NAME

6       Net::Jabber::Log - Jabber Log Module
7

SYNOPSIS

9         Net::Jabber::Log is a companion to the Net::Jabber module.
10         It provides the user a simple interface to set and retrieve all
11         parts of a Jabber Log.
12

DESCRIPTION

14         To initialize the Log with a Jabber <log/> you must pass it the
15         XML::Parser Tree array.  For example:
16
17           my $log = new Net::Jabber::Log(@tree);
18
19         There has been a change from the old way of handling the callbacks.
20         You no longer have to do the above, a Net::Jabber::Log object is passed
21         to the callback function for the log:
22
23           use Net::Jabber;
24
25           sub log {
26             my ($Log) = @_;
27             .
28             .
29             .
30           }
31
32         You now have access to all of the retrieval functions available.
33
34         To create a new log to send to the server:
35
36           use Net::Jabber;
37
38           $Log = new Net::Jabber::Log();
39
40         Now you can call the creation functions below to populate the tag before
41         sending it.
42
43         For more information about the array format being passed to the CallBack
44         please read the Net::Jabber::Client documentation.
45
46   Retrieval functions
47           $from       = $Log->GetFrom();
48           $fromJID    = $Log->GetFrom("jid");
49           $type       = $Log->GetType();
50           $data       = $Log->GetData();
51
52           $str        = $Log->GetXML();
53           @log        = $Log->GetTree();
54
55   Creation functions
56           $Log->SetLog(type=>"error",
57                        from=>"users.jabber.org",
58                        data=>"The moon is full... I can't run anymore.");
59           $Log->SetFrom("foo.jabber.org");
60           $Log->SetType("warn");
61           $Log->SetData("I can't find a config file.  Using defaults.");
62
63   Test functions
64           $test = $Log->DefinedFrom();
65           $test = $Log->DefinedType();
66

METHODS

68   Retrieval functions
69         GetFrom()      -  returns either a string with the Jabber Identifier,
70         GetFrom("jid")    or a Net::Jabber::JID object for the person who
71                           sent the <log/>.  To get the JID object set
72                           the string to "jid", otherwise leave blank for the
73                           text string.
74
75         GetType() - returns a string with the type <log/> this is.
76
77         GetData() - returns a string with the cdata of the <log/>.
78
79         GetXML() - returns the XML string that represents the <log/>.
80                    This is used by the Send() function in Client.pm to send
81                    this object as a Jabber Log.
82
83         GetTree() - returns an array that contains the <log/> tag
84                     in XML::Parser Tree format.
85
86   Creation functions
87         SetLog(from=>string|JID, - set multiple fields in the <log/>
88                type=>string,       at one time.  This is a cumulative
89                data=>string)       and over writing action.  If you set
90                                    the "from" attribute twice, the second
91                                    setting is what is used.  If you set
92                                    the type, and then set the data
93                                    then both will be in the <log/>
94                                    tag.  For valid settings read the
95                                    specific Set functions below.
96
97         SetFrom(string) - sets the from attribute.  You can either pass a string
98         SetFrom(JID)      or a JID object.  They must be valid Jabber
99                           Identifiers or the server will return an error log.
100                           (ie.  jabber:bob@jabber.org/Silent Bob, etc...)
101
102         SetType(string) - sets the type attribute.  Valid settings are:
103
104                           notice     general logging
105                           warn       warning
106                           alert      critical error (can still run but not
107                                      correctly)
108                           error      fatal error (cannot run anymore)
109
110         SetData(string) - sets the cdata of the <log/>.
111
112   Test functions
113         DefinedFrom() - returns 1 if the from attribute is defined in the
114                         <log/>, 0 otherwise.
115
116         DefinedType() - returns 1 if the type attribute is defined in the
117                         <log/>, 0 otherwise.
