Nov 28 03:56:25 <Herrie|SynIRC1> Seems like it is (this is from sideloaded legacy Messaging app)
Nov 28 03:57:44 <Herrie> EricBlade: Seems we currently don't deal with IM services properly yet in the Enyo 2 Messaging app. It was initially written for SMS in mind it seems. We recently did some work to get the backend stuff for pidgin/libpurple/imaccountvalidator/imlibpurpleservice working
Nov 28 03:58:03 <Herrie> Next step is some TLC for Messaging app to deal with some of these new bits it seems
Nov 28 04:25:15 <Herrie|TP> With regard to WhatsApp: It's still problematic it seems. There is whatsapp-purple as a plugin that worked till about mid this year but the developer seems to have abandoned the project. I didn't look recently to see if there's any replacements or working
Nov 28 04:25:15 <Herrie|TP>  alternatives in nodejs for example. I think it would probably be easier to get a more current alternative and plug this into node-wa or fix whatsapp-purple then to update node-wa itself due to the large number of changes at WhatsApp side with regards to
Nov 28 04:25:15 <Herrie|TP> security (specifically encryption). Seems that for now it will be a cat & mouse game. Similar to iOS jailbreaks.
Nov 28 07:42:54 <Tofe> Morning!
Nov 28 07:44:59 <Herrie> Tofe: Morning!
Nov 28 07:46:52 <Tofe> Nice work on the irc module :)
Nov 28 07:48:07 <Tofe> Herrie: iirc, all the initiatives so far for whapsapp have resulted in account bans for the users using these unofficial clients on Jolla, so the initial excitment must have fallen a bit
Nov 28 08:22:31 <Herrie|Pre3> Tofe: Well it's mainly tidying up stuff now so it works on LuneOS as well. Will have a look if I can make Messaging app a bit more flexible so it deals properly with IM instead of trying to send SMS always :P That should help our other services too :)
Nov 28 21:06:53 <Herrie> EricBlade: Seems I got it working with newer node-irc :)
Nov 28 21:07:00 <Herrie> A bit hacky for now but well it works
Nov 28 21:07:29 <Herrie|SynIRC> Test from legacy Messaging app
Nov 28 21:28:52 <Tofe> Herrie|SynIRC: \o/
Nov 29 02:58:35 <EricBlade> Herrie i didn't think it would probably be hard, but it should probably have a package.json added, with a dep listed for node-irc, rather than having a copy of node-irc in the repo
