Just to clarify in case the page expires or it is changed, the link is this
xmpp:debian-fr@chat.jabberfr.org?join
Comment 2 Filipe Azevedo 2012-09-10 10:24:38 UTC
Right, this is that.
Aol AIM use aim:
But it exists also something equals for msn etc. This has to be handled too ;)

Thanks,

From Kopete source code this list of protocols is:

./protocols/skype/skype.protocol
./protocols/skype/tel.protocol
./protocols/skype/callto.protocol
./protocols/oscar/aim/aim.protocol
./protocols/irc/irc.protocol
./protocols/jabber/xmpp.protocol

Skype and IRC we don't support No-one uses AIM.
Might be worth doing rakia for tel: links.

Action plan:
 - we build one application that takes a URL extract, guesses which account will be best (maybe prompting if there are two jabber accounts?) and then runs ensureTextChat(contactId) / ensureTextChatRoom(roomId) as appropriate
 
 - we install all the protocol files to launch that

 - put all this in common-internals

Code is pretty straightforward, and would a useful tool to have

Edit: maybe combine with ktp-paste-contact
Comment 5 Daniele E. Domenichelli 2013-03-20 10:11:13 UTC
The plan looks good, marking this for 0.7.

The only problem that I see is that the files will have the same name as kopete ones (e.g. /usr/share/kde4/services/tel.protocol) so there will be a conflict with installed files, so we should document this in packagers reference, so that they can resolve it (i.e. debian should probably use update-alternatives)

Instead of prompting if there are two jabber accounts, we could open the join chat room dialog, ktp-dialout-ui, etc. with the required fields already filled with data from the link.

I'm not sure if merging it with ktp-paste-contact is a good idea, but perhaps ktp-paste-contact could use it to resolve the names and avoid duplicate code?

Dear user, unfortunately Telepathy is no longer maintained.

Please migrate to another solution, e.g. for Jabber a possibility is Kaidan, for Matrix a candidate is NeoChat.
