Message API reference

The message API allows any object within pulseaudio to register a message
handler. A message handler is a function that can be called by clients using
PA_COMMAND_SEND_OBJECT_MESSAGE. A message consists at least of an object path
and a message command, both specified as strings. Additional parameters can
be specified using a single string in JSON format, but are not mandatory.

The message handler returns an error number as defined in def.h and also returns
a string in the "response" variable. Non-empty response will be in JSON format.

The reference further down lists available messages, their parameters
and return values.
