<section1 topic='Introduction' anchor='intro'>
<p>It is sometimes useful, while reading some conversations, to be
reminded about it at some point in the future. This specification
proposes a mechanism to allow clients to set up such reminders.</p>

<dt>Reminder</dt>
<dd>
An automatically generated message addressed to an entity sent
at a given time. Its goal is to remind the creating entity
about something.

</section1>
<section1 topic='Requirements' anchor='requirements'>
<p>This protocol requires handling of dates and times, as such it conforms to &xep0082;.</p>
</section1>
<section1 topic='Discovering support' anchor='disco'>
<p>An entity may wish to discover if a service supports the Reminders feature; in order to do so, it sends a service discovery information query to the server..</p>
<example caption='Client requests information about a server'><![CDATA[
<iq from='juliet@capulet.net/balcony'
id='disco1'
to='capulet.net'
type='get'>
<query xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/disco#info'/>
</iq>]]></example>
<p>If the server supports the Reminders feature, it MUST specify the
'urn:xmpp:reminders:0' feature in its service discovery information
features as specified in &xep0030;</p>
<example caption='Server advertises support for reminders'><![CDATA[
<iq to='juliet@capulet.net/balcony' id='disco1' from='capulet.net'
type='result'>
<query xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/disco#info'>
<feature var='urn:xmpp:reminders:0'/>
</query>
</iq>]]></example>
</section1>
<section1 topic='Use Cases' anchor='usecases'>
<p>For end users, this provides a way to be reminded about stuff
while being in a conversation, without the need to leave it and go
to some calendar application or similar and create a full event
there. By setting a reminder, a user will be notified by the server
at whatever given time the reminder is created with and with
whatever the description was set for such a reminder.</p>
<section2 topic='Creating a reminder' anchor='creating'>
<p>A user wants to create a new reminder. For creating a
reminder, an entity MUST send an IQ stanza with the 'type'
attribute with a value of "set" and a direct &lt;reminder/&gt;
child qualified by the "urn:xmpp:reminders:0" namespace.</p>
<example caption='User creates a new reminder'><![CDATA[
<iq from='juliet@capulet.net/balcony'
to='capulet.net'
id='abc123'
type='set'>
<reminder xmlns='urn:xmpp:reminders:0'>
<date>2020-02-19T23:41:00Z</date>
<text xml:lang='en'>Please go sleep before it's too late</text>
</reminder>
</iq>]]> </example>
<example caption='Server acknowledges the reminder creation'><![CDATA[
<iq id='abc123'
to='juliet@capulet.net/balcony'
from='capulet.net'
type='result'>
<reminder xmlns='urn:xmpp:reminders:0' id='d414cec2-5369-11ea-9455-8b8d265047d9'>
<date>2020-02-19T23:41:00Z</date>
<text xml:lang='en'>Please go sleep before it's too late</text>
</reminder>
</iq>]]></example>
<p>Whenever the reminder's data sent by a client is not complete or
in an invalid format, the server MUST send an error stanza of type
'modify' and a 'bad-request' condition.</p>
<example caption='Server sends a bad-request error response'><![CDATA[
<iq id='bad1'
to='capulet.net'
from='juliet@capulet.net/balcony'
type='set'>
<reminder xmlns='urn:xmpp:reminders:0'>
<date>Tomorrow at noon</date>
<text xml:lang='en'>Lunch at Romeo's</text>
</reminder>
</iq>
<iq id='bad1'
to='juliet@capulet.net/balcony'
from='capulet.net'
type='error'>
<error type='modify'>
<bad-request xmlns='urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:xmpp-stanzas'/>
</error>
</iq>]]></example>
<p>In the event of a client trying to set a reminder in the
past, the server MUST send an error stanza of type 'modify' and
a 'gone' condition.</p>
<example caption='Server sends a gone error response'><![CDATA[
<iq id='bad2'
to='capulet.net'
from='juliet@capulet.net/balcony'
type='set'>
<reminder xmlns='urn:xmpp:reminders:0'>
<date>2000-01-01T00:00:00Z</date>
<text xml:lang='en'>New Year's party</text>
</reminder>
</iq>
<iq id='bad2'
to='juliet@capulet.net/balcony'
from='capulet.net'
type='error'>
<error type='modify'>
<gone xmlns='urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:xmpp-stanzas'/>
</error>
</iq>]]></example>
</section2>
<section2 topic='Server sends a reminder' anchor='send'>
<p>Whenever the time for a reminder arrives, the server MUST send
a message with the reminder to the creating entity.</p>
<example caption='Server sends a reminder'><![CDATA[
<message from='capulet.net' to='juliet@capulet.net/balcony' id='reminder1'>
<reminder xmlns='urn:xmpp:reminders:0' id='d414cec2-5369-11ea-9455-8b8d265047d9'>
<date timezone='UTC'>2020-02-19T23:41:00Z</date>
<text xml:lang='en'>Please go sleep before it's too late</text>
</reminder>
</message>]]></example>
<p>After sending a reminder, the server MAY choose to delete it
from its storage.</p>
</section2>
<section2 topic='Client cancels a reminder' anchor='cancel'>
<p>There may be the case where a user wants to cancel an already
set reminder. To do so, the client MUST send an IQ stanza of
type 'set' with a 'reminder' child containing the 'id' attribute
of the reminder to be deleted, without any additional child.</p>
<example caption='Client deletes a reminder'><![CDATA[
<iq id='abc2'
from='juliet@capulet.net/balcony'
to='capulet.net'
type='set'>
<reminder xmlns='urn:xmpp:reminders:0' id='d414cec2-5369-11ea-9455-8b8d265047d9'/>
