Lurch4Adium

Flattr this

An Xtra for Adium to support OMEMO. This is just a packaging effort. All credit goes to Richard Bayerle gkdr for writing the actual functionality.

This project packages gkdr's lurch and carbons plugins for Pidgin/libpurple as an Adium Xtra, so we can finaly have low-friction multi-device federated conversations.

Installation

You can either build the Xtra yourself (see below), or download a pre-built version it from the l4a-releases, and extract it. Once done, you can open the Xtra, which will be sent to Adium for installation.

open build/Release/Lurch4Adium.AdiumLibpurplePlugin

(The path shown assumes you built the Xtra.)

You then need to restart Adium, and make sure this new Plugin is enabled in the Xtras manager.

Usage

You should be able to enable carbons for a Jabber account by entering

/carbons on

in any chat window to enable carbons for this account.

You should similarly be able to interact with lurch and enable OMEMO through the lurch command. See

/lurch help

for more details.

On Using Libpurple Plugins in Adium

The plugin boilerplate comes from the Adium Tutorial adium-plugin-tutorial, which still seems to be relevant as of Sierra (10.12.4)/Xcode 8.3.2.

One notable difference, is, however, that libpurple plugins need to use the AdiumLibpurplePlugin wrapper extension, so the installLibpurplePlugin and loadLibpurplePlugin methods of the AILibpurplePlugin class are called.

Building

Build Requirements

The XCode GUI tools are needed. You can get them from the AppStore xcode-appstore after having sold your soul and given banking details. Apart from that, it's free-as-in-beer.

You then need to agree to lease out your first born as a receptacle for Steve Jobs' soul. This is done as follows.

sudo xcodebuild -license

Building

make

Will fetch the necessary third-party sources, and build them.
