vCard search via browser??

bbrazell — Wed, 19 Oct 2005 13:53:53 +0000

Many of our clients are using GAIM, and it currently doesn't support searching the jud. As an alternative I was thinking that the jud could be searched through a browser. How tough would this be to do? Has anyone attempted this? If so, any luck?

Using the option host. Replace

{mod_vcard,       []},

with something like this:

{mod_vcard,       [{host, "jud.myserver.com"}]},

How to change the vjud to jud?

OK.. that sounds like a good option. How do I change the vjud.jabber.server.domain to jud.jabber.server.domain? All I see in ejabber.cfg is to allow for another jud to connect to the vjud.

Thanks,

As I said, you can try to change the location of the JUD from vjud.yourserver.domain to jud.yourserver.domain. If even that do not work, your client probably do not support x:data forms (http://www.jabber.org/jeps/jep-0004.html). In that case there are these possible solutions for you:
1) Ask Jabber Inc. for a client with x:data forms support.
2) Change ejabberd code to become compatible with the Jabber Inc. client.
3) Choose another client.
4) Install JUD (http://jabberstudio.org/projects/jud/) as that will probably work with that client. Some drawbacks: as it is not connected to ejabberd user vCard's database, users (or you) need to add themselves manually to the JUD; needs some more work.

PSI 0.9.3....

richmasci — Tue, 08 Feb 2005 02:30:45 +0000

This is in a corporate environment where the commercial jabber client has been installed. We really love the installation of eJabber, and it's been more stable than the commercial jabber we were running. The only issues right now are the JUD and Conf. with the Jabber commercial client. Any help or ideas that don't concern installing a new client?

Thanks,

Rich

Psi 0.9.3 also should work (I tested it), but this also needs discovery. (though it is a little bit easier and you can add a button in the main screen to the discovery dialog to make it more accessible)

JUD Search

richmasci — Mon, 07 Feb 2005 18:12:52 +0000

I've tried making sure vcards are updated, however the client (jabber inc client) still doesn't search the JUD. I've also tried other clients such as the web jwchat, Exodus, psi, gabber, gaim, and I can't get them to search the JUD. TKabber does when you put it into discover, but is that something I want users to connect to?

Thanks,

1) be sure your client suppor

1) be sure your client supports x:data-forms (e.g. new Psi, Coccinella, Tkabber,...)
2) if the client tries to access jud.server and if that isn't configurable in the client, you maybe can try to add the vjud.server on jud.server (see config file): that maybe works in that case.

vjud basic usage

mfoss — Thu, 03 Feb 2005 23:14:50 +0000

Only users that are registered on the JUD will appear on search results. In ejabberd, the user is added automatically to JUD the first time he modifies his vCard.

To search: make sure to place a * at the end of the search term, because otherwise JUD will only give exact matches.

If it still does not work, try with Tkabber to make sure it's not a problem in your current client.
