XEP-0066: Out of Band Data

Out of Band Data is a basic method for transferring files between XMPP agents. The URL of the resource in question is sent to the receiving entity, which then downloads the resource before responding to the OOB request. OOB is also used as a generic means to transmit URLs in other stanzas to indicate where to find additional information.

Also see <http://www.xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0066.html>.

Events:

oob_transfer – Raised when a request to download a resource

has been received.

• handler – If None, then remove the existing handler for the given JID, or reset the global handler if the JID is None.

send_oob(to, url, desc=None, ifrom=None, **iqargs)[source]¶

Initiate a basic file transfer by sending the URL of a file or other resource.
