How to Install JSXC on OpenBSD

In this tutorial, we will be explaining how to install JSXC on OpenBSD. JSXC is a web-based chat client that runs on the client-side; it is compatible with XMPP servers and allows users to communicate with each other in real-time.

Prerequisites

Before beginning the installation process, make sure you have the following prerequisites:

An OpenBSD server running on your computer.
An SSH client installed on your system.

Installation Steps

The first step is to download the JSXC package. You can download the package from the official websiteat https://jsxc.org.
Once you have downloaded the package, extract it to a location of your choice. You can extract it using the following command in your terminal:

tar zxvf jsxc-4.1.0.tar.gz
Next, navigate to the extracted directory using the following command:

cd jsxc-4.1.0
Once you are in the properly extracted directory, run the following command to install the JSXC package:

npm install
After installation, modify the configuration settings in the configuration file that is located under the following path:

src/config.js

You will need to modify the following lines:
```
xmpp: {
   url: 'wss://your-xmpp-server:8443/xmpp-websocket',
   domain: 'example.com',
   resource: 'JSXC'
}
```
Change the url and domain values to match your own XMPP server's configuration.
Once the configuration is set up, build the package using the following command:

npm run build
After building, you should see a dist directory in your project directory. Copy this directory to the location where you want to serve the files for the JSXC client.

cp -R dist /var/www/htdocs/jsxc
Finally, you will need to configure your web server to serve the JSXC files. For example, if you are using Apache, add the following configuration snippet to your httpd.conf file:
```
Alias /jsxc /var/www/htdocs/jsxc
<Directory /var/www/htdocs/jsxc>
   Require all granted
   AllowOverride None
</Directory>
```
This will configure Apache to serve the JSXC files from /var/www/htdocs/jsxc on the http://yourdomain.com/jsxc.

That's it! You have successfully installed and configured JSXC on your OpenBSD server. You can now use JSXC to add a chat interface to your web application.
