Classic Multi-User chat, as described in XEP-0045, adds an IRC-like functionality to XMPP. It distinguishes between the affiliation list and the occupant list, where the latter is based on presences routed to the room from the client resource. While perfectly sufficient for desktop applications and relatively stable network connection, it does not exactly meet the challenges the mobile world is facing. Modern mobile applications do not rely on presence information, as it can frequently change. The expected user experience not only differs from IRC model, but also uses only a small subset of XEP-0045 features. The service described in this specification attempts to provide a complete solution for all common use cases of mobile groupchats.
The list below contains the high-level features required from a new variant of MUC
An entity often discovers a MUC service by sending a Service Discovery items ("disco#items") request to its own server.
Example 1. Entity Queries the Server for Associated Services
<iq from='hag66@shakespeare.lit/pda' id='h7ns81g' to='shakespeare.lit' type='get'> <query xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/disco#items'/> </iq>
The server then returns the services that are associated with it.
Example 2. Server Returns Disco Items Result
<iq from='shakespeare.lit' id='h7ns81g' to='hag66@shakespeare.lit/pda' type='result'> <query xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/disco#items'> <item jid='muclight.shakespeare.lit' name='MUC Light Service'/> </query> </iq>
An entity may wish to discover if a service implements the Multi-User Chat protocol; in order to do so, it sends a service discovery information ("disco#info") query to the MUC service's JID.
Example 3. Entity Queries Chat Service for MUC Light Support via Disco
<iq from='hag66@shakespeare.lit/pda' id='lx09df27' to='muclight.shakespeare.lit' type='get'> <query xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/disco#info'/> </iq>
The service MUST return its identity and the features it supports.
Example 4. Service Returns Disco Info Result
<iq from='muclight.shakespeare.lit' id='lx09df27' to='hag66@shakespeare.lit/pda' type='result'> <query xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/disco#info'> <identity category='conference' name='Shakespearean Chat Service' type='text'/> <feature var='urn:xmpp:muclight:0'/> </query> </iq>
The service discovery items ("disco#items") protocol enables an entity to query a service for a list of associated items, which in the case of a chat service would consist of the specific chat rooms the entity occupies.
Example 5. Entity Queries Chat Service for Rooms
<iq from='hag66@shakespeare.lit/pda' id='zb8q41f4' to='muclight.shakespeare.lit' type='get'> <query xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/disco#items'/> </iq>
The service MUST return a full list of the rooms the entity occupies. The server SHOULD include room name and version in each item.
Example 6. Service Returns Disco Items Result
<iq from='muclight.shakespeare.lit' id='zb8q41f4' to='hag66@shakespeare.lit/pda' type='result'> <query xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/disco#items'> <item jid='heath@muclight.shakespeare.lit' name='A Lonely Heath' version='1'/> <item jid='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' name='A Dark Cave' version='2'/> <item jid='forres@muclight.shakespeare.lit' name='The Palace' version='3'/> <item jid='inverness@muclight.shakespeare.lit' name='Macbeth's Castle' version='4'/> </query> </iq>
If the full list of rooms is large (see XEP-0030 for details), the service MAY return only a partial list of rooms. If it does so, it MUST include a <set/> element qualified by the 'http://jabber.org/protocol/rsm' namespace (as defined in Result Set Management (XEP-0059) [1]) to indicate that the list is not the full result set.
Example 7. Service Returns Limited List of Disco Items Result
<iq from='muclight.shakespeare.lit' id='hx51v49s' to='hag66@shakespeare.lit/pda' type='result'> <query xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/disco#items'> <item jid='alls-well-that-ends-well@muclight.shakespeare.lit' name='Everybody dies' version='1'/> <item jid='as-you-like-it@muclight.shakespeare.lit' name='As you like it' version='2'/> <item jid='cleopatra@muclight.shakespeare.lit' name='Cleo fans' version='3'/> <item jid='comedy-of-errors@muclight.shakespeare.lit' name='404 Comedy not found' version='4'/> <item jid='coriolanus@muclight.shakespeare.lit' name='What is Coriolanus?' version='5'/> <item jid='cymbeline@muclight.shakespeare.lit' name='Music room' version='6'/> <item jid='hamlet@muclight.shakespeare.lit' name='To chat or not to chat?' version='7'/> <item jid='henry-the-fourth-one@muclight.shakespeare.lit' name='Royal Room 1' version='8'/> <item jid='henry-the-fourth-two@muclight.shakespeare.lit' name='Royal Room 2' version='9'/> <item jid='henry-the-fifth@muclight.shakespeare.lit' name='Royal Room Prime' version='10'/> <set xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/rsm'> <first index='0'>alls-well-that-ends-well@muclight.shakespeare.lit</first> <last>henry-the-fifth@muclight.shakespeare.lit</last> <count>37</count> </set> </query> </iq>
Every occupant in the room MAY broadcast messages to other occupants. In order to do so, the client MUST send a groupchat message to the room bare JID.
The room automatically assumes that occupants' nicks are equal to their bare JIDs. MUC light is designed for applications where it is not important to hide behind nicknames. On the contrary - it is up to th client to replace pure JIDs with user-friendly names like phone numbers or full names if necessary.
Room MUST route all messages of type 'groupchat'.
