SIP SIMPLE Client SDK

= Middleware API =

[[TOC(WikiStart, Sip*, depth=3)]]

[[Image(sipsimple-middleware.png, align=right, 400px)]]

This chapter describes the middleware API that can be used by a developer to easily build a user interface for SIP SIMPLE client library. By using this Python API you can easily create a desktop graphical client or a server application for real-time communications based on SIP standards. 

The middleware is event driven and uses a [wiki:SipSettingsAPI configuration framework] to access various settings for the SIP accounts.

== Classes ==

=== SessionManager ===

The {{{sipsimple.session.SessionManager}}} class is a singleton which acts as the central aggregation point for sessions within the middleware.

The application can use it to query information about the active sessions and set global configuration options relevant to sessions, such as transport options and ringtones.

In order to achieve the latter, the {{{SessionManager}}} instance contains three configuration attributes that can be inspected and modified at runtime.

When a {{{Session}}} is created, either as by the application on an outbound session or by the middleware as an inbound session, these configuration attributes will be copied from the {{{SessionManager}}}.

> The SessionManager will be integrated with both the configuration framework and the accountmanager, meaning that the part of this API regarding configuration is is subject to change.

==== 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.

 '''ringtone_config'''::

  A {{{RingtoneConfiguration}}} object, which manages the ringtones that should be played on new inbound and outbound sessions.

 '''rtp_config'''::

  A {{{RTPConfiguration}}} object, which indicates which options should be used when creating a new RTP transport for use by an audio stream.

 '''msrp_config'''::

  A {{{MSRPConfiguration}}} object, which provides the options that should be used when creating a new MSRP transport used for chat.

==== methods ====

 '''!__init!__'''(''self'')::

  This either returns a new {{{SessionManager}}} object with default configuration objects, or returns a copy of the already existing instance.

=== RingtoneConfiguration ===

A {{{sipsimple.session.RingtoneConfiguration}}} object is contained in the {{{SessionManager}}} and acts as a registration point for both default ringtones and ringtones per incoming SIP URI.

==== attributes ====

 '''default_inbound_ringtone'''::

  A string pointing to a {{{.wav}}} file on the filesystem that should be played on an incoming session when the remote SIP URI cannot be matched to any of the registered ones.

  If this is set to {{{None}}}, no ringtone is played in this situation.

 '''outbound_ringtone'''::

  A string pointing to a {{{.wav}}} file on the filesystem that should be played when an outbound session receives a ringing indication from the remote party.

  If this is set to {{{None}}}, no ringtone is played in this situation.

==== methods ====

 '''!__init!__'''(''self'')::

  Creates a new {{{RingtoneConfiguration}}} object with both attributes set to {{{None}}} and no SIP URIs registered.

 '''add_ringtone_for_sipuri'''(''self'', '''sipuri''', '''ringtone''')::

  Registers a ringtone, in the form of a string pointing to a {{{.wav}}} file, to be played back when a incoming session is received from a remote party with the specified SIP URI, in the form of a {{{sipsimple.core.SIPURI}}} object.

  This will possibly override a previously registered ringtone.

 '''remove_sipuri'''(''self'', '''sipuri''')::

  Removes the ringtone of a previously registered SIP URI.

 '''get_ringtone_for_sipuri'''(''self'', '''sipuri''')::

  Retrieve the ringtone to use when receiving an inbound session from the specified SIP URI, as a {{{sipsimple.core.SIPURI}}} object.

  If no ringtone was registed, this will return {{{default_inbound_ringtone}}}.

=== RTPConfiguration ===

A {{{sipsimple.session.RTPConfiguration}}} object contains parameters that should be used when creating a new RTP transport, used by a {{{Session}}} object for an audio stream.

==== attributes ====

 '''local_rtp_address'''::

  The IP address to use for the RTP endpoint.

 '''use_srtp'''::

  A boolean indicating whether SRTP should be used.

 '''srtp_forced'''::

  A boolean indicating whether SRTP should be mandatory, if SRTP is to be used.

 '''use_ice'''::

  A boolean indicating whether ICE should be used.

 '''ice_stun_address'''::

  The IP adress of the STUN server that should be contacted to retrieve an ICE candidate.

  This attribute is only relevant if ICE is used.

  If this is the case and this attribute is set to {{{None}}}, no STUN candidate shall be retrieved for ICE.

 '''ice_stun_port''::

  The port of the STUN server to be used for retrieving an ICE candidate.

  The same condition apply to this attribute as for {{{ice_stun_address}}}.

==== methods ====

  This creates a new {{{RTPConfiguration}}} object with sensible defaults, setting all the attributes to the specified values.

  The default value for the {{{local_rtp_address}}} attribute is the default outbound IP of this host, detected at application start.

=== MSRPConfiguration ===

A {{{sipsimple.session.MSRPConfiguration}}} object governs the parameters used for creating an MSRP connection when establishing a chat within a session.

==== attributes ====

 '''local_ip'''::

  The local IP address to put in the MSRP URI.

  If this is set to None, an IP will be automatically detected.

 '''local_port'''::

  The local port to use for MSRP.

  If this is set to None, an a port will be automatically allocated.

 '''local_use_tls'''::

  This creates a new {{{MSRPConfiguration}}} object with sensible defaults, setting all the attributes to the specified values.

=== 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 {{{SCSessionChangedState}}} 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 ====

==== examples ====

As an example of how to use the {{{Session}}} object, the following provides a very basic Python program that places an outbound call:

{{{

from threading import Event

from zope.interface import implements

from application.notification import IObserver, NotificationCenter

from sipsimple import *

class SimpleOutboundCall(object):

    # indicate that we implement the application.notification.IObserver interface

    implements(IObserver)

    def __init__(self, local_uri, password, remote_uri, route):

        # setup a threading.Event to signal that the Engine has stopped

        self.engine_ended_event = Event()

        # start the Engine with default parameters

        Engine().start()

        # Set up an outbound ringtone on the session manager

== Notifications ==

The notifications bus is implemented using [http://pypi.python.org/pypi/python-application/ python-application] notifications system.

Each software component that needs to communicate with the rest of the system can subscribe to or publish messages. The format of a message on the notification bus is ABClassNameVerbNoun. Attached to each message data can be appended, the data need to be understood by an interested observer. The messages exchanged on the notifications bus and their context are described below.
