[[TOC(SipMSRPApi, SipDeveloperGuide, depth=2)]]
Message Session Relay Protocol (MSRP) is a protocol for transmitting a series of related Instant Messages in the context of a session. Message sessions are treated like any other media stream when set up via a rendezvous or session creation protocol such as the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP). MSRP can be used for any application that requires a reliable stream of data, for example File Transfer or Desktop Sharing.
* MSRP sessions are defined in [http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4975 RFC 4975]
* MSRP relay extension for NAT traversal is defined in [http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4976 RFC 4976]
The MSRP protocol stack is implemented by [http://download.ag-projects.com/SipClient python-msrplib] package.
{{{msrplib}}} is based upon [http://twistedmatrix.com twisted] and [http://download.ag-projects.com/SipClient/ eventlet] and provides a set of classes for establishing and managing MSRP connections.
The library consists of the following modules:
'''msrplib.transport'''::
Defines {{{MSRPTransport}}} class, which provides low level control over MSRP connections.
'''msrplib.connect'''::
Defines means to establish a connection, bind it, and provide an initialized {{{MSRPTransport}}} instance.
'''msrplib.session'''::
Defines {{{MSRPSession}}} class, which provides high level control over a MSRP connection.
'''msrplib.protocol'''::
Provides representation and parsing of MSRP entities - chunks and MSRP URIs.

Creates a new chunk ({{{protocol.MSRPData}}} instance), which is either an MSRP request or a response. Proper {{{From-Path}}}, {{{To-Path}}}, {{{Byte-Range}}} and {{{Message-ID}}} headers are added based on MSRPTransport's state and the parameters provided. Use ''data'' for payload, and ''start''/''end''/''length'' to generate the {{{Byte-Range}}} header.

[[BR]]''start'':[[BR]]
The first byte's index within the whole message payload this chunk will carry as its own payload.
[[BR]]''end'':[[BR]]
The last byte's index within the whole message payload this chunk will carry as its own payload. Note that this is an inclusive index. If this is not provided, it's computed based on the number of bytes in data and {{{start}}}.
[[BR]]''length'':[[BR]]
The total number of bytes of the whole message payload. If this is not provided, it is computed as if this chunk carries that last part of the message payload.
[[BR]]''message_id'':[[BR]]

If {{{True}}}, waits for the operation to complete.
'''read_chunk'''(''self'', '''size'''={{{None}}})::
Waits for a new chunk and returns it.
If there was an error, closes the connection and raises {{{ChunkParseError}}}.
In case of unintelligible input, loses the connection and returns {{{None}}}.
When the connection is closed, raises the reason of the closure (e.g. {{{ConnectionDone}}}).
If the data already read exceeds ''size'', stops reading the data and returns
a "virtual" chunk, i.e. the one that does not actually correspond the the real
MSRP chunk. Such chunks have Byte-Range header changed to match the number of
bytes read and continuation that is {{{'+'}}}; they also possess {{{segment}}} attribute,
an integer, starting with 1 and increasing with every new segment of the chunk.
Note, that ''size'' only hints when to interrupt the segment but does not affect
how the data is read from socket. You may have segments bigger than ''size'' and it's
legal to set ''size'' to zero (which would mean return a chunk as long as you get
some data, regardless how small).
[[BR]]''size'':[[BR]]
The hint towards how much to read from the socket. If the data already read is larger, then all the data will be returned, even if it exceeds {{{size}}} bytes.
'''check_incoming_SEND_chunk'''(''self'', '''chunk''')::

Returns None is the paths are valid for this connection.
If an error is detected an MSRPError is created and returned.

==== methods ====
'''!__init!__'''(''self'', '''fileobj''', '''size''', '''content_type'''={{{None}}}, '''position'''={{{0}}}, '''message_id'''={{{None}}})::
Initializes a new OutgoingFile using the specified file object. All arguments are available as attributes, except for {{{content_type}}} which will be part of the {{{headers}}} attribute.

A file-like object which will be used for reading the data to be sent.
[[BR]]''size'':[[BR]]
The size of the whole file.
[[BR]]''content_type'':[[BR]]
The MIME type associated with the file's data. If provided, it will be added as a Content-Type header.

[[BR]]''message_id'':[[BR]]
The message ID which will be used for sending this file.

