Gajim - 2024-11-18

A copr with latest Gajim https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/fed500/gajim

Main problem preventing updates is older version of python-protobuf in main repositories

> but did you change anything recently? you are using it for a long time and now this suddenly started? actually I'm back after not using it for awhile (: ↺

> when you click the chat details button in the top, and go to the settings page, does it look like that The top looks like that but the other doesnt have a check mark ↺

> what the error means you are seeing is, that either you contact has not published any keys or you have no access Well his works with others its just me and how do i publish? or get access i apologize if its a dumb question ↺

It needs a checkmark you need to tell your contact they need to share the status with you

I wonder, what client is your contact using?

Hey! Congrats on merging in the gtk4 branch. :) I was wondering if it was easy to test in debian stable or if I should avoid pulling in the latest changes because it might need some non-python dependencies that aren't available in debian stable?

Debian stable should be fine

Though old gtk4 version not tested with that

Hey all. Does anyone know if there's a script that extracts logs from logs.db SQLite database into a textual format?

You can export chat logs within gajim

I'm not aware of any scripts.

> You can export chat logs within gajim Where can I do that?

I don't see the option

Accounts dialog, not sure in which tab

Also does logs.db contain encrypted messages and their decrypted message as well?

I can't find the option so I'll just try to make an SQL command to do it until someone tells me otherwise

That will take days, I would recommend searching the option

The database contains only unencrypted messages

Where are encrypted messages stored?

I already made an SQL script that extracts messages from a specific user (or as referred to by Gajim's internals, a "remote") ✏

Or does Gajim decrypt on-the-fly?

We don't store encrypted messages

They are decrypted when we receive them

Annoying

That makes it pretty annoying for me to script a way to export logs

Also here's the script I have made. It exports a complete chatlog with a specific remote/user. ATTACH DATABASE 'logs.db' AS logs; ATTACH DATABASE 'export.db' AS export; CREATE TABLE export.account AS SELECT * FROM logs.account; CREATE TABLE export.remote AS SELECT * FROM logs.remote WHERE jid = 'jid@example.com'; CREATE TABLE export.message AS SELECT * FROM logs.message WHERE fk_remote_pk IN (SELECT pk FROM export.remote);

But I just found out that Export Chat History is in the Privacy settings

So I will try using that instead

Does the latest release use GTK Version: 3.24.43?

I use Flatpak

Is there a general chat about XMPP\Jabber?

Sally: the about window should show which gtk version is used

hannibal: Yes, when I go to about, it shows this version. But I thought it should be gtk4

Sally: a gtk4 version of gajim has not been released yet

ffofeao: you can search via Gajim > Start chat > globe button

cal0pteryx: Okay, my mistake then

Thank you so much cal0pteryx

opening the "start / join chat" window takes a LOT of time, is that known?

a couple seconds longer than it was in gtk3 version of gajim

for me its near instant

maybe run with debug output, maybe there is a slow database query?

we add just the roster contacts and your groupchats

would you say you have many of them?

or maybe many accounts?

lovetox, also there's an issue with file d&d

if the d&d failed, the text "drop your files here" persists until gajim restarted

even after a succeeded attempt

to reporduce, try dropping some files which gajim does not have access to

> or maybe many accounts? 1 account, not so many contacts ↺

it was slow on gtk3, but on gtk4 it's really bad

2024-11-18T23:23:18 (D) gajim.gtk.widgets Load Window: StartChatDialog https://conference.gajim.org:5281/pastebin/b78d080c-16fe-4085-8542-da11367e4758

sorry it turned out a bit too long, I expected the server to make a paste of it

the server did

you just dont see it

ok

also the @ sign action makes it really hard to use the @ symbol it anything but what gajim uses it for

and the sorting is off

what do you want to use the @ for?

if you write a email or jid it does not trigger the dialog

I tried to insert a nickname in the middle of the message

yeah thats what the @ is for? how was it hard?

there might be reasons where @ should be added, for example when writing code snippets directly in the chat

mrdoctorwho, you can always press "right arrow" to close the popover

I think the previous method when the nick was added/completed with the tab button is something the people around xmpp are used for

cal0pteryx, this is inconvenient, I have to do additonal button press

speaking of sorting being off

https://drop.helldev.net/a3c26db8-cf32-4d19-9f64-3d367568404d/72083bda-9551-40fd-9f59-678b53e4a829.png

it suggests another user even though I've been writing cal0pteryx, I didn't press the down button

mrdoctorwho, works for me

it's not always present

the logic checks for substring

point is: when do you use @ in a sentence other than typing an address or @-mentioning somebody? you can use right arrow or just continue typing

@ is not the way to mention somebody in xmpp

now instead of pressing tab to answer the previous user I have to press @ and write the nickname

this discussion goes into the wrong direction

please compare "in xmpp" to "in chat" ✏

mrdoctorwho, please show an example where typing @ hinders you to do whatever you want to type

i dont see how any of your examples create a problem

lovetox, it creates a problem when writing code snippets, for example that use decorators in python or annotations in java, there might be other reasons to use that symbol in the chat I can't think of right now, but the new functionality makes me avoid it, I believe I won't be the only one complaining

this is still not an example? are you saying you cant use the @ symbol?

@decorator

I'll have to press an additional button to close the nick choosnig popup, it's inconvenient

i dont have to press a button

no you don't, just continue typing

the only exception that i can think of is, that you want to send a string @something that by accident also matches the nickname of someone

thats the only case where you would need to "escape" your input, and close the popup

what i will think about, if we should make the completion popup only trigger after at least 1 or 2 chars

this will reduce it poping up more

about the slow start chat problem, im at a loss it seems to take 3 seconds just to get to the muc loading part

i will add more debug logging, maybe this will help

copying "link address" of a conference results in "about:ambiguous-address?conference-address"

text input box is not always focused after choosing a chat in the workspace ✏

> copying "link address" of a conference results in "about:ambiguous-address?conference-address" where exaclty do you copy? ↺

somebody sent a conference address, e.g. gajim@conference.gajim.org

> text input box is not always focused after choosing a chat in the workspace yes, that's not fixed yet. in the meantime, pressing space will focus the input ↺

ah thanks, can reproduce it

I press rmb on it, then "copy link address" and it results in the above text copied into the clipboard

strange

ah, that's actually coming from Gajim's URI parsing code. I'm not familiar with that

I don't know if gajim is interested in potential grants but this exists https://www.futo.org/grants/

lovetox pushed 1 commits to branch gajim/master new: StartChat: Improve loading time and add debug logging - https://dev.gajim.org/gajim/gajim/-/commit/3e2331acb01ad0a23547fc174f408cb35ba24d9a

^ mrdoctorwho, try with this commit, it should load now faster and show more debug output

ok

I wouldn't say it became any faster

now it's much faster indeed

thanks lovetox

hm this copy link adress menu entry is actually not our menu, its some new gtk menu entry

some weird parsing issue, when a jid is in the middle of a message, it has different menu entries

seems to be a gtk bug
