Class Details¶

class NM.VpnServicePlugin(**kwargs)¶

Bases:: GObject.Object, Gio.Initable
Abstract:: Yes
Structure:: NM.VpnServicePluginClass

New in version 1.2.

classmethod get_secret_flags(data, secret_name)¶

Parameters:

data ({object: object}) – hash table containing VPN key/value pair data items
secret_name (str) – VPN secret key name for which to retrieve flags for

Returns:

True if the flag data item was found and successfully converted to flags, False if not

out_flags:: on success, the flags associated with secret_name

Return type:

(bool, out_flags: NM.SettingSecretFlags)

Given a VPN secret key name, attempts to find the corresponding flags data item in data. If found, converts the flags data item to NM.SettingSecretFlags and returns it.

New in version 1.2.

classmethod read_vpn_details(fd)¶

Parameters:

fd (int) – file descriptor to read from, usually stdin (0)

Returns:

True if reading values was successful, False if not

out_data:: on successful return, a hash table (mapping str:char*) containing the key/value pairs of VPN data items
out_secrets:: on successful return, a hash table (mapping str:char*) containing the key/value pairsof VPN secrets

Return type:

(bool, out_data: {object: object}, out_secrets: {object: object})

Parses key/value pairs from a file descriptor (normally stdin) passed by an applet when the applet calls the authentication dialog of the VPN plugin.

New in version 1.2.

disconnect()¶

Raises:: GLib.Error
Return type:: bool

New in version 1.2.

failure(reason)¶

Parameters:: reason (NM.VpnPluginFailure) –

New in version 1.2.

get_connection()¶

Return type:: Gio.DBusConnection

New in version 1.2.

secrets_required(message, hints)¶

Parameters:

message (str) – an information message about why secrets are required, if any
hints (str) – VPN specific secret names for required new secrets

Called by VPN plugin implementations to signal to NetworkManager that secrets are required during the connection process. This signal may be used to request new secrets when the secrets originally provided by NetworkManager are insufficient, or the VPN process indicates that it needs additional information to complete the request.

New in version 1.2.

set_config(config)¶

Parameters:: config (GLib.Variant) –

New in version 1.2.

set_ip4_config(ip4_config)¶

Parameters:: ip4_config (GLib.Variant) –

New in version 1.2.

set_ip6_config(ip6_config)¶

Parameters:: ip6_config (GLib.Variant) –

New in version 1.2.

set_login_banner(banner)¶

Parameters:: banner (str) –

New in version 1.2.

shutdown()¶: Shutdown the self and disconnect from D-Bus. After this, the plugin instance is dead and should no longer be used. It ensures to get no more requests from D-Bus. In principle, you don’t need to shutdown the plugin, disposing the instance has the same effect. However, this gives a way to deactivate the plugin before giving up the last reference.

New in version 1.12.

do_config(config) virtual¶

Parameters:: config (GLib.Variant) –
