Methods

_markScrolled()

Called when the chat content is scrolled up or down. We want to record when the user has scrolled away from the bottom, so that we don't automatically scroll away from what the user is reading when new messages are received.

Don't call this method directly, instead, call markScrolled, which debounces this method.

computeAffiliationsDelta(exclude_existing, remove_absentees, new_list, old_list) → {array}

Given two lists of objects with 'jid', 'affiliation' and 'reason' properties, return a new list containing those objects that are new, changed or removed (depending on the 'remove_absentees' boolean).

The affiliations for new and changed members stay the same, for removed members, the affiliation is set to 'none'.

The 'reason' property is not taken into account when comparing whether affiliations have been changed.

Parameters:
Name Type Description
exclude_existing boolean

Indicates whether JIDs from the new list which are also in the old list (regardless of affiliation) should be excluded from the delta. One reason to do this would be when you want to add a JID only if it doesn't have any existing affiliation at all.
remove_absentees boolean

Indicates whether JIDs from the old list which are not in the new list should be considered removed and therefore be included in the delta with affiliation set to 'none'.

onAnimationFrame(timestamp, previous_timestamp, frame_delay)

Inner callback for the requestAnimationFrame function.

This method gets wrapped by an arrow function so that the previous_timestamp and frame_delay parameters can also be passed in. The timestamp parameter comes from requestAnimationFrame.

The purpose of this method is to call renderImage with the right delay in order to render the GIF animation.

Note, this method will cause the next upcoming frame to be rendered, not the current one.

This means this.frame_idx will be incremented before calling this.renderImage, so renderImage(0) needs to be called before this method, otherwise the animation will incorrectly start from frame #1 (this is done in initPlayer).

Parameters:
Name Type Description
timestamp DOMHighResTimeStamp

The timestamp as returned by requestAnimationFrame
previous_timestamp DOMHighResTimeStamp

The timestamp from the previous iteration of this method. We need this in order to calculate whether we have waited long enough to show the next frame.
frame_delay Number

The delay (in 1/100th of a second) before the currently being shown frame should be replaced by a new one.

ConnectionOptions

Type:
  • Object
Properties:
Name Type Attributes Description
cookies Cookies <optional>

Allows you to pass in cookies that will be included in HTTP requests. Relevant to both the BOSH and Websocket transports.

The passed in value must be a map of cookie names and string values.

{ "myCookie": { "value": "1234", "domain": ".example.org", "path": "/", "expires": expirationDate } }

Note that cookies can't be set in this way for domains other than the one that's hosting Strophe (i.e. cross-domain). Those cookies need to be set under those domains, for example they can be set server-side by making a XHR call to that domain to ask it to set any necessary cookies.
mechanisms Array.<SASLMechanism> <optional>

Allows you to specify the SASL authentication mechanisms that this instance of Connection (and therefore your XMPP client) will support.

The value must be an array of objects with SASLMechanism prototypes.

If nothing is specified, then the following mechanisms (and their priorities) are registered:

 Mechanism       Priority
 ------------------------
 SCRAM-SHA-512   72
 SCRAM-SHA-384   71
 SCRAM-SHA-256   70
 SCRAM-SHA-1     60
 PLAIN           50
 OAUTHBEARER     40
 X-OAUTH2        30
 ANONYMOUS       20
 EXTERNAL        10
explicitResourceBinding boolean <optional>

If explicitResourceBinding is set to true, then the XMPP client needs to explicitly call Connection.bind once the XMPP server has advertised the urn:ietf:propertys:xml:ns:xmpp-bind feature.

Making this step explicit allows client authors to first finish other stream related tasks, such as setting up an XEP-0198 Stream Management session, before binding the JID resource for this session.
protocol 'ws' | 'wss' <optional>

Note: This option is only relevant to Websocket connections, and not BOSH

If you want to connect to the current host with a WebSocket connection you can tell Strophe to use WebSockets through the "protocol" option. Valid values are ws for WebSocket and wss for Secure WebSocket. So to connect to "wss://CURRENT_HOSTNAME/xmpp-websocket" you would call

 const conn = new Strophe.Connection(
     "/xmpp-websocket/",
     {protocol: "wss"}
 );

Note that relative URLs NOT starting with a "/" will also include the path of the current site.

Also because downgrading security is not permitted by browsers, when using relative URLs both BOSH and WebSocket connections will use their secure variants if the current connection to the site is also secure (https).
worker string <optional>

Note: This option is only relevant to Websocket connections, and not BOSH

Set this option to URL from where the shared worker script should be loaded.

To run the websocket connection inside a shared worker. This allows you to share a single websocket-based connection between multiple Connection instances, for example one per browser tab.

The script to use is the one in src/shared-connection-worker.js.
sync boolean <optional>

Used to control whether BOSH HTTP requests will be made synchronously or not. The default behaviour is asynchronous. If you want to make requests synchronous, make "sync" evaluate to true.

const conn = new Strophe.Connection("/http-bind/", {sync: true});

You can also toggle this on an already established connection.

conn.options.sync = true;
customHeaders Array.<string> <optional>

Used to provide custom HTTP headers to be included in the BOSH HTTP requests.
keepalive boolean <optional>

Used to instruct Strophe to maintain the current BOSH session across interruptions such as webpage reloads.

It will do this by caching the sessions tokens in sessionStorage, and when "restore" is called it will check whether there are cached tokens with which it can resume an existing session.
withCredentials boolean <optional>

Used to indicate wether cookies should be included in HTTP requests (by default they're not). Set this value to true if you are connecting to a BOSH service and for some reason need to send cookies to it. In order for this to work cross-domain, the server must also enable credentials by setting the Access-Control-Allow-Credentials response header to "true". For most usecases however this setting should be false (which is the default). Additionally, when using Access-Control-Allow-Credentials, the Access-Control-Allow-Origin header can't be set to the wildcard "*", but instead must be restricted to actual domains.
contentType string <optional>

Used to change the default Content-Type, which is "text/xml; charset=utf-8". Can be useful to reduce the amount of CORS preflight requests that are sent to the server.

Events

affiliationChanged

Source:
Example
const el = document.querySelector('converse-muc-affiliation-form');
 el.addEventListener('affiliationChanged', () => { ... });

converse-loaded

Once Converse.js has loaded, it'll dispatch a custom event with the name converse-loaded. You can listen for this event in order to be informed as soon as converse.js has been loaded and parsed, which would mean it's safe to call converse.initialize.

Source:
Example
window.addEventListener('converse-loaded', () => converse.initialize());

roleChanged

Source:
Example
const el = document.querySelector('converse-muc-role-form');
 el.addEventListener('roleChanged', () => { ... });
