2. Quickstart

2.1. Simplest client

Here is example of simplest client sending one message.

SimplestClient.kt.

val halcyon = Halcyon()
halcyon.configuration.let {
    it.setJID("[email protected]".toBareJID())
    it.setPassword("secret")
}
halcyon.connectAndWait()

halcyon.request.message {
    to = "[email protected]".toJID()
    "body"{
        +"Art thou not Romeo, and a Montague?"
    }
}.send()

halcyon.disconnect()

2.2. Handling changes of connection status

We can listen for changing status of connection:

halcyon.eventBus.register<HalcyonStateChangeEvent>(HalcyonStateChangeEvent.TYPE) { stateChangeEvent ->
    println("Halcyon state: ${stateChangeEvent.oldState}->${stateChangeEvent.newState}")
}

Available states:

• Connecting - this state means, that method connect() was called, and connection to server is in progress.

• Connected - connection is fully established.

• Disconnecting - connection is closing because of error or manual disconnecting.

• Disconnected - Halcyon is disconnected from XMPP server, but it is still active. It may start reconnecting to server automatically.

• Stopped - Halcyon is turned off (not active).
