lijab

A line oriented extensible jabber client.

http://palbo.github.com/lijab

Disclaimer

This program carries a big Works For Me™ sign, and is tested in very little configurations, so messages may be lost, misrouted, eaten, etc.

Use at your own risk! :-)

Features

  • Tab completion for most things.
  • Shiny colors!
  • Logging.
  • Roster / subscriptions handling.
  • Status / priority handling.
  • Delivery and display of chat state notifications.
  • Hooks (on_message_received, on_message_sent, et al).
  • Fairly easy to make new commands in ruby.
  • Command aliases

Requirements

  • GNU Readline (pretty sure libedit won't work right now).
  • A very ansi-compatible terminal, color is probably a good idea.

Gems

  • xmpp4r
  • file-tail
  • term-ansicolor

Debian/Ubuntu

$ sudo apt-get install ruby1.8-dev rubygems1.8 libreadline-dev libopenssl-ruby

Installation

$ sudo gem install palbo-lijab -s http://gems.github.com

Debian/Ubuntu

Also need to do

$ sudo ln -s /var/lib/gems/1.8/bin/lijab /usr/bin/lijab

Or put the gems bin dir in your path (e.g. in your .bashrc)

PATH=$PATH:/var/lib/gems/1.8/bin

Go complain to them, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libgems-ruby/+bug/145267

Known issues

Usually reconnection works well-ish, but sometimes lijab doesn't realize the connection died so you might have to restart the program.

Bugs

I make an unconscious effort to introduce bugs in all my programs, so people have something to entertain themselves with.

Report bugs in http://palbo.github.com/lijab/issues, github pull request for patches.
