XMPPEngineer is a multiplatform Library for working with XMPP.

Primary LanguageC#OtherNOASSERTION

Introduction

This repository contains an easy-to-use and well-documented .NET assembly for communicating with an XMPP server. It supports basic Instant Messaging and Presence funtionality as well as a variety of XMPP extensions.

Supported XMPP Features

The library fully implements the XMPP Core and XMPP IM specifications and thusly provides the basic XMPP instant messaging (IM) and presence functionality. In addition, the library offers support for most of the optional procotol extensions. More specifically, the following features are supported:

  • SASL Authentication (PLAIN, DIGEST-MD5, and SCRAM-SHA-1)
  • User Avatars
  • SOCKS5 and In-Band File-Transfer
  • In-Band Registration
  • XEP 0198 Stream Management (alpha)
  • User Mood
  • User Tune
  • User Activity
  • Simplified Blocking
  • API designed to be very easy to use
  • Well documented with lots of example code
  • Free to use in commercial and personal projects (MIT License)

Usage & Examples

To use the library add the XMPPEngineer.dll assembly to your project references in Visual Studio. Here's a simple example that initializes a new instance of the XmppClient class and connects to an XMPP server:

using System;
using XMPPEngineer;
using XMPPEngineer.Client;
using XMPPEngineer.Im;

namespace XMPPEngineerTest
{
    class MainClass
    {
        public static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            // basic
            using (XmppClient client = new XmppClient("domain", "user", "password"))
            {
                client.Connect();

                Message message = new Message(new Jid("user@domain"), "Hello, World.");
                client.SendMessage(message);
            }

            // with stream management
            using (XmppClient clientsm = new XmppClient("domain", "user", "password"))
            {
                clientsm.Connect();

                clientsm.StreamManagementEnabled += (sdr, evt) =>
                {
                    Message messagesm = new Message(new Jid("user@domain"), "Hello, World.");
                    clientsm.SendMessage(messagesm);

                    // xep-0033 - multicast can send to a jid that can then route to multiple users
                    System.Collections.Generic.List<Jid> jids = new System.Collections.Generic.List<Jid>();
                    jids.Add(new Jid("admin@domain"));
                    jids.Add(new Jid("test@domain"));
                    jids.Add(new Jid("other@domain"));

                    Message multimessagesm = new Message(new Jid("multicast.domain"), "Test - " + DateTime.Now.ToLongTimeString(), null, jids);
                    clientsm.SendMessage(multimessagesm);
                };

                // enable stream management and recovery mode
                clientsm.EnableStreamManagement();
            }
        }
    }
}
