# $Id$ PortSystem 1.0 PortGroup ruby 1.0 ruby.setup jabber4r 0.8.0 gem {} rubygems license BSD maintainers nomaintainer description Library allowing Ruby apps to talk to a Jabber IM system. long_description This library was created to allow a Ruby application to \ connect to (or create a) Jabber account as an additional \ resource. Although it was not the original intent to serve \ as the infrastructure of a complete UI-based IM client... \ it supports everything except the groupchat protocol. \ It currently supports: \ Account registration \ Connection to an account (digest and plain text) \ Access to Roster (buddy list) \ Tracking of presence of resources in the Roster \ (including local account resources) \ Sending and receiving messages \ Managing subscriptions \ XHTML messages \ Pluggable XML Parsers \ What can you do with this? You could write a ruby \ application that allows you to query it by IM for status, \ control, etc. You could use this as a communications \ channel backbone for a Ruby application (which is my \ intent). checksums md5 6670fd5692748ade2dae5540f60825dc platforms darwin
