Stubbed XMPP (Jabber) Server.
Stabber acts as a stubbed XMPP service for testing purposes, supporting:
- Sending of XMPP stanzas.
- Responding to XMPP stanzas with stubbed responses, by id, and by query namespace
- Verifying that XMPP stanzas were received.
- C API
- Python bindings https://github.com/boothj5/stabber-python
- Java bindings https://github.com/boothj5/stabber-java
- HTTP API
The project is work in progress, and is being developed alongside https://github.com/boothj5/profanity
./bootstrap.sh
./configure
make
make install (as root)
Include the following header in your tests:
#include <stabber.h>Include the following in the linker path when compiling tests:
-lstabber
To start Stabber:
stbbr_start(stbbr_log_t loglevel, int port, int httpport);loglevel - Must be one of STBBR_LOGDEBUG, STBBR_LOGINFO, STBBR_LOGWARN, STBBR_LOGERROR.
port - The port on which to run the stubbed XMPP server.
httpport - The port on which to run the HTTP API, a value of 0 will not run the HTTP daemon.
To stop Stabber:
stbbr_stop();Currently only legacy authentication is supported, to set the password that stabber expects when an account connects:
stbbr_auth_passwd("mypassword");The default if not set is "password".
To make Stabber send an XMPP stanza:
stbbr_send(
"<iq id=\"ping1\" type=\"get\" to=\"stabber@localhost/profanity\" from=\"localhost\">"
"<ping xmlns=\"urn:xmpp:ping\"/>"
"</iq>"
);As well as being able to send an XMPP stanza at any time, you can also respond to a stanza by its id attribute:
stbbr_for_id("msg_21",
"<message id=\"message17\" to=\"stabber@localhost\" from=\"buddy1@localhost/mobile\" type=\"chat\">"
"<body>I'm not real!</body>"
"</message>"
);To respond to an IQ get query (for example a roster request), use the following:
stbbr_for_query("jabber:iq:roster",
"<iq type=\"result\" to=\"stabber@localhost/profanity\">"
"<query xmlns=\"jabber:iq:roster\" ver=\"362\">"
"<item jid=\"buddy1@localhost\" subscription=\"both\" name=\"Buddy1\"/>"
"<item jid=\"buddy2@localhost\" subscription=\"both\" name=\"Buddy2\"/>"
"</query>"
"</iq>"
);Note that no ID is included in the stubbed response, Stabber will use the ID sent in the query. If an ID is supplied, it wil be overwitten by Stabber, again using the ID sent in the query.
To verify that you sent a particular stanza to Stabber:
stbbr_received(
"<message id=\"msg24415\" to=\"buddy1@localhost/mobile\" type=\"chat\">"
"<body>I know, its a test.</body>"
"</message>"
);The above function returns 1 if the stanza has been received, and 0 if it hasn't. The following function check that it was specifically the last stanza received:
stbbr_last_received(
"<message id=\"msg24415\" to=\"buddy1@localhost/mobile\" type=\"chat\">"
"<body>I know, its a test.</body>"
"</message>"
);Both verifications allow for wildcards (*) as attribute values, for example, if you don't know the id's that are generated by your client:
stbbr_received(
"<message id=\"*\" to=\"buddy1@localhost/mobile\" type=\"chat\">"
"<body>I know, its a test.</body>"
"</message>"
);By default the verification calls block for up to 10 seconds, the timeout in seconds can be set with:
stbbr_set_timeout(3);A value of 0 or less is non-blocking and will return immediately.
Sometimes a test needs to wait until the client being tested has had time to send some specific stanzas. The following will block until a stanza with a particular ID has been received by Stabber:
stbbr_wait_for("someid");To start stabber in standalone mode:
stabber -p <port> -h <httpport> -l <loglevel>
<port> - The port on which to run the stubbed XMPP server.
<httpport> - The port on which to run the HTTP API, optional.
<loglevel> - The log level for Stabber, one of DEBUG, INFO, WARN, ERROR. Optional with a default of INFO.
To send a message to a client currently connected to Stabber on port 5230, send a POST request to http://localhost:5231/send with the body containing the stanza to send, e.g.:
curl --data '<message id="mesg10" to="stabber@localhost/profanity" from="buddy1@localhost/laptop" type="chat"><body>Here is a message sent from stabber, using the HTTP api</body></message>' http://localhost:5231/send
To respond to a stanza with a specfic id sent from the client, send a POST request to http://localhost:5231/for?id=<id> where <id> is the the id you wish to respond to, e.g.:
curl --data '<message id="messageid1" to="stabber@localhost/profanity" from="buddy1@localhost/work" type="chat"><body>heres my answer!</body></message>' http://localhost:5231/for?id=prof_msg_1
To respond to a stanza with a specfic query namespace sent from the client, send a POST request to http://localhost:5231/for?query=<xmlns> where <xmlns> is the the query namespace you wish to respond to, e.g.:
curl --data '<iq type="result" to="stabber@localhost/profanity"><query xmlns="jabber:iq:roster" ver="362"><item jid="buddy1@localhost" subscription="both" name="Buddy1"/><item jid="buddy2@localhost" subscription="both" name="Buddy2"/></query></iq>' http://localhost:5231/for?query=jabber:iq:roster
To verify that a stanza was received by Stabber, send a POST request to http://localhost:5231/verify where the body is the expected stanza, e.g.:
curl --data '<iq id="*" type="get"><ping xmlns="urn:xmpp:ping"/></iq>' http://localhost:5231/verify
The request will return immediately with a body containing either true or false.
Stabber logs to:
