Hi,

It's not in devel yet, and the API will likely change a bit between now and 
when we consider it stable/supported API, but see 
https://github.com/sailfishos/sailfish-secrets/pull/22 for WIP generic 
interaction request, mediated by the system.  The primary use-case is 
passphrase input, but the intention is to allow different input types (e.g. 
confirmation vs PIN vs passphrase vs ...) eventually.

Best regards,
Chris.

Subject: [SailfishDevel] Prompt from daemon

Hi

Im looking for options to get a yes/no prompt from a daemon process, something 
like the BT pair popup ideally.

So far, the only option i can think of is to use nemo notifications.  After 
much trying, I finally managed to get a preview popup, and guess I should be 
able to change that to a timeout popup.  The only problem is that there can 
only be a single reply, so i'll have to have a click as a yes, and otherwise 
assume no.  It would be good if lipstick could support the desktop notification 
standard more fully with additional replies, as this is hinted at in the 
example docs (2 reply actions) but with a note underneath that lipstick only 
supports the 'default' reply.

Another way, which im not sure is possible is to somehow invoke the system BT 
popup, is that possible?

Then, there is how calendar notifications work, they have swipe up/down, how 
are they invoked?

Finally, I could have a helper app invoked by the popup, but I think i'd rather 
go with a timeout in that case.

Any other options?

Adam
