### Screenshots
*Toxygen on Ubuntu and Windows*
![Ubuntu](/docs/ubuntu.png)
![Windows](/docs/windows.png)
Windows was working but is not currently being tested. AV was working
but is not currently being tested: we're unsure of handling the AV devices
from the commandline. We need to get a working echobot that supports SOCKS5;
we were working on one in https://git.plastiras.org/emdee/toxygen_wrapper
## Forked
This hard-forked from the dead https://github.com/toxygen-project/toxygen
```next_gen``` branch.
See ToDo.md to the current ToDo list.
## Wechat
You can have a [weechat](https://github.com/weechat/qweechat)
console so that you can have IRC and jabber in a window as well as Tox.
There's a copy of qweechat in ```thirdparty/qweechat``` backported to
PyQt5 and integrated into toxygen. Follow the normal instructions for
adding a ```relay``` to [weechat](https://github.com/weechat/weechat)
```
/relay add ipv4.ssl.weechat 9001
/relay start ipv4.ssl.weechat
```
or
```
/set relay.network.ipv6 off
/relay add weechat 9000
/relay start weechat
```
and use the Plugins/Weechat Console to start weechat under Toxygen.
Then use the File/Connect menu item of the Console to connect to weechat.
Weechat has a Jabber plugin to enable XMPP:
```
/python load jabber.el
/help jabber
```
so you can have Tox, IRC and XMPP in the same application!
## Install
To install read the requirements.txt and look at the comments; there
may be things that need installing by hand or decisions to be made
on supported alternatives.
https://git.plastiras.org/emdee/toxygen_wrapper needs packaging
on pypi as it is a dependency. Just download and install it from
https://git.plastiras.org/emdee/toxygen_wrapper
This is being ported to Qt6 using qtpy https://github.com/spyder-ide/qtpy
It now runs on PyQt5 and should soon run on PyQt6 and may run on PySide2 and
PySide6 - YMMV. You will be able to choose between them by setting the
environment variable QT_API to one of: pyqt5 pyqt6 pyside2 pyside6.
To install it, look in the Makefile for the install target and type
```
make install
```
You should set the PIP_EXE_MSYS and PYTHON_EXE_MSYS variables and it does
```
${PIP_EXE_MSYS} --python ${PYTHON_EXE_MSYS} install \
--target ${PREFIX}/lib/python${PYTHON_MINOR}/site-packages/ \
--upgrade .
```
and installs into PREFIX which is usually /usr/local
Up-to-date code is on https://git.plastiras.org/emdee/toxygen
## MultiDevice
Work on this project is suspended until the
[MultiDevice](https://git.plastiras.org/emdee/tox_profile/wiki/MultiDevice-Announcements-POC) problem is solved. Fork me!

## Toxygen Weechat
You can have a [weechat](https://github.com/weechat/qweechat)

/relay start ipv4.ssl.weechat
```
or
```
/set relay.network.ipv6 off
/set relay.network.password password
/relay add weechat 9000
/relay start weechat
```
and use the Plugins/Weechat Console to start weechat under Toxygen.
Then use the File/Connect menu item of the Console to connect to weechat.
Weechat has a Jabber plugin to enable XMPP:
```
/python load jabber.el
/help jabber
```
so you can have Tox, IRC and XMPP in the same application!
### Creating servers for IRC over Tor
Create a proxy called tor
```
/proxy add tor socks5 127.0.0.1 9050
```
It should now show up in the list of proxies.
```
proxy list
```
```
/nick NickName
```
## TLS certificates
[Create a Self-signed Certificate](https://www.oftc.net/NickServ/CertFP/)
Choose a NickName you will identify as.
Create a directory for your certificates ~/.config/weechat/ssl/
and make a subdirectory for each server ~/.config/weechat/ssl/irc.oftc.net/
Change to the server directory and use openssl to make a keypair and answer the questions:
```
openssl req -nodes -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout NickName.key -x509 -days 3650 -out NickName.cer
chmod 400 NickName.key
```
We now combine certificate and key to a single file NickName.pem
```
cat NickName.cer NickName.key > NickName.pem
chmod 400 NickName.pem
```
Do this for each server you want to connect to, or just use one for all of them.
### Libera TokTok channel
The main discussion forum for Tox is the #TokTok channel on libera.
libera has an onion server so we can map an address in tor. Add this
to your /etc/tor/torrc
```
MapAddress palladium.libera.chat libera75jm6of4wxpxt4aynol3xjmbtxgfyjpu34ss4d7r7q2v5zrpyd.onion
```
Define the server in weechat
https://www.weechat.org/files/doc/stable/weechat_user.en.html#irc_sasl_authentication
```
/server remove libera
/server add libera palladium.libera.chat/6697 -tls -tls_verify
/set irc.server.libera.ipv6 off
/set irc.server.libera.proxy tor
/set irc.server.libera.username NickName
/set irc.server.libera.nicks NickName
/set irc.server.libera.tls on
/set irc.server.libera.tls_cert "${weechat_config_dir}/ssl/libera.chat/NickName.pem"
```
```
/set irc.server.libera.sasl_mechanism ecdsa-nist256p-challenge
/set irc.server.libera.sasl_username "NickName"
/set irc.server.libera.sasl_key "${weechat_config_dir}/ssl/libera.chat/NickName.pem"
```
Disconnect and connect back to the server.
```
/disconnect libera
/connect libera
```
### oftc.net
To use oftc.net over tor, you need to authenticate by SSL certificates.
Define the server in weechat
```
/server remove irc.oftc.net
/network add OFTC
/server add OFTC irc.oftc.net/6697 -proxy tor -autoconnect -ssl_verify -ssl_cert ~/.config/weechat/ssl/irc.oftc.net/NickName.pem
/set irc.server.OFTC.ipv6 off
# Disconnect and connect back to the server.
/disconnect OFTC
/connect OFTC
```
You must be identified in order to validate using certs
```
/msg nickserv identify NickName
```
To allow NickServ to identify you based on this certificate you need
to associate the certificate fingerprint with your nick. To do this
issue the command cert add to Nickserv (try /msg nickserv helpcert).
```
/msg nickserv cert add
```
