How to Install JSXC on EndeavourOS Latest

JSXC is an open-source JavaScript XMPP client that enables users to chat with colleagues, friends, and family. In this tutorial, we are going to cover how to install JSXC on EndeavourOS Latest.

Prerequisites

Before installing JSXC, make sure you have the following prerequisites:

A system running EndeavourOS Latest
A user account with sudo privileges
A web browser

Step 1: Install Apache Web Server

JSXC requires a web server to function correctly. In this tutorial, we will install and configure the Apache web server. To do that, follow the steps below:

Launch the terminal by using the shortcut Ctrl + Alt + T.
Update your package lists by running the command:
```
sudo pacman -Syu
```
Install the Apache web server by executing the command:
```
sudo pacman -S apache
```
Start the Apache service and enable it to start automatically on system boot:
```
sudo systemctl start httpd
sudo systemctl enable httpd
```
Verify that Apache web server is running by visiting http://localhost/ in your browser.

Step 2: Install PHP and Required Modules

JSXC is built using PHP, so we need to install PHP and required modules to get it working. To do that, follow the steps below:

Install PHP and required modules by executing the command:

sudo pacman -S php php-apache php-gd php-intl php-xml php-zip php-curl

Restart the Apache server to enable PHP:
```
sudo systemctl restart httpd
```

Step 3: Download and Configure JSXC

Now that we have Apache and PHP installed with the necessary modules, let's download and configure JSXC. To do that, follow the steps below:

Download JSXC from the official website using the wget command:

wget https://github.com/jsxc/jsxc/releases/download/v4.3.0/jsxc-4.3.0.zip

Unzip the downloaded file and move it to the Apache document root directory:
```
unzip jsxc-4.3.0.zip
sudo mv jsxc /srv/http/
```

Set permissions on the JSXC folder:

sudo chmod 775 /srv/http/jsxc/
sudo chown http:http /srv/http/jsxc/

Copy the configuration file to the JSXC folder and set permissions on it:

sudo cp /srv/http/jsxc/config.sample.json /srv/http/jsxc/config.json
sudo chmod 666 /srv/http/jsxc/config.json

Edit the configuration file with your XMPP server details:
```
sudo nano /srv/http/jsxc/config.json
```
Save and close the file by using the Ctrl + X, Y, and Enter keys.

Step 4: Test JSXC

Now that we have set up everything, let's check if JSXC is working correctly. To do that, follow the steps below:

Visit http://localhost/jsxc/ in your browser.
Enter your XMPP account details and click on the "Connect" button.
Start a chat session with any contact on your list to confirm that everything is working.

And that's it! You have successfully installed JSXC on EndeavourOS Latest. You can now start using JSXC to chat with your friends and colleagues.
