Libervia CLI tip 6:
Most commands have an `-O, --output` option to format the output. By default, the output is pretty formatted for humans, but you can output in JSON, XML, or other formats.
With `template` output you can use Jinja templates, either built-in ones (the ones used in the web frontend), or your own; useful to build static HTML pages/sites, or reformat the data the way you want.
Use `--help` to see available outputs
Libervia CLI tip 5:
You can retrieve or modify your contacts list (aka “roster” in XMPP terms) with `li roster`.
One of the subcommands, `stats`, gives you, as its name implies, statistics on your roster.
You’ll notably get the number of contacts per domain, with a percentage representing the domain's “weight.” It’s a simple way to see how decentralized your contacts network is.
Libervia CLI tip 4:
If you see an XMPP powered blog like those made with Libervia or Movim, you can use directly the `https:` URL to retrieve the XMPP blog or one of its posts.
For instance, to get my blog at goffi.org with Libervia CLI, you can do:
`li blog get -u goffi.org`
This works with all pubsub related commands, so if you have the right, you can also edit or publish like that.
OK so as people seem interested, here is a first Libervia-CLI tip.
`li` is the short alias for `libervia-cli`.
If you want to quickly upload a file to share it, you can use:
`li file upload -P your_file.ext`
`-P` shows a progress bar.
You can even encrypt it with the `-e` option in which case you'll have an `aesgcm:` with the decryption token as a fragment of the URL (the `#…` part).
You can then decrypt with `li file get`.
My talk "A Universal and Stable API to Everything: XMPP" is already available online, thanks to FOSDEM staff for their amazing work, and thanks to people who attended or we met at the RT Lounge.

🎉 Happy to announce that my talk "A Universal and Stable API to Everything: XMPP" at FOSDEM has been accepted! 🎉
I'll explore a new way of seeing XMPP and how it can achieve things quickly and simply when used as a coding interface. I’ll also discuss the work of the XMPP Standards Foundation and why having many XEPs isn’t a bad thing.
📍 See you at FOSDEM 1 & 2 February 2025 at Real-Time Lounge.

Some updates on my #Libervia work:
- Kicked off #email #gateway project (nlnet.nl/project/EmailXMPPgate…) using IMAP/STMP. Basic gateway should be coming soon.
- Preparing next major release: web frontend design & internal improvements in progress. The release will be *huge*.
- Started new desktop frontend; more details to follow.
- Aiming to resume blogging and weekly videos this week, if time allows.
- Targeting a Libervia-based service by the end of the year.
🎉 The #NLnet Libervia-AV project is officially complete! 🎉
I've successfully implemented one-to-one calls, desktop sharing, group calls & more, plus ported #Galène #SFU to #XMPP.
Huge thanks to everyone who supported this project!
I'll probably post a blog about the work done around the end of the summer.
Now it's time for some vacations 😎.
#Libervia se joint aux autres signataires de la lettre ouverte pour soutenir #NLnet/le programme #NGI qui se voient couper le financement pour 2025.
C'est grâce à ce programme que je peux travailler actuellement à plein temps sur le projet, et que nous avons pu implémenter:
- la passerelle #ActivityPub <=> #XMPP
- le chiffrement de bout en bout à l'état de l'art
- Les appels audio/video 1:1, contrôle à distance et conferences (travail en cours)
Happy to announce that I've got an extension on my current #NLnet A/V grant for #Libervia to work on S.F.U. (Selective Forwarding Unit), it's a service needed for large A/V conference rooms, à la #Jitsi.
However, the delay is really short (hard deadline in August), so lot of work planned in coming weeks.
It will be based on #Galène and parts will be available for whole #XMPP ecosystem.
Thanks again to #NLnet and @EUCommission #NGIAssure for their support.
I've just pushed the implementation of a GUI for calls in the CLI frontend of #Libervia
That means that you have a full-featured #Qt GUI accessible quickly from your #terminal to make or receive your #XMPP calls. Can also be useful to compensate for clients missing A/V calls.
Documentation at libervia.org/__b/doc/backend/l…
I'm delighted to announce that #Libervia has received a new grant from #NLnet #NGI0 to develop an #email <=> #XMPP gateway.
This project will not only convert normal messages but also transform mailing lists into #pubsub based forums. It includes UI/UX enhancements on Libervia, end-to-end encryption, and advanced handling of attachments.
More at: nlnet.nl/project/EmailXMPPgate…
I've just pushed A/V call commands to the #CLI frontend of #Libervia. I believe that it's the only #XMPP CLI to date with calling capabilities (make and receive calls).
This complete #web and #desktop (#Kivy) implementations.
All thanks to #NLnet / #NGI Assure grant (and hard work!).
Still need some stabilisation work, hopefully will be ready for incoming release.
The video of my talk on #Libervia at #OW2Con 23 is now available at youtube.com/watch?v=EkkiKn0TON…
Huge thanks to the organizers! If you have questions or just want to chat about it, don't hesitate to reach out.

This is a major milestone which gives a good idea of where Libervia is going to : a friends and family oriented social network
