Hey Ted thanks for responding. So I've been trying some things by looking at the Ubuntu One source. I did succeed in getting a item in the sync menu. However I'm also trying to implement the on/off button. When its toggled it returns a <GParamBoolean 'paused'> but how do I access the state? I can't seem to get the value from it. So how would I do that.
Also when I toggle the button for the first time my app doesn't seem to get a signal. Only the times after that. Do I need to listen to it in another way? I'm using this at the moment:
self.app.connect("notify::paused", self.sync_stage_change)

For the Python bindings we're relying on GObject Introspection for them, so you can add the library like this:I'm working on a Java application that needs to integrate with Ubuntu. Because there is not a nice way of integration with Unity I'm using a Python script that creates a app indicator. But I'm looking to integrate with the sync menu that came in Ubuntu 13.04. Is this possible in Python if so. How would I do that?
from gi.repository import SyncMenu
You might also look at the Java project to provide GObject Introspection. I haven't used it myself, but it looks like it's likely to have most of what you'd need completed already:
