Package tigase.server

Class Packet

java.lang.Object
tigase.server.Packet
Direct Known Subclasses:
Iq, Message, Presence

public class Packet extends Object
Objects of this class carry a single XMPP packet (stanza). The XMPP stanza is carried as an XML element in DOM structure by the Packet object which contains some extra information and convenience methods to quickly access the most important stanza information.
The stanza is accessible directly through the getElement() method and then it can be handles as an XML object.
Please note! Even though the Packet object and carried the stanza Element is not unmodifiable it should be treated as such. This particular Packet can be processed concurrently at the same time in different components or plugins of the Tigase server. Modifying it may lead to unexpected and hard to diagnose behaviors. Every time you want to change or update the object you should obtaina a copy of it using one of the utility methods: copyElementOnly(), swapFromTo(...), errorResult(...), okResult(...), swapStanzaFromTo(...)
There are no public constructors for the class, instead you have to use factory methods: packetInstance(...) which return instance of one of the classes: Iq, Message or Presence. While creating a new Packet instance JIDs are parsed and processed through the stringprep. Hence some of the factory methods may throw TigaseStringprepException exception. You can avoid this by using the methods which accept preparsed JIDs. Reusing preparsed JIDs is highly recommended.
There are 3 kinds of addresses available from the Packet object: PacketFrom/To, StanzaFrom/To and From/To.
Stanza addresses are the normal XMPP addresses parsed from the XML stanza and as a convenience are available through methods as JID objects. This is not only convenient to the developer but also this is important for performance reasons as parsing JID and processing it through stringprep is quite expensive operation so it is better to do it once and reuse the parsed objects. Please note that any of them can be null. Note also. You should avoid parsing stanza JIDs from the XML element in your code as this may impact the server performance. Reuse the JIDs provided from the Packet methods.
Packet addresses are also JID objects but they may contain a different values from the Stanza addresses. These are the Tigase internal addresses used by the server and they usually contain Tigase component source and destination address. In most cases they are used between connection managers and session managers and can be ignored by other code. One advantage of setting PacketFrom address to address of your component (getComponentId()) address is that if there is a packet delivery problem it will be returned back to the sender with apropriate error message.
Simple From/To addresses contains values following the logic: If PacketFrom/To is not null then it contains PacketFrom/To values otherwise it contains StanzaFrom/To values. This is because the Tigase server tries always to deliver and process the Packet using PacketFrom/To addresses if they are null then Stanza addresses are used instead. So these are just convenience methods which allow avoiding extra IFs in the program code and also save some CPU cycles.

    • packetInstance

      public static Packet packetInstance(Element elem) throws TigaseStringprepException
      The method returns Packet instance. More specifically it returns instance of one of the following classes: Iq, Message or Presence. It takes stanza XML element as an arguments, parses some the most commonly used data and created an object. Pre-parsed information are: stanza from/to addresses, stanza id, type and presets the Packet priority.
      If there is a stringprep processing error for either the stanza source or destination address TigaseStringprepException exception is thrown.
      Parameters:
      elem - is a stanza XML Element
      Returns:
      a Packet instance, more specifically instance of one of the following classes: Iq, Message or Presence.
      Throws:
      TigaseStringprepException - if there is stanza from or to address parsing error.
    • packetInstance

      public static Packet packetInstance(Element elem, JID stanzaFrom, JID stanzaTo)
      The method returns Packet instance. More specifically it returns instance of one of the following classes: Iq, Message or Presence. It takes stanza XML element as an arguments and pre-parsed stanza from and to addresses. The method parses some other, the most commonly used data and created an object. Pre-parsed information are: stanza id, type and presets the Packet priority.
      This method does not parses stanza from and stanza to address from the given XML document, hence it does not throw TigaseStringprepException. Even though reusing parsed from and to address is highly recommended an extra care is needed to pass correct parameters as stanza JIDs or the packet may be incorrectly routed or processed.
      Parameters:
      elem - is the stanza XML Element
      stanzaFrom - is a pre-parsed JID instance from the given stanza XML element.
      stanzaTo - is a pre-parsed JID instance from the given stanza XML element.

      public static Packet packetInstance(String el_name, String from, String to, StanzaType type) throws TigaseStringprepException
      The method creates XML stanza from given parameters and returns Packet instance for this XML stanza. More specifically it returns instance of one of the following classes: Iq, Message or Presence.
      The method first builds an XML stanza from given parameters: element name, from and to addresses and stanza type, then it creates a Packet instance for the stanza. It also runs all the parsing and stringprep processing, hence it throws an exception if any error is found.
      Parameters:
      el_name - XML stanza element name as String.
      from - is the stanza from address as String
      to - is the stanza to address as String.

       import tigase.xmpp.Authorization;
       Authorization.BAD_REQUEST.getResponseMessage(packet, "Error message", true/false);
       
      This utility class and it's method acts not only as a convenience but also provides some additional checking and control.
      Parameters:
      errorType - is a String representation of the error type defined in the XMPP RFC-3920.
      errorCode - is an integer error code defined in the XMPP RFC for backward compatibility with old Jabber implementations.

