A backend messaging server for Zope2.
Project description
Introduction
babble.server is a messaging service for Zope2 based systems.
It’s the chat server for babble.client, an instant messaging client for Plone, but it doesn’t have any dependencies on Plone or babble.client and is designed to be usable as a backend, independent of any frontend.
Features:
User accounts: users must be registered for the chat service
Security: most messaging actions requires the user to authenticate
User status support: users can set their status, such as ‘busy’, ‘chatty’ or ‘invisible’.
Web service: all public API methods return JSON strings.
100% test coverage.
Additional info:
