Slixmpp is an :ref:`MIT licensed <license>` XMPP library for Python 3.7+,

Slixmpp's design goals and philosphy are:

**Low number of dependencies**
    Installing and using Slixmpp should be as simple as possible, without
    having to deal with long dependency chains.

    As part of reducing the number of dependencies, some third party
    modules are included with Slixmpp in the ``thirdparty`` directory.
    Imports from this module first try to import an existing installed
    version before loading the packaged version, when possible.

**Every XEP as a plugin**
    Following Python's "batteries included" approach, the goal is to
    provide support for all currently active XEPs (final and draft). Since
    adding XEP support is done through easy to create plugins, the hope is
    to also provide a solid base for implementing and creating experimental
    XEPs.

**Rewarding to work with**
    As much as possible, Slixmpp should allow things to "just work" using
    sensible defaults and appropriate abstractions. XML can be ugly to work
    with, but it doesn't have to be that way.


Here's your first Slixmpp Bot:
--------------------------------

.. code-block:: python

    import asyncio
    import logging

    from slixmpp import ClientXMPP


    class EchoBot(ClientXMPP):

        def __init__(self, jid, password):
            ClientXMPP.__init__(self, jid, password)

            self.add_event_handler("session_start", self.session_start)
            self.add_event_handler("message", self.message)

            # If you wanted more functionality, here's how to register plugins:
            # self.register_plugin('xep_0030') # Service Discovery
            # self.register_plugin('xep_0199') # XMPP Ping

            # Here's how to access plugins once you've registered them:
            # self['xep_0030'].add_feature('echo_demo')

        def session_start(self, event):
            self.send_presence()
            self.get_roster()

            # Most get_*/set_* methods from plugins use Iq stanzas, which
            # are sent asynchronously. You can almost always provide a
            # callback that will be executed when the reply is received.

        def message(self, msg):
            if msg['type'] in ('chat', 'normal'):
                msg.reply("Thanks for sending\n%(body)s" % msg).send()


    if __name__ == '__main__':
        # Ideally use optparse or argparse to get JID,
        # password, and log level.

        logging.basicConfig(level=logging.DEBUG,
                            format='%(levelname)-8s %(message)s')

        xmpp = EchoBot('somejid@example.com', 'use_getpass')
        xmpp.connect()
        xmpp.process()

SleekXMPP Credits

Slixmpp is a friendly fork of `SleekXMPP <https://github.com/fritzy/SleekXMPP>`_
which goal is to use asyncio instead of threads to handle networking. See
:ref:`differences`. We are crediting SleekXMPP Authors here.

.. note::
    Those people made SleekXMPP, so you should not bother them if
    you have an issue with slixmpp. But it’s still fair to credit
    them for their work.