       return (packetTo != null) ? packetTo : stanzaTo;
       
      Returns:
      a JID instance of the packet destination address or NULL if neither the packet destination address is set nor the stanza destination address is set.
    • getType

      public StanzaType getType()
      Method returns the stanza type parsed from the top XML element of the enclosed stanza.
      Returns:
      a StanzaType instance of the stanza type parsed from the top XML element of the enclosed stanza or NULL of the type has not been set.
    • getXMLNS

      public String getXMLNS()
      Returns the enclosed stanza top element XMLNS. This call is equal to the call:
       packet.getElement().getXMLNS();
       
      Returns:
      a String instance of the stanza top element XMLNS.
    • setXMLNS

      public void setXMLNS(String xmlns)
      Method allows to set-force XMLNS for the element. This is mostly used in cases where there is no XMLNS provided for the element (by the client for example) and then a default one is used. However, in some contexts a default XMLNS might be confusing such as when the packet is passed between s2s to c2s connection and the default XMLNS changes.
      Parameters:
      xmlns - a valid XMLNS string for the element.
    • initVars

      public void initVars(JID stanzaFrom, JID stanzaTo)
      The method allows for re-syncing stanza JIDs stored in the packet with the attributes of the stanza if they have been changed for any reason. Method mostly used internally only. Normally stanza carried by this Packet instance must not be changed, however there are rare occasions when it has to be changed. RFC requires that the server adds missing 'from' attribute to every packet sent by the user. It would be highly inefficient to create a new instance of the data just to add the missing from address. In such a case SM adds missing attribute but then stanza preparsed JIDs stored in the packet are out of sync with the enclosed stanza. This method allows for setting correct stanza JIDs for the packet fields without a need to reparse the stanza.
      Parameters:
      stanzaFrom - is a parsed source address JID from the stanza enclosed by this packet.
      stanzaTo - is a parsed destination address JID from the stanza enclosed by this packet.
    • initVars

      public void initVars() throws TigaseStringprepException
      The method allows for re-syncing/parsing stanza JIDs stored in the packet with the attributes of the stanza if they have been changed for any reason. Method mostly used internally only. Normally stanza carried by this Packet instance must not be changed, however there are rare occasions when it is needed. RFC requires that the server adds missing 'from' attribute to every packet sent by the user. It would be highly inefficient to create a new instance of the data just to add the missing from address. In such a case SM adds missing attribute but then stanza pre-parsed JIDs stored in the packet are out of sync with the enclosed stanza. This method causes stanza JIDs re-parsing and setting the packet variables.
      Throws:
      TigaseStringprepException - if the stringprep error occurs during the stanza JIDs parsing.
    • isCommand

      public boolean isCommand()
      The method checks whether the stanza enclosed by this Packet instance is an ad-hoc command. This is a generic method which in fact always returns false. It is overwritten in the Iq class where the real checking is performed. This class has been provided as a convenience method to perform the check without a need for casting the Packet instance to the Iq class.
      Returns:
      a boolean value true if the stanza is an ad-hoc command and false otherwise.
    • isElement

      public boolean isElement(String name, String xmlns)
      The method checks whether the enclosed stanza is a specific XML element. That is, it checks whether the stanza element name and XMLNS is exactly the same as given parameters. This is a convenience method which logic is equal to the code below: return packet.getElement().getName() == name && packet.getElement().getXMLNS() == xmlns;
      Parameters:
      name - is a String representing the XML element name.
      xmlns - is a String representing the XML xmlns value.
      Returns:
      true if stanza element name and XMLNS is exactly the same as given parameters, false otherwise.
    • isRouted

      public boolean isRouted()
      Method determines whether the stanza represents so called routed packet. A routed packet is a packet created by a component responsible for Communication with external components. In certain work mode it can send over the link the whole packet information with all internal states and addresses. Such a packet also encloses original stanza with all it's attributes.
      Returns:
      a boolean value of true if the packet is routed and false otherwise.
    • isServiceDisco

      public boolean isServiceDisco()
      A convenience method which checks whether the enclosed stanza is a service discovery query. This is a generic method which in fact always returns false. It is overwritten in the Iq class where the real checking is performed. This class has been provided as a convenience method to perform the check without a need for casting the Packet instance to the Iq class.
      Returns:
      a boolean value true if the stanza is a a service discovery query and false otherwise.
    • isXMLNSStaticStr

      public boolean isXMLNSStaticStr(String[] elementPath, String xmlns)
      The method checks whether the enclosed stanza contains an XML element and XML child element for a given element path and XMLNS. The elementPath is directory path like string. Please note! This method can only be used with static strings or with strings processed through String.intern() call. It uses "==" for string comparison for performance reasons.
      Parameters:
      elementPath - is a String[] value which represents XML element path to a desired child element.
      xmlns - is a String value which represents XML XMLNS.
      Returns:
      a true is element given in parameters is found in the packet stanza, otherwise false
    • notProcessedBy

      public void notProcessedBy(String id)

