*** Original post on bio 563 at 2010-10-26 17:56:00 UTC *** Even though that Skype requires to be running in background at the moment, it would be nice to have support for it since it would allow you to have all your chat logs in one place (i.e. Instantbird). The first problem could be solved once SkypeKit is available.

*** Original post on bio 563 at 2010-10-26 17:58:51 UTC *** It could be a great example for javascript based protocols and how to use js-ctypes if this could be implemented using the above mentioned techniques.

*** Original post on bio 563 at 2010-10-26 18:37:06 UTC *** Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be a multi-platform way to do this: "Communication Layer provides a mechanism for external application to communicate with Skype. This layer is platform-d[e]pendant - a transport mechanism to exchange data with Skype is different on Windows, Linux and Mac operating systems." Linux uses X11/DBus and Mac uses Cocoa, so not sure we can do that via JavaScript. I'm not sure of Windows communication layer. Also some of the examples in seem to link to a webpage that cannot be accessed without SkypeKit clearance, which isn't very useful.

I agree. > By the way: Skypekit is published. > See here: http://developer.skype.com/public/skypekit Yes, I (we?) checked it out when it was released; but the SDK does not agree with our license (at least it's not GPL compatible, I'm not sure about MPL compatible), there's also something about redistributing binaries in there (and a non-competition clause I think). So I'm not sure how feasible it really is. (Also they want $10.00 to have the SDK and you need API keys and bleh.) Hopefully they'll open things up a bit more at some point! I've done a bit of work on integrating the skype4pidgin code though, although it requires running Skype too. :( Hopefully I'll finish this up soon!

Hello, this sounds fantastic. Having to run Skype in the background is no problem (of cause a fill integration would be much better). Greetings OLLI

I'm close to closing this bug as WONTFIX: - Skype no longer supports the SkypeKit SDK [1] - Skype no longer supports the Skype Desktop API [2][3] Before fully closing this I want to check with the author of skype4pidgin [4] about whether it still works or not. [1] https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA12322/what-is-skypekit [2] https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA214/what-is-the-desktop-api [3] https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA12349/skype-says-my-application-will-stop-working-with-skype-in-december-2013-why-is-that [4] http://code.google.com/p/skype4pidgin/

Eion Robb told me on IRC that this still works for Linux, at least. I'll keep this open for now.

There seems to be no reasonable way to do this right now. It's not a matter of just figuring out how to do the work. If there becomes a reasonable way to add Skype support we should look into that and reopen this.

Skype has added a web API per http://blogs.skype.com/2014/11/14/please-welcome-skype-for-web-beta/, it's in closed beta, but...you just need to set a field properly and it lets you in. This WIP connects, downloads the contact list and requests status for the buddies and sends/receive messages from individual conversations. I'm sure there is a lot of error checking missing but I want some people to bash on this and see what breaks for them. (And give some feedback on the code.)

Comment on attachment 8534783 [details] [diff] [review] WIP v1 Review of attachment 8534783 [details] [diff] [review]: ----------------------------------------------------------------- I'd appreciate some feedback on this as I continue down the path. Note that I've already added a few more features (profiles, e.g. real names and buddy icons, are downloaded now, but I haven't uploaded a new patch yet).

I believe that this is enough of the protocol to land, although we'd want some way to pref this off first. (Let's consider that a review comment, but please don't let that stop you from reviewing the rest of the code.)

So addBuddy notifies the server. We probably don't want loadBuddy to do that or it would keep adding buddies back to the server on people. I don't know how we normally handle syncing though.

There's no socket. This isn't possible. I also realized that I didn't do packaging, so I'll need to put up another patch.

This adds packaging, keeping the r+ from aleth. Florian mentioned he wants to take a look at the strings, at least.

Florian please take a quick look at the strings. Thanks!
