General Interface is an open source project hosted by the Dojo Foundation

Jabber Support

General Interface Builder includes a Jabber client, allowing you to participate in chats from within Builder. The client is implemented on top of the Dojo XMPP library. It works with Jabber servers that support the Jabber HTTP Bind protocol, such as OpenFire.

An OpenFire server is available for use at http://chat.generalinterface.org. Sign in with your Dojo Foundation account credentials.

The Jabber client in Builder feature supports the following actions:

  • Adding and removing buddies
  • Assigning nicknames to buddies
  • One-to-one conversations
  • Online/away/offline buddy statuses

To configure your Jabber settings, open the IDE Settings window, as described in Customizing the IDE.

When Jabber is configured, you can open the Chat palette from the Palettes menu.
