freebsd-ports/net-im/nheko/pkg-descr

The motivation behind the project is to provide a native desktop app
for Matrix that feels more like a mainstream chat app (Riot, Telegram)
and less like an IRC client.
New port net-im/nheko Third time's the charm for Qt-based Matrix clients; this one looks pretty good and seems to work pretty well. It also offers registration for new users, and understands both plain (matrix.org) and premium (modular.im) accounts. The port contains the following yuckiness: - a hack to change <json.hpp> to <nlohmann/json.hpp>, since the CMake bits in nheko don't actually go look for it. - a (GH_TUPLE) copy of lmdb++, which is #included by the C++ code, but CMake doesn't go looking for it. - a (GH_TUPLE) copy of tweeny, which is used by the C++ code, but CMake doesn't go looking for it. Since this is a source copy, the header isn't in the tweeny/ directory (where it gets installed), so an extra hack is called for to provide that subdirectory. I considered making tweeny a separate port (many Linuxen do), but this would be the only consumer, and it doesn't even consume the whole library but only parts of one header. 2019-03-25 22:04:55 +00:00			`The motivation behind the project is to provide a native desktop app`
