I use many different type of services at home including HTTP, XMPP, as well as dRB. The problem I currently have is that I don't have a service for transforming an HTTP request into an XMPP request, which I need to do if I want to talk to my XMMP bots as conveniently as possible.
I do have an RSF job which executes as TCP server with an XMPP bot feeding off the requests from within the loop however things have changed now. I've discovered dRB is more efficient than TCP in terms of response time to process a request, as well as being more helpful when debugging.
Here's what I need my switchboard service to do:
I haven't worked out the details yet but I believe the XMPP bot could be run as a kind of service running from within the dRB server which is called from an HTTP web server.
It would look like this HTTP -> dRB -> XMPP
