Description David Laban 2011-09-22 06:00:31 UTC
My echobot restarter daemon mechanism is far too bespoke and complicated. Switching to the well-tested mission-control is my task for the next few days.

    echobot: script that starts dbus-daemon and relies on
             service activation for everything else.
    o.fd.T.EchobotController: service that starts M.C. and
             attempts to bring accounts online. Also listens
             for and accepts incoming subscription requests.
    o.fd.T.Client.TextEcho: handles text chats and commands
    o.fd.T.Client.StreamedMediaEcho: handles StreamedMedia
             channels and uses hints to determine whether to
             echo, identity, playsong, storytime, ... them.
    mission-control: does what it does best.

WIP is on http://cgit.collabora.com/git/user/alsuren/telepathy-ashes.git/log/?h=mc-41117

Note that I will probs change the repo to telepathy-echobot rather than telepathy-ashes too.

got a little bit further. If someone can take a look at my wip commit and tell me why http://telepathy.freedesktop.org/spec/Client_Interface_Requests.html#Method:AddRequest isn't being called (media_echoer.py) that would be useful

Note also that I tried and failed to get the hints out of the request with a dbus call. I was confused, but it might have been because I wasn't loggging exceptions properly.
