A ncurses UI for connman

[Thibault GUITTET]

Hi,

I made an interface in ncurses and C for connman. Currently only basic
features of connman are implemented (but the code can be easily
extended). The UI is meant to be light and easy to use. As
aforementioned, it's written in C, in pure ncurses with json-c and
without glib.

Here is the repo: https://github.com/eurogiciel-oss/connman-json-client

In the 'packaging/' folder you will find packages files for Tizen
(using gbs), Yocto and Archlinux (using AUR).

Any feedback is appreciated.

Regards,
Thibault

question: settings and profiles for connman

[Benjamin Block]

Hejhej,

I just wanted to ask, if it is possible to configure connman in a way
that I can switch to specific settings depending on the location I am at
(no problem if I have to trigger this switch) and maybe fall back to
dhcpcd or other stuff like it, if I get to a new location.

Thing is, I use my laptop in 4 different locations, each location has
its own set of settings. 3 of them require me to use a specific ip, 1
even a specific firewall-setting (iptables). I'd like to configure one
"profile" for each of those location (state the config for each of my
devices [eth0, wlan0, wwan0]) and then let connman switch between these
profiles - likely by using a connmanctl-command. If I am at a new
location, then I'd fall back to all the fancy automation.

Is that possible and if yes, how? I was locking at the documentation
coming with connman, but they seem quite outdated in places (for
example, I was reading `config-format.txt` and tried to create such a
config at `/var/log/connman/work.conf`; but this was ignored
completely). Also I wonder how to tell connman how to ignore some of my
network-devices (I tried the command line option and the option
`/etc/connman/main.cfg`), it seems to ignore me quite good on this.

Any pointer how to do this or to some more up-to-date documentation
would be appreciated (I am not registered on the list).

[PATCH] ipconfig: Do not pass a NULL pointer to D-Bus

[Hannu Mallat]

connman_inet_ifname() may return a NULL pointer e.g. if the interface
does not exist in the kernel anymore but connman isn't yet aware of
that. Passing a NULL pointer to D-Bus may result in an abort, so check
the return value.