==== methods ====
'''!__init!__'''(''self'', '''msrptransport''', '''accept_types'''={{{['*']}}}, '''on_incoming_cb'''={{{None}}})::
Initializes MSRPSession instance over the specified transport. The incoming chunks are reported through the ''on_incoming_cb'' callback.
[[BR]]''msrptransport'':[[BR]]
An instance of {{{MSRPTransport}}} over which this session will operate.
[[BR]]''accept_types'':[[BR]]
A list of MIME types which are acceptable over this session. If data is received with a Content-Type header which doesn't match this list, a negative response is sent back and the application does not get the received data. The special strings {{{'*'}}} and {{{'<type>/*'}}} can be used to match multiple MIME types.
[[BR]]''on_incoming_cb'':[[BR]]
A function which receives two arguments, both optional with default values of {{{None}}}: ''chunk'' and ''error''. This will be called when a new chunk is received.
'''send_chunk'''(''self'', '''chunk''', '''response_cb'''={{{None}}})::
Sends the specified chunk and reports the result via the ''response_cb'' callback.
When ''response_cb'' argument is present, it will be used to report
the transaction response to the caller. When a response is received or generated
locally, ''response_cb'' is called with one argument. The function must do something
quickly and must not block, because otherwise it would block the reader greenlet.
If no response was received after {{{RESPONSE_TIMEOUT}}} seconds,
* 408 response is generated if Failure-Report was {{{'yes'}}} or absent
* 200 response is generated if Failure-Report was {{{'partial'}}} or {{{'no'}}}
Note that it's rather wasteful to provide ''response_cb'' argument other than {{{None}}}
for chunks with Failure-Report='no' since it will always fire 30 seconds later
with 200 result (unless the other party is broken and ignores Failure-Report header)
If sending is not possible, {{{MSRPSessionError}}} is raised.
[[BR]]''chunk'':[[BR]]
The chunk which is to be sent. It must be an instance of {{{MSRPData}}} which represents a request.
[[BR]]''response_cb'':[[BR]]
A function receiving a single argument which will be the response received for the sent chunk.
'''deliver_chunk'''(''self'', '''chunk''', '''event'''={{{None}}})::
Sends the specified chunk and waits for the transaction response (if Failure-Report header is not {{{'no'}}}).
Returns the transaction response if it's a success or raise {{{MSRPTransactionError}}} if it's not.
If chunk's Failure-Report is {{{'no'}}}, returns {{{None}}} immediately.
[[BR]]''chunk'':[[BR]]
The chunk which is to be sent. It must be an intance of {{{MSRPData}}} which represents a request.
[[BR]]''event'':[[BR]]
The {{{eventlet.coros.event}}} object which will be used to wait for a response. It's send method will be called when a response is received. If it is not provided, one will be constructed automatically and used.
'''send_file'''(''self'', '''outgoing_file''')::
Adds the specified file to the queue of files to be sent. The method returns immediately.
[[BR]]''outgoing_file'':[[BR]]
An instance of {{{OutgoingFile}}} which represents the file to be sent.
'''shutdown'''(''self'', '''sync'''={{{True}}})::
Sends the messages already in queue then closes the connection.
== MSRPServer ==
This class is implemented in the {{{msrplib.connect}}} module.
MSRPServer solves the problem with AcceptorDirect: concurrent using of 2
or more AcceptorDirect instances on the same non-zero port is not possible.
If you initialize() those instances, one after another, one will listen on
the socket and another will get BindError.
MSRPServer avoids the problem by sharing the listening socket between multiple connections.
It has a slightly different interface from AcceptorDirect, so it cannot be considered a drop-in
replacement.
It manages the listening sockets and binds incoming requests.
==== methods ====
'''!__init!__'''(''self'', '''logger''')::
Constructs a new MSRPServer which will be using the specifed logger for its connections.
[[BR]]''logger'':[[BR]]
The default logger which will be used for this object's MSRP connections. See the [wiki:SipMSRPApi#Logging Logging] section for more information.
'''prepare'''(''self'', ''local_uri''={{{None}}}, ''logger''={{{None}}})::
Starts a listening port specified by ''local_uri'' if there isn't one on that port/interface already.
Adds ''local_uri'' to the list of expected URIs, so that incoming connections featuring this URI won't be rejected.
If ''logger'' is provided, it uses it for this connection instead of the one specified in {{{__init___}}}.
[[BR]]''local_uri'':[[BR]]
The URI which will be added to the list of expected URIs. Connections from this URI will be accepted.
[[BR]]''logger'':[[BR]]
The logger which will be used for connections from the specified URI. See the [wiki:SipMSRPApi#Logging Logging] section for more information.
'''complete'''(''self'', ''full_remote_path'')::
Waits until one of the incoming connections binds using the provided ''full_remote_path''.
Returns the connected and bound {{{MSRPTransport}}} instance.
If no such binding was made within {{{MSRPBindSessionTimeout.seconds}}}, {{{MSRPBindSessionTimeout}}} is raised.
[[BR]]''full_remote_path'':[[BR]]
A list of {{{protocol.URI}}} instances, obtained by parsing {{{'a:path'}}} put in SDP by the remote party.
'''cleanup'''(''self'', ''local_uri'')::
Removes ''local_uri'' from the list of expected URIs.
[[BR]]''local_uri'':[[BR]]
The URI which is to be removed from the list of expected URIs.

