.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
This extension handles setting and retrieval of the VCard and the
VCard based avatars.
.PP
For example see the test suite of AnyEvent::XMPP.
.SH "METHODS"
.IX Header "METHODS"
.IP "\fBnew (%args)\fR" 4
.IX Item "new (%args)"
Creates a new vcard extension.
It can take a \f(CW\*(C`cache\*(C'\fR argument, which should be a tied hash
which should be able to save the retrieved vcards.
If no \f(CW\*(C`cache\*(C'\fR is set a internal hash will be used and the
vcards will be retrieved everytime the program is restarted.
The keys will be the stringprepped bare JIDs of the people we
got a vcard from and the value will be a non-cyclic hash/array datastructure
representing the vcard.
.Sp
About this datastructure see below at \fB\s-1VCARD STRUCTURE\s0\fR.
.Sp
If you want to support avatars correctly make sure you hook up the connection
via the \f(CW\*(C`hook_on\*(C'\fR method.
.IP "\fBhook_on ($con, \f(CB$dont_retrieve_vcard\fB)\fR" 4
.IX Item "hook_on ($con, $dont_retrieve_vcard)"
\&\f(CW$con\fR must be an object of the class AnyEvent::XMPP::Connection (or derived).
Once the vCard extension has been hooked up on a connection it will add
the avatar information to all outgoing presence stanzas.
.Sp
\&\s-1IMPORTANT:\s0 You need to hook on the connection \fB\s-1BEFORE\s0\fR it was connected. The
initial presence stanza needs to contain the information that we support
avatars. The vcard will automatically retrieved if the session wasn't already
started. Otherwise you will have to retrieve the vcard manually if you hook it
up after the \f(CW\*(C`session_ready\*(C'\fR event was received. You can prevent the automatic
retrieval by giving a true value in \f(CW$dont_retrieve_vcard\fR.  However, just
make sure to hook up on any connection before it is connected if you want to
offer avatar support on it.
.Sp
Best is probably to do it like this:
.Sp
.Vb 4
\&   my $vcard = AnyEvent::XMPP::Ext::VCard\->new;
\&   $con\->reg_cb (
\&      stream_ready => sub { $vcard\->hook_on ($con) }
\&   );
.Ve
.IP "\fBmy_vcard ($con)\fR" 4
.IX Item "my_vcard ($con)"
This method returns the vcard for the account connected by \f(CW$con\fR.
This only works if vcard was (successfully) retrieved. If the connection was
hoooked up the vcard was automatically retrieved.
.Sp
Alternatively \f(CW$con\fR can also be a string reprensenting the \s-1JID\s0 of an
account.
.IP "\fBcache ([$newcache])\fR" 4
.IX Item "cache ([$newcache])"
See also \f(CW\*(C`new\*(C'\fR about the meaning of cache hashes.
If no argument is given the current cache is returned.
.IP "\fBstore ($con, \f(CB$vcard\fB, \f(CB$cb\fB)\fR" 4
.IX Item "store ($con, $vcard, $cb)"
This method will store your \f(CW$vcard\fR on the connected server.
\&\f(CW$cb\fR is called when either an error occured or the storage was successful.
If an error occured the first argument is not undefined and contains an
AnyEvent::XMPP::Error::IQ object.
.Sp
\&\f(CW$con\fR should be a AnyEvent::XMPP::Connection or an object from some derived class.
.Sp
\&\f(CW$vcard\fR has a datastructure as described below in \fB\s-1VCARD STRUCTURE\s0\fR.
.IP "\fBretrieve ($con, \f(CB$jid\fB, \f(CB$cb\fB)\fR" 4
.IX Item "retrieve ($con, $jid, $cb)"
This method will retrieve the vCard for \f(CW$jid\fR via the connection \f(CW$con\fR.
If \f(CW$jid\fR is undefined the vCard of yourself is retrieved.
The callback \f(CW$cb\fR is called when an error occured or the vcard was retrieved.
The first argument of the callback will be the \s-1JID\s0 to which the vCard belongs,
the second argument is the vCard itself (as described in \fB\s-1VCARD STRUCTURE\s0\fR below)
and the thrid argument is the error, if an error occured (undef otherwise).
.SH "VCARD STRUCTURE"
.IX Header "VCARD STRUCTURE"
As there are currently no nice \s-1DOM\s0 implementations in Perl and I strongly
dislike the \s-1DOM API\s0 in general this module has a simple Perl datastructure
without cycles to represent the vCard.
.PP
First an example: A fetched vCard hash may look like this:
.PP
.Vb 10
\&  {
\&    \*(AqURL\*(Aq => [\*(Aqhttp://www.ta\-sa.org/\*(Aq],
\&    \*(AqORG\*(Aq => [{
\&               \*(AqORGNAME\*(Aq => \*(Aqnethype GmbH\*(Aq
\&             }],
\&    \*(AqN\*(Aq => [{
\&             \*(AqFAMILY\*(Aq => \*(AqRedeker\*(Aq

\&         HOME => undef,

\&       },

\&          WORK => undef,
\&          COUNTRY => \*(AqGermany\*(Aq,
\&          LOCALITY => \*(AqKarlsruhe\*(Aq
\&       }
\&    ],
\&    \*(AqNICKNAME\*(Aq => [\*(Aqelmex\*(Aq],
\&    \*(AqROLE\*(Aq => [\*(AqProgrammer\*(Aq]
\&  }
.Ve
.PP
The keys represent the toplevel element of a vCard, the values are always array
references containig one or more values for the key. If the value is a
hash reference again it's value will not be an array reference but either undef
or plain values.
.PP
The values of the toplevel keys are all array references because fields
like \f(CW\*(C`ADR\*(C'\fR may occur multiple times.
.PP
Consult \s-1XEP\-0054\s0 for an explanation what these fields mean or contain.
.PP
There are special fields in this structure for handling avatars:
\&\f(CW\*(C`_avatar\*(C'\fR contains the binary data for the avatar image.
\&\f(CW\*(C`_avatar_hash\*(C'\fR contains the sha1 hexencoded hash of the binary image data.
\&\f(CW\*(C`_avatar_type\*(C'\fR contains the mime type of the avatar.
.PP
If you want to store the vcard you only have to set \f(CW\*(C`_avatar\*(C'\fR and \f(CW\*(C`_avatar_type\*(C'\fR
if you want to store an avatar.
.SH "EVENTS"
.IX Header "EVENTS"
The vcard extension will emit these events:
.SH "TODO"
.IX Header "TODO"
Implement caching, the cache stuff is just a storage hash at the moment.
Or maybe drop it completly and let the application handle caching.
.ie n .IP "retrieve_vcard_error => $iq_error" 4
.el .IP "retrieve_vcard_error => \f(CW$iq_error\fR" 4
.IX Item "retrieve_vcard_error => $iq_error"
When a vCard retrieval was not successful, this event is emitted.
This is neccessary as some retrievals may happen automatically.
.ie n .IP "vcard => $jid, $vcard" 4
.el .IP "vcard => \f(CW$jid\fR, \f(CW$vcard\fR" 4
.IX Item "vcard => $jid, $vcard"
Whenever a vCard is retrieved, either automatically or manually,
this event is emitted with the retrieved vCard.
