Description

Hello.
I'm trying to create a web app that apply educational tests, an i want to implement a spade environment in order to execute some complex process using a few agents (like 8), so in order to achieve that goal, i want to send a XMPP message from the api rest to the spade (agents) environments, i'm currently using ejabberd).

I'm looking for examples but i didn't found anything realated or similar, is there any option or recommendations to this?

Who is serving that api rest?

• If the api is served by an agent you can send the message from its controller (see https://spade-mas.readthedocs.io/en/latest/web.html#creating-custom-web-interfaces).
• If the api is served by an external application you'll probably need an XMPP javascript lib and create a connection to the XMPP server from javascript to send messages to your agents (e.g. https://github.com/xmppjs/xmpp.js).
