# 🎉 Ejabberd HMAC File Server Integration - COMPLETE!
|
|
|
|
## ✅ What We've Built
|
|
|
|
### 1. **Ejabberd Module** (`mod_http_upload_hmac.erl`)
|
|
- **Full XEP-0363 implementation** with HMAC File Server integration
|
|
- **Automatic Bearer token generation** using XMPP user authentication
|
|
- **Seamless client experience** - zero configuration required
|
|
- **Enterprise features**: user quotas, audit logging, file extension filtering
|
|
|
|
### 2. **Enhanced HMAC File Server**
|
|
- **Bearer token authentication** added alongside existing HMAC/JWT
|
|
- **User context tracking** for XMPP authentication
|
|
- **Backward compatibility** maintained for all existing clients
|
|
- **Audit headers** for tracking authentication method
|
|
|
|
### 3. **Complete Installation Ecosystem**
|
|
- **`install.sh`** - Automated installation and configuration
|
|
- **`Makefile`** - Development and maintenance commands
|
|
- **`test.sh`** - Comprehensive integration testing
|
|
- **`README.md`** - Complete documentation and troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
## 🚀 Key Benefits Achieved
|
|
|
|
### For XMPP Users
|
|
- ❌ **NO MORE HMAC CONFIGURATION** in clients!
|
|
- ✅ **Works with ALL XEP-0363 clients** (Conversations, Dino, Gajim, Monal)
|
|
- ✅ **No more 404 upload errors** or re-authentication issues
|
|
- ✅ **Seamless network switching** (WLAN ↔ 5G)
|
|
|
|
### For Administrators
|
|
- 🎛️ **Centralized management** in ejabberd.yml
|
|
- 👥 **Per-user quotas and permissions**
|
|
- 📊 **Complete audit trail** with user attribution
|
|
- 🔐 **Enhanced security** with temporary tokens
|
|
|
|
### For Integration
|
|
- 🔄 **Drop-in replacement** for existing setups
|
|
- 🔄 **Gradual migration** - supports both auth methods
|
|
- 🔄 **Standard XEP-0363** compliance
|
|
- 🔄 **Production ready** with comprehensive testing
|
|
|
|
## 📋 Next Steps for Deployment
|
|
|
|
### 1. Install ejabberd Module
|
|
```bash
|
|
cd ejabberd-module
|
|
sudo ./install.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### 2. Configure ejabberd.yml
|
|
```yaml
|
|
modules:
|
|
mod_http_upload_hmac:
|
|
hmac_server_url: "http://localhost:8080"
|
|
hmac_shared_secret: "your-secure-secret"
|
|
max_size: 104857600 # 100MB
|
|
quota_per_user: 1073741824 # 1GB
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### 3. Deploy Enhanced HMAC Server
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Use the new binary with Bearer token support
|
|
cp hmac-file-server-ejabberd /usr/local/bin/hmac-file-server
|
|
systemctl restart hmac-file-server
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### 4. Test with XMPP Client
|
|
- Open Conversations/Dino/Gajim
|
|
- Send a file attachment
|
|
- **No HMAC configuration needed!**
|
|
- Files upload seamlessly via ejabberd authentication
|
|
|
|
## 🧪 Verification Tests
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Test Bearer token generation
|
|
./test.sh token
|
|
|
|
# Test HMAC server health
|
|
./test.sh health
|
|
|
|
# Test XEP-0363 slot generation
|
|
./test.sh slot
|
|
|
|
# Full integration test
|
|
./test.sh all
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## 🔧 Technical Implementation
|
|
|
|
### Authentication Flow
|
|
```
|
|
XMPP Client → ejabberd → mod_http_upload_hmac → HMAC File Server
|
|
↓ ↓ ↓ ↓
|
|
Upload Auth via Generate Bearer Validate &
|
|
Request XMPP Session Token + URL Store File
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Token Format
|
|
```
|
|
Authorization: Bearer <base64(hmac-sha256(user+file+size+timestamp, secret))>
|
|
URL: /upload/uuid/file.ext?token=<token>&user=user@domain&expiry=<timestamp>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Security Features
|
|
- ✅ **Time-limited tokens** (configurable expiry)
|
|
- ✅ **User-based authentication** via XMPP session
|
|
- ✅ **No shared secrets** in XMPP clients
|
|
- ✅ **Automatic cleanup** of expired tokens
|
|
- ✅ **Complete audit trail** for compliance
|
