oh really ? I'm getting old then I will reread all the past messages to refresh my memory... sorry about that.

[kgschlosser]

NO it's cool. if you get me that info on the Offline lets see if we can work around it to get the response you want.

[Snowbird]

oh yeah... now I remember very well ! you were right !

so, to answer your question, here's what I get :
Available -> nothing at all, just an empty line when I use "Dump result to log" action
Off-line -> it's a bit different, it shows "None" in the log pane

[kgschlosser]

Perfect.. that is all i needed to know.

So if it is a None. I will have it return Offline. and if it is blank i will have it change it to Available.

that's all i needed to know. If you can run through all of the presences and make sure they return the proper thing.

[kgschlosser]

New version is up.

[Snowbird]

ok, that's perfect !!

I checked all the statuses, they all work fine now ! thanks

Now, "only" left the connection issue

Hi,

could you please add the XEP_0333 ? it will inform us when message has been read by the recipient.

More info here :
https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0333.html

and the plugin is located here :
https://dev.louiz.org/projects/slixmpp/ ... s/xep_0333

I think you need to adapt it a little bit because it was made for slixmpp, it's a fork of sleekxmpp the one you implemented in EG, more info here :
https://dev.louiz.org/projects/slixmpp

This fork seems better and still active to this day, but we didn't use it in the first place because it didn't support python < 3.4 so we were kind of stuck because EG is still in the 2.x branch.

Thank you

There is but this mechanism only works for 60 seconds. if the server is down beyond that then you should be able to restart the plugin.

What you're saying didn't work, if the server was down for less than 60 seconds then it should have reconnected on its own, this wasn't the case, and on the other hand if the server was down for more than 60 seconds then I should have been able to restart the plugin to make it reconnect, and it it didn't work either... so either I misunderstood your explanation, or there's something not working as expected.

I will add a means to keep on trying to reconnect if the plugin was already connected.

ok fine, it would be nice if you could also add 2 events, one when the connection to the server is lost, and one when the EG client has reconnected successfully, this will serve 2 purposes, we will know when the server is down, and we could add some actions when this happens.


Thanks !

Hi could you please have a look to this ? it's really annoying, and ruins the user experience, I have to reconnect manually every 2 or 3 days by relaunching EG (because that's the only way to make it work again...).

[kgschlosser]

I will I have a lot going on right now so give me a little time. (and no not like the Notification LEDs.)

[Snowbird]

lol ok, no problem I'll be patient as always
Thanks.

[Snowbird]

Hi, I hope things are getting better for you

did you get any chance to check this yet ? It's really frustrating to use something great on a daily basis that stops working all of a sudden, it really kills the user experience. I'm pretty sure you can fix this in no time since everything works perfectly !

Thank you

Hi,
I have the same problem as Snowbird. The connection to the server jabber.de gets lost about once a day. Until now I used miranda to send and receive messages with eventghost. Your plugin is much more simple to use. It would be nice, if you could solve the problem.

Hi,

many weeks have past, and yes the problem is still there, it's really killing the user experience... can't use it reliably. It's hard to say, but something that you can't count on it is almost considered as useless. I hope Kevin will find the time to fix this once and for all.

[kgschlosser]

ok I will have a fix for it in the next 24 hours.
