Error when starting convos (v0.1001)

AssetPack missing preprocessors:

• /home/xantus/convos-release/public/sass/main.scss

Would be nice if it was possible to browse backwards in time by date. Would be even cooler if the timeline had big/small circles when you talked/were mentioned/...

It quite annoying for a new user to think everything is set up just fine, while accidentely forgetting to start the backend.

It would be nice if the frontend displayed some sort of message when the backend is dead.

When clicking on a nick in the list of participants of a channel the tab of the channel stays active (bold) and no new tab for the private chat is attached in the menubar. Once the first reply is received, the nick is attached as a tab and marked as bold.

If there is already logged previous messages in that private chat, messages from the channels backlog are shown above the first logged message of the private chat. This only happens if the private chat is not attached as a tab, so will probably be fixed, once the tab is always properly opened.

I want to do some changes:

• I want to remove the "go to bottom" button or at least reformat it. #97
• Want timestamp on every messages from today. #96
• Figure out why autocomplete doesn't take the last nick that said something. #97
• Make view.network route accept POST so we can send data without websocket
• Get rid of data-target and data-network. Thinking about data-path="/:network/:target" instead.
• Move to react.js

Need to discuss this with @marcusramberg before changing.

It would be nice if the backend started by default if the server was started as a daemon.

I'm thinking maybe we should add another mojo command which starts both frontend/backend by setting an environment variable...

But do we really want this? I mean, should we rather tell the users that the right way to run the server is with two processes?

Re-assign to me @marcusramberg if you think we should have one command to rule them all.

It would be nice to have some other authentication mechanisms and LDAP in particular. I'm sure I'm not the only one keen on running something like this on a subnet far far away with sufficient infrastructure for user authentication.

The websocket does not reconnect if the computer change IP or goes to sleep. I've seen it some times on my phone and coworkers experience it "all the time" in Firefox. It's probably a common issue.

/names in the channel #nuug, receive this response:

<li class="nicks" data-network="freenode" data-target="#Nuug">
  <span class="prefix">Participants are</span>
  <span>
      <a data-nick="Brumle" href="/freenode/a">a</a>,
      <a data-nick="CybDev" href="/freenode/b">b</a>,
      <a data-nick="johskar" href="/freenode/c">c</a>,
  </span>
  <span class="timestamp" title=" 9. April 12:05:55">12:05</span>
</li>

So it seems like the javascript fail to lookup the "Nuug" id, since it's called "nuug" in the markup:

<ul class="with-sidebar chat" data-network="freenode" data-target="#nuug" data-nick="jhthorsen" data-start-time="1397035814.5320599" data-end-time="1397037930.6466999">

I joined an irc server, opened #somechannel and later quit the server, but the tab stayed. When I go to that tab and enter /close #somechannel or /close nothing happens. It would seem that I have to rejoin the irc server in order to close the tab?

When I write "/me does stuff" on demo.convos.by, it output "ACTION does stuff".

Seems the width calculation is off for some cases.

We should be able to add plugins to Convos that can extend with functionality such as karma: nick++, nick--

I guess this require more Mojo::EventEmitter code. One idea could be that Convos::Core is loading a list of plugins and each plugin can register events such as "connection_add", "connection_remove", ...

Following the principle of least surprise.

If you write "&amp ;" in the input field, it gets converted to "&". It should say "&" instead.

CTCP replies, at the very least VERSION, should be included. VERSION is free advertising, kind of...!

For example:

• entering irc.freenode.com produces non working url (/%20irc.freenode.com). You also can't delete server.

Hi,

Looks like you've accidently included the tar.gz dist of version 0.1 (Convos-0.1.tar.gz) in the latest version

thanks,
Michael

Backend changes to nick_ but frontend still thinks it is nick

What happens:

1. I try to send a message
2. The connection drops
3. The messageFailed() message appear, since I did not get a response from the server
4. The messageFailed() element is not removed when ws connection is established
5. But the message is stored in redis and sent to IRC server

This should be fixed by replaying server messages from when the connection was dropped on websocket reconnect.

This was once implemented, but now broken.

When attempting to add a server using an IPv6 address, "Invalid server name" is returned. If attempting to use a domain mapped to an IPv6 address, "Bad Hostname" is returned as the error.

I'm trying to connect to irc.perl.org's secure port (irc.perl.org:7062), but when I attempt to select the "TLS" setting in the "Secure" field and press "Update", the setting is reset back to it's original "No".

This is tested on https://chat.thorsen.pm/

Autoscroll is great when you're looking @ the browser. It would be great to have some way to go back to last read when the app has been out of focus for a while.

We want to skip using the config file. The plan is to move the parameters to %ENV or redis:

• name: Should be set by the first user that register See #99
• redis: Default to redis://127.0.0.1:6379/1, but use %ENV if possible. The keys should match the default keys on heroku and dotcloud. #47
• secret: We should generate the secrets and store them in Redis #47
• invite_code: Should be set by the first user that register #84
• hypnotoad: Add support for MOJO_LISTEN, #100
• backend - embedded: $ENV{CONVOS_BACKEND_EMBEDDED} // 1

For TLS support IO::Socket::SSL is required. Would it make sense to include it in the Docker container?

https://github.com/irccloud/ios
https://github.com/irccloud/irccloud-tools/wiki/API-Overview

We should support a searchable dropdown in convos when pressing t without focus in the input field, similar to what modern text editors do.

