** Debugging tips
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: debugging-tips
:END:
Useful tips for debugging:

- There is a buffer called ~*fsm-debug*~ that displays all transitions and errors during the event handling.
- There is a =jabber-debug= customization group.
- You can set the [[file:jabber.org::#debug-log-xml][jabber-debug-log-xml]] custom variable to ~t~ to enable the XML debug console.
- The XML console is a buffer called ~*-jabber-console-ACCOUNT-*~ by default. Enable ~jabber-debug-log-xml~ and switch to that buffer to see the incoming and outgoing XML stanzas. See [[file:jabber.org::#xml-console-mode][xml-console-mode]].

** fsm.el - the Finite State Machine library
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: fsm
:END:
fsm.el implements functions to define multiple [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finite-state_machine][finite state machines]] (FSM), their states, and all the events associated to each of them.

The following is a list of the most important functions or macros defined in this library:

- ~(define-state-machine name &key start sleep)~
- ~(define-state fsm-name state-name arglist &body body)~
- ~(define-enter-state fsm-name state-name arglist &body body)~
- ~(define-fsm name &key strat sleep states ...)~
- ~(fsm-send fsm event &optional callback)~
- ~(fsm-call fsm event)~

It is required a name and the starting state to define a new FSM. The ~define-state-machine~ creates a new function called ~start-NAME~. Its ~start~ argument is a function argument and body definition used by the created function. The result of the new function must be a list ~(STATE STATE-DATA [TIMEOUT])~ which is the starting state of the machine.

See [[file:jabber.org::*jabber-connection][jabber-connection]] section for an example. Its ~:start~ parameter explicitly mentioned, and its value is a list with the arguments ( ~(username server resource ...)~ ), a docstring ( ~"Start a jabber connection."~ ) and the body of the ~start-jabber-connection~ function.

The machine requires states. They are defined with the ~define-state~ function.

** The jabber-connection FSM
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: jabber-connection-fsm
:END:
jabber.el use a finite state machine (FSM) to track the current Jabber connection step. It defines a FSM called [[file:jabber.org::#fsm-connection][jabber-connection]] (or ~jc~ when it is used as parameter in functions) and several states along with their sentinels. The Org-mode tag ~:fsm:~ is used at jabber.org headlines to describe FSM definitions.

*** States
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: states
:END:
The following graph shows the states and their transitions, as of commit [[https://codeberg.org/emacs-jabber/emacs-jabber/commit/dddcccb926f422b03d22a66b60db46f1266eb141][dddcccb926]] (2021-03-20). The nodes represent the states and the arrows are events.

All states have filter and sentinel events that do not change the FSM state. Also, they have a ~:do-disconnect~ event that change the FSM to the ~nil~ state except for the ~connecting~ state.

Some state changes depend on the event and the data received, in this case, the event name has a number added. For instance, ~:stream-start1~, ~:stream-start2~ and ~:stream-start3~ is the same event (~:stream-start~) but triggers different states changes depending on the data received.

** Stanza processing
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: stanza-processing
:END:
The following is a brief summary about the stanza processing.

1. The ~:session-established~ state is reached.
2. The FSM receives the event ~:stanza~ at the ~:session-established~ state.
3. If no error has been found, call ~jabber-process-input~. See [[file:jabber.org::*jabber-process-input][jabber-process-input]] section.
4. Select one of the following variables depending on the type of message received: ~jabber-iq-chain~, ~jabber-presence-chain~ and ~jabber-message-chain~. All of them contains a list of functions that process its type of message.
5. Call all of their functions with the jabber connection and XML data as parameters .
6. Continue in the same state.

2. Optionally, evaluate the following to install additional development tools (requires MELPA to be set up as package source) -
      #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :tangle no
        (mapcar #'package-install
                '(indent-lint package-lint relint nameless))

5. Update the documentation.
   1. Add your name to the [[#contributors][list of contributors]].
   2. Document user-facing changes in [[file:CHANGELOG.org][CHANGELOG.org]] and .
   3. Update the [[file:README.org][user-facing documentation]] (this file).
