Hi Paul,
I remember that back in the summer of 2010 some XWiki developers looked at integrating a XMPP server with XWiki. If I remember correctly, a LDAP server was used for user management and both the XMPP server and the wiki were plugged into it.
We were using an external OpenFire, which used an LDAP auth, the same that XWiki was using. Thus, there were the same users, but not the wiki users but the LDAP ones. Because of that, at least during the hackathon, we didn't manage to automatically log in people to the chat when they were logged in in the wiki, even if they were, actually, the same users (the user had to retype pass).
There was a small chat box popping up in wiki pages as well as a list of connected users from which one could initiate conversations. It was very experimental, worked fine for about 15 users but I have no idea about scaling.
I forgot the name of the js lib we used for UI, there was a little js API for communicating with an XMPP, one I had seen at a fosdem a few years ago. I can dig for that code to check it out if you want. Happy XWiki-ing, Anca
Thanks,
Guillaume

Hello fellow XWiki developers,
I was wondering if anyone had taken the time to have a joint install of XWiki and OpenFire, apparently a fairly scalable XMPP server with nice feature completeness. Something should be done at the UI level, such as candy-chat probably. My question is more about the server side, there seems to be a way to write an adapter to fetch user-information from a database, so that exposing users of XWiki might be simple.
Did anyone try this already? Did it scale?
thanks in advance
paul
