Moves all the stuff that is needed to start DBus on macOS (which for some reason it needs several steps, involving the use of `launchctl`) into a single `startDBusDaemon()` function. Before, it was spread into `kdeconnectconfig.cpp`, `indicatorhelper_mac.cpp` and `dbushelper.cpp`.
It also removes checking for an existing DBus daemon and always starts our own, since in most cases we couldn't connect to it anyway. This, together with removing the sleep in the retries when polling for the DBus daemon from 3s to 100ms, makes the startup much faster, so I removed the loading splash screen.
- Add dummy args param to QProcess::startDetached
- Remove logging category from inline snippet. This was removed due to
being unused in non-windows builds.
This is here because the kdeconnect shortcut launches the
app, not the systray. The app launches the daemon via dbus
but without this, we don't have a systray.
Ideally the systray and daemon would be the same process.
Also ideally we would have a way to launch the daemon and
systray at boot, so people don't have to launch the app
just for the side effect of starting the daemon.
This reverts commit 1dcfaf5108.
The main thing it provides over QNetworkAccessManager is integration
with the CookieJar and using kio-http, but since we jsut exchange bytes
from another local device that's not interesting for us
Add the necessary bits for XDG activation to work
Move the code for launching the settings from the daemon to the respective processes so that we don't need to pass activation tokens over another process boundary
Better patch to replace !218.
- Auto and quick detection of previous D-Bus instance;
- Remove private D-Bus compile definition, only use it on macOS without an existing D-Bus instance;
- Safe reboot after crashes because the indicator is not relating on the kdeconnectd to run a D-Bus session;
- Safe exit after clicking on `Quit` in the systray.
More details in commit logs:
Only enable private D-Bus on macOS because the other platforms do not
need them.
The app should be able to easily detect the session bus from the env
DBUS_LAUNCHD_SESSION_BUS_SOCKET from launchd through launchctl.
Because https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/dbus/dbus/-/blob/master/dbus/dbus-sysdeps-unix.c#L4392
shows that it is the only probing method on macOS with launchd.
The D-Bus session bus can be easily found from launchd/launchctl
with DBUS_LAUNCHD_SESSION_BUS_SOCKET env. It can be an external one
(installed from HomeBrew) or an internal one (launched by a previous
instance followed by a crash).
The indicator helper on macOS can now automatically detect whether we can use a potentially
(with launchd/launchctl env set, or KDE Connect macOS
private_bus_address set) existed and usable session bus.
If previous bus is usable, just try to launch the kdeconnectd with us.
Otherwise, launch a private D-Bus daemon, export the launchd/launchctl
env, and run a kdeconnectd instance.
Everything works better and quicker now :)
The notification spec does not specify that the server must support <br> and thus it can show up literally in the notification. Since we already have a \n we can simply remove it
The key is a sha256 of both devices' certificates. Both should generate the
same key, so hey user can check they are pairing against the right device.
Thanks Matthias Gerstner <mgerstner@suse.de> for reporting this.
We have a few places that open the KCM, with different arguments.
Centralize the implementation in one place.
This makes it easier to switch to invoking systemsettings5 in the future (once https://invent.kde.org/plasma/systemsettings/-/merge_requests/11 is in).
It also makes sure the relevant device is selected when clicking on a pairing notification.
The function is exposed to DBus for the Plasmoid and potential third-party users.
CCBUG: 425660
This automatizes the generation of logging categories so a
kdeconnect-kde.categories is generated and installed to
/usr/share/qlogging-categories5/ so kdebugsettings can use it.
Also, sets the default logging level to Warning. So now the logs
of users won't be filled with debug messages but they can
modify the configuration easily with kdebugsettings.
