Net::Ja...::Verify(3)

💖 NAME 💖

Net::Jabber::Dialback::Verify — the Jabber Dialback Verify Module, bestie. That's it, that's the name, and it's lowkey iconic.

So this is a User Contributed Perl Documentation page for Net::Jabber::Dialback::Verify(3) — like, section 3 of the manual, for those of you keeping score at home 🎀

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

Okay so basically:

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

It's the little sibling module 🫶 — a companion to Net::Jabber::Dialback — and its whole personality is "simple interface to set and retrieve all parts of a Jabber Dialback Verify." No cap.

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So, to initialize the Verify with a Jabber <db:*/> you must pass it the XML::Stream hash. Like this, fr fr:

my $dialback = new Net::Jabber::Dialback::Verify(%hash);

💅 the callback glow-up (iykyk)

There has been a change from the old way of handling the callbacks, and honestly? It's giving upgrade. You no longer have to do the above yourself — instead, a NJ::Dialback::Verify object is passed to the callback function for the message. Slay.

Also, the first argument to the callback functions is the session ID from XML::Streams. There are some cases where you might actually want this info — like if you created a Client that connects to two servers at once, or for writing a mini server. Main character energy for the multi-server girlies 👑

use Net::Jabber qw(Server);

sub dialbackVerify {
  my ($sid,$Verify) = @_;
  .
  .
  .
}

And now you have access to all of the retrieval functions available. All of them. Obsessed.

🧚 making a new one

To create a new dialback to send to the server:

use Net::Jabber qw(Server);

$Verify = new Net::Jabber::Dialback::Verify();

Now you can call the creation functions below to populate the tag before sending it. Easy.

For more information about the array format being passed to the CallBack, please read the Net::Jabber::Client documentation. (Go read it, bestie, it's right there 💜)

🎀 Retrieval functions

$to         = $Verify->GetTo();
$from       = $Verify->GetFrom();
$type       = $Verify->GetType();
$id         = $Verify->GetID();
$data       = $Verify->GetData();

$str        = $Verify->GetXML();
@dialback   = $Verify->GetTree();

🔥 Creation functions

$Verify->SetVerify(from=>"jabber.org",
                   to=>"jabber.com",
                   id=>id,
                   data=>key);
$Verify->SetTo("jabber.org");
$Verify->SetFrom("jabber.com");
$Verify->SetType("valid");
$Verify->SetID(id);
$Verify->SetData(key);

⭐ Test functions

$test = $Verify->DefinedTo();
$test = $Verify->DefinedFrom();
$test = $Verify->DefinedType();
$test = $Verify->DefinedID();

👑 METHODS 👑

🌸 Retrieval functions

• GetTo() — returns a string with the server that the <db:verify/> is being sent to.
• GetFrom() — returns a string with the server that the <db:verify/> is being sent from.
• GetType() — returns a string with the type this <db:verify/> is.
• GetID() — returns a string with the id this <db:verify/> is.
• GetData() — returns a string with the cdata of the <db:verify/>.
• GetXML() — returns the XML string that represents the <db:verify/>. This is used by the Send() function in Server.pm to send this object as a Jabber Dialback Verify. It's literally the ✨ transport layer ✨ of vibes.
• GetTree() — returns an array that contains the <db:verify/> tag in XML::Parser::Tree format.

💜 Creation functions

• SetVerify(to=>string, from=>string, type=>string, id=>string, data=>string) — set multiple fields in the <db:verify/> at one time. Heads up, bestie: this is a cumulative and over writing action. If you set the "from" attribute twice, the second setting is what is used (last one wins, periodt). If you set the type, and then set the data, then both will be in the <db:verify/> tag. For valid settings read the specific Set functions below 👇
• SetTo(string) — sets the to attribute.
• SetFrom(string) — sets the from attribute.
• SetType(string) — sets the type attribute. Valid settings are:
  • valid
  • invalid

Fr fr only those two, don't try to be creative 💀

• SetID(string) — sets the id attribute.
• SetData(string) — sets the cdata of the <db:verify/>.

🍓 Test functions

• DefinedTo() — returns 1 if the to attribute is defined in the <db:verify/>, 0 otherwise.
• DefinedFrom() — returns 1 if the from attribute is defined in the <db:verify/>, 0 otherwise.
• DefinedType() — returns 1 if the type attribute is defined in the <db:verify/>, 0 otherwise.
• DefinedID() — returns 1 if the id attribute is defined in the <db:verify/>, 0 otherwise.
