XMPP Plus

[Snowbird]

ok, thanks mate.
it would be fantastic if you could fix it, the plugin would be 100% reliable !
As always, if you want me to test anything just let me know.

Hi Kevin,

Just to let you know that since your last update of the plugin (a couple of months ago), the XEP 184 (Receipt Request plugin) doesn't work anymore

Code: Select all

03/07  08:15:03         Error in Action: "XMPP Plus v1.2.6: Send Message: [email protected]"

I know you have spent lots of time on this already, and I thank you for that. As you know the connection drop problem is still there, when the internet connection goes down I have to restart EG to make it work again, not very user friendly. Maybe the only way to fix this is to try a completely new XMPP library, I have found 2 of them but unfortunately they are made for Python 3.x

this one is a fork of sleekxmpp, the one you implemented in EG, more info here :
https://lab.louiz.org/poezio/slixmpp

and this one is a completely different one :
https://github.com/horazont/aioxmpp

Both of them are still active to this day (latest update made a few months ago), is there a way to start over with one of those ? I know the big concern is the Python version in EG. Do you have any beta of EG with Python 3.x that would help on this matter ? even with basic functionality.

I really do like the XMPP plugin, I use it intensively everyday with my smartphone to send commands to EG when I'm away from home. That's the only plugin that allows me to communicate easily with EG (sending basic texts that translate to action), I don't need to make fancy webpages with buttons to do this or that, I simply chat with my EG That's really cool when you get the hang of it.

If you could reconsider my request it would be much appreciated.
Thank you.

the aoixmpp is python 3 only. and the issue with python 3 is not so much EG. It is plugin compatibility. specifically with wxPython that is the component that is a real booger.

[Snowbird]

ok, well I will have to live with it I guess.

and regarding the error I mentioned above, do you have an idea ?

[kgschlosser]

ok sir I wanted to show you this... do not get too excited it is still a ways off.

https://github.com/kdschlosser/EventGho ... ew_version.

be sure to read the readme file if you want to compile and run it. it will tell you what you need to have installed to do it.

I have read and installed everything, and here's the error I get when trying to compile :

Code: Select all

PS C:\Users\Snowbird\Downloads\EventGhost-x64-Python3.5-master> C:\Users\Snowbird\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Stackless35\python setup.py build_exe

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

I went there and installed InnoSetup :

but got the same error...
what should I do ?

[kgschlosser]

its a work in progress. I thought you might want to know that I am working on getting EG upgraded to python 3.

[Snowbird]

oh ok good to know then !
I hope it will see the daylight soon

Hi Kevin,

it's me again

Just to tell, that I can no longer connect to the 404.city server :
https://404.city

I'm getting the following error :

XMPPPlus.xmpp.404.city:5222.SocketError '[Errno 9] Bad file descriptor'
[email protected]

could you please create an account on their website (it will take you 5 seconds), then try the plugin with the newly created account, and see why it's doing that ?

I think they have recently upgraded their server, and since then I can not connect anymore

Thanks
