Send posts to a XMPP PubSub nodes

[sjehuda]

Greetings!

In XMPP, using PubSub(1) (XEP-0060), it is possible to store posts as Atom Syndication(2) entries into XMPP(3).

There are several XMPP extensions that apply it, namely XEP-0227 (4) and XEP-0472 (5) which make node urn:xmpp:microblog:0 as a common choice to manage news for client accounts (e.g. [email protected]), yet a component account (e.g. pubsub.openrat.de) may use all of its nodes for this purpose.

pubsub.openrat.de/
|
|-- updates/
    |-- Sombre
     `-- Varied
|-- releases/
 `-- events/

pubsub service/
|
|-- node/
    |-- item
     `-- item
|-- node/
 `-- node/

A PHP library that can be utilized would be Moxl of Movim.

I have made a script(7) and a project(8) that realize viewing of PubSub node items as Atom XML feeds over HTTP.

1. XEP-0060: Publish-Subscribe
2. RFC 4287: The Atom Syndication Format
3. Atom Over XMPP
4. XEP-0277: Microblogging over XMPP
5. XEP-0472: Pubsub Social Feed
6. Moxl
7. PubSub Over HTTP
8. Rivista (Browsing PubSub nodes from News Readers and HTML Browsers)