Example 8. Client sends a message to the room
<message from='hag66@shakespeare.lit/pda' id='hysf1v37' to='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' type='groupchat'> <body>Harpier cries: 'tis time, 'tis time.</body> </message>
Example 9. Server broadcasts a groupchat message
<message id='msg111' type='groupchat' from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit/hag66@shakespeare.lit' to='crone1@shakespeare.lit'> <body>Harpier cries: 'tis time, 'tis time.</body> </message> <message id='msg111' type='groupchat' from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit/hag66@shakespeare.lit' to='crone2@shakespeare.lit> <body>Harpier cries: 'tis time, 'tis time.</body> </message>
The service MAY allow room occupants to set the room subject by changing "subject" configuration field. A standard configuration stanza is used in this case. Subject change is announced like an ordinary configuration change.
Example 10. Client sends a message to the room
<iq from='hag66@shakespeare.lit/pda' id='subject1' to='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' type='set'> <query xmlns='urn:xmpp:muclight:0#configuration'> <subject>To be or not to be?</subject> </query> </iq> <message from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' to='crone1@shakespeare.lit' type='groupchat' id='newsubject'> <x xmlns='urn:xmpp:muclight:0#configuration'> <prev-version>asdfghj000</prev-version> <version>asdfghj</version> <subject>To be or not to be?</subject> </x> <body /> </message> <message from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' to='hag66@shakespeare.lit' type='groupchat' id='newsubject'> <x xmlns='urn:xmpp:muclight:0#configuration'> <prev-version>asdfghj000</prev-version> <version>asdfghj</version> <subject>To be or not to be?</subject> </x> <body /> </message> <iq to='hag66@shakespeare.lit/pda' id='subject1' from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' type='result' />
Room occupant may request room information (configuration and/or occupants list) by information version. It is up to service to define the version string, the only requirement for it is to be unique per room. Please note there are no separate versions for configuration and occupant list alone.
If the server side version does not match the one provided by the client (or if the client does not provide one, i.e. 'version' element is empty), the service MUST respond with a current version string and full configuration and/or occupant list.
If the version strings match, server MUST reply with an empty result.
Only room occupants can get room information.
<iq from='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' id='config0' to='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' type='get'> <query xmlns='urn:xmpp:muclight:0#configuration'> <version>abcdefg</version> </query> </iq> <iq from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' id='config0' to='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' type='result' />
Example 12. Client gets configuration from the server
<iq from='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' id='getconfig1' to='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' type='get'> <query xmlns='urn:xmpp:muclight:0#configuration'> <version>abcdefg</version> </query> </iq> <iq from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' id='getconfig1' to='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' type='result'> <query xmlns='urn:xmpp:muclight:0#configuration'> <version>123456</version> <roomname>A Dark Cave</roomname> </query> </iq>
Example 13. Client requests a user list
<iq from='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' id='getmembers' to='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' type='get'> <query xmlns='urn:xmpp:muclight:0#affiliations'> <version>abcdefg</version> </query> </iq> <iq from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' id='getmembers' to='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' type='result'> <query xmlns='urn:xmpp:muclight:0#affiliations'> <version>123456</version> <user affiliation='owner'>user1@shakespeare.lit</user> <user affiliation='member'>user2@shakespeare.lit</user> <user affiliation='member'>user3@shakespeare.lit</user> </query> </iq>
Room occupants may request both lists (configuration + occupants) with a single request.
Example 14. Client requests room information
<iq from='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' id='getinfo1' to='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' type='get'> <query xmlns='urn:xmpp:muclight:0#info'> <version>abcdefg</version> </query> </iq> <iq from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' id='getinfo1' to='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' type='result'> <query xmlns='urn:xmpp:muclight:0#info'> <version>123456</version> <configuration> <roomname>A Dark Cave</roomname> </configuration> <occupants> <user affiliation='owner'>user1@shakespeare.lit</user> <user affiliation='member'>user2@shakespeare.lit</user> <user affiliation='member'>user3@shakespeare.lit</user> </occupants> </query> </iq>
Every occupant is allowed to leave the room at any time. It is done by modifying own affiliation.
Example 15. Occupant leaves the room
<iq from='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' id='leave1' to='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' type='set'> <query xmlns='urn:xmpp:muclight:0#affiliations'> <user affiliation='none'>crone1@shakespeare.lit</user> </query> </iq> <message from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' to='crone1@shakespeare.lit' type='groupchat' id='leave1'> <x xmlns='urn:xmpp:muclight:0#affiliations'> <user affiliation='none'>crone1@shakespeare.lit</user> </x> <body /> </message> <message from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' to='hag77@shakespeare.lit' type='groupchat' id='leave1'> <x xmlns='urn:xmpp:muclight:0#affiliations'> <prev-version>1111111</prev-version> <version>aaaaaaa</version> <user affiliation='none'>crone1@shakespeare.lit</user> </x> <body /> </message> <message from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' to='hag88@shakespeare.lit' type='groupchat' id='leave1'> <x xmlns='urn:xmpp:muclight:0#affiliations'> <prev-version>1111111</prev-version> <version>aaaaaaa</version> <user affiliation='none'>crone1@shakespeare.lit</user> </x> <body /> </message> <iq to='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' id='leave1' from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' type='result' />
A user MAY choose to automatically deny being added to the room. All stanzas must be directed to MUC Light service. User MAY send more than one item in a single request and mix both 'user' and 'room' elements.
