<p><strong>Converse.js</strong> is an open source, web based, <a href="http://xmpp.org" target="_blank">XMPP/Jabber</a> chat client, similar to
<a href="https://www.facebook.com/sitetour/chat.php" target="_blank">Facebook chat</a>, except for the added support of multi-user chatrooms.</p>
<p>It is a Javascript application that you can include in your
website, thereby providing it with instant messaging functionality.</p>
<p>You will however need access to an XMPP/Jabber server.</p>
<p>You can connect to any public, federated XMPP server, or you could set one up
yourself, thereby maintaining stricter control of the user data (XMPP servers
usually don't archive chat messages).</p>
<h2>Features</h2>
<ul>
<li>Single-user chat</li>
<li>Multi-user chat in chatrooms (<a href="http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0045.html">XEP 45</a>)</li>
<li>vCard support (<a href="http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0054.html">XEP 54</a>)</li>
<li>Service discovery (<a href="http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0030.html">XEP 30</a>)</li>
<li>Contact rosters</li>
<li>Manually or automically subscribe to other contacts</li>
<li>Accept or decline contact requests</li>
<li>Roster item exchange (<a href="http://xmpp.org/extensions/tmp/xep-0144-1.1.html">XEP 144</a>)</li>
<li>Chat statuses (online, busy, away, offline)</li>
<li>Custom status messages</li>
<li>Typing notifications</li>
<li>Third person messages (/me )</li>
<li>Chatroom Topics</li>
</ul>
<h2>CMS Integration</h2>
<p><strong>Converse.js</strong> is available as an add-on for the <a href="http://plone.org" target="_blank">Plone</a> CMS, called <a href="http://github.com/collective/collective.xmpp.chat" target="_blank">collective.xmpp.chat</a>.</p>
<p>If you have integrated Converse.js into any other CMS or framework,
<a href="http://opkode.com/contact" target="_blank">please let me know</a> and I'll mention it on this page.</p>
<h2>Screencasts</h2>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://opkode.com/media/blog/instant-messaging-for-plone-with-javascript-and-xmpp" target="_blank">Screencast 1</a>:
Integrated into a Plone site via <strong>collective.xmpp.chat</strong>.
</li>
<li><a href="http://opkode.com/media/blog/2013/04/02/converse.js-xmpp-instant-messaging-with-javascript" target="_blank">Screencast 2</a>:
A static HTML page with <em>Converse.js</em>. Here we chat to external XMPP accounts on Jabber.org and Gmail.
</li>
</ul>
<h2>Demo</h2>
<p><a href="#" class="chat toggle-online-users">Click this link</a> or click the link on the bottom right corner of this page.</a></p>
<p>You can log in with any existing federated Jabber/XMPP account, or create a new one at any of these providers:
<ul>
<li><a href="http://jabber.org" target="_blank">jabber.org</a></li>
<li><a href="https://jappix.com" target="_blank">jappix.com</a></li>
<li><a href="https://gmail.com" target="_blank">gmail.com</a></li>
</ul>
</p>
<h3>Is it secure?</h3>
<p>Yes. In this demo <strong>Converse.js</strong> makes an
<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_Sockets_Layer" target="_blank">SSL</a> encrypted connection to a secure connection manager.
The connection manager then uses SSL and <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transport_Layer_Security">TLS</a> to connect to an XMPP server.</p>
That said, the developers don't assume any liability for any loss or damages as a result of using this software or demo. Use this demo at your own risk.
<h3>Session support</h3>
<p>
The chat client will disconnect whenever you reload the page. If you
want the user's session to persist across page reloads, you can
establish an authenticated connection on the server side and then attach to
this connection in your browser.
</p>
<p><strong>Converse.js</strong> already supports this usecase, but you'll have to do more manual work yourself.</p>
<h2>Tests</h2>
</p>
We use the <a href="http://pivotal.github.io/jasmine"
target="_blank">Jasmine</a> testing framework to write tests.
The tests can be run in the browser and can be viewed <a href="http://conversejs.org/tests.html" target="_blank">here</a>.
</p>
<h2>Dependencies</h2>
<p><strong>Converse.js</strong> depends on a few third party libraries, including:
<ul>
<li><a href="http://strophe.im/strophejs" target="_blank">strophe.js</a></li>
<li><a href="http://backbonejs.org" target="_blank">backbone.js</a></li>
<li><a href="http://requirejs.org" target="_blank">require.js</a></li>
</ul>
</p>
<h2>Licence</h2>
<p><strong>Converse.js</strong> is released under both the <a href="http://opensource.org/licenses/mit-license.php" target="_blank">MIT</a>
