parse
Description:
Parse method parameters returned by parse_request.
Deserialization details: - If signature is provided, <int> and <i4> can be deserialized to byte, int16, uint16, int32,
uint32, int64 or uint64. Otherwise it will be deserialized to int32. If the value is out of range for the target type it will return an error. -
<struct> will be deserialized to "a{sv}". signature could define another value type (e.g. "a{ss}"). - <array> will be
deserialized to "av". signature could define another element type (e.g. "as") or could be a tuple (e.g. "(ss)"). - <base64>
will be deserialized to "ay". - <string> will be deserialized to "s". - <dateTime.iso8601> will be deserialized to an unspecified
variant type. If signature is provided it must have the generic "v" type, which means there is no guarantee that it's actually a
datetime that has been received. variant_get_datetime must be
used to parse and type check this special variant. - signature must not have maybes, otherwise an error is returned. - Dictionaries
must have string keys, otherwise an error is returned.
