slidge.contact

Everything related to 1 on 1 chats, and other legacy users’ details.

Package Contents

class slidge.contact.LegacyContact(session: slidge.util.types.AnySession, stored: slidge.db.models.Contact)

Bases: slidge.core.mixins.AvatarMixin, slidge.core.mixins.disco.ContactAccountDiscoMixin, slidge.core.mixins.FullCarbonMixin, slidge.core.mixins.recipient.RecipientMixin, slidge.util.SubclassableOnce

This class centralizes actions in relation to a specific legacy contact.

You shouldn’t create instances of contacts manually, but rather rely on LegacyRoster.by_legacy_id() to ensure that contact instances are singletons. The LegacyRoster instance of a session is accessible through the BaseSession.contacts attribute.

Typically, your plugin should have methods hook to the legacy events and call appropriate methods here to transmit the “legacy action” to the xmpp user. This should look like this:

Use carbon=True as a keyword arg for methods to represent an action FROM the user TO the contact, typically when the user uses an official client to do an action such as sending a message or marking as message as read. This will use XEP-0363 to impersonate the XMPP user in order.

RESOURCE: str = 'slidge'

A full JID, including a resource part is required for chat states (and maybe other stuff) to work properly. This is the name of the resource the contacts will use.

property client_type: slidge.util.types.ClientType

The client type of this contact, cf https://xmpp.org/registrar/disco-categories.html#client

Default is “pc”.

pop_unread_xmpp_ids_up_to(horizon_xmpp_id: str) list[str]

Return XMPP msg ids sent by this contact up to a given XMPP msg id.

Legacy modules have no reason to use this, but it is used by slidge core for legacy networks that need to mark all messages as read (most XMPP clients only send a read marker for the latest message).

This has side effects, if the horizon XMPP id is found, messages up to this horizon are cleared, to avoid sending the same read mark twice.

Parameters:

horizon_xmpp_id – The latest message

Returns:

A list of XMPP ids up to horizon_xmpp_id, included

property name: str

Friendly name of the contact, as it should appear in the user’s roster

set_vcard(/, full_name: str | None = None, given: str | None = None, surname: datetime.date | None = None, birthday: str | None = None, phone: collections.abc.Iterable[str] = None, phones: str | None = (), note: str | None = None, url: str | None = None, email: str | None = None, country: str | None = None, locality: str | None = None, pronouns=None) None

Update xep:0292 data for this contact.

Use this for additional metadata about this contact to be available to XMPP clients. The “note” argument is a text of arbitrary size and can be useful when no other field is a good fit.

async add_to_roster(force: bool = False) None

Add this contact to the user roster using XEP-0356

Parameters:

force – add even if the contact was already added successfully

async accept_friend_request(text: str | None = None) None

Call this to signify that this Contact has accepted to be a friend of the user.

Parameters:

text – Optional message from the friend to the user

reject_friend_request(text: str | None = None) None

Call this to signify that this Contact has refused to be a contact of the user (or that they don’t want to be friends anymore)

Parameters:

text – Optional message from the non-friend to the user

async on_friend_request(text: str = '') None

Called when receiving a “subscribe” presence, ie, “I would like to add you to my contacts/friends”, from the user to this contact.

In XMPP terms: “I would like to receive your presence updates”

This is only called if self.is_friend = False. If self.is_friend = True, slidge will automatically “accept the friend request”, ie, reply with a “subscribed” presence.

When called, a ‘friend request event’ should be sent to the legacy service, and when the contact responds, you should either call self.accept_subscription() or self.reject_subscription()

async on_friend_delete(text: str = '') None

Called when receiving an “unsubscribed” presence, ie, “I would like to remove you to my contacts/friends” or “I refuse your friend request” from the user to this contact.

In XMPP terms: “You won’t receive my presence updates anymore (or you never have)”.

async on_friend_accept() None

Called when receiving a “subscribed” presence, ie, “I accept to be your/confirm that you are my friend” from the user to this contact.

In XMPP terms: “You will receive my presence updates”.

unsubscribe() None

(internal use by slidge)

Send an “unsubscribe”, “unsubscribed”, “unavailable” presence sequence from this contact to the user, ie, “this contact has removed you from their ‘friends’”.

async update_info() None

Fetch information about this contact from the legacy network

This is awaited on Contact instantiation, and should be overridden to update the nickname, avatar, vcard […] of this contact, by making “legacy API calls”.

