Facebook... ? #11

zzo · 2011-06-11T01:25:31Z

Howdy - I'm using JSJaC clone'd from git earlier today.
Am trying to add Facebook chat to my website.
I'm using node-xmpp-bosh as the bosh server.
I'm using NodeJS which is proxy'ing requests to node-xmpp-bosh.

So I loaded up your facebook example - I have a 'forever' access token so am not using any of your FB JS stuff - I just return my forever token from the getSession method in the FBConnection class (which is misspelled in the man JSJac class FWIW).

ANYWAYS so when I try to chat JSJaC is POST'ing to my endpoint:

I proxy this over to node-xmpp-bosh running on localhost:5280 & it returns:

Immediately - I don't think it's going to chat.facebook.com:5222.

SO... what am I doing wrong? Granted I have a very tenuous grasp of XMPP+BOSH...

thank you!!
Mark

Ah the XML didn't post here is the request from JSJaC:

and the response from I think node-xmpp-bosh:

Hi!

Sorry but I'm not into this FB Chat thing. I know that you can connect to FB using standard xmpp login methods but I don't know about this token auth. This patch has been added by someone else. So better ask him about things related to this option.

To me it looks like you forgot to set the 'domain' parameter as within the first request you can see the 'to' parameter being set to 'undefined' which is most likely not what you want. Probably it should be set to sth like 'chat.facebook.com' or 'facebook.com'.

Hope this helps, Steve

Hi!
The main problem I see it's that maybe your Node.js is not able to correctly redirect the request to Facebook domain.
I suggest you to test it with JabberHTTPBind running on a Tomcat server. You can find more on this servlet at the following address:

Hope this helps,

Hi,

We are using node-xmpp-bosh on https://bind.jappix.com/ to run https://www.jappix.com/ - Jappix uses JSJaC - and it works well with the Facebook Chat server.

Anyway, I think the "route" attribute (when connecting) have to be removed in JSJaC, since the DNS SRV records replace it. The solution would be not to include it each time, just when a specific host & port is defined.

zzo · 2011-06-11T20:04:14Z

thanks all I'm getting closer:
I specified 'sasl' in the 'authtype' parameter to the JSJaCHttpBindingConnection constructor & then in JSJaCHttpBindingConnection I set this.authtype to oArgs.authtype so the 'sasl' block gets executed when building the request.
So now I'm getting a much bigger chunk back from FB servers (had to tell node-xmpp-bosh to NOT use TLS for chat.facebook.com).
I ALSO had to set:
this.authhost this.host = oArg.host || this.domain;
in JSJaCConnection as that sets the 'to' attribute in the XML......

SO anyways here's a dump of what I'm getting from node-xmpp-bosh:

http://pastebin.com/R2ajhFL3

Something about the authtype it doesn't like - I wanna use the X-FACEBOOK-PLATFORM type...

ghost · 2011-06-11T20:25:04Z

And if you set oArgs.secure = true in the connect function? I had no problem using JSJaC + node-xmpp-bosh + Facebook Chat with this configuration!

zzo · 2011-06-11T20:36:44Z

thanks I just set secure to true & got the same result....

how are you proxying the connection to node-xmpp-bosh from JSJaC? My web page containing the JS is server from another port than 5280 so I gotta proxy JSJaC's connections thru my nodejs-based server over to node-xmpp-bosh...

zzo · 2011-06-11T20:41:05Z

Seems like the problem is around JSJaC sending:

As later on FB responds with:

and then it's done...

raindrop80 · 2011-06-11T20:53:26Z

Hi guys.
Did you saw the Facebook example I developed in the samples folder?
I think that the problems you are having is coming from your xmpp-bosh.
If it can help you I can setup a working online demo to let you show how it works.

Let me know..

ghost · 2011-06-11T20:58:41Z

zzo, we are proxying to https://bind.jappix.com/ for Jappix Mini, and https://www.jappix.com/bind for the full Jappix, so no-cross-domain browsers can work with it.

zzo · 2011-06-12T08:59:51Z

right duh.

OMG I GOT IT WORKING!!! Unclear how it ever worked before actually.

I've forked this with my changes (not very many) here:

https://github.com/zzo/JSJaC

Please review - I'll issued a pull request -thanks!! Mark

The diffs & my comments on the diffs are here:

zzo@49b3432#commitcomment-426575

THANKS!!

zzo · 2011-06-12T09:03:45Z

BTW my changes should NOT effect any other XMPP action - just FB.

I -think- the ONLY line that may effect other XMPP action is this:

this.authhost = this.host = oArg.host || this.domain;

Maybe it should be:
this.host = oArg.host || this.domain;
if (!this.authhost) this.authhost = this.host;

??

in Connection.js ... thanks! Mark

zzo · 2011-06-12T09:07:49Z

So for grins my setup is:

Webpage -> my connect-based NodeJS webserver (which serves the JS & the rest of my app) -> proxied to -> node-xmpp-bosh -> chat.facebook.com - and back.

So my users can magically be on any page on the web & FB chatting - just what everyone always wanted... Crazy thing actually works.

raindrop80 · 2011-06-12T09:22:57Z

That's the main reason why I developed and shared the X-FACEBOOK-PLATFORM auth method.
I already developed four projects using it and they all works really great.

rraptorr · 2013-10-02T10:00:34Z

JSJaC is a client side JavaScript library, it is supposed to be run in a browser and allows one to build IM in a browser. It will not run on your nodejs server and will not allow you to connect your server to Facebook chat.

mirzaarsalan · 2013-10-03T17:40:47Z

Honestly, I have completely no idea what are you trying to do so I cannot help you. If you do have some problems please create a new issue, with detailed description of the problem and sample of the code you are having trouble with.

And please do use smaller amount of question marks, we really can see a single one;)

mirzaarsalan · 2013-10-07T06:12:11Z
