Buddycloud

Edição atual tal como às 11h37min de 19 de julho de 2011

In order to create a testing environment for Buddycloud you can follow each software/library instruction.. read everything.. for me it worked.. to summarize I did:

OS: Ubuntu 11.04 x86

1) Install an XMMP Server.. I tried Prosody (http://prosody.im). I followed their installation instruction and it worked like a charm. See http://prosody.im/doc/install

2) Install Node.js ans Node package manager.. Install any dependencies you should need.. In my case I just installed libssl-dev

sudo apt-get install libssl-dev

Then you can use this script.. create a file, like "node-and-npm_installer.sh", give it +x and run it.

echo 'export PATH=$HOME/local/bin:$PATH' >> ~/.bashrc
. ~/.bashrc
mkdir ~/local
mkdir ~/node-latest-install
cd ~/node-latest-install
curl http://nodejs.org/dist/node-latest.tar.gz | tar xz --strip-components=1
./configure --prefix=~/local
make install # ok, fine, this step probably takes more than 30 seconds...
curl http://npmjs.org/install.sh | sh

3) Configure Prosody Add these lines in /etc/prosody/prosody.cfg.lua (or something like that considering your network/dns configuration)

Component "buddycloud.kalakuta.nes.it"
	component_secret = "123456"

4) Install Couchdb, change in http://localhost:5984/_utils/config.html reduce_limit to false, and create a db

sudo apt-get install couchdb

5) Install Buddycloud channel-server

npm install channel-server

6) Configure Buddycloud channel-server Copy config.js.example in config.js and than change according to your needs.. mine is like this

/**
 * XMPP Component connection
 */
exports.xmpp = { jid: 'buddycloud.kalakuta.nes.it', 
		 password: '123456', 
		 host: 'kalakuta.nes.it',
		 port: 5347
	       };

/**
 * Enable & configure one of the following backends.
 */

// CouchDB backend
exports.modelBackend = 'couchdb';
exports.modelConfig = {
    host: 'kalakuta.nes.it',
    port: 5984,
    database: 'buddycloud',
    poolSize: 4
};

7) Run it

node main.js

8) Test it .. Working on this..
