IM::Engine::Plugin::State - Keep track of some state for each user

SYNOPSIS

    IM::Engine->new(
        interface => {
            ...
            incoming_callback => sub {
                my $incoming = shift;
                my $user     = $incoming->sender;

                my $last_time = $user->get_state('last_time');
                my $now = time;
                $user->set_state(last_time => $now);

                if ($last_time) {
                    return $incoming->reply("You last IMed me " . ($now - $last_time) . "s ago.");
                }
                else {
                    return $incoming->reply("Hi, IM me again!");
                }
            },
        },
        plugins => ['State::InMemory'],
    )->run;

DESCRIPTION

This module lets you store some state for each user. Right now the only backend is IM::Engine::Plugin::State::InMemory which seriously limits usability. But more will come. I just want something with a useful API that I can continue to build up.
