Class

MalcontentUserManager

unstable since: 0.14.0

Description [src]

final class Malcontent.UserManager : GObject.Object
{
  /* No available fields */
}

Gives access to the system user database.

Before it can be used, the user data needs to be loaded by calling mct_user_manager_load_async(). After then, changes to the user database are signalled using MctUserManager::user-added and MctUserManager::user-removed. Changes to the properties of individual users are signalled using GObject::notify on the user objects.

As well as exposing the (non-system) users in the database, the user manager can describe family relationships between the users. Currently, there is only one family supported on the system, containing all the normal and administrator user accounts. In the future, this may extend to supporting more families, with more roles for members within a family.
