2019-12-03T00:00:30 #kisslinux <atkka> I hope I can contribute someday
2019-12-03T00:02:08 #kisslinux <dylanara1> Sounds good :)
2019-12-03T02:20:55 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> suppose i have this:
2019-12-03T02:21:06 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> `su {`
2019-12-03T02:21:17 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> ` su -c "$*"`
2019-12-03T02:21:23 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> `}`
2019-12-03T02:22:04 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> how should i sanitize arguments having special characters like `'` or `|`?
2019-12-03T02:23:28 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> commands like `su wpa_passphrase 'name' 'pass' >> /etc/blah/blah` won't work and i have to escape the `'`s everytime
2019-12-03T03:28:23 #kisslinux <konimex> assuming ` means backticks, why not use $()?
2019-12-03T04:00:56 #kisslinux <Crestwave> lieuxnoir: What shell is that?
2019-12-03T04:02:34 #kisslinux <Crestwave> Why not use an alias?
2019-12-03T04:04:23 #kisslinux <Crestwave> dylanaraps: LC_CTYPE=C is needed to consider characters as single-byte
2019-12-03T04:05:54 #kisslinux <Crestwave> It would be faster if you used a regular variable instead of running `set` each time, although I'm not sure how much the difference is for that program
2019-12-03T04:18:46 #kisslinux <Crestwave> Also, maybe consider (it's up to preference, just consider) [:alnum:]?
2019-12-03T05:38:51 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> @koni
2019-12-03T05:39:14 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> konimex: no, i just surrounded them with backticks
2019-12-03T05:39:32 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> i was referring to single quotes and pipe symbols
2019-12-03T05:40:22 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> su { su -c "$*" }
2019-12-03T05:40:38 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> now if i run
2019-12-03T05:41:07 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> su wpa_passphrase 'somename' 'somepassword'
2019-12-03T05:41:32 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> the single quotations will ruin the command
2019-12-03T05:42:06 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> because sometimes i have to use them because special characters like $ gets read as variables when im using them as passwords
2019-12-03T05:42:40 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> something like myhardpassword123withspecialchars@#$@#$@#%
2019-12-03T05:42:51 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> so i have to use single quotes
2019-12-03T05:43:12 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> i don't know
2019-12-03T05:43:16 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> maybe im missing something
2019-12-03T05:47:16 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> @dylanaraps: will you be replacing wpa_supplicant with eiwd anytime soon?
2019-12-03T06:08:02 #kisslinux <Crestwave> lieuxnoir: Can you answer my questions?
2019-12-03T08:25:07 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> lieuxnoir: You can just swap it out really easily.
2019-12-03T08:25:51 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Once eiwd is more mature I'll add it to the installation guide alongside wpa_supplicant/dhcpcd.
2019-12-03T10:11:32 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> Crestwave: it's busybox ash
2019-12-03T10:11:38 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> @cres
2019-12-03T10:12:21 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> Crestwave: because i might add something to the function that could sanitize the arguments
2019-12-03T10:26:36 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> alias su='su -c "$*"' does not work
2019-12-03T10:52:45 #kisslinux <Crestwave> That's not valid ash?
2019-12-03T10:53:06 #kisslinux <Crestwave> You're missing the parenthesis in the function declaration and a command separator before the closing brace
2019-12-03T10:53:24 #kisslinux <Crestwave> Additionally, you're naming the function the same thing as the command you're executing, so it would inifitely recurse
2019-12-03T10:53:52 #kisslinux <Crestwave> That's also not how you use aliases
2019-12-03T10:54:01 #kisslinux <Crestwave> It's `alias su='su -c'`
2019-12-03T10:54:46 #kisslinux <Crestwave> Although I would personally name it something else like `alias sudo='su -c'`
2019-12-03T10:55:08 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> thanks, but im asking on how to properly escape special characters on a command
2019-12-03T10:55:30 #kisslinux <Crestwave> printf %q or ${var@Q} on Bash
2019-12-03T10:56:31 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> can i do it something like this on my current function?
