Strophe.js Plugins

Strophe.js is a JavaScript library for speaking XMPP in web applications. It supports extension via a plugin system.

This is a collection of Strophe.js plugins created and maintained by the community. The homepage for this collection is https://github.com/strophe/strophejs-plugins .

How to use

Strophe plugins extend the Strophe.Connection object by calling Strophe.addConnectionPlugin.

This enables us to then access the plugin as an attribute on the connection object.

For example, here the "roster" plugin is used:

var connection = new Strophe.Connection(bosh_service_url);``` connection.roster.get(function () {});```
