Variant

class dbus_next.Variant(signature: Union[str, dbus_next.signature.SignatureTree, dbus_next.signature.SignatureType], value: Any, verify: bool = True)

A class to represent a DBus variant (type “v”).

• signature_type (SignatureType) – The parsed signature of this variant.

• value (Any) – The value of this variant. Must correspond to the signature.

Raises

InvalidSignatureError if the signature is not valid. SignatureBodyMismatchError if the signature does not match the body.
