Cannot generate code from flatpak installation

lofidevops commented 6 years ago

I've installed Tootle from Flathub. On launch it prompts for an instance domain, then a code. I know my instance domain, but what "code" should I be providing? The tooltip just says "Paste your authorization code here".

Steps to reproduce:

flatpak run com.github.bleakgrey.tootle
Next to "Instance" enter "mastodon.social"

What should happen:

Opens tab in browser
(Proceed to enter code next to "Code")

What happens instead:

Nothing. Command line traceback:

It should normally open a new tab in your web browser with the code to copy/paste, but I guess it is not working because of containerization…

Thanks for the explanation! I've upgraded (downgraded?) my query to a bug report.

I can add accounts with the flatpak (container), the problem may be something else. Do you get an error message or something? There is a bug (#74) that causes a "Cannot resolve hostname" error when a instance URL starting with https:// is entered. There is a work around for it (https://github.com/bleakgrey/tootle/issues/74#issuecomment-423594945).

I've updated my original report with steps to reproduce the issue (using the workaround mentioned, thanks!), and a traceback.

lofidevops commented 5 years ago

Received a Flatpak update today (still seems to be marked 0.1.5). No significant change in the traceback (updated above).

What command-line test can I use that matches the mechanism used to open the browser? What URL should I be accessing?

If I'm reading the source correctly, I'm looking for a command-line equivalent of Desktop.open_uri("https://mastodon.social/oauth/authorize?parameters")

The following attempts work as expected:

gio open https://mastodon.social
open https://mastodon.social

lofidevops commented 5 years ago

The following attempt works:

gio open https://mastodon.social/oauth/authorize

...but the full URL (based on the source) fails:

gio open "https://mastodon.social/oauth/authorize/?scope=read%20write%20follow&response_type=code&redirect_uri=urn:ietf:wg:oauth:2.0:oob&client_id=x"

...with an error in custom script on my side. I will look into this and see if I can reproduce on my side without the customisation.

lofidevops commented 5 years ago

This was an error in my custom script, unrelated to Tootle.
