Poezio is a console Jabber/XMPP client. Its goal is to use anonymous connections to simply let the user join MultiUserChats. This way, the user doesn't have to create a Jabber account, exactly like people are using IRC. Poezio's commands are designed to be (if possible) like commonly used IRC clients (weechat, irssi, etc).
Since version 0.7, poezio can handle real Jabber accounts along with roster and one-to-one conversations, making it a full-featured console Jabber client, but still MultiUserChats-centered. In the future, poezio should implement at a 100% level all XEP related to MUCs, especially XEP 0045.
You need python 3.5 or higher (preferably the latest) and the associated devel package, to build C modules, and the slixmpp python library. You also need aiodns if you want SRV record support.
Additionally, you’ll need sphinx to build the documentation pages. To read the documentation without these dependancies just read the rst files in the doc/source/ directory or the generated documentation on the website.
The simplest way to have up-to-date dependencies and to be able to test
this developement version is to use the update.sh script that downloads
them, places them in the right directory, and builds the C module.
You can then launch poezio with
$ ./launch.sh
you can now simply launch poezio
You can edit the configuration file which is located in
~/.config/poezio/poezio.cfg by default, and you will have to copy
and edit data/default_config.cfg if you want to edit the config before
the first launch. The default config file is fully commented, but you can
also read the “Configuration” documentation page which has links between
options and longer descriptions.
Please see the online documentation for more information on installing, configuring or using poezio: https://doc.poez.io/
