[[TOC(WikiStart, Sip*, depth=3)]]
This chapter describes the event driven middleware API that can be used by a developer to build a user interface for SIP SIMPLE client library.
* To communicate with other sub-systems, the middleware uses the notification system provided by the [http://pypi.python.org/pypi/python-application python-application] package
* The middleware use the [wiki:SipConfigurationAPI configuration API] to access general and SIP account settings

== Classes ==
=== Session ===
A {{{sipsimple.session.Session}}} object represents a complete SIP session between the local and a remote endpoints, including media streams.
The currently supported media streams are audio and MSRP chat.
Both incoming and outgoing sessions are represented by this class.
A {{{Session}}} instance is a stateful object, meaning that it has a {{{state}}} attribute and that the lifetime of the session traverses different states, from session creation to termination.
State changes are triggered by methods called on the object by the application or by received network events.
Every time this attribute changes, a {{{SIPSessionChangedState}}} notification is sent by the object.
These states and their transitions are represented in the following diagram:
[[Image(sipsimple-session-state-machine.png)]]
Although these states are crucial to the correct operation of the {{{Session}}} object, an application using this object does not need to keep track of these states, as a different set of notifications is also emitted, which provide all the necessary information to the application.
==== attributes ====
'''state'''::
The state the object is currently in, being one of the states from the diagram above.
'''account'''::
The {{{sipsimple.account.Account}}} or {{{sipsimple.account.BonjourAccount}}} object that the {{{Session}}} is associated with.

}}}
=== SessionManager ===
The {{{sipsimple.session.SessionManager}}} class is a singleton, which acts as the central aggregation point for sessions within the middleware.
Although it is mainly used internally, the application can use it to query information about all active sessions.
The SessionManager is implemented as a singleton, meaning that only one instance of this class exists within the middleware.
Note that, in order to be able to receive calls, the application has to instantiate this object.
==== attributes ====
'''sessions'''::
A property providing a copy of the list of all active {{{Sesssion}}} objects within the application, meaning any {{{Session}}} object that exists globally within the application and is not in the {{{NULL}}} or {{{TERMINATED}}} state.
==== methods ====
'''!__init!__'''(''self'')::
This either returns a new {{{SessionManager}}} object with default configuration objects, or returns a copy of the already existing instance.
=== Account ===
The {{{sipsimple.account.Account} objects represent the SIP accounts which are used by the middleware. It has a dual purpose: it acts as both a container for account-related settings and as a complex object which can be used to interact with various per-account functions, such as presence, registration etc. This page documents the latter case, while the former is explained in the [wiki:SipConfigurationAPI#Account Configuration API].
