Net::Jabber::Log - Jabber Log Module 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. 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();

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.
