Bug ID: 377675
Summary: Scripting wallpaper change works from interactive
console but not DBUS interface
Product: plasmashell
Version: 5.9.3
Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Desktop Containment
Assignee: se...@kde.org
Reporter: bharadwaj.raju...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: 1.0
A script for changing the wallpaper works in the Desktop Shell Scripting
Console
but not from the DBUS evaluateScript method.
Test script:
var allDesktops = desktops();
for (i=0;i<allDesktops.length;i++) {
d = allDesktops[i];
d.wallpaperPlugin = "org.kde.image";
d.currentConfigGroup = Array("Wallpaper",
"org.kde.image",
"General");
d.writeConfig("Image", "file:///usr/share/example.jpg")
}
What works:
Running it from the Desktop Shell Scripting Console.
Result: Wallpaper changes.
What doesn't:
Running it through the DBUS evaluateScript method. Example shell session:
script=$(echo 'var allDesktops = desktops();
for (i=0;i<allDesktops.length;i++) {
d = allDesktops[i];
d.wallpaperPlugin = "org.kde.image";
d.currentConfigGroup = Array("Wallpaper",
"org.kde.image",
"General");
d.writeConfig("Image", "file:///usr/share/example.jpg")
}'
)
dbus-send --session --dest=org.kde.plasmashell --type=method_call /PlasmaShell
org.kde.PlasmaShell.evaluateScript "string:$script"
Result: Returns successfuly -- but no change in wallpaper!
