Description
A weechat plugin in C/++ to extend the chat client to
support XMPP and a currently minimal but ideally maximal
set of XEPs.
My priority here is to have an android-available XMPP client
that hides as little as possible from the user. To use this with
android, set up a relay (/relay
) and see weechat-android.
I am rewriting this in C++, slowly...
-
Usage
-
Start with =/account add=, use =/help account= for instructions.
-
Use =/account connect = with the name set at
add-time.
-
Installing
Place xmpp.so in the appropriate place for weechat plugins.
-
Dependencies
- libstrophe (dynamic, dependency)
- libxml2 (dynamic, dependency)
- lmdb (dynamic, dependency)
- libomemo-c (libsignal-protocol-c) (dynamic, dependency)
- gpgme (dynamic, dependency)
- libfmt (dynamic, dependency)
- g++ (build, >= GCC12)
- bison (build)
- flex (build)
- doctest (test)
- weechat (>= v3.0)
-
Building
+begin_src sh
git clone git://github.com/bqv/weechat-xmpp.git
cd weechat-xmpp
git submodule update --init --recursive
make
make install
+end_src
Do NOT run make install as root, it installs the plugin to your
local weechat plugins directory
-
Development
I use emacs for development of this, although I am also a fan of vim.
My debug build process involves static analysis with clang and cppcheck,
and dynamic analysis with address-sanitizer and leak-sanitizer.
My debug evaluation process involves gdb/mi run with the arguments
=-ex "handle SIGPIPE nostop noprint pass" --args weechat -a 2>asan.log=
since part of weechat and it's default plugins use SIGPIPE as control.
I don't expect any, but I have no real requests for style of pull requests
besides a wish that you keep vaguely to the indentation style I use.
