Connect using https
Hello
The network in my company does not allow me to use the default xmpp port. Is it possible to connect from Intellij Saros Plugin to an ejabberd server using Https?
For future reference: This is generally not the place to ask questions but rather to report issues with the plugin. Questions regarding the usage of Saros can be asked on our user gitter or user mailing list for general usage questions or our developer gitter or developer mailing list for more technical questions.
Regarding your question: Saros/I is currently lacking a general settings integration, meaning even if there were such an option, it would most likely not be accessible.
I am not familiar with the underlying networking logic, so I can't really answer your base question with any certainty. @stefaus Could you provide some information?
Hi @PascalLeMerrer, sorry but we have currently no Support for this.
I'm working on updating our xmpp library which will introduce the possibility for Bidirectional-streams Over Synchronous HTTP (BOSH). This and some other changes should allow connections in theory, but the next Problem will be that you can't use Peer-To-Peer Connections. This you could probably work around with a Socks-Proxy but I haven't tested. Otherwise this would need to use the XMPP-Server for all Session Data and depending on the XMPP server rate limits tend to be really slow.
If possible I would suggest to try using a VPN for this. SSH Port-Forwarding could also work but not for p2p without changes.

P2P connections are not tied to the connection to the XMPP server. it basically depends on the local firewall. The XMPP service is only used for sending a list of remote addresses to the destination.
Very handy for testing purposes. In Eclipse just add your default local address to the Saros preferences. Afterwards connection establishment is done in just under a second.
