Status: XMPP for power users and digital masochists
Location: http://github.com/bqv/weechat-xmpp
Version: 0.2.1
Disclaimer: I'm lazy and unashamedly clinically insane

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

  1. Start with /account add, use /help account for instructions.
  2. Use /account connect <account-name> 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)
  • bison (build)
  • flex (build)
  • weechat (>= v3.0)

Building

git clone git://github.com/bqv/weechat-xmpp.git
cd weechat-xmpp
git submodule update --init --recursive
make
make install

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.
