       sd_bus_is_bus_client, sd_bus_set_monitor, sd_bus_is_monitor - Configure connection mode
       for a bus object

SYNOPSIS

       #include <systemd/sd-bus.h>

       int sd_bus_set_server(sd_bus *bus, int b, sd_id128_t id);

       int sd_bus_is_server(sd_bus *bus);

       int sd_bus_get_bus_id(sd_bus *bus, sd_id128_t *id);

       int sd_bus_set_bus_client(sd_bus *bus, int b);

       int sd_bus_is_bus_client(sd_bus *bus);

       int sd_bus_set_monitor(sd_bus *bus, int b);

       int sd_bus_is_monitor(sd_bus *bus);

DESCRIPTION

       sd_bus_set_server() configures the bus object as a server for direct D-Bus connections.  b
       enables/disables the server mode. If zero, the server mode is disabled. Otherwise, the
       server mode is enabled. Configuring a bus object as a server is required to allow
       establishing direct connections between two peers without going via the D-Bus daemon.  id
       must contain a 128-bit integer id for the server. If clients add a guid field to their
       D-Bus address string, the server id must match this guid or the D-Bus authentication
       handshake will fail. If no specific id is defined for the server, sd_id128_randomize(3)
       can be used to generate a random id instead.

       sd_bus_is_server() returns whether the server mode is enabled for the given bus object.

       sd_bus_get_bus_id() stores the D-Bus server id configured using sd_bus_set_server() (for
       server bus objects) or received during D-Bus authentication (for client bus objects) in
       id.

       sd_bus_set_bus_client() configures the bus object as a D-Bus daemon client.  b
       enables/disables the client mode. If zero, the client mode is disabled and the bus object
       should connect directly to a D-Bus server. Otherwise, the client mode is enabled and the
       bus object should connect to a D-Bus daemon. When connecting to an existing bus using any
       of the functions in the sd_bus_open(3) family of functions or any of the functions in the
       sd_bus_default(3) family of functions, the bus object is automatically configured as a bus
       client. However, when connecting to a D-Bus daemon by calling sd_bus_set_address(3)
       followed by sd_bus_start(3), the bus object should be manually configured as a bus client
       using sd_bus_set_bus_client(). By default, a bus object is not configured as a D-Bus
       daemon client.

       sd_bus_is_bus_client() returns whether the client mode is enabled/disabled for the given
       bus object.

       sd_bus_set_monitor() configures the bus object as a D-Bus monitor object.  b
       enables/disables the monitor mode. If zero, the monitor mode is disabled. If non-zero, the
       monitor mode is enabled. When the monitor mode is enabled, no messages may be sent via the
       bus object and it may not expose any objects on the bus. To start monitoring messages,
       call the org.freedesktop.DBus.Monitoring.BecomeMonitor method of the D-Bus daemon and pass
       a list of matches indicating which messages to intercept. See The D-Bus specification[1]
       for more information.

       sd_bus_is_monitor() returns whether the monitor mode is enabled/disabled for the given bus
       object.

RETURN VALUE

       On success, sd_bus_set_server(), sd_bus_get_bus_id(), sd_bus_set_bus_client() and
       sd_bus_set_monitor() return a non-negative integer. On failure, they return a negative
       errno-style error code.

       sd_bus_is_server(), sd_bus_is_bus_client() and sd_bus_is_monitor() return a positive
       integer when the server or client mode is enabled, respectively. Otherwise, they return
       zero.

   Errors
       Returned errors may indicate the following problems:

       -ECHILD
           The bus connection has been created in a different process.

       -EPERM
           The bus connection has already been started.

       -ENOPKG
           The bus cannot be resolved.

       -EINVAL
           A required parameter was NULL or b was zero and id did not equal SD_ID128_NULL.

       -ENOTCONN
           The bus is not connected.

NOTES

       These APIs are implemented as a shared library, which can be compiled and linked to with
       the libsystemd pkg-config(1) file.
