twisted.words.protocols.jabber.xmlstream.IQ(domish.Element) class documentationtwisted.words.protocols.jabber.xmlstream
(View In Hierarchy)
Wrapper for an iq stanza.
Iq stanzas are used for communications with a request-response behaviour. Each iq request is associated with an XML stream and has its own unique id to be able to track the response.
| Instance Variable | timeout | if set, a timeout period after which the deferred returned by sendwill have its errback called with aTimeoutErrorfailure. (type:float) | 
| Method | __init__ | |
| Method | send | Send out this iq. | 
Inherited from Element:
| Instance Variable | uri | URI of this Element's name (type: unicodeor None) |

| Instance Variable | attributes | Dictionary of attributes associated with this Element. (type: dict) | 
| Instance Variable | localPrefixes | Dictionary of namespace declarations on this element. The key is the prefix
to bind the namespace uri to. (type: dict) |

| Method | __bytes__ | Retrieve the first character data node as UTF-8 bytes. | 
| Method | getAttribute | Retrieve the value of attribname, if it exists | 
| Method | hasAttribute | Determine if the specified attribute exists | 
| Method | compareAttribute | Safely compare the value of an attribute against a provided value. | 
| Method | swapAttributeValues | Swap the values of two attribute. | 
| Method | addChild | Add a child to this Element. | 
| Method | addContent | Add some text data to this Element. | 
| Method | addElement | Create an element and add as child. |

| Method | addUniqueId | Add a unique (across a given Python session) id attribute to this Element. | 
| Method | elements | Iterate across all children of this Element that are Elements. | 
| Method | toXml | Serialize this Element and all children to a string. | 
| Method | firstChildElement | Undocumented | 
| Method | _dqa | Dequalify an attribute key as needed | 
send will have its errback called with a TimeoutError
failure. (type: float)
  | Parameters | xmlstream | XmlStream to use for transmission of this IQ (type: xmlstream.XmlStream) | 
| stanzaType | IQ type identifier ('get' or 'set') (type: str) | 
Send out this iq.
Returns a deferred that is fired when an iq response with the same id is
received. Result responses will be passed to the deferred callback. Error 
responses will be transformed into a StanzaError
and result in the errback of the deferred being invoked.
| Returns | (type: defer.Deferred) | |
