Jabber Simple - A PHP Library

Over the weekend I cleaned up, documented, and released a library extension that I used for TwitterSync. I call the library Jabber Simple. It's an extension to the amazing PHP Jabber code by Centova Technologies Inc. (http://www.centova.com).

Jabber Simple offers just a few improvements:

• Automatically connecting and authenticating to the Jabber server of your choice
• Automatically discovering the event handler methods
• The potential for cleaner shorter code

I built the TwitterSync Jabber Bot (at first) based on the example Jabber Bot code for the Jabber class, but I felt like there must be an easier way to write a simple Jabber Bot…

So I wrote Jabber Simple in order to make creating a simple Jabber bot with the Jabber class a bit easier. IMHO, the example Jabber Bot via JabberSimple seems a bit easier to read, understand, and extend.

Well, that's it. I don't have much more to say. I'm happy with my library and if nobody else finds it useful, that's ok¹!

You can find the JabberSimple library at Google Code
