3 =================== | |
4 Libervia Components | |
5 =================== | |
6 | |
7 Libervia can act as an XMPP server component, which can be seen as a generic plugin for | |
8 XMPP servers. | |
9 | |
10 This page explains which components are available and how to use them. | |
11 | |
12 Running a component | |
13 =================== | |
14 | |
15 Components are linked to a Libervia profile in the same way as normal clients. | |
16 | |
17 To run a component, you'll need to know its *entry point*, which is the name of the import | |
18 name of plugin managing it. The entry point to use will be specified in the component | |
19 installation documentation. | |
20 | |
21 You'll also have to declare the component on your XMPP server, this is a server dependent | |
22 step and you'll have to check your server documentation for details. You'll have to | |
23 specify a **shared secret** (can also be named simply *password*) that must be set both on | |
24 the XMPP server and as the XMPP password of the Libervia profile. | |
25 | |
26 Here is a list of relevant documentation for most common servers: | |
27 | |
28 ejabberd | |

30 | |
31 MongooseIm | |
32 https://esl.github.io/MongooseDocs/latest/configuration/listen/#xmpp-components-listenservice | |
33 | |
34 OpenFire | |
35 use the web-based admin panel | |
36 | |
37 Prosody | |

39 | |
40 Tigase | |
41 https://docs.tigase.net/tigase-server/stable-snapshot/Administration_Guide/webhelp/externalComponentConfiguration.html | |
42 | |
43 | |
44 On Libervia, setup is done with Libervia CLI's :ref:`profile create <li_profile_create>` | |
45 command. | |
46 | |
47 You'll usually want to have the component to start automatically when the backend | |
48 is started, for this you must unset the profile password (not to be confused with the XMPP | |
49 password which is the one also set on the server configuration) with ``-p ""`` and set | |
50 auto-connection with ``-A``. | |
51 | |
52 You'll specify the XMPP password (also named *shared secret* in `XEP-0144`_ terminology) | |
53 with ``-x <your_shared_secret>`` and the JID to use with ``-j | |
54 <component_subdomain>.<server.tld>``. | |
55 | |
56 The component entry point is specified with ``-C <entry_point>``. | |
57 | |
58 .. _XEP-0144: https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0114.html | |
59 | |
60 example | |
61 ------- | |
62 | |
63 Louise wants to run an ActivityPub gateway on her server ``example.org`` with the JID | |
64 ``ap.example.org``. The shared secret is ``xmpp_rocks`` and she wants the component to | |
65 start automatically with the backend, thus she doesn't set a profile password. The | |
66 entry-point for ActivityPub component is ``ap-gateway``, and she wants to use the same | |
67 name for the profile. To do this, she enters the following command:: | |
68 | |
69 $ li profile create ap-gateway -j ap.example.org -p "" -x xmpp_rocks -C ap-gateway -A | |
70 | |
71 The component will then be started next time Libervia Backend is launched. If Louise | |
72 wants to connect it immediately, she can use:: | |
73 | |
74 $ li profile connect -cp ap-gateway | |
75 | |
76 Available Components | |
77 ==================== | |
78 | |
79 Below is a list of currently available components in Libervia, and instructions on what | |
80 they do and how to use them. | |
81 | |
82 | |
83 File Sharing | |
84 ------------ | |
85 | |
86 **entry_point:** ``file-sharing`` | |
87 | |
88 File Sharing component manage the hosting of user files. Users can upload file there using | |
89 either `Jingle File Transfer`_ or `HTTP File Upload`_. | |
90 | |
91 There is no limit to the size of files which can be uploaded, but administrators can set a | |
92 quota to limit the space that can be used. | |
93 | |
94 Files can be retrieved using `File Information Sharing`_, and deleted using `Ad-Hoc Commands`_. | |
95 | |
96 Files can be shared with a public HTTP link, or made available only to a specified list of | |
97 entities (JIDs). Permissions can be set through Ad-Hoc Commands. | |
98 | |

103 | |
104 Configuration | |
105 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | |
106 | |
107 All options are to be set in ``[component file-sharing]`` section. | |
108 | |
109 ``http_upload_port`` | |
110 port to use for HTTP File Upload | |
111 | |
112 **default**: 8888 | |
113 | |
114 ``http_upload_connection_type`` | |
115 either ``http`` or ``https``. | |
116 | |
117 **default**: ``https`` | |
118 | |
119 Note that HTTP Upload should always be ``https`` to end-user, the ``http`` option is to | |
120 be used only if you use a HTTP server as a proxy, and this server is already set for | |
121 TLS. | |
122 | |
123 ``http_upload_public_facing_url`` | |
124 must be set to the URL that end-user will see. Notably useful if the component is behind | |
125 a proxy. | |
126 | |
127 **default**: ``https://<component host>:<http_upload_port`` | |
128 | |
129 ``quotas_json`` | |
130 a JSON object indicating quotas to use for users. The object can have 3 keys: | |
131 | |
132 ``admins`` | |
133 quotas to use for administrators (i.e. profiles set in ``admins_list``) | |
134 | |
135 ``users`` | |
136 quotas to use for normal users (i.e. non admin profiles) | |
137 | |
138 ``jids`` | |
139 per-jid specific quotas. The value is a JSON object where key is a user bare jid and | |
140 value is a quota. | |
141 | |
142 Quotas can be either ``null`` for unlimited space, or a size value (`SI prefixes and | |
143 binary prefixes`_ can be used). | |
144 | |
145 example:: | |
146 | |
147 quotas_json = { | |
148 "admins": null, | |
149 "users": "50 Mio", | |
150 "jids": {"pierre@example.org": "1 Gio"} | |
151 } | |