If the occupant tries to add another user to the room, and this user has set a blocking policy, the server MUST ignore the attempt. No error is returned, this user is simply skipped when processing affiliation change query.
Example 16. Service denies adding blocking user
<iq from='crone2@shakespeare.lit/desktop' id='blocked1' to='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' type='set'> <query xmlns='urn:xmpp:muclight:0#affiliations'> <user affiliation='member'>crone1@shakespeare.lit</user> <user affiliation='member'>crone3@shakespeare.lit</user> </query> </iq> <message from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' to='crone2@shakespeare.lit' type='groupchat' id='blockedadd1'> <x xmlns='urn:xmpp:muclight:0#affiliations'> <user affiliation='member'>crone3@shakespeare.lit</user> </x> <body /> </message> <message from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' to='hag88@@shakespeare.lit' type='groupchat' id='blockedadd1'> <x xmlns='urn:xmpp:muclight:0#affiliations'> <user affiliation='member'>crone3@shakespeare.lit</user> </x> <body /> </message> <iq to='crone2@shakespeare.lit/desktop' id='blocked1' from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' type='result' />
In order to get the current blocking list in MUC Light service, the client sends an empty IQ get query with a proper namespace.
The list includes only items with a 'deny' action, since the 'allow' behaviour is default for MUC Light and is only used for the list modification.
Example 17. User retrieves a blocking list
<iq from='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' id='getblock1' to='muclight.shakespeare.lit' type='get'> <query xmlns='urn:xmpp:muclight:0#blocking'> </query> </iq> <iq type='result' id='getblock1' to='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' from='muclight.shakespeare.lit'> <query xmlns='urn:xmpp:muclight:0#blocking'> <room action='deny'>coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit</room> <user action='deny'>hag77@shakespeare.lit</user> </query> </iq>
In order to block a room, a query must contain at least one 'room' item with a 'deny' action and room bare JID in the content.
Example 18. User blocks a room
<iq from='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' id='block1' to='muclight.shakespeare.lit' type='set'> <query xmlns='urn:xmpp:muclight:0#blocking'> <room action='deny'>coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit</room> <room action='deny'>chapel@shakespeare.lit</room> </query> </iq> <iq type='result' id='block1' to='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' from='muclight.shakespeare.lit' />
In order to block a room, a query must contain at least one 'user' item with a 'deny' action and user bare JID in the content.
Example 19. User blocks another user
<iq from='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' id='block2' to='muclight.shakespeare.lit' type='set'> <query xmlns='urn:xmpp:muclight:0#blocking'> <user action='deny'>hag66@shakespeare.lit</user> <user action='deny'>hag77@shakespeare.lit</user> </query> </iq> <iq type='result' id='block2' to='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' from='muclight.shakespeare.lit' />
In order to cancel a blocking, a query must contain at least one 'room' or 'user' item with an 'allow' action and an appropriate bare JID in the content.
Unblocking a JID that is not blocked does not trigger any error. The server MUST return empty IQ result in such case.
Example 20. User cancels blocking
<iq from='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' id='unblock1' to='muclight.shakespeare.lit' type='set'> <query xmlns='urn:xmpp:muclight:0#blocking'> <room action='allow'>coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit</room> <user action='allow'>hag66@shakespeare.lit</user> </query> </iq> <iq type='result' id='unblock1' to='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' from='muclight.shakespeare.lit' />
A room is created by submitting a dedicated stanza. The client application should pick random room node name, since human-readable room name is in configuration.
For rules that apply to the configuration options, please see "Setting room configuration" chapter.
The client MAY include initial configuration and occupant list (the list MUST NOT include the creator). The server MAY allow sending incomplete configuration form. In such case the server MUST use default values for missing fields. The server MAY enforce a minimal occupant list length.
The service MAY either give the creator the 'owner' or 'member' status. In the latter case all users are equal.
Upon room creation success, the service MUST reply with an empty IQ result.
The following rules (similar to the ones relevant to the affiliation change request) apply to the occupant list:
After the room is created (but before receiving IQ result), new occupants (including creator) receive <message/> from the room with their affiliations (stanza MUST include only recipient's affiliation) and initial room version. <prev-version /> element MUST NOT be included.
Example 21. Client requests room creation
<iq from='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' id='create1' to='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' type='set'> <query xmlns='urn:xmpp:muclight:0#create'> <configuration> <roomname>A Dark Cave</roomname> </configuration> <occupants> <user affiliation='member'>user1@shakespeare.lit</user> <user affiliation='member'>user2@shakespeare.lit</user> </occupants> </query> </iq> <message from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' to='crone1@shakespeare.lit' type='groupchat' id='createnotif'> <x xmlns='urn:xmpp:muclight:0#affiliations'> <version>aaaaaaa</version> <user affiliation='owner'>crone1@shakespeare.lit</user> </x> <body /> </message> <message from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' to='user1@shakespeare.lit' type='groupchat' id='createnotif'> <x xmlns='urn:xmpp:muclight:0#affiliations'> <version>aaaaaaa</version> <user affiliation='member'>user1@shakespeare.lit</user> </x> <body /> </message> <message from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' to='user2@shakespeare.lit' type='groupchat' id='createnotif'> <x xmlns='urn:xmpp:muclight:0#affiliations'> <version>aaaaaaa</version> <user affiliation='member'>user2@shakespeare.lit</user> </x> <body /> </message> <iq to='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' id='create1' from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' type='result' />
If a client would like to avoid a room JID conflict, it MAY request creating a new room with a server-side generated name, that is verfied to be unique. In order to do so, the client MUST send a creation request to service JID, not room bare JID. The IQ result will originate from the new room bare JID
The messages with affiliation change notifications MUST have the same ID as IQ set and result.
