Textual open chatting

🙏 Jobdam - Terminal TUI open chatting APP 🙏

Enjoy simple open chatting in the terminal!

Introduction

Jobdam, meaning "chat, small talk, chitchat" in Korean, is a TUI (Text User Interface) open chatting application built with a simple UI. It allows anyone to easily engage in open chatting in the terminal without the need for authentication or sign-up.

🛎 Current Version 0.1.2

Upgrade with pip install jobdam --upgrade

🚀 Installation & Settings

• Requires Python version >3.11 to be installed.
• Installable in the terminal using the following command:

pip install jobdam

Some shells can damage the UI, and we recommend it to be used on the full screen, preferably.

👨‍💻 Instructions

• The screen consists of various widgets. You can navigate conveniently with the TAB key and select a Room using the up and down arrow keys.
• To create a Room, you need to input Room Name, Tag, and Maximum people. The Maximum people limit is up to 10.
• Owners can ban guests and change room settings.

Login

Similar to the register screen.

Search Screen

• The left side shows the rooms you've joined, and the center lists rooms created by other users.
• The input field at the top center allows you to search for rooms by Room name or #tag.
  • e.g., #Language

Create room Screen

Clicking the Create Room button on the search screen brings up the following screen.

• Set Room Name, Tag, and Maximum people, each with its own validator.

Chat room Screen

• The left side displays rooms you've joined. If it's your room, you can join another room at any time.
• The main center screen shows the chat history.
• The right screen lists the people in the room. Owners can ban unwanted guests with the Enter key.
• The Setting button at the bottom left allows owners to change room settings.
• The Exit button deletes the room if you're the owner or simply exits the joined room if you're a guest.

💬 Remarks

When entering a room, a WebSocket connection is established, and the connection is immediately terminated upon exiting the app.

I wanted the WebSocket to persist for the duration of the access token's validity to send notifications. However, I have not yet found a way to maintain it with my limited knowledge.

I will strive to make this possible as quickly as possible.

🚮 Uninstalling

If, by any chance, due to unforeseen circumstances, you wish to uninstall, you can do so with the following command:

pip uninstall jobdam
