삽질 중: Messaging 관련 사항들(history, protocol, mobile messenger APIs) 정리

wikipedia에서는 여러 내용이 있고 간략한 history는 아래 그림에서 볼 수 있음.

[Standards for Instant Messaging]

여러 messenger이 난립했던 관계로 아래와 같은 표준화 노력이 있었다고 함.

IETF's Session Initiation Protocol (SIP, 2000)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Session_Initiation_Protocol
IP network 상에서 음성, 화상 전화와 같은 multimedia 통신을 제어하기 위해 정의된 signaling protocol.
Henning Schulzrinne와 Mark Handley가 1996년 고안, 2000년 표준으로 채택됨.

SIP for Instant Messaging and Presence Leveraging Extensions (SIMPLE)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SIMPLE_(instant_messaging_protocol)
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6914
SIP를 기반으로 instant messaging, presence protocol를 명세한 extension
* SIP, SIMPLE은 아래 link 참고
: http://www.microsoft.com/korea/technet/prodtechnol/winxppro/plan/rtcprot.mspx

Application Exchange (APEX)

http://datatracker.ietf.org/wg/apex/charter/

Instant Messaging and Presence Protocol (IMPP)

http://datatracker.ietf.org/wg/impp/charter/
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instant_Messaging_and_Presence_Protocol
Simple instant messaging and presence 확인을 위한 architecture를 개발하기 위해 IETF wg에서 1999-2004 동안 만들어진 protocol

2000-02 RFC 2778: A Model for Presence and Instant Messaging (Informational)
2000-02 RFC 2779: Instant Messaging / Presence Protocol Requirements (Informational)
2002-07 RFC 3339: Date and Time on the Internet: Timestamps (Proposed Standard)

2004-08 RFC 3862: Common Presence and Instant Messaging (CPIM): Message Format (Proposed Standard)
2004-08 RFC 3863: Presence Information Data Format (PIDF) (Proposed Standard)

the open XML-based Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol (XMPP)

http://xmpp.org/
1998년 Jeremie Miller에 의해 만들어져 2004년 IETF 표준이 됨.
하단 링크 들 참고

Open Mobile Alliance's Instant Messaging and Presence Service (for mobile devices)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OMA_Instant_Messaging_and_Presence_Service
OMA enabler for Instant Messaging and Presence
Nokia, Motorola, Sony Ericsson, Siemens AG 폰들에 적용 되었음.

: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extensible_Messaging_and_Presence_Protocol

open standard로서 좀 사용되는 protocol이며 개발입장에서는 관련 open source server/client가 꽤 존재함.

[Mobile Messenger]

Global messenger market share
. http://www.1mtb.com/whatsapp-leads-the-global-mobile-messenger-wars-with-44-pc-market-share/

[WhatsApp mobile messenger]

- protocol : customized version of XMPP (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WhatsApp)
- 공식적인 official 3rd party API는 없는 것으로 보이나 기반 protocol이 XMPP이기 때문인지 unofficial한 API library가 존재함.(아래)
- 하지만 unofficial API library, client들은 DCMA로 부터 중단 요청을 받아 일부는 중단되었음.
(https://raw.githubusercontent.com/github/dmca/master/2014-02-12-WhatsApp.md)

- API는 아니지만 WhatApp app을 통해서 메세지를 보낼 수 있는 방법은 다음과 같음
: Android - http://www.whatsapp.com/faq/en/android/28000012
Intent sendIntent = new Intent();

sendIntent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "This is my text to send.");
sendIntent.setType("text/plain");
startActivity(sendIntent);

: iPhone - http://www.whatsapp.com/faq/en/iphone/23559013

NSURL *whatsappURL = [NSURL URLWithString:@"whatsapp://send?text=Hello%2C%20World!"];
if ([[UIApplication sharedApplication] canOpenURL: whatsappURL]) {
    [[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL: whatsappURL];
}

[OpenWhatsApp - 3rd party (unofficial) client source code]
: http://openwhatsapp.org/
- 라이센스 : GPLv2 license
- 구성 :
. UI (QML 기반)
. backend
. communication core : python library "Yowsup"
> communication between frontend and s[Whatsapp mobile messenger]erver
> authentication
> image send, receive

[Yowsup library - 3rd party (unofficial) python library]
: https://github.com/tgalal/yowsup
Wiki : https://github.com/tgalal/yowsup/wiki
Library documentation : https://github.com/tgalal/yowsup/wiki/Yowsup-Library-Documentation

- Requirements
. python 2.6+
. python-dateutil
. yousup-cli requires argparse for python < 2.7

- License : MIT

- Features
. Registration
. Text send/ receive
. Media send/receive (images, videos, audio, location, contact cards)
. Groups(create, leave, join, update picture, updating subject)
. Fetch user profile picture
. Fetch user status
. Set profile picture
. Set group icon
. Set status and others

이거 원 python을 모르니..

