<h1>Service Class Reference</h1>
<code>from PyKDE4.nepomuk import *</code>
<p>
Inherits: QObject<br />
Namespace: <a href="../nepomuk/Nepomuk.html">Nepomuk</a><br />
<h2>Detailed Description</h2>
<p>\class Service nepomukservice.h Nepomuk/Service
</p>
<p>
Base class for all Nepomuk services.
</p>
<p>
A %Nepomuk service is intended to perform some kind of
operation on the %Nepomuk data storage. This can include
data gathering, data enrichment, or enhanced data query.
</p>
<p>
%Nepomuk services are started and managed by the %Nepomuk
server. Very much like KDED modules a %Nepomuk service
has autostart and start-on-demand properties. In addition
a %Nepomuk service can define an arbitrary number of
dependencies which are necessary to run the service. These
dependencies name other services.
</p>
<p>
To create a new %Nepomuk service one derives a new class from
Nepomuk.Service and exports it as a standard KDE module, i.e.
plugin.
</p>
<p>
<pre class="fragment">
 class MyService : public Nepomuk.Service
 {
    // do fancy stuff
 };
</pre>
</p>
<p>
Export it as a %Nepomuk service plugin:
</p>
<p>
<pre class="fragment">
 NEPOMUK_EXPORT_SERVICE(MyService, "mynepomukservice")
</pre>
</p>
<p>
A desktop file describes the service's properties:
</p>
<p>
<pre class="fragment">
 [Desktop Entry]
 Type=Service
 X-KDE-ServiceTypes=NepomukService
 X-KDE-Library=mynepomukservice
 X-KDE-Nepomuk-autostart=true
 X-KDE-Nepomuk-start-on-demand=false
 # Dependencies default to 'nepomukstorage'
 X-KDE-Nepomuk-dependencies=nepomukfoobar
 Name=My fancy Nepomuk Service
 Comment=A Nepomuk service that does fancy things
</pre>
</p>
<p>
The %Nepomuk server will automatically export all D-Bus
interfaces defined on the service instance. Thus, the
simplest way to export methods via D-Bus is by marking
them with .
