1 NAME
2 Net::Knuddels - www.knuddels.de protocol implementation.
3
4 SYNOPSIS
5 use Net::Knuddels;
6
7 DESCRIPTION
8 RTSL.
9
10 CLASS Net::Knuddels::Protocol
11 You must call the "destroy" method of this class when you no longer use
12 it, as circular references will keep the object alive otherwise.
13
14 new Create a new "Net::Knuddels::Protocol" object.
15
16 $protocol->feed_data ($octets)
17 Feed raw protocol data into the decoder.
18
19 $msg = $protocol->encode_msg (@strings)
20 Join the strings with "\0", encode the result into a protocol packet
21 and return it.
22
23 $protocol->register ($type => $callback)
24 Register a callback for events of type $type, which is either the
25 name of a low-level event sent by the server (such as "k" for dialog
26 box) or the name of a generated event, such as "login".
27
28 $protocol->destroy
29 *MUST* be called to destroy the object, otherwise it will leak (no
30 automatic cleanup).
31
32 CLASS Net::Knuddels::Client
33 Implement a Knuddels client connection.
34
35 new Net::Knuddels::Client [IO::Socket::new arguments]
36 Create a new client connection.
37
38 Optional extra arguments:
39
40 command_wait => $cb($client,$wait)
41 This callback will be called with the client object
42 and a time to wait. It must call the C<command_cb> method
43 after the time specified, either by a blocking wait
44 or via some event loop callback. The default implementation
45 just does a blockign wait.
46
47 $client->fh
48 Return the fh used for communications. You are responsible for
49 calling "$client->ready" whenever the fh becomes ready for reading.
50
51 $client->ready
52 To be called then the filehandle is ready for reading. Returns false
53 if the server closed the connection, true otherwise.
54
55 $client->command_cb
56 Should be called by the "command_wait" callback when the timer has
57 expired, to send a delayed command to the server.
58
59 $client->command ($type => @args)
60 Send a message of type $type and the given arguments to the server,
61 ensures a proper rate-limit.
62
63 $client->login ($url, $unknown)
64 Send a 't' message. The default for $url is
65 "http://www.knuddels.de/applet.html?v=87&c=-3" and $unknown is 3.
66
67 $client->enter_room ($room, $nick, $password)
68 Enters a room $room with $nick and $password. (for joining multiple
69 rooms call this multiple times)
70
71 NOTE: i won't allow joins to multiple rooms with different
72 nick/password's, the java client reacted very confused.. don't know
73 whether the server supports this.
74
75 $client->send_whois ($nick)
76 Sends a whois-request for $nick.
77
78 $client->send_room_msg ($nick, $room, $message)
79 Sends a private $message to $nick over $room.
80
81 $client->send_priv_msg ($nick, $room, $message)
82 Sends a private $message to $nick over $room.
83
84 $client->send_join_room ($oldroom, $room)
85 Sends the server a join command for $room. This will result in a
86 room change from $oldroom to $room.
87
88 $client->send_exit_room ($room)
89 Exits $room completly. (can be seen as counter method for
90 "enter_room ()")
91
92 $client->register ($type => $cb)
93 See Net::Knuddels::Protocol::register. The following extra events
94 will be generated by this class:
95
96 login
97 set_nick can only be called _after_ a login event has occured.
98
99 msg_room => $room, $user, $msg
100 produced when a public message is uttered :)
101
102 msg_priv => $room, $src, $dst, $msg
103 personal message from $src to $dst. better use msg_priv_nondup,
104 msg_priv_james or msg_priv_echo
105
106 msg_priv_echo => $room, $src, $dst, $msg
107 like msg_priv, but only for echoed messages
108
109 msg_priv_james => $room, $src, $dst, $msg
110 like msg_priv, but only for messages from James
111
112 msg_priv_nondup => $room, $src, $dst, $msg
113 like msg_priv, but avoids duplicate messages, echos and james.
114
115 user_list => $room, $list
116 the userlist of a channel named $room, a elmement of the list (a user)
117 looks like:
