Example from RFC3921:
<iq
from='[email protected]/balcony'
id='bv1bs71f'
type='get'>
<query xmlns='jabber:iq:roster'/>
</iq>
Response from server:
<iq
id='bv1bs71f'
to='[email protected]/chamber'
type='result'>
<query xmlns='jabber:iq:roster' ver='ver7'>
<item jid='[email protected]'/>
<item jid='[email protected]'/>
</query>
</iq>
IQ start − stash current IQ on stream Query start − set IQ query type to xmlns
Each item is parsed as a roster entry.
A roster request for a user that does not exist will return an error as follows:
<iq
id='bv1bs71f'
to='[email protected]/chamber'
type='error'>
<error type='auth'>
<item−not−found
xmlns='urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:xmpp−stanzas'/>
</error>
</iq>
Updates:
An update request is as follows:
<iq
from='[email protected]/balcony'
id='rs1'
type='set'>
<query xmlns='jabber:iq:roster'>
<item jid='[email protected]'/>
</query>
</iq>
Pass "subscription='remove'" as the item attribute to remove rather than adding the contact.
More detailed example:
C: <iq
from='[email protected]/balcony'
id='ph1xaz53'
type='set'>
<query xmlns='jabber:iq:roster'>
<item jid='[email protected]'
name='Nurse'>
<group>Servants</group>
</item>
</query>
</iq>
Server push requests can be sent through as follows:
<iq id='a78b4q6ha463'
to='[email protected]/chamber'
type='set'>
<query xmlns='jabber:iq:roster'>
<item jid='[email protected]'/>
</query>
</iq>
with the client reponse being an empty result:
<iq
from='[email protected]/balcony'
id='a78b4q6ha463'
type='result'/>
Until the client sends the initial roster request, it will not receive any server push information.
Subscribe by sending something like this:
UC: <presence
id='xk3h1v69'
to='[email protected]'
type='subscribe'/>
Requesting a new contact will cause the server to send out
an ask request:
US: <iq id='b89c5r7ib574'
to='[email protected]/foo'
type='set'>
<query xmlns='jabber:iq:roster'>
<item ask='subscribe'
jid='[email protected]'
subscription='none'/>
</query>
</iq>