There is exactly one instance of {{{Account}}} per SIP account used and it is uniquely identifiable by its SIP ID, in the form ''user@domain''. It is a singleton, in the sense that instantiating {{{Account}}} using an already used SIP ID will return the same object. However, this is not the recommended way of accessing accounts, as this can lead to creation of new ones; the recommended way is by using the [wiki:SipMiddlewareApi#AccountManager AccountManager]. The next sections will use a lowercase, monospaced {{{account}}} to represent an instance of {{{Account}}}.
==== Account states ====
The {{{Account}}} objects have a setting flag called {{{enabled}}} which, if set to {{{False}}} will deactivate it: none of the internal functions will work in this case; in addition, the application using the middleware should not do anything with a disabled account. After changing it's value, the {{{save()}}} method needs to be called, as the flag is a setting and will not be used until this method is called:
{{{
account.enabled = True
account.save()
}}}
The other functions of {{{Account}}} which run automatically have other enabled flags as well. They will only be activated when both the global enabled flag is set and the function-specific one. These are:
'''Account.registration.enabled'''::
This flag controls the automatic registration of the account. The notifications '''SIPAccountRegistrationDidSucceed''', '''SIPAccountRegistrationDidFail''' and '''SIPAccountRegistrationDidEnd''' are used to inform the status of this registration.
'''Account.presence.enabled'''::
This flag controls the automatic subscription to buddies for the ''presence'' event and the publication of data in this event. (Not implemented yet)
'''Account.dialog_event.enabled'''::
This flag controls the automatic subscription to buddies for the ''dialog-info'' event and the publication of data in this event. (Not implemented yet)
'''Account.message_summary.enabled'''::
This flag controls the automatic subscription to the ''message-summary'' event in order to find out about voicemail messages. (Not implemented yet)
The {{{save()}}} method needs to be called after changing these flags in order for them to take effect.
==== attributes ====
The following attributes can be used on an Account object and need to be considered read-only.
'''id'''::
This attribute is of type {{{sipsimple.configuration.datatypes.SIPAddress}}} (a subclass of {{{str}}}) and contains the SIP id of the account. It can be used as a normal string in the form ''user@domain'', but it also allows access to the components via the attributes {{{username}}} and {{{domain}}}.
{{{
account.id # 'alice@example.com'
account.id.username # 'alice'
account.id.domain # 'example.com'
}}}
'''contact'''::
This attribute can be used to construct the Contact URI for SIP requests sent on behalf of this account. It's type is {{{sipsimple.account.ContactURI}}} which is a subclass of {{{sipsimple.configuration.datatypes.SIPAddress}}}. In addition to the attributes defined in {{{SIPAddress}}}, it can be indexed by a string representing a transport ({{{'udp'}}}, {{{'tcp'}}} or {{{'tls'}}}) which will return a {{{sipsimple.core.SIPURI}}} object with the appropriate port and transport parameter. The username part is a randomly generated 8 character string consisting of lowercase letters; the domain part is the IP address on which the {{{Engine}}} is listening (as specified by the SIPSimpleSettings.local_ip setting).
{{{
account.contact # 'hnfkybrt@10.0.0.1'
account.contact.username # 'hnfkybrt'
account.contact.domain # '10.0.0.1'
account.contact['udp'] # <SIPURI "sip:hnfkybrt@10.0.0.1:53024">
account.contact['tls'] # <SIPURI "sip:hnfkybrt@10.0.0.1:54478;transport=tls">

