* Noise
|
|
|
|
Noise is a Signal Messenger client in Elisp for Emacs powered by https://github.com/AsamK/signal-cli
|
|
|
|
Its ultimate goal is to provide a fast and efficient user interfae for Signal chats.
|
|
|
|
** Tech stack
|
|
The tech stack is Elisp and SQLite (for storing conversations)
|
|
|
|
** Setup
|
|
The project assumes a working installation of signal-cli and interfaces with that via JSON-RPC.
|
|
|
|
** Dependencies
|
|
|
|
For SQLite access we use this library - https://github.com/pekingduck/emacs-sqlite3-api
|
|
|
|
We communicate with signal-cli via JSON-RPC over HTTP on localhost port 9128 by default but this can be configured by specifying =noise-signal-cli-address=
|
|
|
|
** User Experience
|
|
|
|
We follow Emacs conventions for keybindings with the addition of evil support out of the box. When evil compatibility is enabled then we provide a modal interface for searching conversations/contacts, creating conversations, sending messages, etc.
|
|
|
|
** User Interface
|
|
|
|
See the file signal-emacs-ui.html for user interface mockups we're targetting.
