NAME

Net::Jabber::Server - Jabber Server Library

SYNOPSIS

Net::Jabber::Server is a module that provides a developer easy access
to developing applications that need an embedded Jabber server.

DESCRIPTION

Server.pm seeks to provide enough high level APIs and automation of
the low level APIs that writing and spawning a Jabber Server in Perl
is trivial.  For those that wish to work with the low level you can
do that too, but those functions are covered in the documentation for
each module.

Net::Jabber::Server provides functions to run a full Jabber server that
accepts incoming connections and delivers packets to external Jabber
servers.  You can use all or none of the functions, there is no requirement.

For more information on how the details for how Net::Jabber is written
please see the help for Net::Jabber itself.

For a full list of high level functions available please see
Net::Jabber::Protocol.

Basic Functions

    use Net::Jabber qw(Server);

    $Server = new Net::Jabber::Server();

    $Server->Start();
    $Server->Start(jabberxml=>"custom_jabber.xml",
	           hostname=>"foobar.net");

    $Server->Stop();

METHODS

Basic Functions

    new(debuglevel=>0|1|2, - creates the Server object.  debugfile
        debugfile=>string,   should be set to the path for the debug
        debugtime=>0|1)      log to be written.  If set to "stdout"
                             then the debug will go there.  debuglevel
                             controls the amount of debug.  For more
                             information about the valid setting for
                             debuglevel, debugfile, and debugtime see
                             Net::Jabber::Debug.

    Start(hostname=>string, - starts the server listening on the proper
	  jaberxml=>string)   ports.  hostname is a quick way of telling
                              the server the hostname to listen on.
                              jabberxml defines the path to a different
                              jabberd configuration file (default is
                              "./jabber.xml").

    Stop() - stops the server from running and shuts down all sub programs.