[[TOC(WikiStart, Sip*, depth=3)]]
This chapter describes the event driven middleware API that can be used by a developer to build a user interface for SIP SIMPLE client library.
* To communicate with other sub-systems, the middleware uses the notification system provided by the [http://pypi.python.org/pypi/python-application python-application] package
* The middleware use the [wiki:SipConfigurationAPI configuration API] to access general and SIP account settings

== Classes ==
=== Session ===
A {{{sipsimple.session.Session}}} object represents a complete SIP session between the local and a remote endpoints, including media streams.
The currently supported media streams are audio and MSRP chat.
Both incoming and outgoing sessions are represented by this class.
A {{{Session}}} instance is a stateful object, meaning that it has a {{{state}}} attribute and that the lifetime of the session traverses different states, from session creation to termination.
State changes are triggered by methods called on the object by the application or by received network events.
Every time this attribute changes, a {{{SIPSessionChangedState}}} notification is sent by the object.
These states and their transitions are represented in the following diagram:
[[Image(sipsimple-session-state-machine.png)]]
Although these states are crucial to the correct operation of the {{{Session}}} object, an application using this object does not need to keep track of these states, as a different set of notifications is also emitted, which provide all the necessary information to the application.

}}}
=== SessionManager ===
The {{{sipsimple.session.SessionManager}}} class is a singleton, which acts as the central aggregation point for sessions within the middleware.
Although it is mainly used internally, the application can use it to query information about all active sessions.
The SessionManager is implemented as a singleton, meaning that only one instance of this class exists within the middleware.
Note that, in order to be able to receive calls, the application has to instantiate this object.
==== attributes ====
'''sessions'''::
A property providing a copy of the list of all active {{{Sesssion}}} objects within the application, meaning any {{{Session}}} object that exists globally within the application and is not in the {{{NULL}}} or {{{TERMINATED}}} state.
==== methods ====
'''!__init!__'''(''self'')::
This either returns a new {{{SessionManager}}} object with default configuration objects, or returns a copy of the already existing instance.
=== Account ===
The {{{sipsimple.account.Account} objects represent the SIP accounts which are used by the middleware. It has a dual purpose: it acts as both a container for account-related settings and as a complex object which can be used to interact with various per-account functions, such as presence, registration etc. This page documents the latter case, while the former is explained in the [wiki:SipConfigurationAPI#Account Configuration API].
There is exactly one instance of {{{Account}}} per SIP account used and it is uniquely identifiable by its SIP ID, in the form ''user@domain''. It is a singleton, in the sense that instantiating {{{Account}}} using an already used SIP ID will return the same object. However, this is not the recommended way of accessing accounts, as this can lead to creation of new ones; the recommended way is by using the [wiki:SipMiddlewareApi#AccountManager AccountManager]. The next sections will use a lowercase, monospaced {{{account}}} to represent an instance of {{{Account}}}.
==== Account states ====
The {{{Account}}} objects have a setting flag called {{{enabled}}} which, if set to {{{False}}} will deactivate it: none of the internal functions will work in this case; in addition, the application using the middleware should not do anything with a disabled account. After changing it's value, the {{{save()}}} method needs to be called, as the flag is a setting and will not be used until this method is called:
{{{
account.enabled = True
account.save()
}}}
The other functions of {{{Account}}} which run automatically have other enabled flags as well. They will only be activated when both the global enabled flag is set and the function-specific one. These are:
'''Account.registration.enabled'''::
This flag controls the automatic registration of the account. The notifications '''SIPAccountRegistrationDidSucceed''', '''SIPAccountRegistrationDidFail''' and '''SIPAccountRegistrationDidEnd''' are used to inform the status of this registration.
'''Account.presence.enabled'''::
This flag controls the automatic subscription to buddies for the ''presence'' event and the publication of data in this event. (Not implemented yet)
'''Account.dialog_event.enabled'''::
This flag controls the automatic subscription to buddies for the ''dialog-info'' event and the publication of data in this event. (Not implemented yet)
'''Account.message_summary.enabled'''::
This flag controls the automatic subscription to the ''message-summary'' event in order to find out about voicemail messages. (Not implemented yet)
The {{{save()}}} method needs to be called after changing these flags in order for them to take effect.
==== attributes ====
The following attributes can be used on an Account object and need to be considered read-only.
'''id'''::
This attribute is of type {{{sipsimple.configuration.datatypes.SIPAddress}}} (a subclass of {{{str}}}) and contains the SIP id of the account. It can be used as a normal string in the form ''user@domain'', but it also allows access to the components via the attributes {{{username}}} and {{{domain}}}.
{{{
account.id # 'alice@example.com'
account.id.username # 'alice'
account.id.domain # 'example.com'
}}}
'''contact'''::
This attribute can be used to construct the Contact URI for SIP requests sent on behalf of this account. It's type is {{{sipsimple.account.ContactURI}}} which is a subclass of {{{sipsimple.configuration.datatypes.SIPAddress}}}. In addition to the attributes defined in {{{SIPAddress}}}, it can be indexed by a string representing a transport ({{{'udp'}}}, {{{'tcp'}}} or {{{'tls'}}}) which will return a {{{sipsimple.core.SIPURI}}} object with the appropriate port and transport parameter. The username part is a randomly generated 8 character string consisting of lowercase letters; the domain part is the IP address on which the {{{Engine}}} is listening (as specified by the SIPSimpleSettings.local_ip setting).
{{{
account.contact # 'hnfkybrt@10.0.0.1'
account.contact.username # 'hnfkybrt'
account.contact.domain # '10.0.0.1'
account.contact['udp'] # <SIPURI "sip:hnfkybrt@10.0.0.1:53024">
account.contact['tls'] # <SIPURI "sip:hnfkybrt@10.0.0.1:54478;transport=tls">
