Subject: Publish-Subscribe (JEP-0060) code for simple use cases
For a project I'm currently on I fiddled around with the Publish-Subscribe extension for Jabber (http://www.jabber.org/jeps/jep-0060.html). I wrote some code to cover the most basic use cases:

  • subscribing to an existing node
  • creating a new node on the server
  • publishing something to a node
  • requesting information about a node
  • requesting the default node configuration
  • requesting information about all affiliations of the user
  • requesting all items of a node


The code is a bit rough around the edges as I was just prototyping but it does the job. There's a factory which even hides the complexity of putting DOM elements together. The following code demonstrates how to create, subscribe and publish to a node whereas the xmppClientConnection variable is a placeholder for an XmppClientConnection instance:

  1. xmppClientConnection.Send(PubsubElementFactory psubElementFactory = new PubsubElementFactory("pubsub.jabber.org", xmppClientConnection.MyJID));
  2. string testNodeName = "TestNode";
  3. xmppClientConnection.Send(psubElementFactory.CreateNode(testNodeName));
  4. xmppClientConnection.Send(psubElementFactory.Subscribe(testNodeName));
  5.  
  6. Element payload = new Element("myPubSubSuperTag");
  7. xmppClientConnection.Send(psubElementFactory.Publish(testNodeName, payload));

If anybody is interested in the code just drop me a message!

By the way, I used the  Wildfire Jabber Server and a snapshot of Idavoll2 as JEP-0060 component.

Is there any documentation available on how to run a jabber server with pubsub support?
I've started to write my own pubsub service what in turn supports only those feature I require.
Running a server with full pubsub support would help a lot.

Hello,

the eJabberd server includes a pubsub component. For all other servers you could use the idavoll component.
Jive and Coversant are both working hard on pubsub. So this servers will include a pubsub component with one of the next releases too.

Hello,

checkout the latest code from SVN, there is full PubSub support and a PubSubManager class which lets you subscribe to a node with a single line of code.
