Known subclasses: twisted.words.im.ircsupport.IRCAccount, twisted.words.im.pbsupport.PBAccount

Base class for Accounts.

I am the start of an implementation of IAccount, I implement isOnline and most of logOn, though you'll need to implement _startLogOn in a subclass.

Inherited from Versioned:

def __init__(self, accountName, autoLogin, username, password, host, port): (source)
def upgrateToVersion2(self): (source)
Undocumented
def __getstate__(self): (source)

Get state, adding a version number to it on its way out.

def isOnline(self): (source)
Undocumented
def logOn(self, chatui): (source)

Log on to this account.

Takes care to not start a connection if a connection is already in progress. You will need to implement _startLogOn for this to work, and it would be a good idea to override _loginFailed too.

Returns (type: Deferred interfaces.IClient)
def getGroup(self, name): (source)

Group factory.

ParametersnameName of the group on this account. (type: string)
def getPerson(self, name): (source)

Person factory.

ParametersnameName of the person on this account. (type: string)
def _startLogOn(self, chatui): (source)

Start the sign on process.

Factored out of logOn.

Returns (type: Deferred interfaces.IClient)
def _cb_logOn(self, client): (source)
Undocumented
def _loginFailed(self, reason): (source)

Errorback for logOn.

Returnsreason, for further processing in the callback chain. (type: Failure)
def _clientLost(self, client, reason): (source)
Undocumented
def __repr__(self): (source)