2019-12-03T10:56:42 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> command=$(printf %q "$*")
2019-12-03T10:56:50 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> then su -c $command
2019-12-03T10:56:53 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> ?
2019-12-03T10:57:10 #kisslinux <Crestwave> That would subject it to word splitting and globbing
2019-12-03T10:57:48 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> yes, you're right
2019-12-03T10:57:56 #kisslinux <Crestwave> Wait
2019-12-03T10:58:06 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> but in order for `su -c` to properly work
2019-12-03T10:58:13 #kisslinux <Crestwave> Since it quotes it globbing and such should be fine.
2019-12-03T10:58:23 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> the commands should be enclosed in single quotations
2019-12-03T10:58:32 #kisslinux <Crestwave> You should probably use `command=$(printf %q "$@")`, though
2019-12-03T10:59:18 #kisslinux <Crestwave> Hm or printf ' %q' "$@"
2019-12-03T11:00:19 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> su invalid option 'b'
2019-12-03T11:00:26 #kisslinux <Crestwave> Wait couldn't you just use sudo() { su -c "$@"; } in the first place?
2019-12-03T11:00:48 #kisslinux <Crestwave> Ah the problem is that you need to quote arguments to su, then quote it again
2019-12-03T11:00:49 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> yes i can
2019-12-03T11:01:30 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> yes, exactly
2019-12-03T11:01:44 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> using your function
2019-12-03T11:02:06 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> and together with wpa_passphrase
2019-12-03T11:02:18 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> it'll look something like
2019-12-03T11:03:17 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> sudo wpa_passphrase 'SSID' 'pa$wordwithspecialchars'
2019-12-03T11:04:50 #kisslinux <Crestwave> I'm getting confused by all this but `sudo() { cmd=$1; shift; args=$(printf %q "$*"); su -c "$cmd $args"; }` should work, I think?
2019-12-03T11:05:03 #kisslinux <Crestwave> Nope
2019-12-03T11:06:45 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> if the command issued in su is not enclosed in single quotes, it will not work
2019-12-03T11:06:57 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> su -c command works
2019-12-03T11:07:06 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> su -c command args will not
2019-12-03T11:07:20 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> su -c 'command args' will work
2019-12-03T11:07:43 #kisslinux <Crestwave> Well `sudo() { su -c "${*@Q}"; }` works in Bash, I think. I'm just getting confused translating it to POSIX
2019-12-03T11:08:14 #kisslinux <Crestwave> Because printf %q would escape the spaces between arguments
2019-12-03T11:09:40 #kisslinux <Crestwave> Try `sudo() { su -c "$(printf ' %q' "$@")"; }`
2019-12-03T11:10:11 #kisslinux <Crestwave> Hah that's actually what I said earlier. Seems to work, though
2019-12-03T11:33:25 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> what's the difference between $@ and $*
2019-12-03T11:33:31 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> they seem to work the same
2019-12-03T12:05:01 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> lieuxnoir: '$@' expands each element and '$*' expands to the argument list as a single string (split on IFS).
2019-12-03T12:05:18 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Man I worded that badly
2019-12-03T14:04:08 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> E5ten: I've made iwd populate a file (/var/lib/iwd/scan) with the scan results (updated on each scan).
2019-12-03T14:04:45 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Looks like this: https://termbin.com/r6w1
2019-12-03T14:05:21 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> It's a start and I'm lazy
2019-12-03T14:05:23 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> :^)
2019-12-03T14:10:51 #kisslinux <qtpie> will there be any errors if I update linux-headers but not the kernel?
2019-12-03T14:11:45 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> There shouldn't be. What's the version difference like.
2019-12-03T14:12:01 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> ?*
2019-12-03T14:12:11 #kisslinux <qtpie> i'm running kernel 5.4 and the latest headers(and kernel) version is 5.4.1
2019-12-03T14:12:39 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> It's fine.
2019-12-03T14:12:52 #kisslinux <qtpie> I see. Thanks
2019-12-03T14:13:08 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> The only time you might have trouble is with a larger version gap.
