PyJabber is a server for Jabber/XMPP entirely written in Python, with minimal reliance on external libraries.
It strives to provide a simple, lightweight, and comprehensible codebase, featuring a modular structure that facilitates extension through the implementation of necessary XEPs for specific use cases.
While initially designed to fulfill the requirements of the multi-agent system SPADE, it can be easily customized to suit any other purpose.

Installation

pip install pyjabber

Quick start

Python program

The process of starting the server returns a coroutine, leaving it to the user to set up the required environment. The simplest approach is to use the asyncio.run function.

from pyjabber import Server

my_server = Server()
asyncio.run(my_server.start())

This allows PyJabber to be treated as a regular task and integrated seamlessly into an asynchronous application.

import asyncio
from pyjabber.server import Server

async def counter():
  while True:
    await asyncio.sleep(1)
    print(f"Hello World")

async def launch():
  my_server = Server()
  await asyncio.gather(my_server.start(), counter())

asyncio.run(launch())

CLI

The CLI launcher provides access to all the configuration options available in the programmatic version (when launched from a Python script).
