Title:
Add an accounts click hook
Status in “signon” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
Click packages need to be able to add new account types just as debian
packages can. I would suggest a click manifest definition similar to
below.
manifest.json:
{
"description": "My Description",
"framework": "ubuntu-sdk-14.10-dev2",
"architecture": "all",
"hooks": {
"my-application": {
"accounts": "my-accounts" <-- this refers to the name of a dir in
your click package
}
},
"icon": "icon",
"maintainer": "Ubuntu Developers <ubuntu-devel-disc...@lists.ubuntu.com>",
"name": "com.package.name",
"title": "A click package providing account types",
"version": "1.0.0"
}
And then in your click package provide the directory "my-accounts", following
the same structure as in /usr/share/accounts:
my-accounts:
├── applications
│ └── something.application
├── providers
│ └── something.provider
├── qml-plugins
│ ├── something
│ └──── Main.qml
├── services
│ └── yahoo-mail.service
└── service_types
└── ubuntuone.service-type
Your actual click hook file could be something like this:
Pattern: ${home}/.local/share/accounts/${id}
User-Level: yes
Hook-Name: accounts
You'd obviously need to monitor "~/.local/share/accounts/". In there
the click machinery will create symlinks to the directories specified
above.
Any click packaging would satisfy the requirements really, but I think
what I have specified above is pretty simple to both use and
implement.
