# bluemon-dbus(7)

DBUS interface to bluemon(1)

## NAME

bluemon — DBUS interface to [bluemon(1)](/bluemon/1.md)

## DESCRIPTION

This manual page documents briefly the DBUS interface to [bluemon(1)](/bluemon/1.md)

## INTERFACE

Bluemon exposes 2 signals and 1 method. The bluemon process is registered  on the system bus as **cx.ath.matthew.bluemon.server**. The  exposed object is **/cx/ath/matthew/bluemon/Bluemon** and the  exposed interface is **cx.ath.matthew.bluemon.Bluemon**. The  signal interface is **cx.ath.matthew.bluemon.ProximitySignal**       and have the names **Connect** and **Disconnect**       which both have 1 parameter, which is the string representation of the  bluetooth device ID which has been connected or disconnected. The method  has the signature **Status(IN STRING address, OUT STRING address,**  **OUT BOOLEAN status, OUT UINT32 level)**. The in parameter may  be blank in which case the first connected device will be returned.  If  status is true (device is connected) then the address and level will  correspond to the device address and the reported link quality. Otherwise  they will set to the address asked for and -1 respectively.
