Hi, I've followed the tutorial on the 0pointer blog [1] for creating a 'system' service. I am currently held up with two questions which would help me come up with a better design for my "inventory" program.
1. Is it possible to use sd-bus API as an inventory to store and retrieve data? Whether sd-bus internally would store the data in the bus forever until deleted, something like a message queue? 2. If above question has a positive answer, I am trying to get and set properties by creating a service (Example 1 in Reference - Busctl Man Page <https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/busctl.html>). I am doing this on the system bus, but I am not able to '*store the data in the bus'* as in the example. For now, I am only able to store data in the '*process memory' *as global variables. [2] doesn't seem to help much as the bus is not storing the data using SD_BUS_WRITABLE_PROPERTY. Is there a reference code or documentation I can refer to? Please advise and thanks in advance! -Guhan References: 1. http://0pointer.net/blog/the-new-sd-bus-api-of-systemd.html 2. https://github.com/systemd/systemd/blob/master/src/libsystemd/sd-bus/test-bus-objects.c
