I tried to use your plugin, but I did not get it work. I have a jabber account at jabber.de. When starting the plugin I get the following Error:
Fehler beim Start des Plugins: XMPP

Can You please help me?
I had the same problem as you, and after a lot of investigations I came up with a fix, that works for me, and I thought I could share it with you and others, here's what you have to do :
you need to edit just a single file, here is my path (yours could be different depending where you usually install your plugins) :
C:\ProgramData\EventGhost\plugins\XMPP\xmpp\
transports.py
open the file and go around line 32, comment this line :
Code: Select all
#import socket,select,base64,dispatcher,sys
and add this line instead :
Code: Select all
import socket,ssl,select,base64,dispatcher,sys
and now, go around line 324, and comment these 3 lines :
Code: Select all
# tcpsock._sslObj = socket.ssl(tcpsock._sock, None, None)
# tcpsock._sslIssuer = tcpsock._sslObj.issuer()
# tcpsock._sslServer = tcpsock._sslObj.server()
and add these 3 lines instead :
Code: Select all
tcpsock._sslObj = ssl.wrap_socket(tcpsock._sock, None, None)
tcpsock._sslIssuer = tcpsock._sslObj.getpeercert().get('issuer')
tcpsock._sslServer = tcpsock._sslObj.getpeercert().get('server')
As you can see, this fix is all about SSL support, no more errors !! it took me days to find this fix and I hope it will work for you too !
Now remains 2 other problems with this plugin, although it works good, it could be perfect, let me explain :
1/ there is no support of variables, for example you can't put {eg.result} in the field where you can send messages, all you can do is put some regular text and that's all. This is a huge limitation and could be fixed rather easily by some folks on this forum (first person that comes to my mind is kg
)
2/ there is no proper auto-reconnection functionality when you're disconnected from the server (either the XMPP server disconnects you for some reason, or when you lose your internet connection), sometimes it reconnects automatically and sometimes it won't... so not very reliable ! and sometimes because of this behavior, EG completely freezes !! only a restart of EG can fix this... The workaround I've found so far, is to disable the XMPP plugin, wait 2 seconds, then re-enable it, not very clean solution, but at least it works
I think there must be some "ping" functionality that needs to be addressed to solve this issue, to tell the remote server that we are "alive", thus do not close the connection ! more information here :
https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0199.html
I was glad to find out that I wasn't the only one having this issue :
viewtopic.php?f=9&t=6797
So for now, I'm using this plugin with those limitations, until some smart guy can improve things with this plugin.
