Generic application to handle https://ejabberd-saas.com/ Remote Data API calls

djabberd

For each specific tasks a handler function must be implemented.

Install

pip install djabberd

Quick start

1. Include the django-ejabberd URLconf in your project urls.py like this::

url(r'', include('djabberd.urls'),

# For Django==1.8
url(r'', include('djabberd.urls'), namespace='djabberd')

2. Setup the handler in your Django settings::

DJABBERD_API_HANDLERS='your.module.path'

Based on ejabberd-saas's documentation those endpoints are required(01-Feb-2016):

1. User management:
   1. Authentication ('/auth')
   2. User exists ('/user')
2. Roster management:
   1. Retrieve user roster ('/roster')
3. Archive:
   1. Store ('/archive')
   2. Get ('/archive')

There must be one function for each endpoint that should be implemented like this:

• user_authentication(username, password):
  • Returns True if authentication is valid
  • Returns False if authentication is not valid
• user_exists(username):
  • Returns True if user exists
  • Returns False if not(or if it is not active)
• retrieve_user_roster(username):
  • Returns the roster in JSON format
  • Returns False if user does not exist
• archive_store(payload)
  • Returns True if message has been stored
  • Returns a string containing an error message if message has not been stored
• archive_get(username[, peer, after, before, limit, chat_type])
  • Returns the message history in JSON format
  • Returns False in any other case

Formats

• retrieve_user_roster:

  {"roster": [
      {"username": "CONTACT",
       "subscription": "both",
       "nick": "NICK"},
       ...
    ]}
  

• archive_store:

  {"username": "USERNAME1",
   "peer": "USERNAME2",
   "xml": "MESSAGE_STANZA",
   "body": "TEXT",
   "timestamp": "TIMESTAMP",
   "direction": "DIRECTION"}
  

• archive_get:

  {"archive": [{"username": "USERNAME1",
                "peer": "USERNAME2",
                "xml": "MESAGE_STANZA",
                "body": "TEXT",
                "timestamp": "TIMESTAMP",
                "direction": "DIRECTION"}, ...]
                "count" : MESSAGES_NUMBER
  }
  

Considerations

Based on ejabberd-saas's documentation:

• If XMPP JID is "userid@xmppdomain", just pass "userid"
• If XMPP JID of USER is "userid@xmppdomain", just pass "xmppdomain"
• If an exception is raised from your handler it would be treated as a server error
• Return HTTP 200 for the successful case
• Return HTTP 401 if authentication fails
• Return HTTP 401 if it's not the successful case
• Return HTTP 500 for server errors, this is the Django's default behavior
