AnyEvent::XMPP::Ext - Extension baseclass and documentation
This module also has documentation about the supported extensions and also is a
base class for all extensions that can be added via the
"add_extension" method of the classes that
derive from AnyEvent::XMPP::Extendable. (That are: AnyEvent::XMPP::Client,
AnyEvent::XMPP::Connection and AnyEvent::XMPP::IM::Connection)
- disco_feature
- This method can be overwritten by the extension and should return a list
of namespace URIs of the features that the extension enables.
This is the list of supported XMPP extensions:
- XEP-0004 - Data Forms (Version 2.8)
- This extension handles data forms as described in XEP-0004.
AnyEvent::XMPP::Ext::DataForm allows you to construct, receive and answer
data forms. This is neccessary for all sorts of things in XMPP. For
example XEP-0055 (Jabber Search) or also In-band registration.
- XEP-0030 - Service Discovery (Version 2.3)
- This extension allows you to send service discovery requests and define a
set of discoverable information. See also AnyEvent::XMPP::Ext::Disco.
- XEP-0054 - vcard-temp (Version 1.1)
- This extension allows the retrieval and storage of XMPP vcards as defined
in XEP-0054. It is implemented by AnyEvent::XMPP::Ext::VCard.
- XEP-0066 - Out of Band Data (Version 1.5)
- This extension allows to receive and send out of band data URLs and
provides helper functions to handle jabber:x:oob data. See also
AnyEvent::XMPP::Ext::OOB.
- XEP-0077 - In-Band Registration (Version 2.2)
- This extension lets you register new accounts "in-band". For
details please take a look at AnyEvent::XMPP::Ext::Registration.
- XEP-0078 - Non-SASL Authentication (Version 2.3)
- After lots of sweat and curses I implemented finally iq auth.
Unfortunately the XEP-0078 specifies things that are not implemented, in
fact the only server that worked was openfire and psyced.org.
So I de-analyzed the iq auth and now it just barfs the IQ set
out on the stream with the username and the password.
If you insist on XEP-0078 behaviour enable the
"anal_iq_auth" option when creating
the stream.
You can also completely disable iq auth, well, just see the
documentation of AnyEvent::XMPP::Connection
- XEP-0082 - XMPP Date and Time Profiles (Version 1.0)
- Implemented some functions to deal with XMPP timestamps, see
AnyEvent::XMPP::Util "to_xmpp_time",
"to_xmpp_datetime",
"from_xmpp_datetime".
They are meant as simple formatters for you, you will still
need to handle timezone stuff and such yourself.
- XEP-0086 - Error Condition Mappings (Version 1.0)
-
"A mapping to enable legacy entities to correctly handle errors from XMPP-aware entities."
This extension will enable sending of the old error codes when
generating a stanza error with for example the
"write_error_tag" method of
AnyEvent::XMPP::Writer.
Also if only the old numeric codes are supplied the
AnyEvent::XMPP::Error::Stanza class tries to map the numeric codes to
the new error conditions if possible.
- XEP-0091 - Delayed Delivery (Version 1.3)
- See also XEP-0203 below.
- XEP-0092 - Software Version (Version 1.1)
- The ability to answer to software version, name and operating system
requests and being able to send such requests is implemented in
AnyEvent::XMPP::Ext::Version.
- XEP-0114 - Jabber Component Protocol (Version 1.5)
- This extension allows you to connect to a server as a component and makes
it possible to implement services like pubsub, muc, or whatever you can
imagine (even gateways). See documentation of AnyEvent::XMPP::Component
and the example
"samples/simple_component".
- XEP-0153 - vCard-Based Avatars (Version 1.0)
- This extension allows to store and retrive avatars from vcards. On top of
that it will also signal others that you support avatars and that they
might have changed. See AnyEvent::XMPP::Ext::VCard.
- XEP-0199 - XMPP Ping (Version 1.0)
- You can send ping requests to other entities and also are able to reply to
them. On top of that the AnyEvent::XMPP::Ext::Ping extension implements a
connection timeout mechanism based on this.
- XEP-0203 - Delayed Delivery (Version 1.0)
- Both delayed delivery XEPs are supported and are implemented by
AnyEvent::XMPP::IM::Delayed which is a super class of
AnyEvent::XMPP::IM::Message and AnyEvent::XMPP::IM::Presence.
If you need to fetch delay from stanzas you caught yourself in
an event you can use a AnyEvent::XMPP::IM::Delayed object to parse/fetch
the delay out of the AnyEvent::XMPP::Node.
Use the functions described above in the XEP-0082 item to
decode the timestamps of delays.
