fishroom

Message forwarding for multiple IM protocols

Motivation

TUNA needs a chatroom, while each IM protocol/software has its own implementation for chatroom.

Unlike email and mailing list, instant messaging is fragmented and everybody has different preferred software. As a result, TUNA as a group of people, was splitted into IRC users, wechat users, telegram users, XMPP users, etc.

To reunify TUNA, we created this project to synchronize messages between IM clients, so that people can enjoy a big party again.

Supported IMs

• IRC
• XMPP
• Telegram
• Gitter (not yet)
• Actor (not yet)
• Tox (not yet)
• Wechat (maybe)

How to Use

Clone me first

git clone https://github.com/tuna/fishroom
cd fishroom

Docker Rocks!

Get a redis docker and run it:

docker pull redis:alpine
docker run --name redis -v /var/lib/redis:/data -d redis:alpine

Modify the config file, and remember the redis hostname you specified in config.py. I suggest that just use redis as the hostname.

mv fishroom/config.py.example fishroom/config.py
vim fishroom/config.py

Modify Dockerfile, you may want to change the sources.list content. Build the docker for fishroom:

docker build --tag fishroom:dev .

Since the code of fishroom often changes, we mount the code as a volume, and link redis to it.

You can test it using

docker run -it --rm fishroom --link redis:redis -v /path/to/fishroom/fishroom:/data/fishroom fishroom:dev python3 -u -m fishroom.fishroom

If everything works, we run it as daemon.

docker run -d --name fishroom --link redis:redis -v /path/to/fishroom/fishroom:/data/fishroom fishroom:dev python3 -u -m fishroom.fishroom

To view the logs, use

docker logs fishroom

Next we run the web interface, if you have configured the chat_logger part in config.py.

docker run -d --name fishroom-web --link redis:redis -p 127.0.0.1:8000:8000 -v /path/to/fishroom/fishroom:/data/fishroom fishroom:dev python3 -u -m fishroom.fishroom_web

Open your browser, and visit http://127.0.0.1:8000/, you should be able to view the web UI of fishoom.

Docker Sucks!

Install and run redis first, assuming you use ubuntu or debian.

apt-get install redis

Modify the config file, the redis server should be on addr 127.0.0.1 and port 6379.

mv fishroom/config.py.example fishroom/config.py
vim fishroom/config.py

Ensure your python version is at least 3.4, next, we install the dependencies for fishroom.

apt-get install -y python3-dev python3-pip libmagic1 libjpeg-dev libpng-dev libwebp-dev zlib1g-dev gcc
pip3 install --upgrade pip setuptools
pip3 install -r requirements.txt

Run fishroom and fishroom web.

python3 -m fishroom.fishroom
python3 -m fishroom.fishroom_web

Open your browser, and visit http://127.0.0.1:8000/, you should be able to view the web UI of fishoom.

Good Luck!
