How to Set a Property Value? #202
Description
I know I'm just doing something wrong, but can't figure out what it is. In this code I'm getting and setting the property value of an object. Getting the value works fine, but setting the value returns the following error:
No such method 'Set' in interface 'org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties' at object path '/KStars/Ekos/Capture' (signature 'sss')
Code in question:
package main
import (
"github.com/godbus/dbus/v5"
)
func main() {
conn, _ := dbus.SessionBus()
obj := conn.Object("org.kde.kstars", "/KStars/Ekos/Capture")
v, err := obj.GetProperty("org.kde.kstars.Ekos.Capture.camera")
if err != nil {
panic(err.Error())
}
println(v.Value().(string))
err = obj.SetProperty("org.kde.kstars.Ekos.Capture.camera", "CCD Simulator")
if err != nil {
panic(err.Error())
}
}
Example python code that works just fine:
#!/usr/bin/python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
import os
import time
import dbus
bus = dbus.SessionBus()
remote_object = bus.get_object("org.kde.kstars", "/KStars/Ekos/Capture")
props = dbus.Interface(remote_object, "org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties")
properties = props.GetAll("org.kde.kstars.Ekos.Capture")
props.Set("org.kde.kstars.Ekos.Capture", "camera", "CCD Simulator")
Here's a link to the results of introspecting the object with:
node, _ := introspect.Call(obj)
d, _ := xml.MarshalIndent(node, "", " ")
println(string(d))
This introspection shows a Set method on org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties.
So, can someone point out what I'm doing wrong here, please? I don't really have any experience working DBus at all. I'm managed to get signals, methods, and getting properties to work fine with this package, just not setting properties.
Thanks!
