Gio.DBusAuthObserver

const Gio = imports.gi.Gio;

let dBusAuthObserver = new Gio.DBusAuthObserver();
  

The Gio.DBusAuthObserver type provides a mechanism for participating in how a Gio.DBusServer (or a Gio.DBusConnection) authenticates remote peers. Simply instantiate a Gio.DBusAuthObserver and connect to the signals you are interested in. Note that new signals may be added in the future

## Controlling Authentication # {#auth-observer}

For example, if you only want to allow D-Bus connections from processes owned by the same uid as the server, you would use a signal handler like the following:

|[ static gboolean on_authorize_authenticated_peer (GDBusAuthObserver *observer, GIOStream *stream, GCredentials *credentials, gpointer user_data) { gboolean authorized;

authorized = FALSE; if (credentials != NULL) { GCredentials *own_credentials; own_credentials = g_credentials_new (); if (g_credentials_is_same_user (credentials, own_credentials, NULL)) authorized = TRUE; g_object_unref (own_credentials); }

return authorized; } ]|
