## Tips: install your own XMPP webchat
|
|
|
|
Here are some tips if you want to setup a XMPP server yourself.
|
|
|
|
### Custom ConverseJS webchat
|
|
|
|
If you want to setup your own webchat with converseJS on a different webserver, here is some tips.
|
|
|
|
Once you have a XMPP server that allow anonymous authentication, with bosh
|
|
(or websocket) enabled, you can - for example - setup a html page that looks like
|
|
[this one](./examples/converseJS/index.html). You have of course to
|
|
replace the path /conversejs/dist with your converseJS path, and replace peertube.im.your_domain
|
|
by your actual domain.
|
|
|
|
NB: converseJS has an option «discover_connection_methods» to find your server configuration (bosh, websocket, ...).
|
|
To use it, you have to add a file [/.well-known/host-meta](./examples/converseJS/host-meta).
|
|
Please refer to the converseJS documentation.
|
|
|
|
### XMPP Server: Prosody
|
|
|
|
You can use Prosody for the XMPP backend.
|
|
|
|
You can find an example configuration file [here](./examples/prosody/virtualhost.cfg.lua) or use [this tutorial](./tutorials/prosody.md)
|
|
to setup Prosody from scratch.
|
|
|
|
Replace admin@your_xmpp_provider_domain with Jabber ids of users that you want to be admin for your server and public chatrooms.
|
|
This users have to be on another domain/virtualhost (which don't use anonymous authentication).
|
|
It can even be on another XMPP server. Or you can add a virtualhost on the
|
|
Peertube server's prosody config.
|
|
If you have no XMPP account, remove the line (but you will not be able to moderate rooms).
|
|
|
|
Please refer to the [Prosody documentation](https://prosody.im/doc/) and to [the tutorial](./tutorials/prosody.md) for other modifications
|
|
(how to get the ssl certificates, ...).
|
|
|
|
NB : if you have not nginx on your server, please replace by the correct parameter.
|
|
|
|
### XMPP over HTTP: nginx
|
|
|
|
You can use the reverse proxy nginx to server the Prosody Bosh server.
|
|
So your requests will be on the 443 port, and it will minimise cross domains constraints.
|
|
|
|
There is an example file [here](./examples/nginx/site.conf).
|
|
|
|
NB: this example files also serve the static html files with converseJS.
|
|
|
|
NB: it is recommanded to change ```Access-Control-Allow-Origin``` to something else that ```"*"``` (your peertubes uri).
