%%% @doc Management of ejabberd commands.
%%%
%%% An ejabberd command is an abstract function identified by a name,
%%% with a defined number and type of calling arguments and type of
%%% result, that can be defined in any Erlang module and executed
%%% using any valid frontend.
%%%
%%%
%%% == Define a new ejabberd command ==
%%%
%%% ejabberd commands can be defined and registered in
%%% any Erlang module.
%%%
%%% Some commands are procedures; and their purpose is to perform an
%%% action in the server, so the command result is only some result
%%% code or result tuple. Other commands are inspectors, and their
%%% purpose is to gather some information about the server and return
%%% a detailed response: it can be integer, string, atom, tuple, list
%%% or a mix of those ones.
%%%
%%% The arguments and result of an ejabberd command are strictly
%%% defined. The number and format of the arguments provided when
%%% calling an ejabberd command must match the definition of that
%%% command. The format of the result provided by an ejabberd command
%%% must be exactly its definition. For example, if a command is said
%%% to return an integer, it must always return an integer (except in
%%% case of a crash).
%%%
%%% If you are developing an Erlang module that will run inside
%%% ejabberd and you want to provide a new ejabberd command to
%%% administer some task related to your module, you only need to:
%%% implement a function, define the command, and register it.
%%%
%%%
%%% === Define a new ejabberd command ===
%%%
%%% An ejabberd command is defined using the Erlang record
%%% 'ejabberd_commands'. This record has several elements that you
%%% must define. Note that 'tags', 'desc' and 'longdesc' are optional.
%%%
%%% For example let's define an ejabberd command 'pow' that gets the
%%% integers 'base' and 'exponent'. Its result will be an integer
%%% 'power':
%%%
%%% <pre>#ejabberd_commands{name = pow, tags = [test],
%%% desc = "Return the power of base for exponent",
%%% longdesc = "This is an example command. The formula is:\n"
%%% " power = base ^ exponent",
%%% module = ?MODULE, function = pow,
%%% args = [{base, integer}, {exponent, integer}],
%%% result = {power, integer}}</pre>
%%%
%%%
%%% === Implement the function associated to the command ===
%%%
%%% Now implement a function in your module that matches the arguments
%%% and result of the ejabberd command.
%%%
%%% For example the function calc_power gets two integers Base and
%%% Exponent. It calculates the power and rounds to an integer:
%%%
%%% <pre>calc_power(Base, Exponent) ->
%%% PowFloat = math:pow(Base, Exponent),
%%% round(PowFloat).</pre>
%%%
%%% Since this function will be called by ejabberd_commands, it must be exported.
%%% Add to your module:
%%% <pre>-export([calc_power/2]).</pre>
%%%
%%% Only some types of result formats are allowed.
%%% If the format is defined as 'rescode', then your function must return:
%%% ok | true | atom()
%%% where the atoms ok and true as considered positive answers,
%%% and any other response atom is considered negative.
%%%
%%% If the format is defined as 'restuple', then the command must return:
%%% {rescode(), string()}
%%%
%%% If the format is defined as '{list, something()}', then the command
%%% must return a list of something().
%%%
%%%
%%% === Register the command ===
%%%
%%% Define this function and put inside the #ejabberd_command you
%%% defined in the beginning:
%%%
%%% <pre>commands() ->
%%% [
%%%
%%% ].</pre>
%%%
%%% You need to include this header file in order to use the record:
%%%
%%% <pre>-include("ejabberd_commands.hrl").</pre>
%%%
%%% When your module is initialized or started, register your commands:
%%%
%%% <pre>ejabberd_commands:register_commands(commands()),</pre>
%%%
%%% And when your module is stopped, unregister your commands:
%%%
%%% <pre>ejabberd_commands:unregister_commands(commands()),</pre>
%%%
%%% That's all! Now when your module is started, the command will be
%%% registered and any frontend can access it. For example:
%%%
%%% <pre>$ ejabberdctl help pow
%%%
%%% Command Name: pow
%%%
%%% Arguments: base::integer
%%% exponent::integer
%%%
%%% Returns: power::integer
%%%
%%% Tags: test
%%%
%%% Description: Return the power of base for exponent
%%%
%%% This is an example command. The formula is:
%%% power = base ^ exponent
%%%
%%% $ ejabberdctl pow 3 4
%%% 81
%%% </pre>
%%%
%%%
%%% == Execute an ejabberd command ==
%%%
%%% ejabberd commands are mean to be executed using any valid
%%% frontend. An ejabberd commands is implemented in a regular Erlang
%%% function, so it is also possible to execute this function in any
%%% Erlang module, without dealing with the associated ejabberd
%%% commands.
%%%
%%%
%%% == Frontend to ejabberd commands ==
%%%
%%% Currently there are two frontends to ejabberd commands: the shell
%%% script {@link ejabberd_ctl. ejabberdctl}, and the XML-RPC server
%%% ejabberd_xmlrpc.
%%%
%%%
%%% === ejabberdctl as a frontend to ejabberd commands ===
%%%
%%% It is possible to use ejabberdctl to get documentation of any
%%% command. But ejabberdctl does not support all the argument types
%%% allowed in ejabberd commands, so there are some ejabberd commands
%%% that cannot be executed using ejabberdctl.
%%%
%%% Also note that the ejabberdctl shell administration script also
%%% manages ejabberdctl commands, which are unrelated to ejabberd
%%% commands and can only be executed using ejabberdctl.
%%%
%%%
%%% === ejabberd_xmlrpc as a frontend to ejabberd commands ===
%%%
%%% ejabberd_xmlrpc provides an XML-RPC server to execute ejabberd commands.
%%% ejabberd_xmlrpc is a contributed module published in ejabberd-modules SVN.
%%%
%%% Since ejabberd_xmlrpc does not provide any method to get documentation
%%% of the ejabberd commands, please use ejabberdctl to know which
%%% commands are available, and their usage.
%%%
%%% The number and format of the arguments provided when calling an
%%% ejabberd command must match the definition of that command. Please
%%% make sure the XML-RPC call provides the required arguments, with
%%% the specified format. The order of the arguments in an XML-RPC
%%% call is not important, because all the data is tagged and will be
%%% correctly prepared by ejabberd_xmlrpc before executing the ejabberd
%%% command.
%%% TODO: consider this feature:
%%% All commands are catched. If an error happens, return the restuple:
%%% {error, flattened error string}
%%% This means that ecomm call APIs (ejabberd_ctl, ejabberd_xmlrpc) need to allows this.
%%% And ejabberd_xmlrpc must be prepared to handle such an unexpected response.
