Upstream development discontinued in favor of weechat-matrix-rs-git.

Project Status: weechat-matrix is stable and quite usable as a daily driver. It already supports large parts of the Matrix protocol, including end-to-end encryption (though some features like cross-signing and session unwedging are unimplemented).

However, due to some inherent limitations of Weechat scripts, development has moved to weechat-matrix-rs, a Weechat plugin written in Rust. As such, weechat-matrix is in maintenance mode and will likely not be receiving substantial new features. PRs are still accepted and welcome. https://github.com/poljar/weechat-matrix

(I've noticed there is a bug in this that requires python310 from AUR to workaround https://github.com/poljar/weechat-matrix/issues/248 )

However I think the package might want to support upstream development by ~~~switching to the rust version which supersedes the python version.~~~ https://github.com/poljar/weechat-matrix-rs

Looks like a package already exists, please add your votes -- https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/weechat-matrix-rs-git/

Can you also install the scripts in https://github.com/poljar/weechat-matrix/tree/master/contrib ?

Slash commented on 2019-10-12 23:36 (UTC)

@kureta - I added an .install file with similar output.

Can you echo the instructions in your pinned comment at the end of install?

Slash commented on 2019-09-14 17:40 (UTC)

@diabonas - Thanks for researching that, I updated the PKGBUILD.

Weechat 2.6 has been released, which uses Python 3 instead of Python 2, so the dependencies of this package need to change: all python2- packages should be replaced by their python- variants, and python2-typing can be removed completely.

Also I don't see the need for cython, python-h11, python-h2, python-jsonschema, python-olm, python-peewee and python-unpaddedbase64 upstream (the python- packages are dependencies of python-nio and therefore already covered). On the other hand, a dependency on python-aiohttp has been added recently. To sum up, I think the dependencies should now be

depends=('python-aiohttp' 'python-atomicwrites' 'python-attrs' 'python-future' 'python-logbook'
         'python-nio' 'python-pygments' 'python-pyopenssl' 'python-webcolors')

I reported the python2 "problem".

I cant seem to push to aur for the life of me, and since i used your pkgbuild slightly for the reference and it isnt much added, heres a dual package build i made for this plugin, using the weechat-python3 version my self https://github.com/quietok/python-weechat-matrix-git-pkgbuild welcome to poach that Slash/maintainer

Slash commented on 2019-05-25 18:24 (UTC)

@diabonas Thanks, I must have missed that. I updated the dependency.

diabonas commented on 2019-05-25 09:35 (UTC)

Nice to see this on the AUR! Could you depend on python2-nio instead of python2-matrix-nio, please? The former is maintained directly by the upstream maintainer and has the correct dependencies, while the latter doesn't have any dependencies at all (and is currently outdated).

In order to use this plugin after installation, you'll need to run the following command in weechat:

/script load weechat-matrix.py

Alternatively, if you want the script to be loaded on start-up automatically, you'll need to symlink it into your autoload folder:

$ ln -s /usr/share/weechat/python/weechat-matrix.py -t ~/.weechat/python/autoload/

The location of the script changed in April 2020 and installation recommendations changed in May 2020, so remove any extra matrix-related symlinks you have in your ~/.weechat/python/ and ~/.weechat/python/autoload/ folders to avoid issues. You only need the autoload symlink going forward.
