New feature: send/attach images to conversations

Open caiobegotti opened this issue 9 years ago • 5 comments

It would be nice to have a way to send/attach images in Hangouts chats, like we normally do with the native client. Or is it already supported, somehow, through a hack?

Not supported yet.

However, hangish has a working implementation: https://github.com/rogora/hangish/blob/master/client.cpp#L686

It seems to be already implemented in this Hangups fork: https://github.com/ShaunOfTheLive/hangups

Thanks for that info @xmikos! Any idea if this is mergeable any time soon, @tdryer?

I can confirm that the ShaunOfTheLife/hangups fork works well with my nylonee/hangupsbot image uploading test. The only issue I see is that text segments that are passed in alongside the imageID are ignored.

The API for this is implemented now: https://github.com/tdryer/hangups/pull/89. Just missing a proper user interface.
