From a949b43ed657154d4ff8492bbdb16202a1a9f22d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: dequis Date: Sun, 11 Mar 2018 16:33:55 -0300 Subject: Remove old skype plugin. Use the skypeweb purple plugin instead. RIP This plugin relied on the skype linux client, which doesn't work anymore. During login it just does exit(0) for mysterious reasons. I guess that's the server trying to say that it's not supported. This is officially dead now after a few years of kinda-almost-working. --- protocols/skype/HACKING | 80 ------------------------------------------------- 1 file changed, 80 deletions(-) delete mode 100644 protocols/skype/HACKING (limited to 'protocols/skype/HACKING') diff --git a/protocols/skype/HACKING b/protocols/skype/HACKING deleted file mode 100644 index 935856a7..00000000 --- a/protocols/skype/HACKING +++ /dev/null @@ -1,80 +0,0 @@ -== Tabs - -I use the following tabs during the development: - -1) bitlbee-skype: - -vim, make, etc. - -2) bitlbee: - -gdb --args ./bitlbee -v -n -D -run - -3) skyped: - -python skyped.py -n -d - -4) irssi - - -== Tests - -The plugin is tested with a mocked IRC client and a mocked skyped. - -=== Requirements - -Python pexpect module is required to run the tests. - -To run tests with bitlbee built in a development tree and not (the one) -installed in the system (e.g. /usr), make sure to specify --plugindir= option to -./configure script during the build process: - -bitlbee% ./configure --skype=1 --plugindir="$(realpath .)" - -Otherwise bitlbee will try to load skype.so (among other things) from /usr/lib, -which is probably not what you want to test, or produce "Unknown protocol" -error. - -=== Running - -Tests can be run by running test.py script in this ("protocols/skype") -directory. - -For more control over how/which tests are being run from there, use "python -m -unittest" command: - -bitlbee/protocols/skype% python -m unittest test -bitlbee/protocols/skype% python -m unittest -f test -bitlbee/protocols/skype% python -m unittest test.Test.testMsg - -If bitlbee crashes during tests with SIGSEGV (segmentation fault), it's likely -that there is some problem with skype.c plugin. -To get a backtrace of such crash, use: - -bitlbee/protocols/skype% ATTACH_GDB=true python -m unittest test.Test.testMsg - -Example shows running "testMsg" test with gdb attached to bitlbee, which will -produce full backtrace in "t/gdb-.log" files (see pid in pexpect error -output of the test). - -=== Adding new tests - -To add a new test, the following steps are necessary: - -1) Add a new -skyped.mock file: just do the test manually, copy&paste the -skyped output and clean it up, so Alice talks to Bob.