2019-12-03T14:13:27 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> 3.X.X->4.X.X->5.X.X
2019-12-03T14:13:38 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Though it could still work regardless.
2019-12-03T14:13:50 #kisslinux <qtpie> noted
2019-12-03T14:13:56 #kisslinux <qtpie> i won't be waiting this long anyway
2019-12-03T14:14:00 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> You can always lock the package version if you like.
2019-12-03T14:14:10 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> The headers are forwards compatible.
2019-12-03T14:28:45 #kisslinux <qtpie> tmux is failing to build for me
2019-12-03T14:29:09 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Error message?
2019-12-03T14:29:35 #kisslinux <qtpie> https://pst.moe/paste/emvxko
2019-12-03T14:30:55 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Hm. Builds fine for me.
2019-12-03T14:31:24 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Default package? No changes made to it?
2019-12-03T14:31:41 #kisslinux <qtpie> yes it's the default package
2019-12-03T14:31:46 #kisslinux <qtpie> didn't make any changes
2019-12-03T14:31:55 #kisslinux <qtpie> ran an update now and saw that it failed
2019-12-03T14:32:22 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Found this: https://github.com/tmux/tmux/issues/39
2019-12-03T14:32:58 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Very helpful...
2019-12-03T14:35:12 #kisslinux <qtpie> took me a full minute to find out why it was showing that issue as being referenced in the other thread
2019-12-03T14:35:39 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Lol yeah
2019-12-03T14:35:56 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> The file containing the error hasn't seen changes in 9 months fyi.
2019-12-03T14:35:59 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Odd.
2019-12-03T14:36:50 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Which version are you trying to build?
2019-12-03T14:37:10 #kisslinux <qtpie> tmux 3.0-1 ==> 3.0a-1
2019-12-03T14:37:20 #kisslinux <qtpie> something is weird
2019-12-03T14:37:38 #kisslinux <qtpie> -> sudo kiss update
2019-12-03T14:37:41 #kisslinux <qtpie> -> Updating repositories

2019-12-03T14:37:45 #kisslinux <qtpie> !> $KISS_PATH needs to be set
2019-12-03T14:37:47 #kisslinux <qtpie> /usr/bin/kiss: line 846: can't open /version: no such file
2019-12-03T14:37:56 #kisslinux <qtpie> works if I use su and then kiss update
2019-12-03T14:38:06 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Don't run kiss as root.
2019-12-03T14:38:19 #kisslinux <qtpie> ah
2019-12-03T14:39:30 #kisslinux <qtpie> let me try the build script for version 3.0-1
2019-12-03T14:39:36 #kisslinux <qtpie> see if that is compiling
2019-12-03T14:42:12 #kisslinux <qtpie> how can I try an older version in kiss?
2019-12-03T14:42:17 #kisslinux <qtpie> git checkout?
2019-12-03T14:49:38 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> revert the commit by checking out the previous commit, run 'kiss b tmux' and then checkout master again.
2019-12-03T14:49:57 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Or clone the repositories again, checkout the commit and build from the newly cloned repo.
2019-12-03T14:50:03 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> There's a lot of ways to do it.
2019-12-03T14:52:06 #kisslinux <qtpie> it is failing for 3.0 as well
2019-12-03T14:55:29 #kisslinux <qtpie> i think i know what it is
2019-12-03T14:55:38 #kisslinux <qtpie> i just updated linux-firmware
2019-12-03T14:55:54 #kisslinux <qtpie> checking the configure log of tmux i see this line:
2019-12-03T14:56:03 #kisslinux <qtpie> >checking for util.h... no
2019-12-03T14:56:50 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> So util.h is missing from the latest headers?
2019-12-03T14:58:22 #kisslinux <qtpie> idk. i'll update my kernel to 5.4.1 and reboot
2019-12-03T14:58:28 #kisslinux <qtpie> will see how it goes then
2019-12-03T14:58:38 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> OK
2019-12-03T14:59:28 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> brb
2019-12-03T15:01:44 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> dylanaraps: i think i got your brightness script working
2019-12-03T15:02:04 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> because i noticed that it was setting wrong values
2019-12-03T15:02:47 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> can you check if this is okay:
2019-12-03T15:03:39 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> `bri=$((cur ${2:-=} max * $1 / 100))`
2019-12-03T15:35:54 #kisslinux <qtpie> dylanaraps, tmux is still not building
2019-12-03T15:36:26 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Interesting. You might want to open an issue upstream.
