DESCRIPTION
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)
Methods
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.
Supportet extensions
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.
