Hello Felix,
Is it possible to fill in struct ubus_object and struct ubus_object_type so that only one "catch all" method is defined and have the object available for lookup?
I can do:
struct ubus_method type_m = {
.name = "_",
.handler = NULL,
};
struct ubus_object_type obj_type = {
.n_methods = 1,
.methods = &type_m,
}
struct ubus_method obj_m = {
.name = NULL,
.handler = func,
};
struct ubus_object o = {
.name = “path/to/obj”,
.type = &obj_type;
.n_methods = 1,
.methods = &obj_m,
};
and libubus will be happy to call my handler for any method name as long as I define at least one method with a nonzero name length for the *type*. If (o.type == NULL) or (o.type->n_methods == 0) or (o.type->methods.name == NULL) or (o.type->methods.name == “") adding the object will succeed but the object cannot be looked up (its path does not appear when running `ubus list`).
Are objects with an empty signature not supported? If so, should adding such an object fail? If not, how can I setup a "catch all” (or empty) signature?
Thank you
