Re: Get uuid of connection



Ok, i could add a connection, but it is a system connection.
As far as i noted, in order to this connection I created be detected by the scripts i'm using, it has to be a user connection.
How to create a user connection in the command line?


s_con = { 'id': 'XXX', 'uuid': '5ef2d781-1197-44eb-8744-cd78b9c07315', 'type': '802-11-wireless', 'autoconnect': False, 'name': 'connection' }

s_wifi = { 'ssid': dbus.ByteArray("XXX"), 'mode': 'infrastructure', 'security': '802-11-wireless-security', 'name': '802-11-wireless' }

s_wsec = { 'key-mgmt': 'wpa-psk', 'wpa-key': 'xxx', 'name': '802-11-wireless-security' }

s_ip4 = { 'method': 'auto', 'name': 'ipv4' }

con = { 'connection': s_con, '802-11-wireless': s_wifi, '802-11-wireless-security': s_wsec, 'ipv4': s_ip4 }


sys_bus = dbus.SystemBus()
ses_bus = dbus.SessionBus()
proxy = sys_bus.get_object("org.freedesktop.NetworkManagerSystemSettings", "/org/freedesktop/NetworkManagerSettings")
iface = dbus.Interface(proxy, "org.freedesktop.NetworkManagerSettings")

try:
    iface.AddConnection(con)
except Exception, e:
    print e

Here's one:
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/tree/examples/python/add-system-connection.py

dbus-send(1) probably could do the job as well, e.g. if you prefer to
use shell scripts. These documents may be helpful as well:
http://projects.gnome.org/NetworkManager/developers/spec-08.html
http://projects.gnome.org/NetworkManager/developers/settings-spec-08.html

And to make the connection "run" without user intervention, you only
need to ensure that the "autoconnect" flag is "true". In fact, that flag
is "true" by default, so you won't really need to do anything.

Note that adding a system connection is a one-shot deal; you only need
to do it once. So if you can afford to use a GUI tool just once, you'll
probably find that nm-connection-editor is a much easier way to do it.
(Just check "Available for all users", and it'll get installed as a
system connection.)

Have a good one,
Daniel
