MUC Implementation

[kylegibbons]

Is joining a MUC implemented in this library?

I looked around and found a few issues mentioning MUC that seem to indicate it is implemented, but I can't find any documentation on how to actually use it.

Could you point me in the right direction? Thanks!

Yeah i had to fiddle a bit too but joining a MUC is simple, once you got the hang of it. Looking into XMPP documentation also helps, see XEP0045.

I did it in the postconnect handler of the streammanger here but you should be able to do it whenever you want, as long as the client is connected

func postConnect(s xmpp.Sender) {
	client, ok := s.(*xmpp.Client)
	if !ok {
		fmt.Println("post connect sender not a client, cannot proceed")
		//error handling 
	}
       
        //I used uuids to make sure the id is unique
	uuid, _ := uuid.NewV4()
	id := uuid.String()

	//prepare presence for joining the MUC
	presence := stanza.NewPresence(stanza.Attrs{
		To:   "<mucroom>@<xmppdomain_supporting_muc>/<muc_nickname>",//fill the fields accordingly
		From: client.Session.BindJid,
		Id:   id,
	})
        
        //as stated in the XEP0045 documentation, you have to tell that you are able to speak muc
	presence.Extensions = append(presence.Extensions, stanza.MucPresence{})

        //send the stuff and actually join the MUC
	err := client.Send(presence)
	if err != nil {
		//err handling
	}
}