Example 22. Client requests room creation
<iq from='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' id='createrandom' to='muclight.shakespeare.lit' type='set'> <query xmlns='urn:xmpp:muclight:0#create'> <configuration> <roomname>Random Cave</roomname> </configuration> </query> </iq> <message from='randomcave@muclight.shakespeare.lit' to='crone1@shakespeare.lit' type='groupchat' id='createrandom'> <x xmlns='urn:xmpp:muclight:0#affiliations'> <version>aaaaaaa</version> <user affiliation='owner'>crone1@shakespeare.lit</user> </x> <body /> </message> <iq to='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' id='createrandom' from='muclight.shakespeare.lit' type='result' />
If the chosen room name already exists, the service MUST return 'conflict' error.
Example 23. Client requests room creation with existing name
<iq from='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' id='conflict1' to='castle@muclight.shakespeare.lit' type='set'> <query xmlns='urn:xmpp:muclight:0#create'> <configuration> <roomname>A Dark Cave</roomname> </configuration> </query> </iq> <iq to='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' id='conflict1' from='castle@muclight.shakespeare.lit' type='error'> <error type='cancel'> <conflict xmlns='urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:xmpp-stanzas'/> </error> </iq>
A room is automatically destroyed when its occupant list becomes empty or the room owner explicitly sends IQ with a room destroy request.
Before sending an IQ result, every occupant is notified that its affiliation has changed to 'none'. These notifications include <x/> element qualified with "urn:xmpp:muclight:0#destroy" namespace.
Only the room owner is allowed to destroy it.
Room destruction notification SHOULD NOT contain version (or "prev-version" information).
Example 24. Client requests room destruction
<iq from='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' id='destroy1' to='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' type='set'> <query xmlns='urn:xmpp:muclight:0#destroy' /> </iq> <message from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' to='crone1@shakespeare.lit' type='groupchat' id='destroynotif'> <x xmlns='urn:xmpp:muclight:0#affiliations'> <user affiliation='none'>crone1@shakespeare.lit</user> </x> <x xmlns='urn:xmpp:muclight:0#destroy' /> <body /> </message> <message from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' to='hag77@shakespeare.lit' type='groupchat' id='destroynotif'> <x xmlns='urn:xmpp:muclight:0#affiliations'> <user affiliation='none'>hag77@shakespeare.lit</user> </x> <x xmlns='urn:xmpp:muclight:0#destroy' /> <body /> </message> <message from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' to='hag88@shakespeare.lit' type='groupchat' id='destroynotif'> <x xmlns='urn:xmpp:muclight:0#affiliations'> <user affiliation='none'>hag88@shakespeare.lit</user> </x> <x xmlns='urn:xmpp:muclight:0#destroy' /> <body /> </message> <iq to='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' id='create1' from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' type='result' />
Only room owners can modify room configuration but the service MAY allow members to change it too.
All room occupants MUST be notified about a configuration change and both the new and old room version string (<version /> and <prev-version /> respectively).
"version" and "prev-version" configuration field names are NOT ALLOWED - they are reserved for room versioning.
The service MAY allow the client to set the configuration fields with any name but it is NOT RECOMMENDED.
The Data Forms are not used for the configuration. Instead, the config fields are encoded in XML elements with names equal to the key and content equal to the value.
Example 25. Client configuration request to the server
<iq from='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' id='conf2' to='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' type='set'> <query xmlns='urn:xmpp:muclight:0#configuration'> <roomname>A Darker Cave</roomname> </query> </iq> <message from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' to='crone1@shakespeare.lit' type='groupchat' id='configchange'> <x xmlns='urn:xmpp:muclight:0#configuration'> <prev-version>zaqwsx</prev-version> <version>zxcvbnm</version> <roomname>A Darker Cave</roomname> </x> <body /> </message> <message from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' to='hag66@shakespeare.lit' type='groupchat' id='configchange'> <x xmlns='urn:xmpp:muclight:0#configuration'> <prev-version>zaqwsx</prev-version> <version>zxcvbnm</version> <roomname>A Darker Cave</roomname> </x> <body /> </message> <iq to='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' id='conf2' from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' type='result' />
The server SHOULD accept incomplete (i.e. delta) configuration forms. In such case, values of the missing fields SHOULD be preserved.
The occupant list is modified by a direct affiliation change. Following rules apply:
On success the server will reply with result IQ with all changed items. BEFORE returning the IQ result, the service MUST route a message with affiliation change to all relevant users.
Newcomers, i.e. users that were not occupants before the change, SHOULD receive only their own affiliation and SHOULD NOT receive <prev-version /> element.
The notifications must include both the new and old room version (<version /> and <prev-version /> respectively) string (except for the ones directed to users that have been removed from the room).
