How to install JSXC on NetBSD

JSXC is a JavaScript XMPP client that can be integrated into web applications for secure and private real-time communication. In this tutorial, we will go through how to install JSXC on NetBSD.

Prerequisites

Before we begin, please ensure that you have the following:

NetBSD 7.0 or later installed
Root access to the system
A web server with PHP support

Installation

Login to your server as root.
Install the required packages using the pkg_add command:
```
# pkg_add php7-curl php7-json php7-gd
```
Go to the webserver root directory:
```
# cd /var/www/htdocs/
```

Download the latest JSXC release from their website:

# fetch https://github.com/jsxc/jsxc/releases/download/v4.1.0/jsxc-4.1.0.zip

Unzip the file:
```
# unzip jsxc-4.1.0.zip
```
Copy the extracted files to your web server directory:
```
# cp -R jsxc-4.1.0/* /var/www/htdocs/
```
Make sure that the permissions of the files and directories are correct:
```
# chown -R www:www /var/www/htdocs/
# chmod -R 755 /var/www/htdocs/
```

Now JSXC is installed on your NetBSD server. To integrate it with your web application, you need to add the necessary JavaScript code to your web pages.

Configuration

To configure JSXC, edit the config.js file in the js/ directory. The options in this file can be modified to customize the behavior of JSXC.

var config = {
    defaultToolbar: true,
    hiddenMenus: [],
    credentials: {
        jid: '[email protected]',
        password: '123456',
        url: 'https://xmpp-server.example.com/http-bind/'
    },
    otr: {
        enable: true,
        autoEnable: true
    },
    demo: false,
    debug: false,
    priority: 2
};

You need to change the credentials object with your own XMPP server settings.

Conclusion

In this tutorial, you have learned how to install and configure JSXC on NetBSD. JSXC is a powerful XMPP client that is easy to integrate with web applications.
