I Just started today to see how we can use apache vysper for XMPP in cloud platforms which doesn't provide pre-defined APIs for XMPP as provided by GAE. I understand that vysper can run as a standalone server and also it can be embedded into the application, would it be a good idea to provide Nuvem APIs to start the embedded XMPP server in a dedicated thread and APIs to register users with the XMPP server? I am trying out vysper now, any suggestions would be helpful. Regards, John I have something that start a Vysper server, let me see if I can post it to my sendbox so you can play with it. Sounds good! I also had some code to start Vysper there [1] (used to unit test Tuscany C++ chat components), if that helps.

XMPP chat component and REST
Hi all, Now that we have a first implementation of an XMPP API and component implementation, how about building even simpler components on top of that, with a REST interface for example? Here are some initial thoughts and usage scenarios: - A sender component, configured with two 'jid' and 'password' properties. To logon as j...@doe.com configure the 'jid' property. To send a message to j...@doe.com, POST the message string to /component-uri/j...@doe.com. - A receiver service component, configured with two 'jid' and 'password' properties and a 'listener' reference. To logon as j...@doe.com configure the 'jid' property. The component receives messages sent to joe and POSTs them to the component wired to 'listener'. - Or a sender-receiver service component that does both? - And perhaps a logger component that logs messages and returns them on a GET? I did something like that before in Tuscany C++ (just a sender and a sender-receiver) and that seemed to work. It shouldn't be too difficult to write Java or Python implementations of a similar REST scheme here, on top of what John has already contributed. Thoughts?
