NAME

       "Net::Async::Matrix" - use Matrix with IO::Async

SYNOPSIS

        use Net::Async::Matrix;
        use IO::Async::Loop;

        my $loop = IO::Async::Loop->new;

        my $matrix = Net::Async::Matrix->new(
           server => "my.home.server",
        );

        $loop->add( $matrix );

        $matrix->login(
           user_id  => '@my-user:home.server',
           password => 'SeKr1t',
        )->get;

DESCRIPTION

       Matrix is an new open standard for interoperable Instant Messaging and VoIP, providing
       pragmatic HTTP APIs and open source reference implementations for creating and running
       your own real-time communication infrastructure.

       This module allows an program to interact with a Matrix homeserver as a connected user
       client.

EVENTS

       The following events are invoked, either using subclass methods or "CODE" references in
       parameters:

   on_log $message
       A request to write a debugging log message. This is provided temporarily for development
       and debugging purposes, but will at some point be removed when the code has reached a
       certain level of stability.

   on_presence $user, %changes
       Invoked on receipt of a user presence change event from the homeserver.  %changes will map
       user state field names to 2-element ARRAY references, each containing the old and new
       values of that field.

   on_room_new $room
       Invoked when a new room first becomes known about.

       Passed an instance of Net::Async::Matrix::Room.

   on_room_del $room
       Invoked when the user has now left a room.

   on_invite $event
       Invoked on receipt of a room invite. The $event will contain the plain Matrix event as
       received; with at least the keys "inviter" and "room_id".

   on_unknown_event $event
       Invoked on receipt of any sort of event from the event stream, that is not recognised by
       any of the other code. This can be used to handle new kinds of incoming events.

PARAMETERS

       The following named parameters may be passed to "new" or "configure". In addition, "CODE"
       references for event handlers using the event names listed above can also be given.

   server => STRING
       Hostname and port number to contact the homeserver at. Given in the form

        $hostname:$port

       This string will be interpolated directly into HTTP request URLs.

   SSL => BOOL
       Whether to use SSL/TLS to communicate with the homeserver. Defaults false.

   SSL_* => ...
       Any other parameters whose names begin "SSL_" will be stored for passing to the HTTP user
       agent. See IO::Socket::SSL for more detail.

   path_prefix => STRING
       Optional. Gives the path prefix to find the Matrix client API at. Normally this should not
       need modification.

   on_room_member, on_room_message => CODE
       Optional. Sets default event handlers on new room objects.

   enable_events => BOOL
       Optional. Normally enabled, but if set to a defined-but-false value (i.e. 0 or empty
       string) the event stream will be disabled. This will cause none of the incoming event
       handlers to be invoked, because the server will not be polled for events.

       This may be useful in simple send-only cases where the client has no interest in
       receiveing any events, and wishes to reduce the load on the homeserver.

   longpoll_timeout => NUM
       Optional. Timeout in seconds for the "/events" longpoll operation. Defaults to 30 seconds
       if not supplied.

   first_sync_limit => NUM
       Optional. Number of events per room to fetch on the first "/sync" request on startup.
       Defaults to the server's builtin value if not defined, which is likely to be 10.

METHODS

       The following methods documented with a trailing call to "->get" return Future instances.

   login
          $matrix->login( %params )->get

       Performs the necessary steps required to authenticate with the configured Home Server,
       actually obtain an access token and starting the event stream (unless disabled by the
       "enable_events" option being false). The returned "Future" will eventually yield the
       $matrix object itself, so it can be easily chained.

       There are various methods of logging in supported by Matrix; the following sets of
       arguments determine which is used:

       user_id, password
           Log in via the "m.login.password" method.

       user_id, access_token
           Directly sets the "user_id" and "access_token" fields, bypassing the usual login
           semantics. This presumes you already have an existing access token to re-use, obtained
           by some other mechanism. This exists largely for testing purposes.

   register
          $matrix->register( %params )->get

       Performs the necessary steps required to create a new account on the configured Home
       Server.

   sync
          $matrix->sync( %params )->get

       Performs a single "/sync" request on the server, returning the raw results directly.

