XMPP概述

XMPP是一套通信协议。分为两部分,XMPP Core Services 和 XMPP Extension Protocols. 核心由基础feature组成,扩展协议就非常丰富,而且一直在发展。Wiki上有张各种IM协议的汇总表,推荐!

XMPP Addressing

这是一张Client-Server的图,图里的server、client都遵循XMPP协议。叫 XMPP entity. 它们有各自唯一的Address, 格式如'[email protected]', 叫 JID (Jaber ID)
RFC 7622 - Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol (XMPP): Address Format

其中resource是拿来做同一账号多客户端标记的, 比如图中User1 从 pc ,phone1 和 phone2登录同一账号,resource分别是 pc, iphone1,iphone2

XMPP Client- Server Streams

客户端与服务端通过长链接方式通信,现在多用WebSocket。当客户端跟服务端握手成功,它们开始用 XML stream通信。

XML stream 总是以 开头, tag结尾。是xml消息的容器。

An XML stream is a container for the exchange of XML elements between any two entities over a network. 
During the life of the stream, the entity that initiated it can send an unbounded number of XML elements over the stream, either elements used to negotiate the stream (e.g., to complete TLS negotiation or SASL negotiation) or XML stanzas.

XML stanza

An XML stanza is the basic unit of meaning in XMPP. A stanza is a first-level element (at depth=1 of the stream) whose element name is "message", "presence", or "iq" and whose qualifying namespace is 'jabber:client' or 'jabber:server'.

XMPP Communication Primitives

A stanza is the smallest piece of XML data a client can send to a server ( server send to client) in one package.

xmpp中,服务端、客户数据交换时,最小XML数据单位 叫 stanza。如上图,绿色的就是一个stanza,黑色的也是一个stanza。Stanza有几种类型: message, iq, presence

The Message Stanza

The stanza is meant to be used to send data between XMPP entities.

  • from:发送方
  • to: 接收方
  • body: 消息内容
  • type 有几种类型:
    - ( chat message stanza)
    • < message type=”groupchat”/> ( groupchat message stanza)
    • < message type=”error”/> (error message stanza)

The Presence Stanza

用来表示在线状态的

show 标签里可能会有的几种状态:
chat : online and available for chat ;
away : 暂时离开
xa : 长时间离开
dnd: 请勿打扰

如果你想知道别的状态,需要先发消息给Server,subscribe别人。

The IQ stanza

The IQ( Info/Query) stanza is used to get some information from the server ( info about the server or its registered clients) or to apply some settings to the server.

用来获取消息,或者请求设置

Type属性中的类型 :get ,set ,result or error.

  • < iq type=”get”/> stanzas are used to get(ask) some information ( from the server).
  • stanzas are used to apply some settings to the server.When you send get/set IQ stanzas to the server ,
  • it can reply either with an < iq type=”result”/> stanza when your request has been successfully processed by the server or
  • stanza when something has gone wrong with your request.The figure below shows an IQ stanza that we send to the server and the reply we get from the server.

The client sends an IQ get stanza to the server to request its contact list.We know it is asking for the contact list because of the jabber:iq:roster XML namespace.

The XMPP engine in the server is programmed to know that when a client sends jabber:iq:roster namespaced IQ ,it wants to retrieve its contact list.There are other namespaces in XMPP for other uses and you will surely come accross them in your XMPPing journey.

The server responds with a list of the JID’s contacts wraped within a jabber:iq:roster namespaced tag.

本地搭建 Server

我搭的是ejabberd. 官方安装教程: Installing ejabberd | ejabberd Docs

启动服务

cd /Applications/ejabberd-19.02
//开启服务
./bin/ejabberdctl start  
//状态
./bin/ejabberdctl status  

// help 查看更多功能哦
./bin/ejabberdctl help 

注册账户

打开 admin 页面, 虚拟主机 -> localhost(可能你的名字不一样) -> 用户。 现在你可以自己创建账户了。

客户端玩起来

客户端有很多选择,不过大多数都是渣。如果是WebSocket,用这个 GitHub - processone/xmpp-websocket-client: Test XMPP Websocket client 调试可以看到stanza,挺方便的。

如果Mac用户报auth问题,可以打开vim conf/ejabberd.yml, tls配置成false

关于JS库

打算用React Native写IM app,lib选了 GitHub - xmppjs/xmpp.js: XMPP for JavaScript 。当然 Web多用框架 Strophe.js。这儿有个简单比较How do you compare to strophe.js · Issue #217 · xmppjs/xmpp.js · GitHub
