Tyrs - NCurses Twitter and Identica client

Nic0 · 2011-11-15 11:21:00

Hi geekmiki,

I knew about this really weird behavior, someone once report it to me, but unfortunately, I wasn't able to figure it out, I don't know where it may come from, as I haven't write in tho code to put some "q"s just to annoyed some people

There is a quick way to avoid this by removing those borders as follow :

[params]
tweet_border  = 0

No more border that it would mean no more "q"s, I know it isn't satisfying, and wish I could fix this one!

Hope it does the trick, thanks for noticing it.

Is there something in the config to stop it from cutting off some urls? Like it does in this image:

Nic0 · 2011-11-18 00:30:46

Hi,

The issue probably come from the version of python-twitter, I think you're using the 0.8.1 (yaourt -Qi python-twitter), and this behavior was corrected with the last release (0.8.2) of python-twitter (the API I'm using). I had this behavior a couple of time reported before, that why I'll go for it.

Could you try to update the API and let me know, I flagged the package out-of-date few months ago, but I should indeed either reach the maintainer to get it right or try to get this package orphan.

Thank to noticing it, and please keep me update

EDIT: Ce paquet a été étiqueté comme périmé. (Tue, 31 May 2011 19:46:53 +0000)
Ok.. it was maybe more that a couple of months
(sorry about my French)

Thanks Nic0, I upgraded python-twitter to 0.8.2 and that no longer seems to be a problem. I scrolled through everything until I got to the tweet I posted the pic of, neither it nor any other urls I saw were cut off.

Latest tyrs package from the AUR; I get the same thing whether I used the git or stable:

Which service do you want to use?

1. Twitter
2. Identi.ca

Hi,

I've tried few instants ago, and it works for me.

The problem come from the Twitter answer, as it shown an 401 error. (
Either it come from them, it might happen some time that they're have troubles with them service, but if you tried several time, at several moments, then it come from something else.
It could come from a missing dependency, even if I'm surprise that their is no ImportError shown. You might make sure python2-oauth is installed.

I think your right, seems like it was just a twitter error as it is working now. Thanks!

When trying to run tyrs, I get this error:

$ tyrs
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/tyrs", line 11, in <module>
    from tyrs.tyrs import main
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/tyrs/tyrs.py", line 33, in <module>
    import tweets
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/tyrs/tweets.py", line 19, in <module>
    import urwid
ImportError: No module named urwid

It happens if I use tyrs or tyrs-git. Urwid is installed, as are all of the other dependencies for tyrs.

Nic0 · 2011-12-28 16:26:00

Hi, what happen is urwid is now package for python2 and 3 since few days ago. As it follow now the python naming convention, it's not anymore python-urwid, but python2-urwid. I updated the package build for Tyrs, and I'll try to notify it for the maintainer of tyrs-git.

Thanks for the feedback.

When I installed python2-urwid everything worked as it should. Thank you!

Getting this errors with both tyrs-git and tyrs:

python2-urwid is installed:

Nic0 · 2011-12-30 10:37:59

@ethail, do you have any colors in your [colors] section, if so, maybe you still have numbers value, as now Tyrs take string values, due to urwid front end.
Just delete the colors section on your ~/.config/tyrs/tyrs.cfg file. If there is nothing in here, and still crashed, let me know.

Thanks ethail

Working now. Thank you Nic0

Nic0, I'm having a problem with Tyrs (v 0.6.2 from the AUR). Whenever I try to see a conversation thread, it splits out the following error:

Any ideas on how to solve this?

It's been awhile since I haven't done any works on Tyrs.

But, the good news is that Tyrs has been forked, since a couple of months. It comes with improvements and new features. So if you liked Tyrs, I highly recommend to check out Turses!