To take advantage of the slidge avatar cache, you can check the .avatar property to retrieve the “legacy file ID” of the cached avatar. If there is no change, you should not call slidge.core.mixins.avatar.AvatarMixin.set_avatar() or attempt to modify the .avatar property.

async fetch_vcard() None

It the legacy network doesn’t like that you fetch too many profiles on startup, it’s also possible to fetch it here, which will be called when XMPP clients of the user request the vcard, if it hasn’t been fetched before :return:

property avatar: slidge.util.types.Avatar | None

This property can be used to set or unset the avatar.

Unlike the awaitable set_avatar(), it schedules the update for later execution and is not blocking

async set_avatar(avatar: slidge.util.types.Avatar | pathlib.Path | str | None = None, delete: bool = False) None

Set an avatar for this entity

Parameters:
  • avatar – The avatar. Should ideally come with a legacy network-wide unique ID

  • delete – If the avatar is provided as a Path, whether to delete it once used or not.

serialize_extra_attributes() slidge.db.meta.JSONSerializable | None

If you want custom attributes of your instance to be stored persistently to the DB, here is where you have to return them as a dict to be used in deserialize_extra_attributes().

deserialize_extra_attributes(data: slidge.db.meta.JSONSerializable) None

This is where you get the dict that you passed in serialize_extra_attributes().

⚠ Since it is serialized as json, dictionary keys are converted to strings! Be sure to convert to other types if necessary.

invite_to(muc: slidge.util.types.AnyMUC, reason: str | None = None, password: str | None = None, **send_kwargs: object) None

Send an invitation to join a group (XEP-0249) from this XMPP Entity.

Parameters:
  • muc – the muc the user is invited to

  • reason – a text explaining why the user should join this muc

  • password – maybe this will make sense later? not sure

  • send_kwargs – additional kwargs to be passed to _send() (internal use by slidge)

gone(**kwargs: object) None

Send a “gone” (ie “contact has not interacted with the chat session interface, system, or device for a relatively long period of time”) chat state (XEP-0085) from this XMPP Entity.

async send_file(attachment: slidge.util.types.LegacyAttachment | pathlib.Path | str, legacy_msg_id: str | None = None, *, reply_to: slidge.util.types.MessageReference | None = None, when: datetime.datetime | None = None, thread: str | None = None, **kwargs: Any) tuple[str | None, list[slixmpp.Message]]

class slidge.contact.LegacyRoster(session: slidge.util.types.AnySession)

Bases: Generic[slidge.util.types.LegacyContactType], slidge.util.lock.NamedLockMixin, slidge.util.jid_escaping.EscapeMixin, slidge.util.SubclassableOnce

Virtual roster of a gateway user that allows to represent all of their contacts as singleton instances (if used properly and not too bugged).

Every BaseSession instance will have its own LegacyRoster instance accessible via the BaseSession.contacts attribute.

Typically, you will mostly use the LegacyRoster.by_legacy_id() function to retrieve a contact instance.

You might need to override LegacyRoster.legacy_id_to_jid_username() and/or LegacyRoster.jid_username_to_legacy_id() to incorporate some custom logic if you need some characters when translation JID user parts and legacy IDs.

async by_legacy_id(/, legacy_id) slidge.util.types.LegacyContactType

Retrieve a contact by their legacy_id

If the contact was not instantiated before, it will be created using slidge.LegacyRoster.legacy_id_to_jid_username() to infer their legacy user ID.

Parameters:

legacy_id

Returns:

async fill() collections.abc.AsyncIterator[slidge.util.types.LegacyContactType]

Populate slidge’s “virtual roster”.

This should yield contacts that are meant to be added to the user’s roster, typically by using await self.by_legacy_id(contact_id). Setting the contact nicknames, avatar, etc. should be in LegacyContact.update_info()

It’s not mandatory to override this method, but it is recommended way to populate “friends” of the user. Calling await (await self.by_legacy_id(contact_id)).add_to_roster() accomplishes the same thing, but doing it in here allows to batch DB queries and is better performance-wise.

async legacy_id_to_jid_username(legacy_id: str) str

Convert a legacy ID to a valid ‘user’ part of a JID.

The default implementation uses XEP-0106.

Should be overridden for cases where the str conversion of the legacy_id is not enough, e.g., if it is case-sensitive or contains forbidden characters not covered by XEP-0106.

Parameters:

legacy_id – The identifier to convert.

Returns:

A valid username part (or “local part”) of a JID.

async jid_username_to_legacy_id(jid_username: str) str

Convert a JID user part to a legacy ID.

The default implementation uses XEP-0106.

Should be overridden in case legacy IDs are not strings, or more generally for any case where the username part of a JID is not enough to identify a contact on the legacy network.

Parameters:

jid_username – User part of a JID, ie “user” in “user@example.com

Returns:

The string representation of an identifier on the legacy network.
