# Weechat & Matrix + Encryption
|
||||
# Moved
|
||||
|
||||
This repository contains helpful information on how to setup Weechat as a Matrix
|
||||
client with end-to-end encryption support.
|
||||
|
||||
## TL;DR
|
||||
|
||||
Run `git clone
|
||||
https://git.faceless.lytedev.io/lytedev/weechat-matrix-encryption-guide.git
|
||||
/tmp/wmeg && /tmp/wmeg/easy-script.bash` and skip to the end.
|
||||
|
||||
## Guide
|
||||
|
||||
There's a new-fangled [`weechat-matrix`][weechat-matrix] Python library that
|
||||
supports end-to-end encryption. This guide will walk you through what is
|
||||
currently a semi-annoying setup, as the entire project is still under heavy
|
||||
development.
|
||||
|
||||
### Python Versions
|
||||
|
||||
We need to establish which version of Python your WeeChat is using. You can find
|
||||
this out in WeeChat with `/python version`. In my case, my `python` binary is
|
||||
3.7.2 (`python -V`) while my WeeChat Python version is 2.7.15.
|
||||
|
||||
### Dependencies
|
||||
|
||||
There are a number of dependencies we can go ahead and start grabbing. The main
|
||||
repository lists a number of them in the `README`, so we will grab those. We
|
||||
also need to install `libolm` however you would do that for your environment.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
sudo pip2 install pyOpenSSL typing webcolors future atomicwrites attrs logbook pygments
|
||||
pacaur -S libolm # or for Ubuntu (and maybe Debian?): sudo apt-get install libolm-dev
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Notice that we left out the [`matrix-nio`][matrix-nio] dependency. It's not in
|
||||
PyPi, so we can't just `pip2 install matrix-nio` (yet!) and PyPi's `nio` package
|
||||
is something probably unrelated, so we'll need to install it manually.
|
||||
|
||||
### `matrix-nio`
|
||||
|
||||
Let's go ahead and clone down the repository and get ready to do some stuff:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
git clone https://github.com/poljar/matrix-nio.git
|
||||
cd matrix-nio
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If you're looking around, documentation seems a bit sparse on how to do this,
|
||||
but it has a mostly normal manual Python package installation workflow.
|
||||
|
||||
First, lets grab all the dependencies specific to the `matrix-nio` package:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
sudo pip2 install -r ./rtd-requirements.txt
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
And now we expect to be able to install it:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
sudo python2 ./setup.py install
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
But you'll see the install script pauses for a second before we get an odd
|
||||
error:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Processing dependencies for matrix-nio==0.1
|
||||
Searching for python-olm@ git+https://github.com/poljar/python-olm.git@master#egg=python-olm-0
|
||||
Reading https://pypi.org/simple/python-olm/
|
||||
Couldn't find index page for 'python-olm' (maybe misspelled?)
|
||||
Scanning index of all packages (this may take a while)
|
||||
Reading https://pypi.org/simple/
|
||||
No local packages or working download links found for python-olm@ git+https://github.com/poljar/python-olm.git@master#egg=python-olm-0
|
||||
error: Could not find suitable distribution for Requirement.parse('python-olm@ git+https://github.com/poljar/python-olm.git@master#egg=python-olm-0')
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Out of the box, Python packages' `setup.py` scripts seem to not know how to
|
||||
handle packages whose URL specifies to grab it via VCS, such as `git+`. So we'll
|
||||
just help it out and grab it ourselves (instead of tinkering with anybody's
|
||||
scripts):
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
sudo pip2 install -e git+https://github.com/poljar/python-olm.git@master#egg=python-olm-0
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
*Now* we should have everything we need to install the `matrix-nio` Python
|
||||
package:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
sudo python2 ./setup.py install
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Once we've done that, we should have all the dependencies for `weechat-matrix`,
|
||||
so let's go ahead and clone that and install it!
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
git clone https://github.com/poljar/weechat-matrix.git
|
||||
cd weechat-matrix
|
||||
make install
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Done! The rest is up to you! You'll need to [configure your Matrix servers
|
||||
within WeeChat][weechat-matrix-config] and then verify keys. Verifying keys
|
||||
isn't a particularly clean process at the moment, but I expect it shall improve.
|
||||
For now, I followed this basic process in WeeChat:
|
||||
|
||||
+ Open a split at your status window so you can see it and the encrypted channel
|
||||
at the same time. (`/window splitv`)
|
||||
+ Open the encrypted channel whose keys you need to verify.
|
||||
+ List the unverified keys in the current channel. (`/olm info unverified`)
|
||||
+ For each user with keys listed there, verify all of their listed keys via your
|
||||
preferred method. Alternatively, you can do this on a per-device basis. See
|
||||
`/help olm` for details.
|
||||
+ Once all keys are verified, tell WeeChat you have done so. (`/olm verify
|
||||
@username:homeserver.example.com`)
|
||||
+ Repeat until there are no unverified keys remaining in the current channel and
|
||||
repeat for each channel. Whew!
