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.

Tox-WeeChat is compliant with all "Required" points in the Tox Client Standard.

Build Status

Features

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

Installation

Tox-WeeChat requires WeeChat (tested with version 2.3) and TokTok c-toxcore (tested with version 0.2.8). 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=~/.weechat/plugins ..
$ make install

This installs the plugin binary tox.so to the recommended location ~/.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 ~/.weechat/tox/ by default.
  • Load your profile and connect to the Tox network with /tox load <profile name>.
  • Run /help -listfull tox to get a list of all available commands, and /set tox.* for a list of options.

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).
