Module Description

This module implements XEP-0206: XMPP Over BOSH (using XEP-0124: Bidirectional-streams Over Synchronous HTTP (BOSH)), allowing clients to connect to MongooseIM over regular HTTP long-lived connections.

If you want to use BOSH, you must enable it both in the listen section of mongooseim.cfg (Listener Modules) and as a module.

Options

• inactivity (positive integer or infinity, default: 30): Maximum allowed inactivity time for a BOSH connection. Please note that a long-polling request is not considered to be an inactivity.
• max_wait (positive integer or infinity, default: infinity): This is the longest time (in seconds) that the connection manager will wait before responding to any request during the session.
• server_acks (boolean, default: false): Enables/disables acks sent by server.
• backend (atom, default: mnesia): Backend used for storing BOSH session data. mnesia is the only supported value.
• maxpause (positive integer, default: 120): Maximum allowed pause in seconds (e.g. to switch between pages and then resume connection) to request by client-side.
