NAME¶

go-sendxmpp - A tool to send messages to an XMPP contact or MUC.

SYNOPSIS¶

go-sendxmpp [-cdintx] [-f value] [--help] [-j value] [-m value] [-p value] [-r value] [-u value] [parameters ...]

DESCRIPTION¶

A tool to send messages to an XMPP contact or MUC inspired by (but not as powerful as) sendxmpp.
You can either pipe a programs output to go-sendxmpp, write in your terminal (put ^D in a new line to finish) or send the input from a file (-m or --message). The account data is expected at ~/.config/go-sendxmpp/config (preferred), ~/.config/go-sendxmpp/sendxmpprc (deprecated) ~/.sendxmpprc (for compatibility with the original perl sendxmpp) if no other configuration file location is specified with -f or --file.

OPTIONS¶

-a, --alias=[value]

Set alias/nickname for chatrooms.

-c, --chatroom=[value]

Send message to a chatroom.

-d, --debug

Show debugging info.

-f, --file=[value]

Set configuration file. (Default: ~/.config/go-sendxmpp/config)

--headline

Send message as type headline.

--help

Show help.

-h, --http-upload=[value]

Send a file via http-upload.

-i, --interactive

Interactive mode (for use with e.g. tail -f).

-j, --jserver=[value]

XMPP server address.

-l, --listen

Listen for messages and print them to stdout. If JIDs are specified only messages from those contacts are shown. If no JIDs are specified all received messages will be shown.

-m, --message=[value]

Set file including the message.

--muc-password=[value]

Password for password protected MUCs.

-n, --no-tls-verify

Skip verification of TLS certificates (not recommended).

--oob-file=[value]

URL to send a file as out of band data.

--ox

Use "OpenPGP for XMPP" encryption (experimental).
Ox in go-sendxmpp only supports sending encrypted 1-1 messages. Sending to groupchats and sending encrypted files is not supported. There is no check whether the recipients key is trusted as there is no local keyring used. Go-sendxmpp just uses the most recent key that is provided via pubsub and checks that it is not expired. As a user facing client a notification would be shown that a new key is available and ask the user whether to use the new key or stick to the old one. As go-sendxmpp is usually used in scripts it just accepts the new key to prevent the user from missing a new notification due to changed keys.

--ox-delete-nodes

Delete existing OpenPGP nodes on the server.

--ox-genprivkey-rsa

Generate a private OpenPGP key (RSA 4096 bit) for the configured account (via config file or -u and -p) and publish the corresponding public key. Go-sendxmpp will save the key in $XDG_DATA_HOME/go-sendxmpp/oxprivkeys or $HOME/.local/share/go-sendxmpp/oxprivkeys. To protect the key a passphrase might be set using --ox-passphrase while generating the key.
If there is an existing private key for "OpenPGP for XMPP" created by another client (e.g. profanity) it might be imported using --ox-import-privkey.

--ox-genprivkey-x25519

Generate a private OpenPGP key (X25519) for the configured account (via config file or -u and -p) and publish the corresponding public key. Go-sendxmpp will save the key in $XDG_DATA_HOME/go-sendxmpp/oxprivkeys or $HOME/.local/share/go-sendxmpp/oxprivkeys. To protect the key a passphrase might be set using --ox-passphrase while generating the key.
If there is an existing private key for "OpenPGP for XMPP" created by another client (e.g. profanity) it might be imported using --ox-import-privkey.

--ox-import-privkey=[value]

Import an existing private OpenPGP key.

--ox-passphrase=[value]

Passphrase for locking and unlocking the private OpenPGP key.

--tls-version=[value]

Minimal TLS version. 10 (TLSv1.0), 11 (TLSv1.1), 12 (TLSv1.2), 13 (TLSv1.3) (Default: 12)

-p, --password=[value]

Password for XMPP account.

--raw

Send raw XML. To send raw XML to a contact as normal chat message no contact must be specified. To send raw XML to a MUC you have to specify the MUC via -c and go-sendxmpp will join the MUC.

-r, --resource=[value]

DEPRECATED: Set resource. When sending to a chatroom this is used as 'alias'.

--timeout=[value]

Connection timeout in seconds. (Default: 10)

-t, --tls

Use direct TLS.

-u, --username=[value]

Username for XMPP account (JID).

--version

Show version information.
