Introducing Apache Vysper
Apache Vysper aims to be a fully compliant XMPP Server. It's a sub-project of Apache MINA. Currently its latest release is 0.5 and work is in progress for 0.6 release. It already has an implementation of XEP0045 (Multi User Chat) and XEP0060 (Publish-Subscribe) extensions. Lets see it in action.
Pre-requisite
Download Apache Vysper from http://mina.apache.org/vysper/downloads.html
Vysper can be run in standalone mode as well as in an embedded mode.
Running as Standalone Server
Goto the bin directory and execute
run.sh
Running in an Embedded Mode
Embedding Vysper into your own App is easy. Here is a glimpse
XMPPServer server = new XMPPServer("myembeddedjabber.com");
server.start();
There is still some glue code needed to get the Server function completely. Rather than me duplicating the stuff, please refer http://mina.apache.org/vysper/embed-into-another-application.html
Looks Interesting ! Give Vysper a try and let us know about your experience.