== Examples ==
=== Creating an outbound connection ===
When creating an outbound connection, a relay is not usually used because NAT traversal is not a problem for the endpoing creating the connection. If one is nevertheless desired, a {{{ConnectorRelay}}} can be used instead:
{{{
from msrplib.connect import ConnectorDirect
from msrplib.session import MSRPSession
connector = ConnectorDirect()
full_local_path = connector.prepare()
try:
# put full_local_path in SDP 'a:path' attribute of offer
# get full_remote_path from remote's 'a:path: attribute of reply
msrp_transport = connector.complete(full_remote_path)
except:
connector.cleanup()
raise
def handle_incoming(chunk=None, error=None):
if error is not None:
print 'Error: %s' % error
session.shutdown()
elif chunk is not None:
print 'Got data: %s' % chunk.data
session = MSRPSession(msrp_transport, on_incoming_cb=handle_incoming)
session.send_chunk(msrp_transport.make_chunk(data='Hello world!'))
}}}
=== Waiting for an inbound connection ===
When creating an inbound connection, a relay must be used for NAT traversal. However, if one is not desired, an {{{AceptorDirect}}} can be used instead:
{{{
from msrplib.connect import AcceptorRelay, MSRPRelaySettings
from msrplib.session import MSRPSession
relay = MSRPRelaySettings(domain='example.org', username='user', password='pass')
connector = AcceptorRelay(relay)
full_local_path = connector.prepare()
try:
# get full_remote_path from remote's 'a:path: attribute of offer
# put full_local_path in SDP 'a:path' attribute of reply
msrp_transport = connector.complete(full_remote_path)
except:
connector.cleanup()
raise
def handle_incoming(chunk=None, error=None):
if error is not None:
print 'Error: %s' % error
session.shutdown()
elif chunk is not None:
print 'Got data: %s' % chunk.data
session = MSRPSession(msrp_transport, on_incoming_cb=handle_incoming)
session.send_chunk(msrp_transport.make_chunk(data='Hello world!'))
}}}
[[TOC(SipMSRPApi, SipDeveloperGuide, depth=2)]]
Message Session Relay Protocol (MSRP) is a protocol for transmitting a series of related Instant Messages in the context of a session. Message sessions are treated like any other media stream when set up via a rendezvous or session creation protocol such as the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP). MSRP can be used for any application that requires a reliable stream of data, for example File Transfer or Desktop Sharing.
* MSRP sessions are defined in [http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4975 RFC 4975]
* MSRP relay extension for NAT traversal is defined in [http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4976 RFC 4976]
The MSRP protocol stack is implemented by [http://download.ag-projects.com/SipClient python-msrplib] package.
{{{msrplib}}} is based upon [http://twistedmatrix.com twisted] and [http://download.ag-projects.com/SipClient/ eventlet] and provides a set of classes for establishing and managing MSRP connections.

Proper {{{From-Path}}}, {{{To-Path}}}, {{{Byte-Range}}} and {{{Message-ID}}} headers are added based on MSRPTransport's state and the parameters provided. Use ''data'' for payload, and ''start''/''end''/''length'' to generate the {{{Byte-Range}}} header.

