NAME

Net::Jabber::Log - Jabber Log Module

SYNOPSIS

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

DESCRIPTION

   To initialize the Log with a Jabber <log/> you must pass it the 
   XML::Parser Tree array.  For example:
 
     my $log = new Net::Jabber::Log(@tree);
 
   There has been a change from the old way of handling the callbacks.
   You no longer have to do the above, a Net::Jabber::Log object is passed
   to the callback function for the log:
 
     use Net::Jabber;
 
     sub log {
       my ($Log) = @_;
       .
       .
       .
     }
 
   You now have access to all of the retrieval functions available.
 
   To create a new log to send to the server:
 
     use Net::Jabber;
 
     $Log = new Net::Jabber::Log();
 
   Now you can call the creation functions below to populate the tag before
   sending it.
 
   For more information about the array format being passed to the CallBack
   please read the Net::Jabber::Client documentation.
 
 

Retrieval functions

     $from       = $Log->GetFrom();
     $fromJID    = $Log->GetFrom("jid");
     $type       = $Log->GetType();
     $data       = $Log->GetData();
 
     $str        = $Log->GetXML();
     @log        = $Log->GetTree();
 
 

Creation functions

     $Log->SetLog(type=>"error",
                  from=>"users.jabber.org",
                  data=>"The moon is full... I can't run anymore.");
     $Log->SetFrom("foo.jabber.org");
     $Log->SetType("warn");
     $Log->SetData("I can't find a config file.  Using defaults.");
 
 

Test functions

     $test = $Log->DefinedFrom();
     $test = $Log->DefinedType();
 
 

METHODS

Retrieval functions

   GetFrom()      -  returns either a string with the Jabber Identifier,
   GetFrom("jid")    or a Net::Jabber::JID object for the person who
                     sent the <log/>.  To get the JID object set 
                     the string to "jid", otherwise leave blank for the 
                     text string.
 
   GetType() - returns a string with the type <log/> this is.
 
   GetData() - returns a string with the cdata of the <log/>.
 
   GetXML() - returns the XML string that represents the <log/>.
              This is used by the Send() function in Client.pm to send
              this object as a Jabber Log.
 
   GetTree() - returns an array that contains the <log/> tag
               in XML::Parser Tree format.
 
 

Creation functions

   SetLog(from=>string|JID, - set multiple fields in the <log/>
          type=>string,       at one time.  This is a cumulative
          data=>string)       and over writing action.  If you set
                              the "from" attribute twice, the second
                              setting is what is used.  If you set
                              the type, and then set the data
                              then both will be in the <log/>
                              tag.  For valid settings read the
                              specific Set functions below.
 
   SetFrom(string) - sets the from attribute.  You can either pass a string
   SetFrom(JID)      or a JID object.  They must be valid Jabber 
                     Identifiers or the server will return an error log.
                     (ie.  jabber:bob@jabber.org/Silent Bob, etc...)
 
   SetType(string) - sets the type attribute.  Valid settings are:
 
                     notice     general logging
                     warn       warning
                     alert      critical error (can still run but not 
                                correctly)
                     error      fatal error (cannot run anymore)
 
   SetData(string) - sets the cdata of the <log/>.
 
 

Test functions

   DefinedFrom() - returns 1 if the from attribute is defined in the 
                   <log/>, 0 otherwise.
 
   DefinedType() - returns 1 if the type attribute is defined in the 
                   <log/>, 0 otherwise.
