Stanza elements

class slixmpp.plugins.xep_0080.stanza.Geoloc(xml=None, parent=None)

XMPP’s <geoloc> stanza allows entities to know the current geographical or physical location of an entity. (XEP-0080: User Location)

Example <geoloc> stanzas:

<geoloc xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/geoloc'/>

<geoloc xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/geoloc' xml:lang='en'>
  <accuracy>20</accuracy>
  <country>Italy</country>
  <lat>45.44</lat>
  <locality>Venice</locality>
  <lon>12.33</lon>
</geoloc>

interfaces: ClassVar[Set[str]] = {'accuracy', 'alt', 'area', 'bearing', 'building', 'country', 'countrycode', 'datum', 'dscription', 'error', 'floor', 'lat', 'locality', 'lon', 'postalcode', 'region', 'room', 'speed', 'street', 'text', 'timestamp', 'uri'}

The set of keys that the stanza provides for accessing and manipulating the underlying XML object. This set may be augmented with the plugin_attrib value of any registered stanza plugins.

iterables: List[ElementBase]

A list of child stanzas whose class is included in plugin_iterables.

loaded_plugins: Set[str]

name: ClassVar[str] = 'geoloc'

The XML tag name of the element, not including any namespace prefixes. For example, an ElementBase object for <message /> would use name = 'message'.

namespace: str = 'http://jabber.org/protocol/geoloc'

The XML namespace for the element. Given <foo xmlns="bar" />, then namespace = "bar" should be used. The default namespace is jabber:client since this is being used in an XMPP library.

parent: Optional[ReferenceType[ElementBase]]

A weakref.weakref to the parent stanza, if there is one. If not, then parent is None.

plugin_attrib: ClassVar[str] = 'geoloc'

For ElementBase subclasses which are intended to be used as plugins, the plugin_attrib value defines the plugin name. Plugins may be accessed by using the plugin_attrib value as the interface. An example using plugin_attrib = 'foo':

register_stanza_plugin(Message, FooPlugin)
msg = Message()
msg['foo']['an_interface_from_the_foo_plugin']

plugins: Dict[Tuple[str, Optional[str]], ElementBase]

An ordered dictionary of plugin stanzas, mapped by their plugin_attrib value.

set_accuracy(accuracy)

Set the value of the <accuracy> element.

Parameters

accuracy – Horizontal GPS error in meters

set_alt(alt)

Set the value of the <alt> element.

Parameters

alt – Altitude in meters above or below sea level

set_bearing(bearing)

Set the value of the <bearing> element.

Parameters

bearing – GPS bearing (direction in which the entity is heading to reach its next waypoint), measured in decimal degrees relative to true north

set_error(error)

Set the value of the <error> element.

Parameters

error – Horizontal GPS error in arc minutes; this element is deprecated in favor of <accuracy/>

set_lat(lat)

Set the value of the <lat> element.

Parameters

lat – Latitude in decimal degrees North

set_lon(lon)

Set the value of the <lon> element.

Parameters

lon – Longitude in decimal degrees East

set_speed(speed)

Set the value of the <speed> element.

Parameters

speed – The speed at which the entity is moving, in meters per second

set_timestamp(timestamp)

Set the value of the <timestamp> element.

Parameters

timestamp – UTC timestamp specifying the moment when the reading was taken

sub_interfaces: ClassVar[Set[str]] = {'accuracy', 'alt', 'area', 'bearing', 'building', 'country', 'countrycode', 'datum', 'dscription', 'error', 'floor', 'lat', 'locality', 'lon', 'postalcode', 'region', 'room', 'speed', 'street', 'text', 'timestamp', 'uri'}

A subset of interfaces which maps interfaces to direct subelements of the underlying XML object. Using this set, the text of these subelements may be set, retrieved, or removed without needing to define custom methods.

tag: str

The name of the tag for the stanza’s root element. It is the same as calling tag_name() and is formatted as '{namespace}elementname'.

xml: ET.Element

The underlying XML object for the stanza. It is a standard xml.etree.ElementTree object.
