Converse.js render into a container

问题

Is it possible to configure Converse.js to render it's boxes into custom div containers instead of adding them to the body of the page?

Yes, you can do this by writing a converse.js plugin in which you override the insertIntoPage method of ChatBoxView.

Refer to the plugin documentation I linked to above. In short, it would look something like this:

// The following line registers your plugin.
converse_api.plugins.add('myplugin', {

    overrides: {
        // If you want to override some function or a Backbone model or
        // view defined inside converse, then you do that under this
        // "overrides" namespace.    
        ChatBoxView: {
            insertIntoPage: function (type, status_message, jid) {
                // XXX Your custom code comes here.
                // The standard code looks as follows:
                this.$el.insertAfter(converse.chatboxviews.get("controlbox).$el);
                return this;
            }
        },
    }

UPDATE: Since recent versions of converse.js, the method to override is instead _ensureElement and not insertIntoPage.
