|
<p><strong>Converse.js</strong> is an open source webchat client, that
|
|
runs in the browser and can be integrated into any website.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>It's similar to <a href="https://www.facebook.com/sitetour/chat.php" target="_blank">Facebook chat</a>, but also supports multi-user chatrooms.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p><em>Converse.js</em> can connect to any accessible <a href="http://xmpp.org" target="_blank">XMPP/Jabber</a> server, either from a public provider such as <a href="http://jabber.org">jabber.org</a>, or to one you have set up yourself.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>It's possible to enable single-site-login, whereby users already authenticated in your website will also automatically be logged in on the chat server,
|
|
but you will have to pre-authenticate them on your server. You can refer to the <a href="/docs/html/index.html">documentation</a> for more
|
|
info.</p>
|
|
|
|

<h2>Integration into other frameworks</h2>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><h4><a href="http://plone.org" target="_blank">Plone</a></h4>
|
|
<strong><a href="http://github.com/collective/collective.xmpp.chat" target="_blank">collective.xmpp.chat</a></strong>
|
|
is an add-on for Plone that uses <em>Converse.js</em>.
|
|
Together with <a href="http://github.com/collective/collective.xmpp.core" target="_blank">collective.xmpp.core</a>, it provides for single-signon-support (SSO)
|
|
and also enables you to manually or automatically
|
|
register your Plone users onto your XMPP server.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li><h4><a href="http://www.djangoproject.com" target="_blank">Django</a></h4>
|
|
<strong><a href="https://pypi.python.org/pypi/django-conversejs" target="_blank">django-conversejs</a></strong> is an app that makes it easer to integrate <em>Converse.js</em>
|
|
into Django. It adds single-signon-support (SSO) support and a database model to store XMPP credentials.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li><h4><a href="http://roundcube.net" target="_blank">Roundcube</a></h4>
|
|
<strong><a href="https://github.com/priyadi/roundcube-converse.js-xmpp-plugin" target="_blank">roundcube-converse.js-xmpp-plugin</a></strong>
|
|
is a plugin for Roundcube Webmail. It's README states that it's still a work in progress.
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<p>If you have integrated <em>Converse.js</em> into any other CMS or framework,
|
|
<a href="http://opkode.com/contact.html" target="_blank">please let me know</a> and I'll mention it on this page.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2>Demo</h2>
|
|
<p>You can log in with any existing XMPP account. There is also a list of public XMPP providers on <a href="http://xmpp.net" target="_blank">xmpp.net</a>.</p>
|
|
<p><em><strong>Note:</strong> currently the demo doesn't work in Internet Explorer older
|
|
than 10. This is due to lacking support for <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-origin_resource_sharing">CORS</a>,
|
|
a standard which enables cross-domain XmlHttpRequests. There are ways
|
|
around this, but it hasn't been a priority for me to implement them for this demo.
|
|
See <a href="/docs/html/index.html#overcoming-cross-domain-request-restrictions" target="_blank">here</a> for more information.</p></em>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Is it secure?</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Yes, as long as you can trust that the Javascript being downloaded is
|
|
not being tampered with. This page itself is served by Github and is not <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transport_Layer_Security">TLS/TLS</a>
|
|
encrypted (i.e. served via <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTPS">HTTPS</a>).
|
|
I don't know how probable it is that Github served pages could be hacked to
|
|
insert malicious Javascript.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Ideally you'd want your site to be served encrypted via HTTPS.
|
|
In this case, use with caution. You can of course go
|
|
download the source from Github and run this page locally, removing
|
|
the attack vector altogether.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<em>Converse.js</em> itself makes encrypted HTTPS requests to a <em>connection manager</em>, which will make an
|
|
SSL/TLS encrypted connection to an XMPP server (if the server supports it).
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Logging in happens via <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_Authentication_and_Security_Layer">SASL</a>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<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 at your own risk.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<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><em>Converse.js</em> already supports this usecase, but you'll have to do some integration work yourself.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h2>Documentation</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The documentation is included in the source download under the <em>docs</em>
|
|
folder, or <a href="/docs/html/index.html" target="_blank">can be read online</a>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2>Tests</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
We use the <a href="http://pivotal.github.io/jasmine" target="_blank">Jasmine</a> testing framework to write tests.
|
|
Tests can be run in the browser (just open tests.html) or in the
|
|
commandline via ``grunt test``.
|
|
</p>