2019-12-03T15:36:33 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Is that util.h file indeed missing?
2019-12-03T15:36:34 #kisslinux <qtpie> cool
2019-12-03T15:37:45 #kisslinux <qtpie> i don't see it in /usr/include/linux
2019-12-03T15:39:43 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Let me check mine.
2019-12-03T15:40:05 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> I don't have it either and tmux builds.
2019-12-03T15:43:31 #kisslinux <qtpie> i'll open an issue on their github in a few hours
2019-12-03T15:46:28 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Sounds good
2019-12-03T16:04:11 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> dylanaraps do you also use udev rules to control the backlight?
2019-12-03T16:07:37 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Nope
2019-12-03T16:07:57 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> printf %s "$bri" > "$bri_path/brightness"
2019-12-03T16:08:00 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> From my script.
2019-12-03T16:08:21 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> but doesn't it need root?
2019-12-03T16:08:33 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> > ::once:/bin/chmod a+rw /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness
2019-12-03T16:08:37 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> In my /etc/inittab.
2019-12-03T16:09:01 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Sets the write permission at boot.
2019-12-03T16:09:32 #kisslinux <lieuxnoir> ah, neat
2019-12-03T16:12:52 #kisslinux <E5ten> Nice (about the scan results thing)
2019-12-03T16:18:29 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Yup
2019-12-03T16:18:42 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Also now populates a file with the currently connected SSID.
2019-12-03T16:26:24 #kisslinux <E5ten> 👍️
2019-12-03T16:33:35 #kisslinux <E5ten> oh no wonder my backlight control hasn't been working, I'm an idiot, I didn't do anything with mdev to give myself perms after switching off udev
2019-12-03T16:53:03 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> lol

2019-12-03T17:04:22 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Had to rewrite a bunch of patches.
2019-12-03T17:04:34 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> There's a lot more rust shit in this version.
2019-12-03T17:04:39 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Still Python 2 :(
2019-12-03T17:04:48 #kisslinux <E5ten> :(
2019-12-03T17:04:56 #kisslinux <E5ten> how much python2 though
2019-12-03T17:05:52 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> The Firefox codebase contains around 500,000 lines of Python 2
2019-12-03T17:05:58 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Dunno how much has been ported
2019-12-03T17:06:01 #kisslinux <E5ten> jesusss
2019-12-03T17:06:08 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Hang on
2019-12-03T17:06:16 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> I've got a link to a blog post by a mozilla dev
2019-12-03T17:06:19 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> You'll like it
2019-12-03T17:06:36 #kisslinux <E5ten> I'm scared

2019-12-03T17:07:18 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> My number was off. :P
2019-12-03T17:09:12 #kisslinux <E5ten> the real solution shouldn't be python2-->python3 it should be purging python :>)
2019-12-03T17:18:02 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Of course
2019-12-03T17:39:07 #kisslinux <E5ten> why does curl have a make dep on perl?
2019-12-03T17:41:40 #kisslinux <E5ten> and for a less kisslinux specific question, why does perl exist?

2019-12-03T19:19:19 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Fixed
2019-12-03T19:19:55 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> My Firefox beta build failed. :(
2019-12-03T19:30:32 #kisslinux <E5ten> damn :(
2019-12-03T19:31:08 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> I didn't keep logs either :^)
2019-12-03T19:31:17 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Running it again now.
2019-12-03T19:31:30 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> (I don't use scrollback in my terminals)
2019-12-03T19:32:48 #kisslinux <E5ten> yeah scrollbackless terminals are uh a little too far into the simple zone for me
2019-12-03T19:36:36 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> I just pipe to 'less' or use '| tee file' to display to the terminal and save to a file.
