Simplest way to read SMSes-content from a QMI-modem

[Ajay Garg]

Hi All.

I can tetrieve the metadata of the SMSes, via


#########################################################
logic at logic-desktop:~$ *mmcli -m 0 --messaging-list-sms*

Found 14 SMS messages:
    /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/SMS/34 (received)
    /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/SMS/35 (received)
    /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/SMS/36 (received)
    /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/SMS/37 (received)
    /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/SMS/38 (received)
    /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/SMS/39 (received)
    /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/SMS/40 (received)
    /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/SMS/41 (received)
    /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/SMS/42 (received)
    /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/SMS/43 (received)
    /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/SMS/44 (received)
    /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/SMS/45 (receiving)
    /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/SMS/46 (received)
    /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/SMS/47 (received)

But how do I actually read the SMS-content?


I tried using
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openshine/ModemManager/master/test/sms-get.py,
but it gives errors as follows ::

#########################################################
logic at logic-desktop:~$ *python sms-get.py
/org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/Modem/0*
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "sms-get.py", line 43, in <module>
    proxy = bus.get_object(MM_DBUS_SERVICE, objpath)

    message, timeout)
dbus.exceptions.DBusException: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown:
The name org.freedesktop.ModemManager was not provided by any .service files

What is the simplest/most-recommended way to read the SMS-contents?

Will be grateful for pointers.

Thanks and Regards,
Ajay
