- <interface name="org.freedesktop.Telepathy.Connection.Interface.Resources.DRAFT"
- tp:causes-havoc="experimental">
- <tp:added version="0.21.1">(draft 1)</tp:added>
- <tp:requires interface="org.freedesktop.Telepathy.Connection"/>
-
- <tp:docstring xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
- <p>An interface on connections to show contact attributes for
- specific resources of a contact, if the protocol supports
- multiple resources. Resources are most common in XMPP, hence the
- name of this interface, but they are also present in MSN, where
- they are called points of presence.</p>
-
- <p>When a client requests some attribute of a contact using its
- handle on the connection, the CM uses an algorithm to choose the
- most appropriate resource for the job. If there is only one
- resource, then the choice is obvious. If, however, there is more
- than one resource connected at any one time, the CM either
- aggregates all appropriate information to return (in the case of
- capabilities), or chooses one specific resource (in the case of
- presence).</p>
-
- <p>Resources in XMPP have names, and it can be extremely useful
- for the user to be able to know which resources of a contact are
- online, providing the names are human-readable. Before now,
- resources have not been exposed in Telepathy, but this interface
- attempts to change this.</p>
-
- <p>When using this interface, it is a little like using the
- <tp:dbus-ref namespace="org.freedesktop.Telepathy.Connection.Interface"
- >Contacts</tp:dbus-ref> interface, but only resource-specific
- attributes are ever returned. The resource-specific contact
- attributes are decided on by the CM, but XMPP's are listed
- below:</p>
-
- <ul>
- <li><tp:dbus-ref namespace="org.freedesktop.Telepathy.Connection.Interface">SimplePresence/presence</tp:dbus-ref></li>
- <li><tp:dbus-ref namespace="org.freedesktop.Telepathy.Connection.Interface">ContactCapabilities/capabilities</tp:dbus-ref></li>
- <li><tp:dbus-ref namespace="org.freedesktop.Telepathy.Connection.Interface">ClientTypes/client-types</tp:dbus-ref></li>

- <method name="GetResources" tp:name-for-bindings="Get_Resources">

- <tp:docstring xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
- <p>Whether the resources returned from <tp:member-ref>GetResources</tp:member-ref>
- are human readable or not.</p>
-
- <p>If the connection manager knows that all resource names are
- automatically generated, then the resource strings mean
- nothing to the user. Showing these strings in the UI would
- be confusing, so by setting this to
- Resources_Human_Readability_Never, the UI is advised not to
- show resources.</p>
-
- <p>If on the other hand, all resources are set to nice names
- (such as "office" or "home") then it might be wise to expose
- these strings in the UI, so this property would be set to
- Resources_Human_Readability_Maybe. This is the case in XMPP --
- most resources are set in a way that the user can deduce some
- information from them. The absence of an Always enum value is
- because in the case of XMPP, the resource string could be
- partially human-readable (as on Google Talk, where a resource
- of "home" is changed by the server to a unique string like
- "home_1234fdec") or not at all human-readable.</p>
