Gajim - 2024-02-05

I want to chat with someone on gajim. I have his JID and omemo fingerprint. But I don't know how to procede. Can someone help me here?

I am a newbie.

how can I verify the user's identity?

Have you already opened a chat with the other person?

No. I couldnt send a single message (error - no devices found query in progress). He is not added in my contact.

it's empty.

> He is not added in my contact. That might be the problem. I haven't formally checked, but my experience is that OMEMO works only with contacts. 🤔️

The screenshot looks like you're using a pretty old Gajim version, but I don't think that should be the problem here.

so should I try sending the user an unencrypted message.

You should add them to your contacts, if you haven't already.

It might be they need to accept before you can see the keys, but I'm not sure about that.

ohh okay.

I just was able to send the user an unencrypted message.

and also I have sent the user the request for adding them in my contacts.

so I should wait, right

The above dialogs do not appear with Gajim

Gajim says: > Requesting Command List > An error occurred > item-not-found ✏

sch, if you want help, please post XML logs. posting PSI screenshots won't help here

Fine. I will do so. ✏

cal0pteryx, could this help? https://dpaste.org/NM9XO

nope, that's too late in the logs. please be aware that you are leaking addresses

This one is probably better https://dpaste.org/V9rb4

I know. Thank you for the notice.

sch, your log doesn't show what you sent

I will try again

The relevant line gets truncated in online pastebin

cal0pteryx, I hope this would do.

You can contact the bot yourself. It is open for all.

sch, you only ever post the answer. but not what you sent originially for that answer to be sent by the server.

The logs are running fast. I will log to a file and send it to you.

sch, use the XML console

sch, please use the XML console. you just sent me a complete log from gajim start to x. I'm not doing a needle-haystack game for you, that's your task ;)

Fine. I will filter the relevant contact.

This is easier!

ok, so your account doesnt offer adhoc commands as it looks like

ah sorry, you sent this to slixfeed@canchat.org

what is that? a user?

a group chat?

somekind of service?

JID does not answer to disco info ..

It is a bot

client

> JID does not answer to disco info .. Perhaps subscribe to it first.

Please try again.

I am working on it, so I restart it every few minutes.

It will be online now, without interference from my side.

lovetox, did you get from the bot the information you need?

sch, i have no time for testing your bot

Alright

xmpp:jdev@muc.xmpp.org?join

there you can ask question, when you developing something xmpp related

This is not about testing the bot, if that what you mean.

Psi is able to list commands published by the bot, and Gajim does not. ✏

What can I do to acquire the desired information that would lead to solving the issue with Gajim?

starting by reading the XEPs and implement your functionality accordingly

https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0050.html#retrieve

it seems your bot fails at this first step

Thank you for the information. I wll see what can be done,

if i think about it its probably that the requests needs to be directed towards a specific resource your bot has

but Gajim can only send adhoc commands to bare jids