2019-12-03T19:39:06 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> For something as simple as a terminal, man do most terminal emulators get it wrong.
2019-12-03T19:39:14 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> VTE based terminals are terrible.
2019-12-03T19:39:40 #kisslinux <E5ten> I use alacritty
2019-12-03T19:39:54 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Is it really as fast as it claims to be?
2019-12-03T19:40:05 #kisslinux <E5ten> Yeah
2019-12-03T19:40:10 #kisslinux <E5ten> It's definitely a noticeable difference
2019-12-03T19:40:17 #kisslinux <E5ten> Enough to keep me on it despite the rust
2019-12-03T19:40:35 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Seen this?: https://github.com/jwilm/alacritty/pull/798
2019-12-03T19:41:09 #kisslinux <E5ten> More benchmarks have been done since
2019-12-03T19:41:29 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Yeah
2019-12-03T19:41:43 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> I laugh at his reply tough
2019-12-03T19:42:04 #kisslinux <E5ten> And better ones too, like ones specifically designed to test elements of terminal speed
2019-12-03T19:43:09 #kisslinux <E5ten> Like on the thing he links he compares to urxvt kitty st and termite, and I feel like that's enough terminals for it to be a pretty conclusive statement
2019-12-03T19:43:59 #kisslinux <retard> "Alacritty, the OpenGL terminal emulator written in Rust"
2019-12-03T19:44:03 #kisslinux <retard> pass
2019-12-03T19:44:05 #kisslinux <E5ten> Cuz termite is probably representative of speed for all VTE terminals, and even if it isn't there's no chance the others are close to as fast cuz they aren't GPU accelerated and they're all bloated, so they don't get the speed boost st does from being light and they don't get the speed boost alacritty and kitty do from being GPU accelerated
2019-12-03T19:44:10 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> xterm would've been nice too though
2019-12-03T19:44:27 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Despite its bloat it's surprisingly fast.
2019-12-03T19:45:54 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Input latency is another factor: https://github.com/jwilm/alacritty/issues/673#issuecomment-459342135
2019-12-03T19:46:01 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> (Test results of various terminals)
2019-12-03T19:47:35 #kisslinux <E5ten> fair enough, idk where it's at in that regard right now but anecdotally I don't notice a problem with it
2019-12-03T19:48:34 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> It's been a while since I tried alacritty.
2019-12-03T19:48:40 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> I'll build it once firefox is done
2019-12-03T19:49:38 #kisslinux <E5ten> nice

2019-12-03T20:00:15 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> oops
2019-12-03T20:02:05 #kisslinux <E5ten> no ccache?
2019-12-03T20:02:17 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> I use it
2019-12-03T20:02:23 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Doesn't support rust though.
2019-12-03T20:02:28 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Which takes up the first hour.
2019-12-03T20:02:29 #kisslinux <E5ten> sccache
2019-12-03T20:02:49 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Rust support for that is iffy too
2019-12-03T20:02:56 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Though it is meant for Firefox
2019-12-03T20:03:07 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> There we go, rust stuff finished.
2019-12-03T20:03:10 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> > 41:56.64 Finished release [optimized] target(s) in 39m 41s
2019-12-03T20:03:27 #kisslinux <E5ten> I only use it for rust, definitely improves the build time a fair bit even if it's not great
2019-12-03T20:04:16 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Oh god, the error better not be in the vendored dav1d crap
2019-12-03T20:05:56 #kisslinux <E5ten> because it would be stupid/annoying if it was or because it'd be harder to fix if it was and for either response, why?
2019-12-03T20:06:41 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> It just spat out an endless stream of warnings
2019-12-03T20:06:58 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Any error is annoying for me to fix. :P
2019-12-03T20:07:07 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> OK
2019-12-03T20:07:10 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> We errored
2019-12-03T20:08:14 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> > error: duplicate case value
2019-12-03T20:08:17 #kisslinux <E5ten> well I meant stupid/annoying relative to the error being somewhere else not just in general
2019-12-03T20:08:26 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> ooo
2019-12-03T20:08:32 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> This might be my fault.
