Server:
You should look into Ejabberd WebSockets and Bosh feature. Do your research before choosing one. Checkout this link, it might help.

CLient:
There are many XMPP JavaScript library available i.e Strophejs, JsJac etc. Choose any one as per your requirement.

So if I will use Stropjejs, Can I save the chat history into database ? – Maneesh Rao Jan 05 '17 at 06:39
Sure you can. Do checkout mod_mam https://docs.ejabberd.im/admin/configuration/#modmam – Hare Kumar Jan 05 '17 at 06:46
Thanks for the quick reply! I have explored some documentation. – Maneesh Rao Jan 05 '17 at 07:22
But I want to know If I will implement the things from server side So Strophejs is required or not ? – Maneesh Rao Jan 05 '17 at 07:24
what are u asking about the web chat or message archiving? For web chat you need both server side & xmpp client both. Message archiving has nothing to do with xmpp client lib. So not required at all. – Hare Kumar Jan 05 '17 at 19:13
