# Custom Stanza example
This module show how to implement a custom extension for your own client, without having to modify or fork Fluux XMPP.
It help integrating your custom extension in the standard stream parsing, marshalling and unmarshalling workflow.

Extensions are registered on launch using the `Registry`. It can be used to register you own custom payload. You may
want to do so to support extensions we did not yet implement, or to add your own custom extensions to your XMPP stanzas.
To create an extension you need:
1. to create a struct for that extension. It need to have XMLName for consistency and to tagged at the struct level with
`xml` info.
2. It need to implement one or several extensions interface: stanza.IQPayload, stanza.MsgExtension and / or
stanza.PresExtension
3. Add that custom extension to the stanza.TypeRegistry during the file init.
Here an example code showing how to create a custom IQPayload.
```go
package myclient
import (
"encoding/xml"
"gosrc.io/xmpp/stanza"
)
type CustomPayload struct {
XMLName xml.Name `xml:"my:custom:payload query"`
Node string `xml:"node,attr,omitempty"`
}
func (c CustomPayload) Namespace() string {
return c.XMLName.Space
}
func init() {
stanza.TypeRegistry.MapExtension(stanza.PKTIQ, xml.Name{"my:custom:payload", "query"}, CustomPayload{})
}
```
