💖 pm::Loudmouth(3pm) 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to pm::Loudmouth(3pm) — straight outta the User Contributed Perl Documentation section. it's perl docs, it's giving "I read the whole thing so you don't have to", and honestly? iconic. let's go 🦋

✨ NAME ✨

Net::Jabber::Loudmouth — it's a Perl interface for the loudmouth jabber library. that's the whole vibe, no cap 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

here's the lil taste test, copy-paste it and you're basically a wizard:

use Net::Jabber::Loudmouth;

my $connection = Net::Jabber::Loudmouth::Connection->new("server");
$connection->open_and_block();
$connection->authenticate_and_block("username", "password", "resource");

my $m = Net::Jabber::Loudmouth::Message->new("recipient", 'message');
$m->get_node->add_child("body", "message");

$connection->send($m);

like… she's doing it all in seven lines. main character energy fr fr 👑

---

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

so Net::Jabber::Loudmouth is a perl interface for libloudmouth, the Lightweight C Jabber library. you get to do all the same stuff you'd do with Net::Jabber, except the interface is nicer and it's much faster, because most of the actual code is written in C. so like, the C is doing the heavy lifting and you're just here looking cute and calling methods 🎀✨

---

🔥 FUNCTIONS 🔥

Net::Jabber::Loudmouth literally only contains two functions. that's it. that's the whole bag. everything else you might be looking for lives over in Net::Jabber::Loudmouth::* — go check those, iykyk 💫

🫶 default_port

Net::Jabber::Loudmouth->default_port()

returns the default port that gets used for every connection. that's it, no arguments, no drama, just a port bestie 💅

🧚 default_port_ssl

Net::Jabber::Loudmouth->default_port_ssl()

returns the default ssl port. and like, if you wanna tell a connection "hey babe use the ssl port", you do:

$connection->set_port(Net::Jabber::Loudmouth->default_port_ssl())

and boom, ssl port, slay. see Net::Jabber::Loudmouth::Connection for the deets ✨
