Installing compiled Pidgin plugins in Adium? about adium HOT 2 OPEN

Hi Noah, I'm not a programmer but as far as I remember libpurple plugins have always required so-called "wrappers". You could have a look at how other libpurple plugins do it, for example https://github.com/tripplet/skypeweb4adium or the ones listed at https://adium.im/help/pgs/Accounts-ListOfServices.html

Edit: I just found there's also https://github.com/victori/slack4adium

The "Writing plugins" section at https://web.archive.org/web/20161110024438/https://trac.adium.im/wiki/Development has some general recommendations for writing plugins.

@Nezteb Yeah, it's odd how dylex/slack-libpurple just off-hand mentions Adium

If you're using a front-end (like Adium or Spectrum2) that does not let you set the API token, you can enter your token as the account password instead.

…but doesn't acknowledge that everything's wrapped in a .framework on macOS, and I don't think a Mac app would even know what to do with the libslack.so that gets copied to your home directory by slack-libpurple's make install-user.
