Package Exports

stanza.io
stanza.io/lib/client
stanza.io/lib/plugins/index-browser.js
stanza.io/lib/plugins/index.js

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (stanza.io) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

Stanza.io

Modern XMPP in the browser, with a JSON API.

What is this?

Stanza.io is a library for using modern XMPP in the browser, and it does that by exposing everything as JSON. Unless you insist, you have no need to ever see or touch any XML when using stanza.io.

Important Protocol Changes

Starting with v4.0.0, stanza.io is using the protocol specified in the latest XMPP over WebSocket draft by default, which contains backwards incompatible changes.

Servers have started switching to using the latest protocol; notably, Prosody's WebSocket module for prosody-0.10. If your server has not yet been upgraded, you can set transports to ['old-websocket'] in the config:

var oldws = XMPP.createClient({
    ...
    transports: ['old-websocket']
});

Installing

$ npm install stanza.io

Building bundled/minified version (for AMD, etc)

$ grunt

The bundled and minified files will be in the generated build directory.

Getting Started

Find or install a server which supports XMPP over WebSocket (Prosody recommended).
Run grunt to build build/stanzaio.bundle.js
Open demo.html in your browser
Enter your connection info, click connect.
Use the JS console to play with the XMPP client (var client).

If you want to see stanza.io in action in a full-featured client, take a look at Otalk.im (and its source).

Echo Client Demo

var XMPP = require('stanza.io'); // if using browserify

var client = XMPP.createClient({
    jid: 'echobot@example.com',
    password: 'hunter2'
});

client.on('session:started', function () {
    client.getRoster();
    client.sendPresence();
});

client.on('chat', function (msg) {
    client.sendMessage({
      to: msg.from,
      body: 'You sent: ' + msg.body
    });
});

client.connect();
