Bug 133914 – mod_jabber.py: Jabber notification for portage

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Lars Strojny 2006-05-20 18:56:53 UTC]

I've wrote a jabber notification module for the new notification framework of portage. It depends on xmpppy (http://xmpppy.sourceforge.net). Maybe it makes sense to introduce a USE-flag jabber or something for portage, not to force the user to install the library. 

How to use:
1.) Install >=sys-apps/portage-2.1
2.) Copy the file mod_jabber.py to /usr/lib/portage/pym/elog_modules/mod_jabber.py
3.) Edit /etc/make.conf and add the following options:
    PORTAGE_ELOG_SYSTEM="jabber"
    PORTAGE_ELOG_JABBERFROM="[e-mail]:password"
    PORTAGE_ELOG_JABBERTO="[e-mail] [e-mail] [e-mail]"

Module for gentoo portage to send notification via jabber

Not to forget: install dev-python/xmpppy

[Comment 3 Lars Strojny 2006-05-20 19:18:18 UTC]

Please use the version from BreakMyGentoo's SVN. My last ebuild there is broken and not up-to-date.
By the way: what's on with it, can we get http://svn.breakmygentoo.net/bmg-main/net-im/ejabberd/ejabberd-1.1.1.ebuild to portage?

[Comment 4 Lars Strojny 2006-05-20 19:20:12 UTC]

Oh, damn. False bugreport. Sorry.

[Comment 5 solar (RETIRED) 2006-05-20 19:56:56 UTC]

Any reason this needs to be included in portage vs being make a unique ebuild 
that installs itself to the correct dir and has the correct deps?

+1. jabber is a bad dependency for portage. Please, attach a separate ebuild for this.

Here we are: http://svn.breakmygentoo.net/bmg-main/app-portage/portage-mod_jabber/

Can't get it to work here, it properly creates the message object but I never see anything on my jabber client, tried with two different accounts (on different server) with all from/to combinations (and with gaim they work just fine).
Only suspicious thing I see is this warning (though merging dnspython didn't help either):
"Could not load one of the supported DNS libraries (dnspython or pydns). SRV records will not be queried and you may need to set custom hostname/port for some servers to be accessible."

Maybe I'm missing something?

[Comment 9 Lars Strojny 2006-05-23 08:41:35 UTC]

Oh, sorry. There is a missing dependency in the ebuild. You should install dnspython.

[Comment 10 Marius Mauch (RETIRED) 2006-05-24 02:45:12 UTC]

As I said, even with dnspython installed it didn't work work for me. Maybe I'll check if there is any related network traffic in or out when I have some time.

As recommended: installing as a module. Maybe it would be worth spending a jabber ebuild for sys-apps/portage which adds this as a PDEPEND.

Installing README file.

Thanks to Hanno for adding this to portage. But why don't you want to close the bug?

[Comment 14 Hanno Böck 2006-09-11 05:06:35 UTC]

done

[Comment 15 cJ 2007-08-08 01:32:48 UTC]

The line 
mymessage = xmpp.protocol.Message(myto, fulltext, "message", mysubject)
has to be modified in 
mymessage = xmpp.protocol.Message(myto, fulltext, "normal", mysubject)
in order to enable offline messages reception.
