() instead, using "param-" + parameter as key and a keyfile-escaped version of value as value.

Since: 5.15.0

void
mcp_account_storage_emit_altered_one (McpAccountStorage *storage,
                                      const gchar *account,
                                      const gchar *key);
