algia's Issues

cannot use path@version syntax in GOPATH mode?

$ go version
go version go1.15.15 linux/arm64
$ uname -a
Linux 6.1.21-v8+ #1642 SMP PREEMPT Mon Apr  3 17:24:16 BST 2023 aarch64 GNU/Linux
$ go install github.com/mattn/algia@latest
package github.com/mattn/algia@latest: cannot use path@version syntax in GOPATH mode

Config dir on macOS

Minimal configuration. Need to be at ~/.config/algia/config.json

On macOS this actually defaults to $HOME/Library/Application Support/algia/config.json as per os.UserConfigDir, which is not ideal.

I think the most straightforward way to get macOS clients to use the ~/.config dir is to replace os.UserConfigDir with a 3rd party package like github.com/mitchellh/go-homedir. If this is an acceptable solution let me know - I'd be happy to submit a pull request.

invalid separator index 66

Cheers,

I've cloned the repo, run make, copied the config to the proper location and updated it for use in my project.

However, every algia command returns invalid separator index 66

Any ideas?

Initializing ev.Tags with nostr.Tags{} in case of tag is empty when publishing an event at doPost function

In doPost function, ev.Tags may need to be initialized with nostr.Tags{ }.

If no tags were added to the event object, the ev.Tags was nil.
I observed many of relays reject event objects when it was nil.

To resolve this, initializing ev.Tags with nostr.Tags{ } (an empty array of array) worked for me.

I would suggest to add this line,

ev.Tags = nostr.Tags{ }

before the line 260 in "timeline.go."

/*Line 260: func doPost in timeline.go*/
	for i, u := range cCtx.StringSlice("u") {
		ev.Content = fmt.Sprintf("#[%d] ", i) + ev.Content
		if pp := sdk.InputToProfile(u); pp == nil {
			return fmt.Errorf("failed to parse pubkey from '%s'", u)
		} else {
			u = pp.PublicKey
		}
		ev.Tags = ev.Tags.AppendUnique(nostr.Tag{"p", u})
	}
/*the function goes on...*/

If ev.Tags is nil, the corresponding part in the parsed JSON will be nil.
If initialized with nostr.Tags{}, it will be "[]".

add example command

I am trying to use your client, however it says "string not all lowercase or all uppercase".

I am typing "algia timeline".

Can you provide some simple example in the readme?

Thanks!

config.json download incorrect following accounts

When running algia tl for the first time, the file config.json fills with invalid list of following accounts.

Add explicit LICENSE file

License is MIT, but it would be great to have an explicit file (as is standard) so GitHub and other tools can pick up on it.

Thank you.
