Gajim - 2023-12-05

Is there some "automatically reconnect" setting on Gajim? It keeps disconnecting me after X time and then I need to close/reopen it to connect again

Eduard: Not that I know of. As far as I know, gajim will try to reconnect any time it knows it's disconnected, but sometimes it doesn't know, or doesn't reconnect for some reason.

fjklp, thanks. It seems that Gajim is unaware of the disconnections here and just says "You are not connected currently to this room" but nothing else

I wonder which checks does Gajim do to check the connection status

Sorry. Please ignore my recent message.

Gajim is fine. Role is moderator, participant Affiliation is admin, member, owner.

Eduard, happen to me too when I sent my computer to sleep and wake it up in another network/environment. Especially when the new environment fillter out xmpp ports and I need to connect via alternative method (websocket). The responsible code resides probably in nbxmpp lib…

Hello everyone

I want to know if there is a bridge between discord and xmpp? I want to see the messages of a discord channel in Gajim. Is it possible?

I found some pages, but the instructions went over my head

Some of them needs linux or docker

I am using windows

tomchaplin: looks like matterbridge has windows builds https://github.com/42wim/matterbridge/

Oh I was wondering if I can use Gajim to do that

tomchaplin: not that I am aware of; but have a chat with the matterbridge folk, there may be a public bridge you could use

Oh ok, thanks. I will try the matterbridge in sometime

xmpp room is on that page

Ah i have to use terminal to setup and configure in windows too, its not an installation software. i will play with it,

Normally I dont use discord, but found one important discord room for my work, so just for that.

tomchaplin: if you are simply wanting to _access_ a discord room using Gajim, a public gateway running something like https://sr.ht/~nicoco/slidge/ may be what you are after xmpp:slidge@conference.nicoco.fr?join

oh, i am stuck configuring the discord bot now, thanks for your help 222m5. I will check it right now.

by _access_ you mean only reading the posts or comments?

Oh it says Group chat support is experimental. I will still give it a try if I can

I joined the slidge MUC for help

coz, I am not sure how to set it up on windows or if i can using pypi

iirc matterbridge is for bridging rooms, whereas slidge is a gateway (like biboumi for irc) … someone please correct me if I've got that wrong ;) ✏

222m5, matterbridge is used to bridge multiple different services

it was designed for mattermost, but it works for tons of different platforms

Cyrille, I see. That's kinda annoying but well, at least don't happens frequently

polarian: yh, it only mirrors rooms between im protocols though, correct? tbh, I think tomchaplin is looking for a gateway he can utilise… but I've misread & complicated things ;)

> polarian: yh, it only mirrors rooms between im protocols though, correct? tbh, I think tomchaplin is looking for a gateway he can utilise… but I've misread & complicated things ;) yes afaik ↺

I am confused, I am stuck in it for the past few hours.

Theres an error setting up the Slidge, but i think it is what I was looking sure. But not completely sure

tomchaplin: iiuc, wait for someone that can recommend a gateway instance that you can use

Yeah, I am in talk with Slidge guys, Movim.eu guys and here too! lol

I just wanna say thank you for all your help

np, see what cal0pteryx can suggest

sure

Sorry, no transport experience here ;)

Ah ok.

What is channel_name in xmpp?

I prefer "name of public chat room".

...because it's self explaining.

Hi, my jmp.chat number rang on gajim on my computer through MX Linux KDE, but it does not ring on my current installation of gajim in KDE Neon. Could you please suggest anything I could try to get a call to ring on my computer?