2019-12-03T20:08:35 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Heh
2019-12-03T20:08:55 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> I think I rewrote a patch which isn't needed anymore.
2019-12-03T20:09:08 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> ie I added code which is now already there
2019-12-03T20:09:32 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> This is the best case
2019-12-03T20:10:05 #kisslinux <E5ten> nice lol

2019-12-03T20:11:36 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> A musl fix in Firefox
2019-12-03T20:11:45 #kisslinux <E5ten> oooo very nice
2019-12-03T20:12:14 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Whole patch can go
2019-12-03T20:12:17 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> neat
2019-12-03T20:39:55 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> E5ten: holy shit. iwd kinda has file based IPC right now.
2019-12-03T20:40:32 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> rename the connected .psk file to .psk.bak and you immediately disconnect.
2019-12-03T20:40:38 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> (as an example)
2019-12-03T20:40:49 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Rename it back to .psk and you immediately connect.
2019-12-03T20:41:05 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Can very easily write a simple client around that. :^)
2019-12-03T20:41:45 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Pair this with my changes for scan results/currently connected. :D
2019-12-03T20:42:23 #kisslinux <E5ten> awesome

2019-12-03T20:53:09 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> ;)
2019-12-03T20:53:28 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Output needs aligning but it works.
2019-12-03T21:01:27 #kisslinux <E5ten> 👌
2019-12-03T21:16:31 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> E5ten: https://termbin.com/zpfp
2019-12-03T21:16:36 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Very barebones right now.
2019-12-03T21:16:48 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> connect/disconnect still need some thought.
2019-12-03T21:17:30 #kisslinux <E5ten> very nice that it's starting to come together though
2019-12-03T21:18:29 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Yes
2019-12-03T21:18:40 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Through abuse of the configuration file handling
2019-12-03T21:19:15 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> :P
2019-12-03T21:25:21 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> https://termbin.com/kf0i
2019-12-03T21:27:37 #kisslinux <E5ten> I assume auth only deals with non-enterprise networks?
2019-12-03T21:27:50 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Yup
2019-12-03T21:28:00 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Even Arch recommend setting up enterprise networks by hand.
2019-12-03T21:28:13 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Dunno if the iwctl client actually handles them.
2019-12-03T21:28:25 #kisslinux <E5ten> I don't think it does
2019-12-03T21:28:43 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> It's something I *could* implement.
2019-12-03T21:28:52 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> I just don't have a test network to auth with.
2019-12-03T22:10:46 #kisslinux <E5ten> I don't even think I mentioned this here, but when I was switching to mdev, which requires using xf86-input-{keyboard,mouse,synaptics} cuz both evdev and libinput require udev, I saw that in git master xf86-input-keyboard actually removed linux support, meaning that come next release (which could be forever away because it sees absolutely no development) xorg will not be usable without udev, period
2019-12-03T22:11:25 #kisslinux <E5ten> if that release ever does come I'm just gonna revert the removal though
2019-12-03T22:12:14 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Great
2019-12-03T22:12:37 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Good thing is that you can either revert the commit through a patch or just stick to an older release.
2019-12-03T22:12:58 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> I laugh when I see that the BSDs pull in dbus for Firefox.
2019-12-03T22:13:05 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> It's kinda crazy
2019-12-03T22:13:23 #kisslinux <E5ten> not a hard removal to revert cuz the os-specific things are in individual files
2019-12-03T22:14:03 #kisslinux <E5ten> so it's just build system changes and file removals, no C files are actually changed
2019-12-03T22:15:22 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> wow
2019-12-03T22:17:55 #kisslinux <E5ten> the mdev-like-a-boss guy thinks that the person/people behind the change just didn't realize that evdev and libinput both require udev, so he brought it up in #xorg-devel and hopefully it was just that they didn't realize and they're willing to revert
2019-12-03T22:24:44 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Ah
2019-12-03T22:25:16 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> https://github.com/dylanaraps/eiwd/blob/master/iwc
2019-12-03T22:25:24 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Initial work done
2019-12-03T22:26:23 #kisslinux <E5ten> that's what I'm talkin' about
2019-12-03T22:27:33 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> This can also get rid of iwd_passphrase as it automates the entire process.
