Subject: [RFC BlueZ v0 00/13] Add experimental org.bluez.Service1
Date: Mon,  6 May 2013 10:43:17 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1367829810-8262-1-git-send-email-mikel.astiz.oss@gmail.com> (raw)

From: Mikel Astiz <mikel.astiz@bmw-carit.de>

Beyond the desktop use-cases, some users (e.g. GENIVI) are interested in having profile-specific information and control interfaces exposed in D-Bus. Such APIs did exist in BlueZ 4 but were dropped for BlueZ 5 in favor of simpler API simplicity. This service-specific interfaces had a fairly low priority for BlueZ 5 and therefore the discussion was postponed.

This patchset proposes org.bluez.Service1 as an attempt to cover these needs. As compared to the former Device.ConnectProfile()/DisconnectProfile(), the approach has the following advantages:
- Multiple instances of the same UUID can be exposed.
- The state of each service can be exposed, without hackish lists like Device.ConnectedProfiles.
- It's ObjectManager-centric.
- The design should scale better if new properties are required in the future (supported features, service handle, etc.)

Mikel Astiz (13):
  test: Remove obsolete test script
  test: Add UUID alias table to bluezutils.py
  test: Support human-friendly UUIDs in test-device
  test: Show human-friendly UUIDs in list-devices
  dbus: Add new org.bluez.Service1
  dbus: Add Device property to org.bluez.Service1
  dbus: Add UUID property to org.bluez.Service1
  dbus: Add state property to org.bluez.Service1
  dbus: Add Connect/Disconnect to org.bluez.Service1
  doc: Add API documentation for org.bluez.Service1
  dbus: Deprecate old profile-connecting API
  test: Add test-service script
  test: Add --uuid to test-service
