Reworked my XMPP code, which was still specific to push notification, into
|
|
a more generic XMPP client, that's based on a very generic NetMessager
|
|
class, that the rest of the assistant can access without knowing anything
|
|
about XMPP.
|
|
|
|
Got pair requests flowing via XMPP ping, over Google Talk! And when the
|
|
webapp receives a pair request, it'll pop up an alert to respond. The rest
|
|
of XMPP pairing should be easy to fill in from here.
|
|
|
|
To finish XMPP pairing, I'll need git pull over XMPP, which is nontrivial,
|
|
but I think I know basically how to do. And I'll need some way to represent
|
|
an XMPP buddy as a git remote, which is all that XMPP pairing will really
|
|
set up.
|
|
|
|
It could be a git remote using an `xmpp:user@host` URI for the git url, but
|
|
that would confuse regular git to no end (it'd think it was a ssh host),
|
|
and probably need lots of special casing in the parts of git-annex that
|
|
handle git urls too. Or it could be a git remote without an url set, and
|
|
use another config field to represent the XMPP data. But then git wouldn't
|
|
think it was a remote at all, which would prevent using "git pull
|
|
xmppremote" at all, which I'd like to be able to use when implementing git
|
|
pull over XMPP.
|
|
|
|
Aha! The trick seems to be to leave the url unset in git config,
|
|
but temporarily set it when pulling:
|
|
|
|
GIT_SSH=git-annex git git -c remote.xmppremote.url=xmpp:client pull xmppremote
|
|
|
|
Runs git-annex with "xmpp git-upload-pack 'client'".. Just what I need.
