Web-based XMPP client (self-hosted and free/libre)

Question

Next to a server, I also want to host an XMPP client.

Client features

It must support the basic features:

• Show my roster and the presence information of my contacts.
• Allow receiving and sending text messages.

And it should support:

• Allow setting my status and client priority.

Administration features

• It should offer some kind of logging (failed login attempts, errors, …).
• It should be possible to restrict usage with a whitelist per host and JID, e.g.:
  1. allow login from everyone on @example.com, and
  2. allow login from [email protected].

A web interface is not required, I’m fine with configuring it via SSH.

Formal requirements

• Must be FLOSS.
• Must be a self-hosted web app.
• Must run natively on a GNU/Linux server.

Answer 1

You can have a look at Libervia, which is the web interface of Salut à Toi.

I think it's pretty much what you are looking for. It's AGPL v3+, very actively developed, and has "social" features like (micro)blogging. I'm working on it, and you can ask us if you need a feature.

There are also Jappix and Movim which are other XMPP/Web projects.

Answer 2

SparkWeb:

SparkWeb is an Open Source, web-based IM client optimized for businesses and organizations. It features built-in support for group chat and strong security. It also offers a great end-user experience with features like group chat room bookmarks, and tabbed conversations.
