I'm about to implement jabber for a new commercial service, and due to a couple of reasons, I will have to base it on the jabberd server. And due to the same reasons, I'm stuck with ver. 1.4 for the time being.
This means that I will have to make all my own extensions. The first and most important service , is virus check on all transmitted files. This is going to be integrated with an email based service, so I will have to convert the message to email, send it through virus check and then convert it back to a jabber message. While this isn't the best solution, I 'm comfortable with it , as it gives me som other benefits.
My problem is that the only jabber-smtp gateway is programmed in Perl, a language I don't know and can't use on my server. I will have to use Java (or C .. or Cobol :-) And this brings me to my big issue: where do I find a design document that describe how I make an external component and how I plug it into jabber?
The next service demands that I can filter ALL messages that goes through my server. Any pointers to how ?
A third service is based on a gateway server, but here I can build an protocol handler on the gateway and have it talk jabber protocol over S2S.
I know this seems like basic knowledge, but I've tried to find the relevant info, and after over one week of reading protocols, code and documentations, I realize that I need help in finding my answers.
