Rabbiter is an ejabberd module providing a bot - rabbiter@rabbiter.DOMAIN, by default - which provides a microblogging service when you add it to your roster. To compile: * get ejabberd sources [1] * get, and install, RabbitMQ - http://www.rabbitmq.com/download - make sure you get the latest repository sources! [2] ** you'll need "rabbitmq-server":http://hg.rabbitmq.com/rabbitmq-server/archive/tip.zip and "rabbitmq-codegen":http://hg.rabbitmq.com/rabbitmq-codegen/archive/tip.zip ** unzip them ** rename the "rabbitmq-codegen-(lots of hex digits)" directory to "rabbitmq-codegen", and similarly for rabbitmq-server ** in the rabbitmq-server directory, type "make" ** symlink the rabbitmq-server so it is available at your lib/erlang directory [3] * get rabbiter sources * symlink mod_rabbiter.erl into ejabberd/src/. * build ejabberd * add a mod_rabbiter stanza to ejabberd.cfg [4]. * start ejabberd If you configured ejabberd to serve DOMAIN, and you didn't supply any special domain for the rabbiter module, you can now add rabbiter@rabbiter.DOMAIN to your roster. It ought to send you a welcome message. If you want rabbiter@someother.domain, change the ejabberd.cfg stanza for rabbiter to {mod_rabbiter, [{host, "someother.domain"}]}.
