Open MUC chat from command line #294

Open cweiske opened 7 years ago

I'm using Psi+ 1.0.120 with an XMPP server that has many chat rooms, but no support for bookmarks (Slack XMPP gateway). When starting Psi, I manually have to join 10 chatrooms.

I wish there was a way to join a MUC room with a specific account by executing a command line instruction.

Recently Psi had support for local bookmarks. The code was updated to keep the bookmarks on server side in all the cases. But probably we can reintroduce local-only bookmarks or invent some other way to join easily.

While command-line way sounds good for me, it has at last two flaws: 1) command line is not that cool as gui in gui application. 2) I'm a little worried about privacy/security stuff. May be should introduce some settings what is aalowed to be controlled from command line.

Of course having local bookmarks would be the best way. I only thought of command line because I could put all the join commands in a shell script and join all rooms with a single command.
