Installation

You need to have python-twisted-words installed you can install from source from here

http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/wiki/Downloads

or on Debian or Ubuntu installed directly from the apt repositories :

aptitude install python-twisted-words

Place the file irssi-script/xmpp-notify.pl in your ~/.irssi/scripts/autorun/ directory and place the file bin/xmpp-notify.py in /usr/local/bin/ (or somewhere else as long you adjust the irssi variable xmpp-notify.py to the proper path).

Config

• On the first run the xmpp-notify.py script will create a file in your home directory called ~/.xmpp-notify.ini containing:

  [auth]
  jid = your_jabber_id@jabber-domain.com
  password = your_password
  destination_jid = the_destination_jid@jabber-domain.com
  
  [misc]
  mynickname = mynick

• Fill them with the proper information and make sure the jid and destination_jid can talk to each others with a desktop client.
