< p > < strong > Converse.js< / strong > implements an < a href = "http://xmpp.org" target = "_blank" > XMPP< / a > based instant messaging client in the browser.< / p >
< p > It is used by < a href = "http://github.com/collective/collective.xmpp.chat" target = "_blank" > collective.xmpp.chat< / a > , which is a < a href = "http://plone.org" target = "_blank" > Plone< / a > instant messaging add-on.< / p >
2013-04-12 15:59:08 +02:00
< p > The ultimate goal is to enable anyone to add chat functionality to their websites, regardless of the backend.< / p >
< p > This is currently possible, except for adding new contacts, which still makes an XHR call to the (Plone) backend to fetch user info.< / p >

< h2 > Demo< / h2 >
< p >
The code in Converse.js is pretty solid and already used in production
in Plone installations. It's however not yet 100% ready for prime-time
as a standalone client.
< / p >
< p >
Nevertheless, you can try out the current functionality on this page.
< / p >
< p >
< a href = "#" class = "chat toggle-online-users" > Click this link< / a > or
click the link on the bottom right corner.

Besides providing valid credentials for an XMPP/Jabber account, you'll also have to provide
the details of a < a target = "_blank" href = "http://metajack.im/2008/09/08/which-bosh-server-do-you-need" > BOSH Connection Manager< / a > .
I intend to set up a connection manager for people to play with in the
near future, but for the moment I unfortunately can't help you there.
< / p >
< p >
You can create a Jabber/XMPP account at any of these providers:

< / li >

The tests can be run in the browser and can be viewed < a href = "http://conversejs.org/tests.html" target = "_blank" > here< / a > .
