Adium - Xtras - View Xtra: OkCupid

Description

This is a protocol plugin for using the OkCupid chat in Adium. It's based on the libpurple plugin at http://okcupid-pidgin.googlecode.com/ (which in turn is based off the Facebook plugin)

If you're not seeing your buddy list in 2.06, it could be an SSL error. You need to add
1
to your ~/Library/Application Support/Adium 2.0/Users/Default/libpurple/accounts.xml file (in the OkCupid section)

I tried the plugin with 1.3.6 and 1.4b9, it doesn't show in the "Add an account for" menu.

Would be nice if there was a preference to enable/disable new mail notification, as some other protocols support.

It appears the plugin was built as an Intel bundle only:

> file ~/Library/AppSupport/Adium 2.0/PlugIns/OkCupid.AdiumPlugin/Contents/MacOS/OkCupid
/Users/RJVB/Library/AppSupport/Adium 2.0/PlugIns/OkCupid.AdiumPlugin/Contents/MacOS/OkCupid: Mach-O bundle i386

which would explain why we see this in the Console.log:

i'm SOOO glad this exists. it still needs a little love, though. one thing i've noticed is that people who disable IM still show up as online in Adium and then i get a "Recipient is 'missing'" message when i try to IM them.

# by erterte on 03/09/10 at 03:01:34

I am having a problem that my OKC contacts now no longer show up in Adium. I'd been using the Xtra happily and without problem for a couple of days but suddenly, no dice. Any imput would be appreciated.

# by patddfan88 on 03/14/10 at 06:36:12

i'm having this issue as well... I also suspect this plugin causes Adium 1.4B17 to crash!

# by ddollhoff on 03/10/10 at 17:08:13

I have the same issue as erterte, any info?

# by berkleebassist on 03/11/10 at 15:26:51

I have the same issues as beej, erterte and ddollhoff: when it was working, I'd see people who had disabled their IM as being online, and now it doesn't seem to show anyone.

# by Queue on 03/11/10 at 21:57:56

Same issue as above. I am suspecting it was a change on the OKC side of things...

# by Queue on 03/13/10 at 02:09:41

I rescind my previous comment. I erased the xtra from ~LibraryApplication SupportAdium 2.0PlugIns, quit Adium, emptied the trash and reinstalled the xtra and all seems to be in good working order. Try that as a potential fix.

# by patddfan88 on 03/14/10 at 06:36:50

could this plugin cause Aduim 1.4b17 to crash?

# by patddfan88 on 04/29/10 at 05:58:05

well, it didn't work for me!

# by RJVB on 03/27/11 at 11:22:51

Any chance to get this synced to the pidgin plugin which has seen a couple of very recent updates? The xtra hasn't had any for about a year... (I'd try it myself if I could find the sourcecode..)

# by BigBrownChunx on 03/27/11 at 19:48:33

Already done :)

# by egeste on 10/09/11 at 06:02:48

If this plugin isn't working for you, follow the instructions in the description, but the actual file path is:

~/Library/Application Support/Adium 2.0/Users/Default/libpurple/accounts.xml

# by MagisterQuis on 03/19/13 at 22:59:31

I'm seeing a few random people show up in my contact list every couple of seconds (as well as people who've turned off chat).

Is the source for this xtra online anywhere?

# by BigBrownChunx on 03/19/13 at 23:41:56

Yes the source is available at https://code.google.com/p/okcupid-pidg...svn%2Ftrunk
I've made the changes in SVN to fix the server-side change of the random buddies, but I haven't yet built a new Adium plugin, sorry :(
