A logcontrol::LogControl1 frontend with zbus.

LogControl1 provides the D-Bus interface implementation. It receives the underlying logcontrol::LogControl1 as sole argument and exposes it over D-Bus, as a standard zbus D-Bus interface:

use logcontrol_zbus::{LogControl1, ConnectionBuilderExt};

#[async_std::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
    let control = create_log_control();
    let _conn = zbus::ConnectionBuilder::session()?
        .name("de.swsnr.logcontrol.SimpleServerExample")?
        .serve_log_control(LogControl1::new(control))?
        .build()
        .await?;

    // Do other things or go to wait forever
    std::future::pending::<()>().await;

    Ok(())
}

Note that for systemctl to find the log control interface with systemctl service-log-level and systemctl service-log-target you need to make sure that

  • the interface is registered under logcontrol::DBUS_OBJ_PATH, and
  • the unit file provides the claimed bus name in the BusName attribute.

Otherwise systemd will not be able to change the log level or target.

zbus DBus frontend for the logcontrol interface.

Usage

$ cargo add logcontrol-zbus
use logcontrol_zbus::ConnectionBuilderExt;

#[async_std::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
    // Use an implementation such as logcontrol-tracing
    let control = create_log_control();
    let _conn = zbus::ConnectionBuilder::session()?
        .name("de.swsnr.logcontrol.SimpleServerExample")?
        .serve_log_control(logcontrol_zbus::LogControl1::new(control))?
        .build()
        .await?;

    // Do other things or go to wait forever
    std::future::pending::<()>().await;

    Ok(())
}
