# PeerTube plugin livechat

This plugin can provide webchat for peertube videos.

There are multiple way to provide such functionality:

* **builtin prosody:** this plugin can launch a [Prosody](https://prosody.im) process and auto-configure it. [Documentation](documentation/prosody.md). Althought this is still experimental and under development, it is the recommanded setup.
* **builtin converseJS:** you can use an external Jabber/XMPP server with BOSH or Websocket and anonymous loggin enabled. [Documentation](documentation/conversejs.md)
* **external tool:** you can use any external webchat tool, that can be included in an iframe. [Documentation](documentation/external.md)

For the two first solutions, the connection to the XMPP server is made with [converseJS](https://conversejs.org/).

If you have new feature requests, bugs, or difficulties to setup the plugin, you can use the [Github issue tracker](https://github.com/JohnXLivingston/peertube-plugin-livechat/issues).

If you are a webdesigner or a ConverseJS/Prosody/XMPP expert, and want to help improve this plugin, you are welcome.
