Gajim - 2024-11-06

is anyone able to use cock.li's xmpp service with gajim? the debug log just says "unable to connect" ...

Probably better that you can't connect as that is a shitty server run by shitty people.

Kris: thats your opinion, keep it to yourself

Kris: Thanks for your opinion. Keep 'em coming.

Hi there, I have a very basic question about URL preview. I have it enabled in Gajim>Preferences, but it does not seem to work most of the time. (See screenshot). Is there a way to make it work?

I think it only works if the message body is the URL and nothing else

klafyvel: you're using a bridge to a different network. That bridge does not translate that file message to a previewable format

cal0pteryx, I think gajim can make image previews of URLs to images if this is all the body contains, or am I mistaken?

If you enable it, yes. It's disabled by default

> klafyvel: you're using a bridge to a different network. That bridge does not translate that file message to a previewable format yes indeed, I thought gajim was able to preview it nonetheless since it detects it as an URL :( ↺

Hi. Is there a script/way to extract the logs for a specific conference to plaintext, or to view them in a more convenient way? (like with being able to select more than one message for copying)

voker57: you can select several messages when you hover over a message and click the small 3-dots button on the right

What did I even trigger there?

Can reproduce it with: /me `x --` and /status online `x --`

lovetox, I think this can go wrong: https://dev.gajim.org/gajim/gajim/-/blob/gtk4/gajim/common/preview.py?ref_type=heads#L552 in line 552 you `write_file_async` with a callback on `_on_orig_write_finished` but in line 552 you already try create the preview: if the file has not been written at this point, creating the preview shoud fail.

The data is saved in the preview object, the writing to disk is not relevant I think

Oh I see

is there some kind of marker to know how far back to scroll to get to the point of last seen messages? Currently if I see that a MUC has received x messages since I was last there, I have to count back up x messages cause I'm not seeing any mark

joeDoe, there's currently an MR for it: https://dev.gajim.org/gajim/gajim/-/merge_requests/960

Merge blocked :(

meson do you have anything open for the gtk4 branch?

only my experimental local branches, why? :)

because i would like to format the code with black, but would wait if that generates big rebase problems

you can do that

I've pushed the branch for the video snapshot here: https://dev.gajim.org/mesonium/gajim/-/tree/gtk4-video-thumbnails-v2 it's really just a poc and testing but feedback is welcome to steer it to the right direction ✏

meson, cool! :)

meson your fix makes only half sense

there are situations when there is no original path

But then the line beneath could fail too?

But the path can't be none at this point

yeah you are right

i confused it, my orginal goal was not to load data from the original when we load the thumb

i feared if we guess the mime type it starts to read the original file

but it does that in Gio if we pass the data attribute

which we dont

hi just wondering if my message can be read by other users? having difficulties

yes

ok awesome

cal0pteryx: do I remember correctly that you had pllanned to restyle the image previews after the port? ✏
