Method

FwupdClientupdate_metadata_bytes_async

since: 1.5.0

Declaration [src] 

void
fwupd_client_update_metadata_bytes_async (
  FwupdClient* self,
  const gchar* remote_id,
  GBytes* metadata,
  GBytes* signature,
  GCancellable* cancellable,
  GAsyncReadyCallback callback,
  gpointer callback_data
)

Description [src]

Updates the metadata. This allows a session process to download the metadata and metadata signing file to be passed into the daemon to be checked and parsed.

The remote_id allows the firmware to be tagged so that the remote can be matched when the firmware is downloaded.

NOTE: This method is thread-safe, but progress signals will be emitted in the global default main context, if not explicitly set with fwupd_client_set_main_context().

Available since: 1.5.0

This method completes asynchronously. Use fwupd_client_update_metadata_bytes_finish() inside the GAsyncReadyCallback to obtain the result of the operation.