The notifications contain a list of items. The item list may be different from the list in IQ set, because some of the changes may require additional operations, e.g. choosing new owner when the old one leaves. Users, that are still in the room after change, will receive full change list. Users, that have been removed from the room with the request, will get only one item: themselves with affiliation 'none'.
Example 26. Affiliations change request
<iq from='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' id='member1' to='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' type='set'> <query xmlns='urn:xmpp:muclight:0#affiliations'> <user affiliation='member'>hag66@shakespeare.lit</user> <user affiliation='owner'>hag77@shakespeare.lit</user> <user affiliation='none'>hag88@shakespeare.lit</user> </query> </iq> <message from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' to='crone1@shakespeare.lit' type='groupchat' id='memberchange'> <x xmlns='urn:xmpp:muclight:0#affiliations'> <prev-version>njiokm</prev-version> <version>qwerty</version> <user affiliation='member'>crone1@shakespeare.lit</user> <user affiliation='member'>hag66@shakespeare.lit</user> <user affiliation='owner'>hag77@shakespeare.lit</user> <user affiliation='none'>hag88@shakespeare.lit</user> </x> <body></body> </message> <message from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' to='hag66@shakespeare.lit' type='groupchat' id='memberchange'> <x xmlns='urn:xmpp:muclight:0#affiliations'> <version>qwerty</version> <user affiliation='member'>hag66@shakespeare.lit</user> </x> <body></body> </message> <message from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' to='hag77@shakespeare.lit' type='groupchat' id='memberchange'> <x xmlns='urn:xmpp:muclight:0#affiliations'> <prev-version>njiokm</prev-version> <version>qwerty</version> <user affiliation='member'>crone1@shakespeare.lit</user> <user affiliation='member'>hag66@shakespeare.lit</user> <user affiliation='owner'>hag77@shakespeare.lit</user> <user affiliation='none'>hag88@shakespeare.lit</user> </x> <body></body> </message> <message from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' to='hag88@shakespeare.lit' type='groupchat' id='memberchange'> <x xmlns='urn:xmpp:muclight:0#affiliations'> <user affiliation='none'>hag88@shakespeare.lit</user> </x> <body></body> </message> <iq to='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' id='member1' from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' type='result' />
The service MAY add user's rooms to its roster. It allows the client to skip separate Disco request to the service. Roster items with rooms MUST belong to the group "urn:xmpp:muclight:0" (MUC Light namespace) and include <version> element. Their subscription type MUST be 'to'.
Example 27. Entity requests the roster and receives reply that includes room item
<iq type='get' id='roster1' to='shakespeare.lit'> <query xmlns='jabber:iq:roster'/> </iq> <iq id='roster1' to='hag66@shakespeare.lit/tablet' type='result'> <query xmlns='jabber:iq:roster' ver='ver7'> <item jid='hag77@shakespeare.lit' subscription='both'/> <item jid='hag88@shakespeare.lit' subscription='both'/> <item jid='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' name='The Coven' subscription='to'> <group>urn:xmpp:muclight:0</group> <version>1234345</version> </item> </query> </iq>
This section defines the rules for archiving MUC Light events and messages. Stanzas described in the subsections below MUST be archived by the server. The stanzas not included here MUST NOT be archived.
The <message/> element inside <forwarded> MUST include "from" attribute and MUST NOT include "to" attribute. "id" SHOULD be archived as well.
In case of regular groupchat messages, "from" attribute MUST consist of a room full JID with sender bare JID in the resource part. As for room notification, e.g. create event, "from" MUST be equal to room bare JID.
Examples below use MAM v0.4 protocol. Archive can be fetched only from a specific room, the client MUST NOT query MUC Light service directly.
Message from a user MUST be archived with all child elements.
Example 28. Occupant queries MAM and receives regular groupchat message
<iq type='set' id='mamget1' to='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit'> <query xmlns='urn:xmpp:mam:1' queryid='f27' /> </iq> <message id='aeb213' to='hag66@shakespeare.lit/pda'> <result xmlns='urn:xmpp:mam:1' queryid='f27' id='28482-98726-73623'> <forwarded xmlns='urn:xmpp:forward:0'> <delay xmlns='urn:xmpp:delay' stamp='2010-07-10T23:08:25Z'/> <message from="coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit/hag77@shakespeare.lit" id="msgid11"> <body>Welcome!</body> <x xmlns="elixir:ingredient">bat-wing</x> </message> </forwarded> </result> </message> <iq type='result' id='mamget1' from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit'/>
Every archived affiliation change notification MUST include <version> element and MUST NOT contain <prev-version> element.
Example 29. Occupant queries MAM and receives affiliation change notification
<iq type='set' id='mamget2' to='muclight.shakespeare.lit'> <query xmlns='urn:xmpp:mam:1' queryid='f37' /> </iq> <message id='aef2133' to='hag66@shakespeare.lit/pda'> <result xmlns='urn:xmpp:mam:1' queryid='f37' id='21482-98726-71623'> <forwarded xmlns='urn:xmpp:forward:0'> <delay xmlns='urn:xmpp:delay' stamp='2013-07-10T21:08:25Z'/> <message from="coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit" id="notifid11"> <x xmlns='urn:xmpp:muclight:0#affiliations'> <version>b9uf13h98f13</version> <user affiliation='owner'>hag66@shakespeare.lit</user> <user affiliation='member'>user1@shakespeare.lit</user> <user affiliation='member'>user2@shakespeare.lit</user> </x> </message> </forwarded> </result> </message> <iq type='result' id='mamget12'/>
Room creation is archived as an affiliation change that includes ALL initial occupants (including the room creator).