[[BR]]''start'':[[BR]]
The first byte's index within the whole message payload this chunk will carry as its own payload.
[[BR]]''end'':[[BR]]
The last byte's index within the whole message payload this chunk will carry as its own payload. Note that this is an inclusive index. If this is not provided, it's computed based on the number of bytes in data and {{{start}}}.
[[BR]]''length'':[[BR]]
The total number of bytes of the whole message payload. If this is not provided, it is computed as if this chunk carries that last part of the message payload.
[[BR]]''message_id'':[[BR]]

'''read_chunk'''(''self'', '''size'''={{{None}}})::
Waits for a new chunk and returns it.
If there was an error, closes the connection and raises {{{ChunkParseError}}}.
In case of unintelligible input, loses the connection and returns {{{None}}}.
When the connection is closed, raises the reason of the closure (e.g. {{{ConnectionDone}}}).
If the data already read exceeds ''size'', stops reading the data and returns
a "virtual" chunk, i.e. the one that does not actually correspond the the real
MSRP chunk. Such chunks have Byte-Range header changed to match the number of
bytes read and continuation that is {{{'+'}}}; they also possess {{{segment}}} attribute,
an integer, starting with 1 and increasing with every new segment of the chunk.
Note, that ''size'' only hints when to interrupt the segment but does not affect
how the data is read from socket. You may have segments bigger than ''size'' and it's
legal to set ''size'' to zero (which would mean return a chunk as long as you get
some data, regardless how small).
[[BR]]''size'':[[BR]]
The hint towards how much to read from the socket. If the data already read is larger, then all the data will be returned, even if it exceeds {{{size}}} bytes.
'''check_incoming_SEND_chunk'''(''self'', '''chunk''')::

==== methods ====
'''!__init!__'''(''self'', '''fileobj''', '''size''', '''content_type'''={{{None}}}, '''position'''={{{0}}}, '''message_id'''={{{None}}})::
Initializes a new OutgoingFile using the specified file object. All arguments are available as attributes, except for {{{content_type}}} which will be part of the {{{headers}}} attribute.

[[BR]]''size'':[[BR]]
The size of the whole file.
[[BR]]''content_type'':[[BR]]
The MIME type associated with the file's data. If provided, it will be added as a Content-Type header.

[[BR]]''message_id'':[[BR]]
The message ID which will be used for sending this file.
== MSRPSession ==
This class is implemented in the {{{msrplib.session}}} module and provides a high level API for MSRP sessions.
==== methods ====
'''!__init!__'''(''self'', '''msrptransport''', '''accept_types'''={{{['*']}}}, '''on_incoming_cb'''={{{None}}})::
Initializes MSRPSession instance over the specified transport. The incoming chunks are reported through the ''on_incoming_cb'' callback.
[[BR]]''msrptransport'':[[BR]]
An instance of {{{MSRPTransport}}} over which this session will operate.
[[BR]]''accept_types'':[[BR]]
A list of MIME types which are acceptable over this session. If data is received with a Content-Type header which doesn't match this list, a negative response is sent back and the application does not get the received data. The special strings {{{'*'}}} and {{{'<type>/*'}}} can be used to match multiple MIME types.
[[BR]]''on_incoming_cb'':[[BR]]
A function which receives two arguments, both optional with default values of {{{None}}}: ''chunk'' and ''error''. This will be called when a new chunk is received.
'''send_chunk'''(''self'', '''chunk''', '''response_cb'''={{{None}}})::
Sends the specified chunk and reports the result via the ''response_cb'' callback.
When ''response_cb'' argument is present, it will be used to report
the transaction response to the caller. When a response is received or generated
locally, ''response_cb'' is called with one argument. The function must do something
quickly and must not block, because otherwise it would block the reader greenlet.
If no response was received after {{{RESPONSE_TIMEOUT}}} seconds,
* 408 response is generated if Failure-Report was {{{'yes'}}} or absent
* 200 response is generated if Failure-Report was {{{'partial'}}} or {{{'no'}}}
Note that it's rather wasteful to provide ''response_cb'' argument other than {{{None}}}
for chunks with Failure-Report='no' since it will always fire 30 seconds later
with 200 result (unless the other party is broken and ignores Failure-Report header)
If sending is not possible, {{{MSRPSessionError}}} is raised.
[[BR]]''chunk'':[[BR]]
The chunk which is to be sent. It must be an instance of {{{MSRPData}}} which represents a request.
[[BR]]''response_cb'':[[BR]]
A function receiving a single argument which will be the response received for the sent chunk.
'''deliver_chunk'''(''self'', '''chunk''', '''event'''={{{None}}})::
Sends the specified chunk and waits for the transaction response (if Failure-Report header is not {{{'no'}}}).
Returns the transaction response if it's a success or raise {{{MSRPTransactionError}}} if it's not.
If chunk's Failure-Report is {{{'no'}}}, returns {{{None}}} immediately.
[[BR]]''chunk'':[[BR]]
The chunk which is to be sent. It must be an intance of {{{MSRPData}}} which represents a request.
[[BR]]''event'':[[BR]]
The {{{eventlet.coros.event}}} object which will be used to wait for a response. It's send method will be called when a response is received. If it is not provided, one will be constructed automatically and used.
'''send_file'''(''self'', '''outgoing_file''')::
Adds the specified file to the queue of files to be sent. The method returns immediately.
[[BR]]''outgoing_file'':[[BR]]
An instance of {{{OutgoingFile}}} which represents the file to be sent.
'''shutdown'''(''self'', '''sync'''={{{True}}})::
Sends the messages already in queue then closes the connection.
== MSRPServer ==
This class is implemented in the {{{msrplib.connect}}} module.
MSRPServer solves the problem with AcceptorDirect: concurrent using of 2
or more AcceptorDirect instances on the same non-zero port is not possible.
If you initialize() those instances, one after another, one will listen on
the socket and another will get BindError.
MSRPServer avoids the problem by sharing the listening socket between multiple connections.
It has a slightly different interface from AcceptorDirect, so it cannot be considered a drop-in
replacement.
It manages the listening sockets and binds incoming requests.
==== methods ====
'''!__init!__'''(''self'', '''logger''')::
Constructs a new MSRPServer which will be using the specifed logger for its connections.
[[BR]]''logger'':[[BR]]

