NAME

Top

Agent::TCLI::Package::XMPP - A package of commands to access the XMPP transport

SYNOPSIS

Top

	# Within a TCLI Agent script

	use Agent::TCLI::Transport::XMPP;
	use Agent::TCLI::Package::XMPP;

	my @packages = (
		Agent::TCLI::Package::XMPP->new(),
	);

	Agent::TCLI::Transport::XMPP->new(
	    'control_options'	=> {
		    'packages' 		=> \@packages,
	     },
	);




DESCRIPTION

Top

This package provides commands for the control of the XMPP Transport from within a TLCI Agent. One would typically want to have this command package loaded when using the XMPP Transport, but it is not required.

This is still poorly documented. I apologize for the inconvenience.

INTERFACE

Top

ATTRIBUTES

The following attributes are accessible through standard <attribute> methods unless otherwise noted.

These attrbiutes are generally internal and are probably only useful to someone trying to enhance the functionality of this Package module.

METHODS

Most of these methods are for internal use within the TCLI system and may be of interest only to developers trying to enhance TCLI.

new ( hash of attributes )

Usually the only attributes that are useful on creation are the verbose and do_verbose attrbiutes that are inherited from Agent::TCLI::Base.

peer

This POE event handler executes the peer commands.

change

This POE event handler executes the change command.

show

This POE event handler executes the show commands.

shutdown

This POE event handler executes the shutdown command.

start

This POE event handler executes the start command. It is not exactly clear when this would be useful currently, but we have a shutdown command and balance must be maintained. Hopefully other transports will be available in the future and this command might be more useful.

INHERITED METHODS

This module is an Object::InsideOut object that inherits from Agent::TCLI::Package::Base. It inherits methods from both. Please refer to their documentation for more details.

BUGS

Test scripts not thorough enough.

Probably many others.

Agent::TCLI::Parameter:
  name: peers
  help: list the peers

    This debugging parameter can be used to list the peers currently
    loaded in a transport.
  type: Switch

Agent::TCLI::Parameter:
  name: controls
  help: list the controls
  manual: >
    This debugging parameter can be used to list the controls currently
    loaded in a transport.
  type: Switch

Agent::TCLI::Parameter:
  name: xmpp_verbose
  aliases: verbose|v
  constraints:
    - UINT
  help: an integer for verbosity
  manual: >
    This debugging parameter can be used to adjust the verbose setting
    for the XMPP transport.
  type: Counter
---
Agent::TCLI::Parameter:
  name: group_mode
  constraints:
    - ASCII
  help: sets how the control processes group chats
  manual: |
    The group_mode tells the control how to determine if a group chat
    message is directed at itself. The possible settings are:
        all - treat everything from others as a command
        log - ignore everything from others, only use chatroom for logging
        named - only accept commands prefixed by the name followed by a colon
        prefixed - only accept commands prefixed by the group_prefix,
          by default a colon
  type: Param
---
Agent::TCLI::Parameter:
  name: group_prefix
  constraints:
    - ASCII
  help: sets the prefix used in group chats
  manual: >
    The group_prefix sets the prefix used by the group_mode prefixed option.
    By default, it is a colon.
  type: Param
---
Agent::TCLI::Parameter:
  name: id
  constraints:
    - ASCII
  help: the user id
  manual: >
    ID of user in a form acceptable to the protocol.
    XMPP/Jabber IDs MUST not include resource information.
  type: Param
---
Agent::TCLI::Parameter:
  name: auth
  constraints:
    - ASCII
  help: Authorization level of user.
  manual: |
    Authorization level of user. MUST be one of these values:
      reader - has read access
      writer - has write access
      master - has root access
      logger - receives copies of all messages, can't do anything

    Note that commands must choose from the above to determine if a user can
    do anything. Not very robust, but hey, it's not even 1.0 yet.

    Every user should be defined with an B<auth>, but currently this is not
    being checked anywhere.
  type: Param
---
Agent::TCLI::Parameter:
  name: protocol
  constraints:
    - ASCII
  help: Protocol that user is allowed access on.
  manual: >
    Protocol that user is allowed access on. Currently only xmpp and
    xmpp-groupchat are supported by Transport::XMPP. If the protocol
    is xmpp-groupchat, the Transport will automatically join the
    conference room when the user is added.
  type: Param
---
Agent::TCLI::Parameter:
  name: password
  constraints:
    - ASCII
  help: A password for the user.
  manual: >
    A password for the user. For a private XMPP chatroom,
    this is used to log on. It is not used anywhere else currently.
  type: Param
