NAME

6       Net::XMPP::IQ - XMPP Info/Query Module
7

SYNOPSIS

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

DESCRIPTION

14         Net::XMPP::IQ differs from the other Net::XMPP::* modules in that
15         the XMLNS of the query is split out into a submodule under
16         IQ.  For specifics on each module please view the documentation
17         for the Net::XMPP::Namespaces module.
18
19         A Net::XMPP::IQ object is passed to the callback function for the
20         message.  Also, the first argument to the callback functions is the
21         session ID from XML::Stream.  There are some cases where you might
22         want this information, like if you created a Client that connects to
23         two servers at once, or for writing a mini server.
24
25           use Net::XMPP;
26
27           sub iq {
28             my ($sid,$IQ) = @_;
29             .
30             .
31             my $reply = $IQ->Reply();
32             my $replyQuery->GetQuery();
33             .
34           }
35
36         You now have access to all of the retrieval functions available.
37
38         To create a new iq to send to the server:
39
40           use Net::XMPP;
41
42           $IQ = new Net::XMPP::IQ();
43           $IQType = $IQ->NewChild( type );
44           $IQType->SetXXXXX("yyyyy");
45
46         Now you can call the creation functions for the IQ, and for the
47         <query/> on the new query object itself.  See below for the <iq/>
48         functions, and in each query module for those functions.
49

METHODS

51   General functions
52         Reply(%args) - Creates a return <iq/> with the to and from
53                        filled in correctly, and a query object already
54                        added in.  The %args that you pass are passed
55                        to SetIQ() and will overwrite the IQ settings
56                        that Reply sets.
57
58   Retrieval functions
59         GetTo()      - returns either a string with the JID, or a
60         GetTo("jid")   Net::XMPP::JID object for the person who is
61                        going to receive the <iq/>.  To get the JID
62                        object set the string to "jid", otherwise leave
63                        blank for the text string.
64
65                        $to    = $IQ->GetTo();
66                        $toJID = $IQ->GetTo("jid");
67
68         GetFrom()      -  returns either a string with the JID, or a
69         GetFrom("jid")    Net::XMPP::JID object for the person who
70                           sent the <iq/>.  To get the JID object set
71                           the string to "jid", otherwise leave blank for the
72                           text string.
73
74                           $from    = $IQ->GetFrom();
75                           $fromJID = $IQ->GetFrom("jid");
76
77         GetType() - returns a string with the type <iq/> this is.
78
79                     $type = $IQ->GetType();
80
81         GetID() - returns an integer with the id of the <iq/>.
82
83                   $id = $IQ->GetID();
84
85         GetError() - returns a string with the text description of the error.
86
87                      $error = $IQ->GetError();
88
89         GetErrorCode() - returns a string with the code of error.
90
91                          $errorCode = $IQ->GetErrorCode();
92
93         GetQuery() - returns a Net::XMPP::Stanza object that contains the data
94                      in the query of the <iq/>.  Basically, it returns the
95                      first child in the <iq/>.
96
97                      $query = $IQ->GetQuery();
98
99         GetQueryXMLNS() - returns a string with the namespace of the query
100                           for this <iq/>, if one exists.
101
102                           $xmlns = $IQ->GetQueryXMLNS();
103
104   Creation functions
105         SetIQ(to=>string|JID,    - set multiple fields in the <iq/> at one
106               from=>string|JID,    time.  This is a cumulative and over
107               id=>string,          writing action.  If you set the "to"
108               type=>string,        attribute twice, the second setting is
109               errorcode=>string,   what is used.  If you set the status, and
110               error=>string)       then set the priority then both will be in
111                                    the <iq/> tag.  For valid settings read the
112                                    specific Set functions below.
113
114                                    $IQ->SetIQ(type=>"get",
115                                               to=>"bob\@jabber.org");
116
117                                    $IQ->SetIQ(to=>"bob\@jabber.org",
118                                               errorcode=>403,
119                                               error=>"Permission Denied");
120
121         SetTo(string) - sets the to attribute.  You can either pass a string
122         SetTo(JID)      or a JID object.  They must be a valid Jabber
123                         Identifiers or the server will return an error message.
124                         (ie.  bob@jabber.org, etc...)
125
126                         $IQ->SetTo("bob\@jabber.org");
127
128         SetFrom(string) - sets the from attribute.  You can either pass a
129         SetFrom(JID)      string or a JID object.  They must be a valid JIDs
130                           or the server will return an error message.
131                           (ie.  bob@jabber.org, etc...)
132
133                           $IQ->SetFrom("me\@jabber.org");
134
135         SetType(string) - sets the type attribute.  Valid settings are:
136
137                           get      request information
138                           set      set information
139                           result   results of a get
140                           error    there was an error
141
142                           $IQ->SetType("set");
143
144         SetErrorCode(string) - sets the error code of the <iq/>.
145
146                                $IQ->SetErrorCode(403);
147
148         SetError(string) - sets the error string of the <iq/>.
149
150                            $IQ->SetError("Permission Denied");
151
152         NewChild(string) - creates a new Net::XMPP::Stanza object with the
153                            namespace in the string.  In order for this
154                            function to work with a custom namespace, you
155                            must define and register that namespace with the
156                            IQ module.  For more information please read the
157                            documentation for Net::XMPP::Stanza.
158
159                            $queryObj = $IQ->NewChild("jabber:iq:auth");
160                            $queryObj = $IQ->NewChild("jabber:iq:roster");
161
162         Reply(hash) - creates a new IQ object and populates the to/from
163                       fields.  If you specify a hash the same as with SetIQ
164                       then those values will override the Reply values.
165
166                       $iqReply = $IQ->Reply();
167                       $iqReply = $IQ->Reply(type=>"result");
168