I found this missing dependency (Compress::Raw::Zlib) that caused the following output:

./vendor/bin/carton exec hypnotoad script/convos
Can't locate Compress/Raw/Zlib.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/local/bin/../lib /home/convos/convos/local/lib/perl5 /usr/local/lib/perl5 /usr/local/share/perl5 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 .) at /usr/local/share/perl5/Mojo/Content.pm line 5.

obviously this could be easily solved installing the required dependency but I don't know if this dependency should be added to the cpanfile.
I am also enclosing the perl -v, perl -V output. My OS is a Centos 6.5 fresh installed.

I think we should store the avatar lookup key in either the "name" or "user" attributes from Mojo::IRC. That way, we can share the avatar information across installations instead of limiting us to one server.

https://metacpan.org/pod/Mojo::IRC#name

But should i store the gravatar email or the hash? The latter gives more privacy, so I'm leaning toward that.

Hi,

It would be awesome if there was some guide to walk users through on how to deploy Convos to Heroku/DotCloud.

Thanks!

I want to use https://metacpan.org/release/Mojolicious-Plugin-Web-Auth to do oauth and oauth2 authentication.

@marcusramberg wants to use https://metacpan.org/release/Mojolicious-Plugin-OAuth2.

The reason I want to use Web::Auth is that it supports both oauth and oauth2. What do you think @marcusramberg?

I also want to make this an optional module.

Would like to have links to external resources in the README.md, Convos.pm and the web page:

• http://demo.convos.by
• http://thorsen.pm/perl/2014/03/02/convos-on-digitalocean.html

What do you think?

I like to use Convos at work and people like to post NSFW links.

I would like to have a restricted version of Convos, which only lets you log in and join a channel, without settings or persistence. For running a demo mode and embedding in company pages.

We need better link handling:

• (http://convos.by) - We currently think that ")" is part of the link
• Would be nice if links in "/title" output was clickable
• Would be nice if links in "/whois" output was clickable

You can join a channel with +k with /join #channel key
but key isn't saved, so if the server reconnect it will not rejoin #channel.

In the /settings page: If I set the "Avatar" field to one of my gravatar email addresses and press "Update", the Avatar field is cleared, and no sign is given of success or failure of the operation.

Hi, I really enjoyed your project and I was trying to install it on OpenShift, from Red Hat.

I was able to create an app using perl-5.10 and redis (from a community cartridge), and I had to place the module Mojolicious::Plugin::AssetPack::Preprocessors in deplist.txt

The problem I'm having is this, just after starting the server:

==> perl/logs/error_log-20131212-000000-EST <==

The server is telling that the file 'main.scss' can't be found. As you can notice the app resides on the path ''/var/lib/openshift/52a9bbd84382ec64230003a8/app-root/runtime/repo/perl" So I opened the convos.pm file and edited the line 198:

$self->asset('convos.css', '/sass/main.scss');

to

$self->asset('convos.css', '/var/lib/openshift/52a9bbd84382ec64230003a8/app-root/runtime/repo/perl/public/sass/main.scss');

but I still get the same error and the following message when the page is loaded:

==> perl/logs/error_log-20131212-000000-EST <==
[Thu Dec 12 09:49:46 2013] [debug] Reading config file "/var/lib/openshift/52a9bbd84382ec64230003a8/app-root/runtime/repo/perl/convos.conf".

Any clue on how to resolve this?

If this can be resolved, I'm planning to post on my blog a 'how-to' on convos deployment on OpenShift.

Cheers from a fellow monger.

Test:
Write something in a channel
switch channel
Channel you wrote something in turns red.

I'm trying to use Convos at a non '/' URL without much success. I've tried a couple of the recipes suggested in the Mojolicious guides without much luck - URL's do not get properly constructed and you end up at a 404 page.

Is there any chance this could be a supported configuration?

I would find it very useful - I have several web apps hosted behind a single domain name, each with their own path:

https://secure.host.com/webapp1/
https://secure.host.com/webapp2/
https://secure.host.com/webapp3/

These are all reverse-proxy'd by Apache.

Want to store the data in Mongodb instead of Redis. Can't really remember why, but we have a lot of structured data, which would probably be good to save in MongoDB.

I would also like to change the structure of how to store conversations:

{
  "message":"too cool!",
  "nick":"batman",
  "participants":[@user_id],
  "target":"#mojo",
  "timestamp": $not_sure,
  ...
}

The new thing here is "participants". That way we can keep the same stream of messages, but each convos user that is in the conversation at the given timestamp, will be in the "participants" list. That way it can be possible to open up conversations to people who was not there at the beginning.

Idea:
It would be super cool if Mandel had a redis backend, but I'm not quite sure how to do that. (yet)

It would be cool if a gist was created on multiline paste, and an URL was posted to the chat instead of multi line text. We might also create a "write code" mode which opens a multiline editor inside convos where the code is posted to gist.github.com.

I want to...

1. Create anon gist if user is not connected to github
2. Create a gist owned by the user if connected to github.
3. Make the gist private by default.

See also #89 for connecting to github and https://developer.github.com/v3/gists/

I changed the license to "Artistic License version 2.0" now (same as Mojolicious). I have no special reason why I chose that license, but we need some sort of COPYRIGHT AND LICENSE section.

Which do you prefer @marcusramberg ? I think I'm up for any kind...

Would be nice if convos show the time from the timezone I'm in.
