XMPP Connector for Arduino Ciao - Connect to an Jabber Server for send and receive messages

Open a secure shell to your board and login into Linino OS. Install it via opkg running this commands:

$ opkg update
$ opkg install ciao-connector-xmpp

If you have Arduino OS installed in your board you can use Arduino Package Manager Application. Go to Menu -> Arduino -> Arduino Package Manger and then search ciao-connector-xmpp, select it an press Install

Download the zip file of the latest release, unzip and move it via scp inside you board in the desired location. Be sure to move smtp.ciao.conf.json file into the ciao directory, eg:

$ scp ~/Downloads/ciao-connector-xmpp/xmpp.ciao.conf.json root@arduino.local:/usr/lib/python2.7/ciao/conf/
$ scp -r ~/Downloads/ciao-connector-xmpp/xmpp root@arduino.local:/root/.ciao/

Before start using the connector, set to true the enabled key in the xmpp.ciao.json.conf file. Change the commands/start values only if you installed the connector manually.