Starts a listening port specified by ''local_uri'' if there isn't one on that port/interface already.
Adds ''local_uri'' to the list of expected URIs, so that incoming connections featuring this URI won't be rejected.
If ''logger'' is provided, it uses it for this connection instead of the one specified in {{{__init___}}}.
[[BR]]''local_uri'':[[BR]]
The URI which will be added to the list of expected URIs. Connections from this URI will be accepted.
[[BR]]''logger'':[[BR]]
The logger which will be used for connections from the specified URI. See the [wiki:SipMSRPApi#Logging Logging] section for more information.
'''complete'''(''self'', ''full_remote_path'')::
Waits until one of the incoming connections binds using the provided ''full_remote_path''.
Returns the connected and bound {{{MSRPTransport}}} instance.
If no such binding was made within {{{MSRPBindSessionTimeout.seconds}}}, {{{MSRPBindSessionTimeout}}} is raised.
[[BR]]''full_remote_path'':[[BR]]
A list of {{{protocol.URI}}} instances, obtained by parsing {{{'a:path'}}} put in SDP by the remote party.
'''cleanup'''(''self'', ''local_uri'')::
Removes ''local_uri'' from the list of expected URIs.
[[BR]]''local_uri'':[[BR]]
The URI which is to be removed from the list of expected URIs.
== Logging ==
Logging is done throughout the library using objects defined by the application, called loggers. If logging is not desired, the {{{application.python.Null}}} object of {{{python-application}}} can be used. These loggers must define the following methods:
==== methods ====
'''received_new_chunk'''('''data''', '''transport''', '''chunk''')::
This method is called when the start of a new chunk is received.
[[BR]]''data'':[[BR]]
The data which came along with the start of the chunk.
[[BR]]''transport'':[[BR]]
The {{{MSRPTransport}}} instance on which the chunk was received.
[[BR]]''chunk'':[[BR]]
The actual chunk object.
'''received_chunk_data'''('''data''', '''transport''', '''transaction_id''')::
This method is called when data is received as part of a chunk previously announced via '''received_new_chunk'''.
[[BR]]''data'':[[BR]]
The data received as part of the chunk.
[[BR]]''transport'':[[BR]]
The {{{MSRPTransport}}} instance on which the chunk was received.
[[BR]]''transaction_id'':[[BR]]
The transaction ID which identifies the chunk for which data was received.
'''received_chunk_end'''('''data''', '''transport''', '''transaction_id''')::
This method is called when the last data of a chunk is received. The chunk was previously announced via '''received_new_chunk'''.
[[BR]]''data'':[[BR]]
The last data received as part of the chunk.
[[BR]]''transport'':[[BR]]
The {{{MSRPTransport}}} instance on which the chunk was received.
[[BR]]''transaction_id'':[[BR]]
The transaction ID which identifies the chunk which was ended.
'''sent_new_chunk'''('''data''', '''transport''', '''chunk''')::
This method is called when the start of a new chunk is sent.
[[BR]]''data'':[[BR]]
The data which was sent along with the start of the chunk.
[[BR]]''transport'':[[BR]]
The {{{MSRPTransport}}} instance on which the chunk was sent.
[[BR]]''chunk'':[[BR]]
The actual chunk object.
'''sent_chunk_data'''('''data''', '''transport''', '''transaction_id''')::
