BlueZ D-Bus Agent API description
**********************************


Agent Manager hierarchy
=======================

Service         org.bluez
Interface       org.bluez.AgentManager1
Object path     /org/bluez

                void RegisterAgent(object agent, string capability)

                        This registers an agent handler.

                        The object path defines the path of the agent
                        that will be called when user input is needed.

                        Every application can register its own agent and
                        for all actions triggered by that application its
                        agent is used.

                        It is not required by an application to register
                        an agent. If an application does chooses to not
                        register an agent, the default agent is used. This
                        is on most cases a good idea. Only application
                        like a pairing wizard should register their own
                        agent.

                        An application can only register one agent. Multiple
                        agents per application is not supported.

                        The capability parameter can have the values
                        "DisplayOnly", "DisplayYesNo", "KeyboardOnly",
                        "NoInputNoOutput" and "KeyboardDisplay" which
                        reflects the input and output capabilities of the
                        agent.

                        If an empty string is used it will fallback to
                        "KeyboardDisplay".

                        Possible errors: org.bluez.Error.InvalidArguments
                                         org.bluez.Error.AlreadyExists

                void UnregisterAgent(object agent)

                        This unregisters the agent that has been previously
                        registered. The object path parameter must match the
                        same value that has been used on registration.

                        Possible errors: org.bluez.Error.DoesNotExist

                void RequestDefaultAgent(object agent)

                        This requests is to make the application agent
                        the default agent. The application is required
                        to register an agent.

                        Special permission might be required to become
                        the default agent.

                        Possible errors: org.bluez.Error.DoesNotExist


Agent hierarchy
===============

Service         unique name
Interface       org.bluez.Agent1
Object path     freely definable

Methods         void Release()

                        This method gets called when the service daemon
                        unregisters the agent. An agent can use it to do
                        cleanup tasks. There is no need to unregister the
                        agent, because when this method gets called it has
                        already been unregistered.

                string RequestPinCode(object device)

                        This method gets called when the service daemon
                        needs to get the passkey for an authentication.

                        The return value should be a string of 1-16 characters
                        length. The string can be alphanumeric.

                        Possible errors: org.bluez.Error.Rejected
                                         org.bluez.Error.Canceled

                void DisplayPinCode(object device, string pincode)

                        This method gets called when the service daemon
                        needs to display a pincode for an authentication.

                        An empty reply should be returned. When the pincode
                        needs no longer to be displayed, the Cancel method
                        of the agent will be called.

                        This is used during the pairing process of keyboards
                        that don't support Bluetooth 2.1 Secure Simple Pairing,
                        in contrast to DisplayPasskey which is used for those
                        that do.

                        This method will only ever be called once since
                        older keyboards do not support typing notification.

                        Note that the PIN will always be a 6-digit number,
                        zero-padded to 6 digits. This is for harmony with
                        the later specification.

                        Possible errors: org.bluez.Error.Rejected
                                         org.bluez.Error.Canceled

                uint32 RequestPasskey(object device)

                        This method gets called when the service daemon
                        needs to get the passkey for an authentication.

                        The return value should be a numeric value
                        between 0-999999.

                        Possible errors: org.bluez.Error.Rejected
                                         org.bluez.Error.Canceled

                void DisplayPasskey(object device, uint32 passkey,
                                                                uint16 entered)

                        This method gets called when the service daemon
                        needs to display a passkey for an authentication.

                        The entered parameter indicates the number of already
                        typed keys on the remote side.

                        An empty reply should be returned. When the passkey
                        needs no longer to be displayed, the Cancel method
                        of the agent will be called.

                        During the pairing process this method might be
                        called multiple times to update the entered value.

                        Note that the passkey will always be a 6-digit number,
                        so the display should be zero-padded at the start if
                        the value contains less than 6 digits.

                void RequestConfirmation(object device, uint32 passkey)

                        This method gets called when the service daemon
                        needs to confirm a passkey for an authentication.

                        To confirm the value it should return an empty reply
                        or an error in case the passkey is invalid.

                        Note that the passkey will always be a 6-digit number,
                        so the display should be zero-padded at the start if
                        the value contains less than 6 digits.

                        Possible errors: org.bluez.Error.Rejected
                                         org.bluez.Error.Canceled

                void RequestAuthorization(object device)

                        This method gets called to request the user to
                        authorize an incoming pairing attempt which
                        would in other circumstances trigger the just-works
                        model, or when the user plugged in a device that
                        implements cable pairing. In the latter case, the
                        device would not be connected to the adapter via
                        Bluetooth yet.

                        Possible errors: org.bluez.Error.Rejected
                                         org.bluez.Error.Canceled

                void AuthorizeService(object device, string uuid)

                        This method gets called when the service daemon
                        needs to authorize a connection/service request.

                        Possible errors: org.bluez.Error.Rejected
                                         org.bluez.Error.Canceled

                void Cancel()

                        This method gets called to indicate that the agent
                        request failed before a reply was returned.
