Adding instant messaging to a rails application

Rails
1

Hi guys,

I have a membership based application and would like to add a
chat/instant
messaging feature for members to chat amongst each other. I’m thinking
facebook chat where the chats are either chat(when both are online) or
are
delivered to the inbox, when offline or blocked. Any suggestions?

I’m sorry you didn’t get any responses to this. I’ve been trying to get
it
working, too. If you make any progress, please let us know on this list.

For my purposes, it was sufficient to create a once-a-minute polling
loop
to ping the server, but I’d much rather figure out how to do the server
side event.

Yeah! It’s a pretty extensive project apparently! I’m going to see how
far
the client want to go and then work on it.

Set up a jabber service, just like facebook does?

Have you heard about Faye. This is good gem for implementing chat and
notification feature in Ruby on rails. Have a look into it. You can
subscribe and listen to a node using faye.
