NAME

Net::XMPP2::IM::Delayed - A delayed "XML" stanza

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

This module handles the delayed fields of stanzas and is a superclass of Net::XMPP2::IM::Message and Net::XMPP2::IM::Presence.

METHODS

new

The constructor takes no arguments and makes just a new object of this class.

fetch_delay_from_node ($node)

$node must be a Net::XMPP2::Node. This method will try to fetch the delay information from the $node. It will look in the lists of child nodes for the delay elements and set it's values from there.

delay_from

This method returns either the original source of a maybe delayed stanza. It's the JID of the original entity that sent the stanza.

This method returns undef if this stanza was not delayed.

And this method returns undef if this stanza had no details about who sent the message in the first place.

To find out whether this stanza was delayed use the delay_stamp method.

delay_stamp

This method returns the timestamp in XMPP format which can be fed to the from_xmpp_datetime function documented in Net::XMPP2::Util.

(Please note that this might be a newstyle XEP-0087 timestamp or old style legacy timestamp)

If the stanza was not delayed this method returns undef.

delay_reason

This method might return a human readable string containing the reason why the stanza was delayed.

Will be undef if stanza contained no delay.

is_delayed

If this method returns a true value then this stanza was delayed. Otherwise it returns undef.
