+Stanza Objects
+==============
+
+.. module:: sleekxmpp.xmlstream.stanzabase
+
+The :mod:`~sleekmxpp.xmlstream.stanzabase` module provides a wrapper for the
+standard :mod:`~xml.etree.ElementTree` module that makes working with XML
+less painful. Instead of having to manually move up and down an element
+tree and insert subelements and attributes, you can interact with an object
+that behaves like a normal dictionary or JSON object, which silently maps
+keys to XML attributes and elements behind the scenes.
+
+Overview
+--------
+
+The usefulness of this layer grows as the XML you have to work with
+becomes nested. The base unit here, :class:`ElementBase`, can map to a
+single XML element, or several depending on how advanced of a mapping
+is desired from interface keys to XML structures. For example, a single
+:class:`ElementBase` derived class could easily describe:
+
+.. code-block:: xml
+
+ <message to="user@example.com" from="friend@example.com">
+ <body>Hi!</body>
+ <x:extra>
+ <x:item>Custom item 1</x:item>
+ <x:item>Custom item 2</x:item>
+ <x:item>Custom item 3</x:item>
+ </x:extra>
+ </message>
+
+If that chunk of XML were put in the :class:`ElementBase` instance
+``msg``, we could extract the data from the XML using::
+
+ >>> msg['extra']
+ ['Custom item 1', 'Custom item 2', 'Custom item 3']
+
+Provided we set up the handler for the ``'extra'`` interface to load the
+``<x:item>`` element content into a list.
+
+The key concept is that given an XML structure that will be repeatedly
+used, we can define a set of :term:`interfaces` which when we read from,
+write to, or delete, will automatically manipulate the underlying XML
+as needed. In addition, some of these interfaces may in turn reference
+child objects which expose interfaces for particularly complex child
+elements of the original XML chunk.
+
+.. seealso::
+ :ref:`create-stanza-interfaces`.
+
+Because the :mod:`~sleekxmpp.xmlstream.stanzabase` module was developed
+as part of an `XMPP <http://xmpp.org>`_ library, these chunks of XML are
+referred to as :term:`stanzas <stanza>`, and in SleekXMPP we refer to a
+subclass of :class:`ElementBase` which defines the interfaces needed for
+interacting with a given :term:`stanza` a :term:`stanza object`.
+
+To make dealing with more complicated and nested :term:`stanzas <stanza>`
+or XML chunks easier, :term:`stanza objects <stanza object>` can be
+composed in two ways: as iterable child objects or as plugins. Iterable
+child stanzas, or :term:`substanzas`, are accessible through a special
+``'substanzas'`` interface. This option is useful for stanzas which
+may contain more than one of the same kind of element. When there is
+only one child element, the plugin method is more useful. For plugins,
+a parent stanza object delegates one of its XML child elements to the
+plugin stanza object. Here is an example:
+
+.. code-block:: xml
+
+ <iq type="result">
+ <query xmlns="http://jabber.org/protocol/disco#info">
+ <identity category="client" type="bot" name="SleekXMPP Bot" />
+ </query>
+ </iq>
+
+We can can arrange this stanza into two objects: an outer, wrapper object for
+dealing with the ``<iq />`` element and its attributes, and a plugin object to
+control the ``<query />`` payload element. If we give the plugin object the
+name ``'disco_info'`` (using its :attr:`ElementBase.plugin_attrib` value), then
+we can access the plugin as so::
+
+ >>> iq['disco_info']
+ '<query xmlns="http://jabber.org/protocol/disco#info">
+ <identity category="client" type="bot" name="SleekXMPP Bot" />
+ </query>'
+
+We can then drill down through the plugin object's interfaces as desired::
+
+ >>> iq['disco_info']['identities']
+ [('client', 'bot', 'SleekXMPP Bot')]
+
+Plugins may also add new interfaces to the parent stanza object as if they
+had been defined by the parent directly, and can also override the behaviour
+of an interface defined by the parent.
+
+.. seealso::

+
+XML Serialization
+=================
+
+Since the XML layer of SleekXMPP is based on :mod:`~xml.etree.ElementTree`,
+why not just use the built-in :func:`~xml.etree.ElementTree.tostring`
+method? The answer is that using that method produces ugly results when
+using namespaces. The :func:`tostring()` method used here intelligently
+hides namespaces when able and does not introduce excessive namespace
+prefixes::
+
+ >>> from sleekxmpp.xmlstream.tostring import tostring
+ >>> from xml.etree import cElementTree as ET
+ >>> xml = ET.fromstring('<foo xmlns="bar"><baz /></foo>')
+ >>> ET.tostring(xml)
+ '<ns0:foo xmlns:ns0="bar"><ns0:baz /></foo>'
+ >>> tostring(xml)
+ '<foo xmlns="bar"><baz /></foo>'
+
+As a side effect of this namespace hiding, using :func:`tostring()` may
+produce unexpected results depending on how the :func:`tostring()` method
+is invoked. For example, when sending XML on the wire, the main XMPP
+stanzas with their namespace of ``jabber:client`` will not include the
+namespace because that is already declared by the stream header. But, if
+you create a :class:`~sleekxmpp.stanza.message.Message` instance and dump
+it to the terminal, the ``jabber:client`` namespace will appear.
+

+
+Escaping Special Characters
+---------------------------
+
+In order to prevent errors when sending arbitrary text as the textual
+content of an XML element, certain characters must be escaped. These
+are: ``&``, ``<``, ``>``, ``"``, and ``'``. The default escaping
+mechanism is to replace those characters with their equivalent escape
+entities: ``&amp;``, ``&lt;``, ``&gt;``, ``&apos;``, and ``&quot;``.
+
+In the future, the use of CDATA sections may be allowed to reduce the
+size of escaped text or for when other XMPP processing agents do not
+undertand these entities.