If a client sends a stanza to the room, that it does not occupy, the service MUST reply with the 'item-not-found' error.
<iq from='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' id='member1' to='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' type='set'> <query xmlns='urn:xmpp:muclight:0#affiliations'> <user affiliation='member'>hag66@shakespeare.lit</user> </query> </iq> <iq to='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' id='member1' from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' type='error'> <error type='cancel'> <not-allowed xmlns='urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:xmpp-stanzas'/> </error> </iq>
Example 31. Unauthorized message
<message from='hag66@shakespeare.lit/pda' id='unauth2' to='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' type='groupchat'> <body>Harpier cries: 'tis time, 'tis time.</body> </message> <message to='hag66@shakespeare.lit/pda' id='unauth2' from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' type='error'> <error type='cancel'> <not-allowed xmlns='urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:xmpp-stanzas'/> </error> </message>
The service MUST ignore all <presence/> stanzas sent by the client.
If service receives a stanza with invalid syntax, it MUST reply with a 'bad-request' error.
<iq from='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' id='bad1' to='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' type='set'> <query xmlns='urn:xmpp:muclight:0#affiliations'> <item role='participant'>hag66@shakespeare.lit</item> </query> </iq> <iq to='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' id='bad1' from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' type='error'> <error type='modify'> <bad-request xmlns='urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:xmpp-stanzas'/> </error> </iq>
<message from='hag66@shakespeare.lit/pda' id='bad2' to='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' type='chat'> <body>Harpier cries: 'tis time, 'tis time.</body> </message> <message to='hag66@shakespeare.lit/pda' id='bad2' from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' type='error'> <error type='modify'> <bad-request xmlns='urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:xmpp-stanzas'/> </error> </message>
If the request sender does not have sufficient privileges (but is a room occupant), the service MUST reply with a 'not-allowed' error.
It occurs in the following cases:
<iq from='minion@shakespeare.lit/desktop' id='privileges1' to='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' type='set'> <query xmlns='urn:xmpp:muclight:0#affiliations'> <user role='owner'>minion@shakespeare.lit</user> </query> </iq> <iq to='minion@shakespeare.lit/desktop' id='privileges1' from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' type='error'> <error type='cancel'> <not-allowed xmlns='urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:xmpp-stanzas'/> </error> </iq>
Some client-side developers might choose to use existing XEP-0045 Multi-User Chat implementations to interface with the new MUC Light. There may be various reasons to do so: using familiar protocol, avoiding additional implementation, quick prototyping etc. This section provides suggestions of mappings between XEP-0045 stanzas and the new ones described in this document.
Operations not described here SHOULD remain unmodified.
A Disco result MAY either include new <feature /> element with an "http://jabber.org/protocol/muc" namespace next to MUC Light one, or completely replace it, which is RECOMMENDED behaviour.
Example 35. Returning MUC namespace in Disco
<iq from='hag66@shakespeare.lit/pda' id='lx09df27' to='muclight.shakespeare.lit' type='get'> <query xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/disco#info'/> </iq> <iq from='muclight.shakespeare.lit' id='lx09df27' to='hag66@shakespeare.lit/pda' type='result'> <query xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/disco#info'> <identity category='conference' name='Shakespearean Chat Service' type='text'/> <feature var='http://jabber.org/protocol/muc'/> </query> </iq>
The room list MUST not include room versions.
Example 36. Service Returns Disco Items Result
<iq from='muclight.shakespeare.lit' id='zb8q41f4' to='hag66@shakespeare.lit/pda' type='result'> <query xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/disco#items'> <item jid='heath@muclight.shakespeare.lit' name='A Lonely Heath'/> <item jid='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' name='A Dark Cave'/> <item jid='forres@muclight.shakespeare.lit' name='The Palace'/> <item jid='inverness@muclight.shakespeare.lit' name='Macbeth's Castle'/> </query> </iq>
Instead of distributing the configuration change notifications, the room MUST route <message/> with <subject/> like a classic MUC would. The client MUST send classic message <subject/> as well. The room SHOULD save new subject in the room configuration.
Example 37. New subject is routed as ordinary message
<message from='hag66@shakespeare.lit/pda' id='compsubject' to='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' type='groupchat'> <subject>To be or not to be?</subject> </message> <message from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' to='crone1@shakespeare.lit' type='groupchat' id='compsubject'> <subject>To be or not to be?</subject> </message> <message from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' to='hag66@shakespeare.lit' type='groupchat' id='compsubject'> <subject>To be or not to be?</subject> </message>
Room configuration is encoded in Data Form, that simulates XEP-0045 config form.
Getting room configuration does not benefit from room versioning.
Example 38. Requesting room configuration
<iq from='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' id='comp-config' to='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' type='get'> <query xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/muc#owner'/> </iq> <iq from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' id='comp-config' to='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' type='result'> <query xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/muc#owner'> <x xmlns='jabber:x:data' type='form'> <title>Configuration for "coven" Room</title> <field type='hidden' var='FORM_TYPE'> <value>http://jabber.org/protocol/muc#roomconfig</value> </field> <field label='Natural-Language Room Name' type='text-single' var='muc#roomconfig_roomname'> <value>A Dark Cave</value> </field> <field label='Room subject' type='text-single' var='muc#roomconfig_subject'> <value>To be or not to be?</value> </field> </x> </query> </iq>
User list is retrieved with affiliation IQ get.