This method is called when data is sent as part of a chunk previously announced via '''sent_new_chunk'''.
[[BR]]''data'':[[BR]]
The data sent as part of the chunk.
[[BR]]''transport'':[[BR]]
The {{{MSRPTransport}}} instance on which the chunk was sent.
[[BR]]''transaction_id'':[[BR]]
The transaction ID which identifies the chunk for which data was sent.
'''sent_chunk_end'''('''data''', '''transport''', '''transaction_id''')::
This method is called when the last data of a chunk is sent. The chunk was previously announced via '''sent_new_chunk'''.
[[BR]]''data'':[[BR]]
The last data sent as part of the chunk.
[[BR]]''transport'':[[BR]]
The {{{MSRPTransport}}} instance on which the chunk was sent.
[[BR]]''transaction_id'':[[BR]]
The transaction ID which identifies the chunk which was ended.
'''debug'''('''message''')::
This method is called when a debug level message is sent by the library.
'''info'''('''message''')::
This method is called when a info level message is sent by the library.
'''warn'''('''message''')::
This method is called when a warning level message is sent by the library.
'''error'''('''message''')::
This method is called when a error level message is sent by the library.
'''fatal'''('''message''')::
This method is called when a fatal level message is sent by the library.
== Examples ==
=== Creating an outbound connection ===
When creating an outbound connection, a relay is not usually used because NAT traversal is not a problem for the endpoing creating the connection. If one is nevertheless desired, a {{{ConnectorRelay}}} can be used instead:
{{{
from msrplib.connect import ConnectorDirect
from msrplib.session import MSRPSession
connector = ConnectorDirect()
full_local_path = connector.prepare()
try:
# put full_local_path in SDP 'a:path' attribute of offer
# get full_remote_path from remote's 'a:path: attribute of reply
msrp_transport = connector.complete(full_remote_path)
except:
connector.cleanup()
raise
def handle_incoming(chunk=None, error=None):
if error is not None:
print 'Error: %s' % error
session.shutdown()
elif chunk is not None:
print 'Got data: %s' % chunk.data
session = MSRPSession(msrp_transport, on_incoming_cb=handle_incoming)
session.send_chunk(msrp_transport.make_chunk(data='Hello world!'))
}}}
=== Waiting for an inbound connection ===
When creating an inbound connection, a relay must be used for NAT traversal. However, if one is not desired, an {{{AceptorDirect}}} can be used instead:
{{{
from msrplib.connect import AcceptorRelay, MSRPRelaySettings
from msrplib.session import MSRPSession
relay = MSRPRelaySettings(domain='example.org', username='user', password='pass')
connector = AcceptorRelay(relay)
full_local_path = connector.prepare()
try:
# get full_remote_path from remote's 'a:path: attribute of offer
# put full_local_path in SDP 'a:path' attribute of reply
msrp_transport = connector.complete(full_remote_path)
except:
connector.cleanup()
raise
def handle_incoming(chunk=None, error=None):
if error is not None:
print 'Error: %s' % error
session.shutdown()
elif chunk is not None:
print 'Got data: %s' % chunk.data
session = MSRPSession(msrp_transport, on_incoming_cb=handle_incoming)
session.send_chunk(msrp_transport.make_chunk(data='Hello world!'))
}}}
