Zotonic presence module

Simple presence indicators for use on pages.

How to use

Add these javascripts to your lib tag:

{% lib
    "js/modules/z.presence.js"
    "js/modules/z.presenceview.js"
%}

To indicate presence at a location add this to your page:

<span class="do_presence" data-presence-where="foo"></span>

These attributes could be added to any element.

To show the names of who is present at a page, including their current active status:

<span class="do_presenceview" data-presence-where="foo"></span>

This could also be combined:

<span class="do_presence do_presenceview" data-presence-where="foo"></span>

The presence widget broadcasts the current user's status to the topic:

bridge/origin/presence/status/:where

The payload is:

{
    "user_id": 1234,
    "unique_id": "fdytwd5wydt76w",
    "where": "foo",
    "status": 1
}

The status is one of:

const STATUS_GONE    = 0;
const STATUS_AWAY    = 1;
const STATUS_IDLE    = 2;
const STATUS_PRESENT = 3;
const STATUS_ACTIVE  = 4;

A user is active if they were typing, scrolling or clicking in the last 10 seconds.

A user is present if they were active less than 60 seconds ago.

A user is idle when they were not active in the last 60 seconds or if the window lost focus.

A user is away if the window is frozen or hidden or if they were not active for more than 300 seconds.

A user is gone if the window is closed or the element is removed.

The status is published on the server topic every status change or 7 seconds.

The presenceview displays a list of usernames. It uses the template _presence_view.tpl to render the name of the user.

The users are sorted in active status order, most recently active first.

They are displayed wrapped in <span class="label">...</span> elements with the following labels:
