Expose a way to retrieve a user profile avatar pic

Open idifrancesco opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

I easily wrote by myself a new JsonRpcLocalCommand calling: https://github.com/AsamK/signal-cli/blob/4ffb93129d4db8327c37f9383b55d5cd5b2f3ac9/lib/src/main/java/org/asamk/signal/manager/ManagerImpl.java#L319 to achieve the goal in the title. However it could be useful that the feature be supported by developers.

I've extended the listContacts command to include more profile information in json mode. The avatar is not included there, but is just stored in the signal-cli config directory (avatars/profile-NUMBER).

In json-rpc mode would you just need the filename to the avatar or the actual avatar image in base64 encoding?

Just filename would be great.

Calling listContacts with any recipient then retrieving the avatar file into avatars/profile-NUMBER directory is what i need. Thanks.
