dbus-event(7)

NAME

   dbus - event signalling that a dbus signal has been emitted

SYNOPSIS

   dbus   [BUS=BUS_NAME]  SIGNAL=SIGNAL  INTERFACE=INTERFACE  OBJPATH=PATH
   SENDER=SENDER DESTINATION=DESTINATION ARG0=VALUE ARGN=VALUE

DESCRIPTION

   The dbus event is generated by the upstart-dbus-bridge(8) daemon when a
   D-Bus  signal  is  emitted whose details match the dbus event condition
   and environment specified in a job's start on  or  stop  on  stanza  is
   modified.

   Arguments that are simple types (string, int, etc.) are translated into
   strings and placed as parameters on the event with the pattern ARG  and
   the   number   representing  the  placement  in  the  event  prototype.
   Parameters that are not a simple type  are  skipped,  with  the  number
   being incremented the same.

   The    BUS    parameter    is    optional   and   only   set   if   the
   upstart-dbus-bridge(8) daemon is started with the --bus-name parameter.
   The value of BUS will be the same as the value passed as the parameter.

EXAMPLES

   start   on   dbus   SIGNAL=NameAcquired  INTERFACE=org.freedesktop.DBus
   OBJPATH=/org/freedesktop/DBus               SENDER=org.freedesktop.DBus
   ARG0=com.mycorp.foo
          Start  job  when  a  particular  NameAcquired  D-Bus  signal  is
          received.
