Tox-WeeChat

Tox-WeeChat is a Tox protocol plugin for WeeChat. It is functional, but lacks certain features that might be expected of a full-fledged Tox client. Originally from the abandonned https://github.com/haavard/tox-weechat

Tox-WeeChat is compliant with all "Required" points in the Tox Client Standard. There is no support for NGC groups.

Features

One-to-one chats
Conference chats (text only)
Proxy support
Multiple profiles
Encrypted save files
File transfer

No NGC groups yet.

Installation

Tox-WeeChat requires WeeChat (tested with version 4.1.2) and TokTok c-toxcore (tested with version 0.2.18). CMake 2.8.12 or newer is also required to build.

Installation is fairly simple; after getting the source code, compile and install using CMake:

$ mkdir build && cd build
$ cmake -DPLUGIN_PATH=~/.cache/weechat/plugins ..
$ make install

This installs the plugin binary tox.so to the recommended location ~/.cache/weechat/plugins. The default location is /usr/local/lib/weechat/plugins.

If WeeChat or toxcore are installed in a non-standard location, you can try specifying CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH to find them; see .travis.yml for an example.

Usage

If the plugin does not load automatically, load it with /plugin load tox. You may have to specify the full path to the plugin binary if you installed it to a non-standard location.
Create a new profile with /tox create <profile name>. The data file is stored in ~/.cache/weechat/tox/ by default.
Load your profile and connect to the Tox network with /tox load <profile name> (see also /bootstrap, /conf, /friend, /invite, /me, /msg, /myid, /name, /names, /nospam, /part, /send, /status, /statusmsg, /topic, /tox).
Run /help -listfull tox to get a list of all available commands, and /set tox.* for a list of options, including proxies.

Common issues

Long Tox names messing up WeeChat layout

Tox allows names up to 128 bytes long. To prevent long names from taking all your screen space, you can set the following options in WeeChat:

weechat.bar.nicklist.size_max
weechat.look.prefix_align_max
buffers.look.name_size_max (if using buffers.pl)

Tox won't connect through my proxy

Make sure the proxy type, address and port is correct, and that UDP is disabled (/set tox.profile.*.udp) and it is required to disable IPv6 (/set tox.profile.*.ipv6).
