XMPPFramework - Retrieving Openfire Message Archives

Question

Spent hours trying to solve this problem and I\'m stumped!

Trying to grab the Chat History between 2 users on my OpenFire server and I read that I plugin was needed

Answer 1

When you mention start tag in the request then it matches with the chat having the exact time stamp that's why it returns error code '404' or '500'. I ommited start tag from my request and wrote following code which returns whole chat history with the user.

NSXMLElement *iq1 = [NSXMLElement elementWithName:@"iq"];
[iq1 addAttributeWithName:@"type" stringValue:@"get"];
[iq1 addAttributeWithName:@"id" stringValue:@"pk1"];

NSXMLElement *retrieve = [NSXMLElement elementWithName:@"retrieve" xmlns:@"urn:xmpp:archive"];

[retrieve addAttributeWithName:@"with" stringValue:@"rahul@vishals-mac-pro.local"];
NSXMLElement *set = [NSXMLElement elementWithName:@"set" xmlns:@"http://jabber.org/protocol/rsm"];
NSXMLElement *max = [NSXMLElement elementWithName:@"max" stringValue:@"100"];

[iq1 addChild:retrieve];
[retrieve addChild:set];
[set addChild:max];
[[[self appDelegate] xmppStream] sendElement:iq1]; 

Here this will return whole chat history in XML response between user Rahul and the user currently logged in.
