NAME¶
POE::Component::Jabber::XMPP - connect using the XMPP Jabber protocol
SYNOPSIS¶
This is a Protocol implementation for the specifics in the XMPP protocol during
connection initialization.
DESCRIPTION¶
PCJ::XMPP provides all the mechanisms to negotiate TLS, SASL, resource binding,
and session negotiation that PCJ needs to successfully establish an XMPP
connection. In essence, it implements XMPP Core and a smidgeon of XMPP IM.
METHODS¶
Please see PCJ::Protocol for what methods this class supports.
EVENTS¶
Listed are the exported events that make their way into the PCJ session:
- set_auth
- This handles the initial SASL authentication portion of the
XMPP connection.
- init_input_handler
- This is our entry point. This is what PCJ uses to deliver
events to us.
- build_tls_wheel
- If TLS is required by the server, this is where that
negotiation process happens.
- challenge_response
- This handles the subsequent SASL authentication steps.
- binding
- This handles the resource binding
- session_establish
- This handles session binding.
NOTES AND BUGS¶
Currently, only DIGEST-MD5 and PLAIN SASL mechanisms are supported. Server
implementations are free to include more strigent mechanisms, but these are
the bare minimum required. (And PLAIN isn't /really/ allowed by the spec, but
it is included because it was a requested feature)
The underlying backend has changed this release to now use a new Node
implementation based on XML::LibXML::Element. Please see
POE::Filter::XML::Node documentation for the relevant API changes.
