Emesene Server Crazy Idea - EServer

[Eibriel]

These are my first ideas for an hilarious project about a Emesene Server, a server to messaging.
I wish to share my ideas whit the community, to get some feedback and leave all these crazy project before be late.

EServer:

Code:

git clone git://github.com/Eibriel/Emsene-Server

EClient

Code:

git clone git://github.com/Eibriel/Emsene-Client

or Ubuntu deb:

http://launchpad.net/~gabriel-inv/+archive/eibriel-emesene2

You can create an Account and add Contacts Here ( http://www.eibriel.com/eserver/ ).

Working:

• Login

Server characteristics:
- Low demand.
- Simple.
- HTTP (may be).
- Based on PHP (for now), and XMLS.

Full description in my website.

Registration example:
The server requests an Username, password and email. The email is verified.

Code:

. The user is submitted to the data base.
. An empty contacts list is created.

If the email direction is a well known messenger (yahoo, msn, google) the server asks to add them to the alias list.
Example:
- Username: eibriel
- Alias01: eibriel@yahoo.com
- Alias02: eibriel@live.com

Examples:
Login request:
http://www.eibriel.com/eserver/connection/?user=test2&request=login

And these are the basics. All else will work on a similar way.

What do you think..?
Questions and comments are welcomed!

ah-ehm, http://xmpp.org/software/servers.shtml

[Eibriel]

Thanks a lot!

I will check the list, to see if someone cover the characteristics of Microsoft protocol...
- Free
- Custom Smiles
- File transfer
- Sound, Video transfer
- Contact list on server
- Contacts groups
- Offline messages
- Nick and Status message like MSN.
- Online games.

Plus:
- Open Source
- Ugly Publicity free.
- Full compatibility whit open source clients.
- Compatibility with other messengers (like jabber, but from Client, not server. I don't know if it is practicable)

At today I don't find some like that...

To read!!

[C10uD]

there're some msn-jabber transports, but i don't know their capabilities

i don't think any of those will support any of the crappy msnp features..

[Eibriel]

I'm happy!!
I was created an own Branch and I'm learning a lot about emesene2. I hope I can help coding soon

About the server, I was named it EServer (E from Eibriel or Emesene, like you like )
the branch is:

git://github.com/Eibriel/emesene.git

Is exactly the same emesene2 plus a Session named EServer. You can test it using User:test1, Pass:test1 or test2, test2. Only allow to login.

Its a hard challenge :S a lot of disadvantages come to light try to made a client-client messenger. Ports issues for example, and is hard to test, I need two internet connections.

But the project advance .. I have made a database of users and contacts all works fine. And I could chat in a local network.

TODO:
- Some chat functionality.
- Frontend to Register.
- Avatars (apparently is not so hard).

Thanks to Mariano and all the people to made this wonderfull and powerfull client!

Enjoy!

[Eibriel]

Sending messages working well (tested only on intranet).
Some issues yet about UI (refresh status).

TODO:
- Groups
- Refresh status, nick, subnick, avatar

mmm quite cool! may be useful in local network.

[Eibriel]

It must work on internet too (is the principal idea). But I could not test yet...  
Two internet connection is needed, or a friend with linux and patience.

But the functionality is the same, I can try a lot of things on lan, and It will work over internet.

Is there the support for HTTP bridge? The most common problem with the internet is that if you use a custom port to provide the service most firewall will block it.

[Eibriel]

Well, I'm working a bit on the server frontend:
http://www.eibriel.com/eserver/

You can create an account here, manage contacts, and set some options. All on very basic level.

Is there the support for HTTP bridge?

I will implement that, but when the server-client will working reasonably well.
At the moment the moment the port 1864 must be open for TCP on both incoming and outgoing connections.

I need some help:
I'm implementing list refresh, but y can only do a Notification, the contact on the list don't change it status:

Code:

Resolved

Thanks!!!!

It's not even in alpha state

It's not even in alpha state

I was asking to me that for weeks! And you on a second take de answer! Saves me the day

No, It's not even in alpha state, may be on minus Alpha or minus Omega, I don't know. I'm just doing this thing.
On the top you can read the limitations,  de TODOS (To do s) and capabilities.

Test the server every so and tell me on which letter is!  
Thanks for test it!
