Jami client for terminal

Jami-Cli

Jami client for terminal.

Conversation Welcome

Usage

This is a jami client done in Rust based on Gurk. I did it to test swarm chat while developping this feature for Jami, so it's a client that will support Swarm chat, but will not support old conversations API. This feature doesn't exists yet in Jami, so just a few people will be able to use this client, but it can be modified for your needs and has account management. But if still interested, this is the current Epic related: https://git.jami.net/groups/savoirfairelinux/-/boards?scope=all&utf8=%E2%9C%93&state=opened&milestone_title=Swarm-chat

To run this project you will need:

  • The Jami daemon (cf https://jami.net) and install Jami. (Current status: you will need this stack: https://review.jami.net/q/topic:%22swarm%22+(status:open%20OR%20status:merged)) as the swarm feature is not available for now. This instructions can be useful (https://git.jami.net/savoirfairelinux/ring-project/wikis/technical/Build-instructions)
  • Install libdbus
  • cargo install jami-cli
  • Run dring
  • Run jami-cli
  • Enjoy!
