on n900, you could install a dbus script in /etc/dbus-scripts.d and this script would filter dbus events so that only the ones you want will trigger it. the trigger event can then call a separate shell script.
how can i do the same in sailfish?

I found the following: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5344390/how-to-continuously-monitor-rhythmbox-for-track-change-using-bash/5345462#5345462 or http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/80143/how-to-create-a-daemon-which-would-be-listening-to-dbus-and-fire-script-on-messa
The following works on my Jolla:
dbus-monitor | while read LINE; do echo $LINE; done
This can be used for a simple script.

I'm not very familiar with systemd yet (started to learn since I got my Jolla). But I think this is something you can do with a systemd unit.