Example 39. Requesting affiliation list
<iq from='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' id='comp-getaff' to='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' type='get'> <query xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/muc#admin'> <item affiliation='owner'/> <item affiliation='member'/> </query> </iq> <iq from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' id='comp-getaff' to='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' type='result'> <query xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/muc#admin'> <item affiliation='owner' jid='crone1@shakespeare.lit' nick='crone1@shakespeare.lit' role='moderator'/> <item affiliation='member' jid='hag66@shakespeare.lit' nick='hag66@shakespeare.lit' role='participant'/> </query> </iq>
There is no XEP-0045 equivalent for getting full room information
Leaving the room is performed by setting own affiliation to 'none'. The service uses <presence/> to notify all occupants (and former occupant) about the change. <presence/> to the leaving occupant MUST be of type "unavailable" and MUST include status code 321 (i.e. user leaving due to affiliation change).
Example 40. Requesting affiliation list
<iq from='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' id='comp-leave' to='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' type='set'> <query xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/muc#admin'> <item affiliation='none' jid='crone1@shakespeare.lit'/> </query> </iq> <presence from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit/crone1@shakespeare.lit' to='crone1@shakespeare.lit' type='unavailable'> <x xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/muc#user'> <item affiliation='none' jid='crone1@shakespeare.lit/pda' role='none'/> <status code='321'/> </x> </presence> <presence from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit/crone1@shakespeare.lit' to='hag66@shakespeare.lit/desktop'> <x xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/muc#user'> <item affiliation='none' jid='crone1@shakespeare.lit/pda' role='none'/> <status code='321'/> </x> </presence> <iq from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' id='comp-leave' to='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' type='result'/>
Blocking functionality uses small subset of Privacy Lists protocol. Stanzas MUST be addressed to the server JID and.
The privacy list name MUST be equal to "urn:xmpp:muclight:0"
Obviously, this method won't work properly in XMPP Server Federation.
As opposed to XEP-0016, it is allowed to send "delta" privacy lists.
Example 41. Retrieving blocking list
<iq from='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' type='get' id='comp-getlist'> <query xmlns='jabber:iq:privacy'> <list name='urn:xmpp:muclight:0'/> </query> </iq> <iq type='result' id='comp-getlist' to='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop'> <query xmlns='jabber:iq:privacy'> <list name='urn:xmpp:muclight:0'> <item type='jid' value='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' action='deny' order='1'/> <item type='jid' value='muclight.shakespeare.lit/hag66@shakespeare.lit' action='deny' order='1'/> </list> </query> </iq>
In order to block a room, the client MUST deny room bare JID in privacy list.
<iq from='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' type='set' id='comp-blockroom'> <query xmlns='jabber:iq:privacy'> <list name='urn:xmpp:muclight:0'> <item type='jid' value='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' action='deny' order='1'/> </list> </query> </iq> <iq type='result' id='comp-blockroom' to='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' />
In order to block a room, the client MUST deny service JID with user's bare JID in resource.
<iq from='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' type='set' id='comp-blockuser'> <query xmlns='jabber:iq:privacy'> <list name='urn:xmpp:muclight:0'> <item type='jid' value='muclight.shakespeare.lit/hag66@shakespeare.lit' action='deny' order='1'/> </list> </query> </iq> <iq type='result' id='comp-blockuser' to='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' />
<iq from='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' type='get' id='comp-getlist'> <query xmlns='jabber:iq:privacy'> <list name='urn:xmpp:muclight:0'> <item type='jid' value='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' action='allow' order='1'/> <item type='jid' value='muclight.shakespeare.lit/hag66@shakespeare.lit' action='allow' order='1'/> </list> </query> </iq> <iq type='result' id='comp-getlist' to='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' />
Room is created in standard XEP-0045 way. Client MUST use nick equal to own bare JID.
Compatibility mode MUST NOT support unique room name generation.
<presence from='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' to='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit/crone1@shakespeare.lit'> <x xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/muc'/> </presence> <presence from='coven@chat.shakespeare.lit/crone1@shakespeare.lit' to='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop'> <x xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/muc#user'> <item affiliation='owner' role='moderator'/> <status code='110'/> <status code='201'/> </x> </presence>
If the client attempts to create a room that is already used, it will receive error <presence/> informing that registration is required (like in case of members-only rooms in XEP-0045)
<presence from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit/crone1@shakespeare.lit' to='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' type='error'> <x xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/muc'/> <error by='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' type='auth'> <registration-required xmlns='urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:xmpp-stanzas'/> </error> </presence>
Classic XEP-0045 method is used but the service SHOULD NOT forward reason and alternate venue JID.