       Takes the following named parameters

       since => STRING
           Optional. Sync token from the previous request.

   start
          $f = $matrix->start

       Performs the initial sync on the server, and starts the event stream to begin receiving
       events.

       While this method does return a "Future" it is not required that the caller keep track of
       this; the object itself will store it. It will complete when the initial sync has
       fininshed, and the event stream has started.

       If the initial sync has already been requested, this method simply returns the future it
       returned the last time, ensuring that you can await the client starting up simply by
       calling it; it will not start a second time.

   stop
          $matrix->stop

       Stops the event stream. After calling this you will need to use "start" again to continue
       receiving events.

   myself
          $user = $matrix->myself

       Returns the user object representing the connected user.

   user
          $user = $matrix->user( $user_id )

       Returns the user object representing a user of the given ID, if defined, or "undef".

   get_displayname
   set_displayname
          $name = $matrix->get_displayname->get

          $matrix->set_displayname( $name )->get

       Accessor and mutator for the user account's "display name" profile field.

   get_presence
   set_presence
          ( $presence, $msg ) = $matrix->get_presence->get

          $matrix->set_presence( $presence, $msg )->get

       Accessor and mutator for the user's current presence state and optional status message
       string.

   create_room
          ( $room, $room_alias ) = $matrix->create_room( $alias_localpart )->get

       Requests the creation of a new room and associates a new alias with the given localpart on
       the server. The returned "Future" will return an instance of Net::Async::Matrix::Room and
       a string containing the full alias that was created.

   join_room
          $room = $matrix->join_room( $room_alias_or_id )->get

       Requests to join an existing room with the given alias name or plain room ID.  If this
       room is already known by the $matrix object, this method simply returns it.

   add_alias
   delete_alias
          $matrix->add_alias( $alias, $room_id )->get

          $matrix->delete_alias( $alias )->get

       Performs a directory server request to create the given room alias name, to point at the
       room ID, or to remove it again.

       Note that this is likely only to be supported for alias names scoped within the homeserver
       the client is connected to, and that additionally some form of permissions system may be
       in effect on the server to limit access to the directory server.

   upload
          $content_uri = $matrix->upload( %params )->get

       Performs a post to the server's media content repository, to upload a new piece of
       content, returning the content URI that points to it.

       The content can be specified in any of three ways, with the following three mutually-
       exclusive arguments:

       content => STRING
           Gives the content directly as an immediate scalar value.

       file => STRING
           Gives the path to a readable file on the filesystem containing the content.

       fh => IO
           Gives an opened IO handle the content can be read from.

       The following additional arguments are also recognised:

       content_type => STRING
           Gives the MIME type of the content data.

       content_length => INT
           Optional. If the content is being delivered from an opened filehandle (via the "fh"
           argument), this gives the total length in bytes. This is required in cases such as
           reading from pipes, when the length of the content isn't immediately available such as
           by "stat()"ing the filehandle.

   convert_mxc_url
          $url = $matrix->convert_mxc_url( $mxc )

       Given a plain string or URI instance containing a Matrix media URL (in the "mxc:" scheme),
       returns an "http:" or "https:" URL in the form of an URI instance pointing at the media
       repository on the user's local homeserver where it can be downloaded from.

USER STRUCTURES

       Parameters documented as $user receive a user struct, which supports the following
       methods:

   $user_id = $user->user_id
       User ID of the user.

   $displayname = $user->displayname
       Profile displayname of the user.

   $presence = $user->presence
       Presence state. One of "offline", "unavailable" or "online".

   $last_active = $user->last_active
       Epoch time that the user was last active.

SUBCLASSING METHODS

       The following methods are not normally required by users of this class, but are provided
       for the convenience of subclasses to override.

   $room = $matrix->make_room( %params )
       Returns a new instance of Net::Async::Matrix::Room.
