Description

An interface channels can implement to support a picture. Most of the time this will be implemented by channels implementing the Room1 interface. Note that this interface is not restricted to Text channels, and can also be used on Call channels.

Rationale:
This is a separate interface from RoomConfig1 because (a) it's possible some protocol might support pictures for 1:1 chats; and (b) it avoids downloading an unwanted picture in a GetAll request.

Methods

SetPicture (ay: Picture, s: MIME_Type) → nothing

Parameters

  • Picture — ay
  • The new picture.
  • MIME_Type — s
  • The MIME type.

Set the room's picture. Clients SHOULD look at the picture flags before calling this method as the user might not have permission to set the picture.

A successful return of this method indicates a successful change in picture, but clients should still listen for changes to the Picture property for further changes by other users or the server.


Possible Errors

  • Not Implemented
  • Raised when the requested method, channel, etc is not available on this connection.
  • Invalid Argument
  • Picture is somehow invalid: e.g. unsupported MIME type, too big, etc.
  • Permission Denied
  • The user is not permitted to perform the requested operation.

Properties

Accessed using the org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties interface.
(Permalink)

Picture — (ays) (Avatar)

Read only
When this property changes, the org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties.PropertiesChanged signal is emitted with the new value.

The picture representing this channel.

This property may change during the lifetime of the channel and MUST not be included in a channel request.

(Permalink)

Actor — s

Read only
When this property changes, the org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties.PropertiesChanged signal is emitted with the new value.

The normalized contact ID representing who last modified the picture, or the empty string if it is not known.

(Permalink)

ActorHandle — u (Contact_Handle)

Read only
When this property changes, the org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties.PropertiesChanged signal is emitted with the new value.

The handle corresponding to Actor, or 0 if the Actor is unknown.

(Permalink)

Timestamp — x (Unix_Timestamp64)

Read only
When this property changes, the org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties.PropertiesChanged signal is emitted with the new value.

A unix timestamp indicating when the picture was last modified, or INT_MAX64 if unknown.

(Permalink)

CanSet — b

Read only
When this property changes, the org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties.PropertiesChanged signal is emitted with the new value.

TRUE if the Picture property can be set by the user by calling SetPicture, otherwise FALSE.

If implementations are unsure of what this value should be it SHOULD still be set to what it believes the value is. As a result, clients should be aware that SetPicture can still fail even with this property set to TRUE.

(Permalink)

SupportedMIMETypes — as

Read only
This property is immutable which means that it can never change once the channel has been created. Immutable properties SHOULD appear in the channel detail list of NewChannels signals.
An array of supported MIME types (e.g. "image/jpeg"). Clients MAY assume that the first type in this array is preferred.
(Permalink)

MinimumHeight — u

Read only
This property is immutable which means that it can never change once the channel has been created. Immutable properties SHOULD appear in the channel detail list of NewChannels signals.
The minimum height in pixels of the picture, which MAY be 0.
(Permalink)

MinimumWidth — u

Read only
This property is immutable which means that it can never change once the channel has been created. Immutable properties SHOULD appear in the channel detail list of NewChannels signals.
The minimum width in pixels of the picture, which MAY be 0.
(Permalink)

RecommendedHeight — u

Read only
This property is immutable which means that it can never change once the channel has been created. Immutable properties SHOULD appear in the channel detail list of NewChannels signals.
The recommended height in pixels of the picture, or 0 if there is no preferred height.
(Permalink)

RecommendedWidth — u

Read only
This property is immutable which means that it can never change once the channel has been created. Immutable properties SHOULD appear in the channel detail list of NewChannels signals.
The recommended width in pixels of the picture, or 0 if there is no preferred width.
(Permalink)

MaximumHeight — u

Read only
This property is immutable which means that it can never change once the channel has been created. Immutable properties SHOULD appear in the channel detail list of NewChannels signals.
The maximum height in pixels of the picture, or 0 if there is no limit.
(Permalink)

MaximumWidth — u

Read only
This property is immutable which means that it can never change once the channel has been created. Immutable properties SHOULD appear in the channel detail list of NewChannels signals.
The maximum width in pixels of the picture, or 0 if there is no limit.
(Permalink)

MaximumBytes — u

Read only
This property is immutable which means that it can never change once the channel has been created. Immutable properties SHOULD appear in the channel detail list of NewChannels signals.
The maximum size in bytes of the picture, or 0 if there is no limit.
