PeerTube plugin livechat

This plugin is meant to provide web chat for Peertube videos.

The plugin has to rely on an external tool as web chat backend. There are multiple ways to provide such functionality:

  • Prosody server controlled by Peertube (recommended): this plugin can launch a Prosody process and auto-configure it. Documentation. This is the recommanded setup, and is almost automatic to setup.
  • Connect to an existing XMPP server with ConverseJS: you can use an external Jabber/XMPP server. This server has to provide BOSH or Websocket API, accept anonymous loggin, and accept room creation. Documentation
  • Use an external web chat tool: you can use any external web chat tool, that can be included in an iframe. Documentation

For the two first solutions, the connection to the XMPP server is made with the converseJS Javascript library. XMPP is a protocol for chat applications. It is sometime known has Jabber.

If you have new feature requests, bugs, or difficulties to setup the plugin, you can use the Github issue tracker.

Here is a roadmap for upcoming features: roadmap.

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

If you have any question, or if you want to talk about this plugin, you can join this XMPP room with any Jabber client: plugin-livechat-support@room.im.yiny.org.
