Create ejabberd user from PHP

Question

I need to create an ejabberd user from a PHP script. I also need to be able to add the new user to a predefined shared roster.

Should I just call ejabberdctl<

Answer 1

If you want a clean and secure way of doing this using PHP within XMPP protocol, I will recommend working with this example script register_user.php. This is an example that can be found inside Jaxl PHP Library.

Download Jaxl library and use as follows:

JAXL $ php examples/register_user.php localhost
Choose a username and password to register with this server
username:test_user
password:test_pass
registration successful
shutting down...
JAXL $
