message: chat message management
|
||
================================
|
||
|
||
Message commands let you send chat messages or manage your server message archives.
|
||
|
||
.. _libervia-cli_message_send:
|
||
|
||
send
|
||
====
|
||
|
||
Send a message to a contact or a chat room.
|
||
``stdin`` is used as message source.
|
||
You can encrypt your message using ``--encrypt [ALGORITHM]`` argument, this will create an encrypted session and replace existing one if needed.
|
||
You can manage your encrypted session using ``encryption`` command.
|
||
|
||
examples
|
||
--------
|
||
|
||
Send a message to a contact::
|
||
|
||
$ echo 'Salut à Toi!' | li message send louise@example.net
|
||
|
||
Send a message encrypted with OMEMO::
|
||
|
||
$ echo 'pssst, this message is encrypted' | li message send -e omemo louise@example.net
|
||
|
||
.. note::
|
||
|
||
Fingerprints of your destinee must have been accepted before using OMEMO, else message can't be encrypted
|
||
|
||
Send a ``normal`` message marked as French with a subject::
|
||
|
||
$ echo 'Bonjour, je vous écris avec « Libervia »' | li message send -l fr -t normal -S 'Ceci est un message de test'
|
||
|
||
retract
|
||
=======
|
||
|
||
Retract a message, i.e. mark it as retracted in database, and send a retraction request to
|
||
original recipient.
|
||
|
||
When a message is marked as retracted in database, it won't appear anymore or a hint
|
||
(commonly called *tombstone*) will be displayed instead (the behaviour depend of the
|
||
frontend that you're using). However, there is an option to archive retracted messages:
|
||
``Privacy``/``retract_history``. This option is disabled by default, but if you set it
|
||
(e.g. with ``li param set``), the original message will be kept in metadata and may be
|
||
displayed if the frontend that you're using allows it.
|
||
|
||
The ``message_id`` positional argument is the internal ID of the message (not an XMPP ID).
|
||
It may be displayed by some frontends.
|
||
|
||
.. note::
|
||
|
||
It is not possible to be sure that a message will be retracted: once something is sent
|
||
through the network, any recipient can keep it, copy it, share it, etc. This is true for
|
||
Libervia/XMPP as for any software, decentralized or not.
|
||
|
||
Retract send a retractation **request**, i.e. it asks to the recipient(s) client(s) to
|
||
hide or delete the message, but it's not possible to have a guarantee that nobody kept
|
||
a request.
|
||
|
||
The message is also removed from database, except if the option
|
||
``Privacy``/``retract_history`` is set (see above).
|
||
|
||
example
|
||
-------
|
||
|
||
Retract message with ID ``1234-5678-9abc-def0``::
|
||
|
||
$ li message retract 1234-5678-9abc-def0
|
||
|
||
mam
|
||
===
|
||
|
||
Query archives using MAM.
|
||
|
||
This command allows you to check message archive kept on the server (i.e. not the local copy).
|
||
You usually want to specify a starting point, and a number of message to retrieve. If too many messages
|
||
are available, you'll have to use RSM commands to navigate through the results.
|
||
|
||
examples
|
||
--------
|
||
|
||
Retrieve messages from last 2 days::
|
||
|
||
$ li message mam -S "2 days ago"
|
||
|
||
Retrieve messages from last 5 hours on Libervia official chat room::
|
||
|
||
$ li message mam -S "5 hours ago" -s sat@chat.jabberfr.org
|
||
|
||
Retrieve 2 first messages of 2019 on Libervia official chat room::
|
||
|
||
$ li message mam -S 2019-01-01 -s sat@chat.jabberfr.org -m 2
