Elektra  0.9.0
Plugin: dbusrecv

This plugin is a notification plugin, which receives a signal from D-Bus when the key database (KDB) has been modified. It is compatible with the sending D-Bus plugin.

Dependencies

Usage

The recommended way is to globally mount the plugin together with the dbus plugin:

kdb global-mount dbus dbusrecv

This plugin is designed to be used as a transport plugin for Elektra's notification feature. If notification is not enabled (i.e. in the tool kdb or in any other application that does not use elektraNotificationOpen()) this plugin performs no actions.

This plugin cannot be directly used to receive notifications. Applications that use the notification feature implicitly use it when this plugin is mounted globally.

Transport Plugin

Mount this plugin globally with default settings to use it as receiving transport plugin for Elektra's notification feature:

kdb global-mount dbusrecv

For the message format please see the dbus plugin documentation.