    • okResult

      public Packet okResult(String includeXML, int originalXML)
      Method returns a modified copy of the Packet with its stanza as stanza result used for reporting IQ stanza results. The method preserves all the attributes of the original stanza, swaps stanza source and destination addresses and can optionally add more child XML elements and can preserve existing children elements up to given depth.
      Parameters:
      includeXML - is an XML content serialized to String or just character data as String which has to be added to response stanza.
      originalXML - parameter specified whether and if so to what depth the original stanza child elements have to be preserved in the response packet.
      Returns:
      a new Packet instance with an OK (result) type stanza which is a response to this Packet instance.
    • okResult

      public Packet okResult(Element includeXML, int originalXML)
      Method returns a modified copy of the Packet with its stanza as stanza result used for reporting IQ stanza results. The method preserves all the attributes of the original stanza, swaps stanza source and destination addresses and can optionally add more child XML elements and can preserve existing children elements up to given depth.
      Parameters:
      includeXML - is an XML content which has to be added to the response stanza.
      originalXML - parameter specified whether and if so to what depth the original stanza child elements have to be preserved in the response packet.
      Returns:
      a new Packet instance with an OK (result) type stanza which is a response to this Packet instance.
    • packRouted

      public Packet packRouted()
      Returns a new Packet instance with stanza routed which means an original stanza has been enclosed inside a route XML element which contains additional information taken from Packet packet instance internal attributes.
      Returns:
      a new Packet instance with route stanza.
    • processedBy

      public void processedBy(String id)
      The method marks that the packet has been processed by a packet processor with a given ID.
      Parameters:
      id - is a String instance of the packet processer identifier.
    • swapFromTo

      public Packet swapFromTo(Element el, JID stanzaFrom, JID stanzaTo)
      The method creates a new instance of the Packet class with the packet source and destination addresses swapped and sets the given stanza element plus source and destination addresses for the new stanza. This method gives you slightly more flexibility as you can set any source and destination address for the new stanza. This method is rarely used in packet processors which don't sent a simple "ok result" response. Some data flow requires a completely new packet to be send as a response to the original call, but the response has to be delivered to the original sends. As an example are the SASL authentication and TLS handshaking.
      Parameters:
      el - is an XML element set for the new packet.
      stanzaFrom - is the stanza source address
      stanzaTo - is the stanza destination address
      Returns:
      a new Packet instance.
    • swapFromTo

      public Packet swapFromTo()
      Creates a new Packet instance with swapped packet source and destination addresses. Please note the new packet contains unchanged copy of the original stanza. Stanza source and destination addresses are no swapped.
      Returns:
      a new Packet instance.
    • swapStanzaFromTo

      public Packet swapStanzaFromTo()
      The method creates a new Packet instance with a stanza copy with swapped source and destination addresses. The packet source and destination addresses are set to null.
      Returns:
      a new Packet instance.
    • swapStanzaFromTo

      public Packet swapStanzaFromTo(StanzaType type)
      The method creates a new Packet instance with a stanza copy with swapped source and destination addresses and the given type set. The packet source and destination addresses are set to null.
      Parameters:
      type - is a new type for the stanza copy to set.
      Returns:
      a new Packet instance.
    • toStringFull

      public String toStringFull()
      The method converts the Packet instance to a String representation. The stanza XML element is presented as the string and all packet attributes are also added to the string. The method is for a debugging purposes to log the whole packet content to the debug file for further analysis. It is recommended to use toStringSecure() instead as it removes all the CData from the stanza avoiding exposing user chat message content. The secure method also preserves you from flooding your log files in case of a huge chunks of data are sent in packets (user photos in vCards or files).
      Returns:
      a String representation of the packet instance.
    • toString

      public String toString()
      Provides human-readable string presentation of the Packet object. It is not a XMPP stanza only, it also contains some Tigase specific meta-data.
      Overrides:
      toString in class Object
      Returns:
      human-readable string presentation of the Packet object.
    • toString

      public String toString(boolean secure)
      Is a convenience method which allows you to call always the same method but change (configure) whether you want to get a secure packet string representation or full representation.
      Parameters:
      secure - parameter specifies whether the secure packet representation should be returned (true value) or the full one (false).
      Returns:
      a String representation of the packet instance.
    • toStringSecure

      public String toStringSecure()
      The method returns a String representation of the packet with all CData content replaced with text: "CData size: NN". This is a preferable method to log the packets for debuging purposes.
      Returns:
      a String representation of the packet instance.
    • unpackRouted

      public Packet unpackRouted() throws TigaseStringprepException
      The method unpacks the original packet and stanza from route stanza. This is the opposite action to the packRouted() method.
      Returns:
      a new instance of the Packet class with unpacket packet and stanza from route stanza.
      Throws:
      TigaseStringprepException - if there was a problem with addresses stringprep processing.
    • wasProcessed

      Returns:
      a boolean value of true of the packet was processed by a processor with specified ID and false otherwise.
    • getElNameErrorPath

      protected String[] getElNameErrorPath()
      A convenience method to provide XML path as String[] to error element. This method should be override by all classes extending this class.
      Returns:
      XML path to error element.
