Signal notifications are broken

Moving to WhisperSystem's lisignal library directly here:

@lukeswitz @archie94 if you have any interest here to pitch on this, happy to have some help!

Once we get this working, going to push out an official 0.3 beta/release.

[archie94]

Kindly allow me some time. Will get back on this.

I've gotten pieces of it done, but need to figure out how to implement the Signal protocol store.

Lot of people waiting for having the app back online. Thx so much! Looking forward to be able to use it again!

[archie94]

So the library in itself seems deprecated and out of date. https://github.com/signalapp/libsignal-service-java/issues/83

And its replacement seems to be embedded inside the main android app repository. One idea comes to my mind, lets see if that works for us.

Thanks, I was also stuck on the legacy implementation, both ideological and technical, so I appreciate your help @archie94 🤝

There is also the signald.org project, though that may be building on the out of data libsignal-service-java.

Maybe we should extract libsignal from the Signal Android repo?

Actually we should use this: https://github.com/signalapp/libsignal-client

Yeah i was thinking along similar lines ...

But this looks better. :+1:

Hello there !

I was looking forward to use Signal notifications, has there been any progress on this issue ?

[archie94]

Hello,

Exploring https://github.com/signalapp/libsignal-client but documentation is not very clear and it seems we need to implement security layers on top of the basic messaging functionality to get it working. This is significant task at the moment which will take time from my end. Will update from my side as I have anything significant.

I came across this project and was reminded of the issues with haven/signal. https://github.com/AsamK/signal-cli Appears to be using a forked version of libsignal-service-java thats updated quite regularly.

Is this of any help?

Hi, I would just like to state that this issue still persists. Hopefully you will be able to fix this.

I found a few ways to make it work. Problem is, rest of the app is in need of serious love. In communication with Google now should we want SMS as a fallback.