Example 47. Destroying the room
<iq from='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' id='begone' to='heath@muclight.shakespeare.lit' type='set'> <query xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/muc#owner'> <destroy jid='coven@muclight.shakespare.lit'> <reason>Some reason.</reason> </destroy> </query> </iq> <presence from='heath@chat.shakespeare.lit/crone1@shakespeare.lit' to='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' type='unavailable'> <x xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/muc#user'> <item affiliation='none' role='none'/> <destroy /> </x> </presence> <presence from='heath@chat.shakespeare.lit/wiccarocks@shakespeare.lit' to='wiccarocks@shakespeare.lit/laptop' type='unavailable'> <x xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/muc#user'> <item affiliation='none' role='none'/> <destroy /> </x> </presence> <presence from='heath@chat.shakespeare.lit/hag66@shakespeare.lit' to='hag66@shakespeare.lit/pda' type='unavailable'> <x xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/muc#user'> <item affiliation='none' role='none'/> <destroy /> </x> </presence> <iq from='heath@chat.shakespeare.lit' id='begone' to='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' type='result'/>
Room occupants can use standard XEP-0045 configuration modification method. The service MUST broadcast only the notification about configuration change with status code 104, so every occupant can retrieve new room configuration in separate request. The client is allowed to send config delta in a form.
Example 48. Setting room configuration
<iq to='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' id='comp-setconfig' from='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' type='set'> <query xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/muc#owner'> <x xmlns='jabber:x:data' type='form'> <field type='hidden' var='FORM_TYPE'> <value>http://jabber.org/protocol/muc#roomconfig</value> </field> <field label='Natural-Language Room Name' type='text-single' var='muc#roomconfig_roomname'> <value>A Darker Cave</value> </field> <field label='Room subject' type='text-single' var='muc#roomconfig_subject'> <value>To be!</value> </field> </x> </query> </iq> <message from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' id='comp-confchange' to='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' type='groupchat'> <x xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/muc#user'> <status code='104'/> </x> </message> <message from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' id='comp-confchange' to='crone2@shakespeare.lit/desktop' type='groupchat'> <x xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/muc#user'> <status code='104'/> </x> </message> <iq from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' id='comp-setconfig' to='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' type='result'/>
The service MUST send affiliation change notification to all participants. Leaving users MUST NOT receive any information except for their own "none" affiliation. New users MUST receive invitation message.
Example 49. Changing occupant list
<iq from='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' id='comp-setaff' to='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' type='set'> <query xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/muc#admin'> <item affiliation='none' jid='hag66@shakespeare.lit'/> <item affiliation='member' jid='hecate@shakespeare.lit'/> </query> </iq> <presence from='coven@chat.shakespeare.lit/hag66@shakespeare.lit' to='hag66@shakespeare.lit' type='unavailable'> <x xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/muc#user'> <item affiliation='none' jid='hag66@shakespeare.lit' role='none'/> <status code='321'/> </x> </presence> <message from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' id='comp-invite0' to='hecate@shakespeare.lit'> <x xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/muc#user'> <invite from='crone1@shakespeare.lit'/> </x> </message> <presence from='coven@chat.shakespeare.lit/hag66@shakespeare.lit' to='crone1@shakespeare.lit' type='unavailable'> <x xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/muc#user'> <item affiliation='none' jid='hag66@shakespeare.lit' role='none'/> <status code='321'/> </x> </presence> <presence from='coven@chat.shakespeare.lit/hecate@shakespeare.lit' to='crone1@shakespeare.lit'> <x xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/muc#user'> <item affiliation='member' jid='hecate@shakespeare.lit' role='participant' nick='hecate@shakespeare.lit'/> </x> </presence> <iq from='coven@muclight.shakespeare.lit' id='comp-setaff' to='crone1@shakespeare.lit/desktop' type='result'/>
MUC Light service may be abused by malicious users, e.g. due to replicating single message for every room occupant. The list below contains suggested configurable limits that SHOULD be implemented.
The service features that might vary depending on specific application are included as well.
Since every user is allowed to create rooms in MUC Light, it is possible to achieve high ratio of messages delivered to the clients to messages sent by the clients with little effort. To mitigate or avoid this issue, the service MAY implement additional rules like limiting per-user room count or message rate in a room. Heuristic algorithms for analysing user behaviours MAY be used as well to monitor and detect potential attacks.
This document requires no interaction with the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) [2].

The Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol (XMPP) is defined in the XMPP Core (RFC 6120) and XMPP IM (RFC 6121) specifications contributed by the XMPP Standards Foundation to the Internet Standards Process, which is managed by the Internet Engineering Task Force in accordance with RFC 2026. Any protocol defined in this document has been developed outside the Internet Standards Process and is to be understood as an extension to XMPP rather than as an evolution, development, or modification of XMPP itself.
The primary venue for discussion of XMPP Extension Protocols is the <standards@xmpp.org> discussion list.
Discussion on other xmpp.org discussion lists might also be appropriate; see <http://xmpp.org/about/discuss.shtml> for a complete list.
Errata can be sent to <editor@xmpp.org>.
The following requirements keywords as used in this document are to be interpreted as described in RFC 2119: "MUST", "SHALL", "REQUIRED"; "MUST NOT", "SHALL NOT"; "SHOULD", "RECOMMENDED"; "SHOULD NOT", "NOT RECOMMENDED"; "MAY", "OPTIONAL".
1. XEP-0059: Result Set Management <http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0059.html>.
2. The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) is the central coordinator for the assignment of unique parameter values for Internet protocols, such as port numbers and URI schemes. For further information, see <http://www.iana.org/>.