2019-12-03T22:27:36 #kisslinux <E5ten> iwctl deals with non-root access to /var/lib/iwd through dbus right?
2019-12-03T22:27:51 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> iwctl doesn't touch the files directly iirc.
2019-12-03T22:27:53 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> iwd does
2019-12-03T22:28:03 #kisslinux <E5ten> ah
2019-12-03T22:28:04 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> (through messages sent via dbus)
2019-12-03T22:29:33 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> I do all of the error handling early so the functions are nice and simple.
2019-12-03T22:29:54 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> find_network() is a little messy
2019-12-03T22:30:14 #kisslinux <E5ten> stty echo icanon leaves me unable to press enter for some reason
2019-12-03T22:30:31 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Huh
2019-12-03T22:30:36 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Hang on
2019-12-03T22:30:52 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> (Should just be 'stty echo')
2019-12-03T22:31:09 #kisslinux <E5ten> what does icanon do?
2019-12-03T22:31:31 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Basically, whether or not input requires 'Enter'.
2019-12-03T22:31:55 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> I use it in pash to read a single byte without Enter
2019-12-03T22:32:10 #kisslinux <E5ten> makes sense
2019-12-03T22:32:54 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Replacing 20k lines of C with a simple shell script feels good
2019-12-03T22:33:09 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> I know functionality won't be 100% identical but still
2019-12-03T22:33:30 #kisslinux <E5ten> yeah that's pretty great
2019-12-03T22:34:40 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Now what's tricky is disconnection. If a network conf file is moved out of /var/lib/iwd you disconnect.
2019-12-03T22:35:31 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> What happens to the conf files we leave in that directory?
2019-12-03T22:35:55 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> We can't just leave them there if that makes sense.
2019-12-03T22:36:28 #kisslinux <E5ten> I feel like you might have to implement more complex IPC for the connection/disconnection to not be janky...
2019-12-03T22:36:29 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> They can also just be renamed (ssid.psk -> ssid.psk.disc)
2019-12-03T22:37:12 #kisslinux <E5ten> like I don't love moving configs between .bak and not for connect
2019-12-03T22:38:00 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> I've figured it out.
2019-12-03T22:38:03 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> I get what you mean.
2019-12-03T22:39:14 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> I just want to push out a simple client for now.
2019-12-03T22:39:44 #kisslinux <E5ten> yeah that completely makes sense, I meant long term
2019-12-03T22:39:50 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Oh yeah
2019-12-03T22:40:06 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> I still need to fully wrap my head around the codebase.
2019-12-03T22:41:06 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> I'm behind on some offline and unrelated work too.
2019-12-03T22:41:32 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> So pushing some kind of client now-ish is my priority.
2019-12-03T22:42:01 #kisslinux <E5ten> oh man I feel that, I've got a project due tonight at midnight and a couple due tomorrow and I just keep procrastinating
2019-12-03T22:44:19 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Heh
2019-12-03T22:44:26 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> I have too much fun with this stuff.
2019-12-03T22:45:22 #kisslinux <E5ten> ikr
2019-12-03T22:47:15 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Anything missing from the current option list?
2019-12-03T22:49:43 #kisslinux <E5ten> uhhh iwctl has a ton of subcommands iirc
2019-12-03T22:50:04 #kisslinux <E5ten> status is one of them I can remember off the top of my head
2019-12-03T22:50:51 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> In terms of things that are core functionality?
2019-12-03T22:50:54 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> The base basically.
2019-12-03T22:52:10 #kisslinux <E5ten> scan in iwctl triggers a scan, get-networks list currently available networks (like iwc's scan), but I don't think that or status are really doable before more complex IPC is implemented so I think this is good for now
2019-12-03T22:53:06 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> OK
2019-12-03T22:53:09 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> Thanks
2019-12-03T23:11:35 #kisslinux <dylanaraps> ooo