- Authentication

authentication mechanism은 WhatsApp 1.2 protocol (WAUTH-1)을 사용.
username (전화번호), password를 입력 하고 auth가 성공적으로 끝나면 auth_success에서 보는 것과 같이 library에 "ready" method를 전달하여 메세지를 받고 parsing하도록 해야 함.

def onAuthSuccess(username):
    print "Logged in with %s" % s
    # make a call to method ready to be able to receive messages
    methodsInterface.call("ready")


y = YowsupConnectionManager()
signalsInterface = y.getSignalsInterface()
methodsInterface = y.getMethodsInterface()
signalsInterface.registerListener("auth_success", onAuthSuccess)
methodsInterface.call("auth_login", ("username", "password"))

- Message send

Whatsapp 이 XMPP 기반 프로토콜이므로 JID를 사용하고 foramt은 전화번호@s.whatsapp.net 이다.
message 전송은 "message_send" 를 통해 전달하고 sent와 delivered의 차이점은 잘 모르겠지만 아마도 library에서 메세지를 서버에 전달했을 때와 서버에서 메세지를 수신자에게 전달 했음을 알리는 것으로 추측.. 암튼 해당 상황의 listener를 등록하여 메세지가 delivered 상태 일때 아래 sample code와 같이 library를 통해서 ack을 전달해야 한다.

def onMessageSent(jid, messageId):
    print "Message was sent successfully to %s" % jid

def onMessageDelivered(jid, messageId):
    print "Message was delivered successfully to %s" %jid
    methodsInterface.call("delivered_ack", (jid, messageId))

signalsInterface.registerListener("receipt_messageSent", onMessageSent)
signalsInterface.registerListener("receipt_messageDelivered", onMessageDelivered)

methodsInterface.call("message_send", ("identifier@s.whatsapp.net", "Hello World!"))

- Message receiving

아래 예제에서는 message 수신 시 "message_id"를 library로 전달하는 코드지만 설명에서는 "message_received" signal을 받으면 listener에서 "message_ack"를 호출해야 한다고 하고 있음. 안그러면 (xmpp 설정, 아마도) 로그인할 때 마다 메세지를 받게 된다.

methodsInterface.call("message_id", ("identifier@s.whatsapp.net", messageId)

- Keep Alive

whatsapp은 3분 마다 "ping"을 전달하여 connection을 유지하므로 listener를 등록해서 "ping" request에 대해서 response하던가 아니면 setAutoPong()를 사용하여 자동적으로 처리 하게 할 수 있다.

To Listen and respond to pings:

def onPing(pingId):
    methodsInterface.call("pong", (pingId,))

signalsInterface.registerListener("ping", onPing)

To tell Yowsup to automatically respond to pings and keep connection alive

y = YowsupConnectionManager()
y.setAutoPong(True)

[WeChat mobile messenger]

- protocol : ? (TCP based..)
WeChat API : http://developers.wechat.com/
. Install guide : http://developers.wechat.com/wechatapi/installguide

- Android, iOS 버전을 제공함.
- Overview에서 소개된 시나리오는 WeChat app을 통해 message, content를 공유하는 시나리오인 것으로 보임.
: http://developers.wechat.com/wechatapi/messages-moments#title-Images

. Sharing via WeChat Message

. Share on WeChat Moments

- 공개된 API들은 auth, message/content(image, music, video, url, file) send 정도의 API들이 있는 것으로 보이고 위 시나리오들을 충족하기 위한 minimum API들인것으로 보인다.

- Text sending

여러 예제(image, music, video, links)들이 있지만 간단한 text 전송을 살펴 보면
아래와 같이 간단하다. 아무래도 (API를 좀 더 들여봐야 겠지만) WeChat app들과 연동되게 되어 있는 것으로 보이고 그래서 API들도 제한적으로 보인다.

text를 담을 WXTextObject 생성

//Init a WXTextObject object
WXTextObject textObj = new WXTextObject();
textObj.text = text;

WXMediaMessage를 생성하여 위의 text object assign

//Init a WXMediaMessage object with WXTextObject
WXMediaMessage msg = newWXMediaMessage();
msg.mediaObject = textObj;
//the title is useless when send a text
//msg.title = "Will be ignored";
msg.description = text;

WeChat contacts들에 share 하기

//Construct a req
SendMessageToWX.Req req = new SendMessageToWX.Req();
req.transaction = buildTransaction("text");
req.message = msg;
req.scene = SendMessageToWX.Req.WXSceneSession;
//Using API to send data to WeChat
api.sendReq(req);

WeChat moments로 share 하기

//Construct a req
SendMessageToWX.Req req = new SendMessageToWX.Req();
req.transaction = buildTransaction("text");
req.message = msg;
req.scene = SendMessageToWX.Req.WXSceneTimeline;
//Using API to send data to WeChat
api.sendReq(req);
