## Instant Messaging Notifications 1.0.4

| MD5: b2472fbeb47da6731a4873c39057ad0e | azjabber-1.0.4.zip |
### Purpose
This plugin grew out of my frustration with headless Azureus instances, and
never knowing when they were finished downloading torrents. This plugin will
send you an instant message when a torrent starts, finishes, etc…
### Usage
The plugin doesn’t ship configured to work with your IM service out of the box,
obviously, so it won’t do too much until you enter your password and username
into the `Jabber Notifications` plugin page in the Plugins section of the
Azureus configuration dialog.
At that point, you’ll receive the notifications you’d expect from the UI. Note
that not all notifications are fully supported at this time.
#### Security Notice
The password is stored in plain text in the configuration, regrettably — I need
to pass it through to the chat service, and I don’t know any safer way to do that.
At some point I’ll allow the option of storing it in some simple hashed way, or
to enter it on startup.
### Limitations
It currently only supports google talk for notifications.
Not all notifications are implemented.
### Contact
The plugin has a page at [http://www.offlineblog.com/projects/azureus-jabber-plugin](http://www.offlineblog.com/projects/azureus-jabber-plugin)
for comment. Bug reports can be entered here: [OffByOne JIRA](http://offby1.no-ip.org:8080/browse/AZIM)

Hi,
I’m the developer of AzSMRC and I would like to cooperate with you in extending the jabber plugin.
Since AzSMRC allows multiuser it would be cool if AzSMRC could send each user a message.
This could be done via IPC (http://azureuswiki.com/index.php/IPC) please contact me if you are interested.

That’s an interesting concept; I’m not sure how well I could do that, though — The integration with Google Talk is pretty single-user.
Still, I could look into abstracting the communications layer some, and maybe adding subscriptions to the notifications…
What use pattern did you have in mind for this?
January 16th, 2007 at 3:51 pm
Well I thought you could send any jabber user a message via jabber, so I thought about a function that takes the jabber account and the message and sends it to the user.
Well i would like to continue the talk via email, or jabber.

it wont work if you’d like i can post the error report.
January 26th, 2007 at 10:05 pm
I’d need a few details, yeah
define: “won’t work”, first.
Then, if there’s anything in the plugin log (plugins->log views->…)
I’d like that, too.

1) saying this pugin works only with Google Talks is a bit untrue. Google Talks is just a jabber server, and AFAIR is not most secure at login/passwod exchange
Surely plugin works with another jabber servers. Did not tried it with LiveJournal.com though.
2) plugin misdetects staus change and sends tons of spam in the scenario:
a) some private torrent allows only seeding of XX torents max.
b) i set up Azureus Queue to only allow up to XX seedings
c) Azureus in reatime queries tracker for uploaders/leachers ratio and atomatically stops some seeds and starts other.
This time plugin send me tons of “Started downloading”/”Complete downloading, seeding” message pairs.
July 6th, 2008 at 2:58 pm
That’s not technically a bug- it is detecting the state change in the torrent — stop/start seeding — and notifying you of it. However, your usage pattern is one that probably should be addressed.
Hhm.
Submit a bug report, please, and I’ll look into it. It’s something that annoys me too (it happens to me) and that I’ve been too lazy to address, so perhaps this will be the excuse. I’ve added the bug tracker URL to the page above, but here it is for you: http://offby1.no-ip.org:8080/browse/AZIM

I don’t really understand how to use this plugin…I have the fields filled out like so:
Host: talk.google.com
Port: 5222
Name: myemailaddress@gmail.com (is this right?)
User Name: myemailaddress@gmail.com (?)
Resource Name: windows_computer
Password: mypassword
In the log it says:
Unable to perform initial connection to the Jabber service.
XMPPError connecting to talk.google.com:5222.
So I’m guessing one of those fields is wrong.
October 6th, 2008 at 3:06 pm
Google is not full-featured jabber server.
Read many jabber clients FAQs – there are special description how o connect to GTalk, which features to suspend and which to enforce.
For example, jabber server should support multiple connections with different programs/computers into the single login/password. Can you connect to the same GTalk from two computers at the same time ? If you cannot, AzJabber would seems fail too.
October 6th, 2008 at 7:49 pm
azjabber does, however, work with gmail; it’s gmail that I use it for. Colin, here’s the settings that work:
Host: talk.google.com
Port: 5222
Name: gmail.com
User name:
Resource name: anything at all
Password: I can’t tell you that
October 29th, 2008 at 10:07 am
@Colin
In Host configuration Name must be gmail.com and
in client configuration “username” is your gmail username, but you don’t have to put “@gmail.com”, for me these settings work well.

So after a few years. it appears so,ething in Google changed. Anyone else getting this?
