NAME
Net::Jabber - Jabber Perl Library
SYNOPSIS
Net::Jabber provides a Perl user with access to the Jabber Instant
Messaging protocol.
For more information about Jabber visit:
http://www.jabber.org
DESCRIPTION
Net::Jabber is a convenient tool to use for any perl script that would
like to utilize the Jabber Instant Messaging protocol. While not a
client in and of itself, it provides all of the necessary back-end
functions to make a CGI client or command-line perl client feasible and
easy to use. Net::Jabber is a wrapper around the rest of the official
Net::Jabber::xxxxxx packages.
There is are example scripts in the example directory that provide you
with examples of very simple Jabber programs.
NOTE: The parser that XML::Stream::Parser provides, as are most Perl
parsers, is synchronous. If you are in the middle of parsing a packet
and call a user defined callback, the Parser is blocked until your
callback finishes. This means you cannot be operating on a packet,
send out another packet and wait for a response to that packet. It
will never get to you. Threading might solve this, but as of the
writing of this, threading in Perl is not quite up to par yet. This
issue will be revisted in the future.
EXAMPLES
For a client:
use Net::Jabber;
my $client = new Net::Jabber::Client();
For a component:
use Net::Jabber;
my $component = new Net::Jabber::Component();
METHODS
The Net::Jabber module does not define any methods that you will call
directly in your code. Instead you will instantiate objects that call
functions from this module to do work. The three main objects that
you will work with are the Message, Presence, and IQ modules. Each one
corresponds to the Jabber equivalent and allows you get and set all
parts of those packets.
PACKAGES
For more information on each of these packages, please see the man page
for each one.
Net::Jabber::Client
This package contains the code needed to communicate with a Jabber
server: login, wait for messages, send messages, and logout. It uses
XML::Stream to read the stream from the server and based on what kind
of tag it encounters it calls a function to handle the tag.
Net::Jabber::Component
This package contains the code needed to write a server component. A
component is a program tha handles the communication between a jabber
server and some outside program or communications package (IRC, talk,
email, etc...) With this module you can write a full component in just
a few lines of Perl. It uses XML::Stream to communicate with its host
server and based on what kind of tag it encounters it calls a function
to handle the tag.
Net::Jabber::Protocol
A collection of high-level functions that Client and Component use to
make their lives easier through inheritance.
Net::Jabber::JID
The Jabber IDs consist of three parts: user id, server, and resource.
This module gives you access to those components without having to
parse the string yourself.
Net::Jabber::Message
Everything needed to create and read a <message/> received from the
server.
Net::Jabber::Presence
Everything needed to create and read a <presence/> received from the
server.
Net::Jabber::IQ
IQ is a wrapper around a number of modules that provide support for the
various Info/Query namespaces that Jabber recognizes.
Net::Jabber::Stanza
This module represents a namespaced stanza that is used to extend a
<message/>, <presence/>, and <iq/>. Ultimately each namespace is
documented in a JEP of some kind. http://jabber.org/jeps/
The man page for Net::Jabber::Stanza contains a listing of all
supported namespaces, and the methods that are supported by the objects
that represent those namespaces.
Net::Jabber::Namespaces
Jabber allows for any stanza to be extended by any bit of XML. This
module contains all of the internals for defining the Jabber based
extensions defined by the JEPs. The documentation for this module
explains more about how to add your own custom namespace and have it be
supported.
