Il y a bien longtemps que je ne vous avez pas présenté une application en mode texte ! Voici donc Poezio, un client de messagerie instantanée utilisant le protocole XMPP.
L’utilisation de cette application est assez similaire à Irssi ou encore Weechat : On aime ou on déteste, personnellement j’adore ! C’est simple, léger et efficace, Poezio ne fait qu’une chose mais la fait bien.
Le but premier de ce client est de permettre à l’utilisateur de se connecter rapidement au réseau sans avoir besoin d’effectuer une création de compte. Pour faire simple, on lance l’application puis on rejoint les divers salons…
Bien évidement, si vous possédez un compte Jabber, il est tout à fait possible de l’utiliser afin de récupérer votre liste de contacts : Il suffit d’effectuer une petite modification dans le fichier de configuration et le tour est joué !

Installation :
Très simple, un petit coup de yaourt sera suffisant :
$ yaourt -S poezio
Pour lancer le client :
$ poezio
Configuration :
La configuration de Poezio se fait via le fichier poezio.cfg. Il a l’avantage d’être allègrement commenté ce qui facilite grandement sa compréhension. Comme exemple, je vous livre ici mon fichier qui me permet de me connecter à mon compte Jabber ainsi qu’à différents salons :
$ vim ~/.config/poezio/poezio.cfg
# This is the default config for the XMPP client Poezio. # Comments should be on their own line and NOT at the end # of a meaningful line. [Poezio] # the server. Make sure the server you're using accepts anonymous authentification #server = jabber.org # the port you'll use to connect port = 5222 # the resource you will use # If it's empty, your resource will be chosen (most likely randomly) by the server # It is not recommended to use a resource that is easy to guess, because it can lead # to presence leak. resource = ArchDesktop # the nick you will use when joining a room with no associated nick # If this is empty, the $USER environnement variable will be used default_nick = weedfast # Jabber identifiant. Specify it only if you want to connect using an existing # account on a server. This is optional and useful only for some features, # like room administration, nickname registration. # The 'server' option will be ignored if you specify a JID (Jabber identifiant) # It should be in the form nickname@server.tld jid = weedfast@jabber.org # A password is needed only if you specified a jid.

Encore une application parfaite pour un tiling manager !

Tu as mal lu l’explication sur le alternative nickname, il faut mettre juste « _ » ou ton pseudo sera weedfastweedfast_
Sinon poezio parvient pas à se connecter chez moi, je me demande s’il utilise bien la variable port quand un jid est spécifié.

@MCMic : Merci pour l’astuce ! Pour information je n’ai pas rencontré les problèmes que tu cites.
29 mai 2011 à 18:51
Oui, j’avais remarqué ça, pour le truc du alternative nick, mais j’ai oublié de te le dire :p
MCMic, pour ton problème, ça m’intéresse, n’hésite pas à passer sur le salon poezio@kikoo.louiz.org quand tu veux pour le décrire plus précisément.
(https://jappix.com/?r=poezio@kikoo.louiz.org si tu n’as pas de client)
Sinon, poezio c’est cool. Et chouette article.

@louiz’ : Excellent travail dans tout les cas !

qu’a t’il de plus que mcabber ?
5 juin 2011 à 19:06
lepetit:
Une liste des participants sur la droite, dans les salons de discussions, les chatstates dans les salons, par exemple, /recolor, des jolies couleurs, etc
Mais le mieux est de le tester par toi-même. Poezio convient mieux à certaines personnes, mais il peut également lui manquer certaines fonctionnalités que certains pourraient considérer comme indispensables…
(et dans ce cas, n’hésite pas à faire un ticket sur le bug tracker pour demander cette fonctionnalité :p).
C’est une question de goûts, moi, par exemple, je ne supporte pas mcabber, pourtant d’autres l’aiment bien.
