Description

D-Feet is an easy to use D-Bus debugger. D-Feet can be used to inspect D-Bus interfaces of running programs and invoke methods on those interfaces.

Design

D-Feet needs your help. The current design was a quick one off that doesn't really fit any model other than showing off the internals of a D-Bus hierarchy. It is not optimised for actual debugging workflows. While it is a useful tool it can be much better. I am requesting that anyone who has a D-Bus development workflow to write up their day to day usage of D-Bus debugging tools.

Features

  • View names on any bus
  • View exported objects, interfaces, methods and signals
  • View the full command line of services on the bus
  • Execute methods with parameters on the bus and see their return values
  • Show values of properties
