wish: CLI invocation of empathy (call me or add friend)
Last modified: 2010-03-25 09:38:07 UTC
I'd like to publish links on our company intranet directory of the type: <a href="xmpp:firstname.lastname@googlemail.com"> If someone clicks on these, then firefox will open the relevant protocol handler, and it's quite easy to associate xmpp: with /usr/bin/empathy Now if I run the command: /usr/bin/empathy xmpp:firstname.lastname@googlemail.com at the moment, empathy starts, but ignores the argument. What I'd like it to do is: - If I have that user in my chat address book, it should launch a video call to them. - If I haven't got that user in my address book, it should attempt to add them as a contact. Thanks - Richard
Closing as a dup of bug #541156 which is about handling xmpp:// links. What you want is quiet specific. You could consider writing a small Telepathy application doing that directly. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 541156 ***
