Converse is a JavaScript XMPP client that can be run in a web browser. Unfortunately, it does not support the XMPP extension (XEP) that allows to verify HTTP Requests via XMPP (XMPP): XEP-0070. So I decided to code a small plugin to provide this functionality.
This article follow up the article about Authentication without password using XMPP on a Django website previously presented here. This article introduced the XMPP extension (XEP-0070) which allows one to connect on a website with his XMPP account, without additional password.
Unfortunately, the XEP-0070 is not widely used but this article aims to present you my little contribution to change this situation.
Errol is a file sender that rely on inotify. It can be used to watch a directory and automatically transfers the new files (or modified ones) with XMPP.
In the continuity with the previous post about jp, the following article present sat_pubsub, a XMPP Publish-Subscribe (Pubsub) Service Component, build for the need of the « Salut à Toi » project.
Salut à toi (SàT) is a unique XMPP client. As its official description says, it's a "multipurpose, multi front-end, free (libre) and decentralized communication tool". It has been actively developed by Jérôme Poisson (Goffi) and Adrien Cossa (Souliane) since 2008.
sat_pubsub allows us to use our own up-to-date persistent pubsub service.
Salut à toi is a unique XMPP client. As its official description says, it's a "multipurpose, multi front-end, free (libre) and decentralized communication tool". It has been actively developed by Jérôme Poisson (Goffi) and Adrien Cossa (Souliane) since 2008. Today, I will focus on the use of "JP", a command-line interface. It can be used to send or receive files directly from a shell, pipe commands to or from XMPP, use XMPP easily in a script and of course play with pubsub nodes.
This article describes the authentication with XMPP on a Django powered website. When you authenticate on a website, the domain validate your identity before letting you access confidential information. They are several ways perform this validation and the use of passwords is the most popular. Another method is the use of a token generator i.e. a small device that generate a secret passphrase that you copy on a website. Today I will present you another authentication method without password using XMPP.
Chatty server is a XMPP bot programmed to run on a server. It can be used as a dynamic toto list; to provide the travel time by car, foot and public transport between two adresses; to give useful information about the load of the server and to give the status of the server. The status of the account change as a function of the load and memory usage.
