How to use gtalk/hangout on ubuntu terminal? [closed]


I've started using hangupshttps://github.com/tdryer/hangups

It's a google hangouts (not gtalk, but actual hangouts) terminal app written in python.

You can install it in Ubuntu with

#Ensure you have python pips installedsudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get -y install python-pippip3 install hangups


First, you could prove mcabber:

  • It is a small XMPP (Jabber) console client.
  • mcabber includes features such as SASL/SSL/TLS support, MUC (Multi-User Chat) support, history logging, command completion, OpenPGP encryption, OTR (Off-the-Record Messaging) support, dynamic modules and external action triggers.
  • mcabber is released under the GNU GPL, and has been tested on GNU/Linux, BSD, Mac OS X and Cygwin.

If it is not that what you look for, then:

First option

Not, if it is exactly what you look for, but it can serve to you as aid, I leave you like installing plugin in Ubuntu:

You can find in the page.

Next I also leave the information you:

"...**(I have put h tttp but really it is HTTP, it changes it before using it)To get started, press Ctrl+Alt+T to open terminal, then follow the steps below:

1.) Run this command to add the official repository:

sudo sh -c 'echo "deb h ttp://dl.google.com/linux/talkplugin/deb/ stable main" >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-talkplugin.list'

2.) Download and install the key:

wget -q -O - h ttps://dl-ssl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub | sudo apt-key add -

3.) Update the package lists to make it available:

sudo apt-get update

4.) Finally install the plugin via Synaptic Package Manager, or by this command:

sudo apt-get install google-talkplugin...//Font: h ttp://ubuntuhandbook.org"

Second option

Another way, to use gtalk/hangout in Ubuntu would be installing this plugin of chrome, in the direction.


I hope that it serves to you as aid, a greeting, Pau.
