#magicwormhole — Public Fediverse posts

If anyone at #PyConUS sprints wants to try pair-programming remotely with https://github.com/magic-wormhole/shwim I'll be up here in Canada all day tomorrow and happy to pair on any Python thing (bonus points for #twisted, #magicWormhole or anything related)

We have Zizmor'd (https://zizmor.sh/ by https://infosec.exchange/@yossarian ) the Magic Wormhole GitHub actions.

Nothing too exciting (we still do analog releases) but nice to have green lights from a linting tool :)

https://github.com/magic-wormhole/magic-wormhole/pull/717

#python #magicWormhole

Once 0.8.0 is deployed, the "Welcome" message grows a new key.

Client implementations _should_ be tolerant of unknown keys in the Welcome, but worth checking your #magicWormhole implementation just to be sure.

Very niche market, but Magic Wormhole mailbox server releases 0.7.0 and 0.8.0 have been completed. Notes here: https://github.com/magic-wormhole/magic-wormhole-mailbox-server/blob/master/NEWS.md

The latest release should be deployed on the main / default Mailbox server in the next day or so

Ich stelle immer wieder fest, daß noch viel zu wenig Menschen magic-wormhole kennen.

qs aka quick-send - Tired of wrestling with overly complex file transfer tools? Solution, the hidden gem of A-to-B file transfers.

While alternatives like croc and magic-wormhole often suffer from frustrating UX—requiring extensive manuals, relay configurations, slowness, custom scripts, and firewall tweaks—qs focuses on simplicity and actually works.

Why qs stands out:

• Zero installation: Ships as a single binary without unnecessary bloat.
• Frictionless UX: No 50-page man pages or complex setup instructions; just run and transfer.
• Reliability: Cuts out the hours of frustration and failed attempts common with over-engineered solutions.

If you need a tool that simply does exactly what it is supposed to do, check out the project and its excellent feature comparison checklist here: https://github.com/maxomatic458/quic-send

Comment on your video about #FDroid

1. You don't need to install the F-Droid app targetting older Androids. You can directly install the #FDroidBasic apk, but you need to scroll around and ignore warnings
2. Add the #IzzyOnDroid repo to F-Droid. It is huge and has no weird rules.

I just found out recently that F-Droid has a single and very outdated #MagicWormhole app, while @IzzyOnDroid has 3!

Must have.

https://spectra.video/videos/watch/f1a76c98-8274-4c9d-889f-6b7263fcb574?isPeertubeContent=1

Please tell my why this is wrong https://github.com/magic-wormhole/magic-wormhole/issues/700

...or is there really no incremental migration path for all the #Python "sphinxcontrib" packages that use the "wrong" way to create namespace packages??

😱 😱

(This is like 3 yaks deep for me anyway: I just want #magicWormhole builds to work again, and the docs use sphinxcontrib-seqdiag to get nice sequence diagrams)

If you've previously tried https://github.com/magic-wormhole/shwim ShWiM and found that only the "host" could type (and not the guest), we have fixed that! :blobaww:

So, please try again! Also a couple other minor bugs fixed!

#magicWormhole

Have there been interesting developments in secure file transfer since magic wormhole? It's 10 years old, so great and tested, or maybe there's something else? I've heard of Croc and Portal but not sure if they are different in any way except small features and language preferences.

#MagicWormhole #Croc #p2p

Really happy with the internal architecture of Fowl's activity visualization: a series of "Message" objects that deterministically build the status state.

Thus I can easily have a "record" and "replay" option https://github.com/magic-wormhole/fowl/blob/main/src/fowl/cli.py#L462 which greatly helps when fiddling with the console visualizations (record one test-case, replay it until the output looks nice).

Thanks @fina for making me discover this particular Magic Wormhole client application for Android: https://github.com/wormhole-app/wormhole (not to be confused with similarly-named things like https://github.com/magic-wormhole/magic-wormhole)

…it's the only one I've seen actually work properly with the GNOME "Warp" Magic Wormhole app (https://apps.gnome.org/Warp/), unlike these:
* https://f-droid.org/packages/com.leastauthority.destiny/
* https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.pavelsof.wormhole/

Unfortunately it is not on #FDroid, that's why I never found it before.

#GNOME has a magic-wormhole GUI?! I was not aware! https://apps.gnome.org/en-GB/Warp/

https://github.com/meejah/fowl
https://github.com/meejah/shwim
https://git.sr.ht/~meejah/git-withme

Includes cool new ANSI logos from @littlebitspace which I'm personally very excited about :)

ShWiM in action.
Although this is between two terminals on the same computer, this works the same between any two computers (behind NATs, whatever).

Very excited about some new ANSI goodness coming in the next https://github.com/meejah/fowl release (along with some "real" enhancements and bug-fixes).

A local-only example of ShWiM in action (works the same if the two terminals are on different machines)

https://git.sr.ht/~meejah/git-withme

#magicWormhole #python

@meejah

Yeah, I've run into the can't push to checked out branch before as well in other cases. But even if you could, not sure I'd want to, unless it was a special option (when you're working with yourself, so a completely trusted other party).

Even if there was auto mapping of refs to a subtree, not sure how easy/hard it would be to prevent the other side from pushing to parts of the repo you don't want them touching.

#magicWormhole

@encthenet My main reason for doing it like this is so that "familiar" workflows (git push / git pull) can be used.

If you're literally doing peer-to-peer Git, you cannot push the same branch that your peer has checked out (which is both confusing and annoying).

Definitely open to ways of making this work better -- the real goal of course is peer-to-peer collaboration (and tech-demo of things possible over wormhole)

#magicWormhole

I have just released version 25.9.0 of ShWiM ("Shell With Me") for encrypted, peer-to-peer terminal sharing.

https://pypi.org/project/shwim/25.9.0/
https://github.com/meejah/shwim

#magicWormhole #infosec #shell

Announcing "SHWIM": Shell With Me, easy to use, end-to-end encrypted terminal sharing via tty-share and #magicWormhole

https://meejah.ca/blog/initial-shwim-release

https://github.com/meejah/shwim
https://pypi.org/project/shwim/

#python #infosec

The "hello world" of #p2p applications for #infosec is "chat", right?

Here we use Fowl to make end-to-end encrypted and durable (survive IP address changes) chat using "nc" and "telnet"...

#magicWormhole #twisted #python

fowl 25.7.0 is released.
https://pypi.org/project/fowl/25.7.0/

Extensively re-thought internal and external APIs, centered around giving each peer maximum control, while being safe by default.

There is now a usable Python + Twisted API for programmatic use: FowlCoop, fledge() and roost()

Coming next week: demo applications on top of this: "Git With Me" and "Shell With Me" for peer-to-peer git and terminal sharing (respectively)

#magicWormhole #p2p #python #twisted

ShWiM coming very soon for your peer-to-peer programming needs.

im looking for feedback on my project.

IMPORTANT NOTES (PLEASE READ!):
* this is NOT a product. It's for #testing and #demonstration purposes only.
* It has NOT been reviewed or audited. Do NOT use for sensitive data.
* All functionality demonstrated is experimental.
* This is NOT meant to replace robust solutions like #magicwormhole

Es gibt ein neueres Projekt namens #Packet, mit dem Dateien zwischen Linux- und Android-Geräten im lokalen Netzwerk verschickt werden können. (Ähnlich wie #magicwormhole)

Auf Android-Seite wird die Quick-Share-Funktion verwendet, das gegenseitige Entdecken passiert per Bluetooth. Hab es in beide Richtungen ausprobiert, lief einwandfrei.

As foretold by the mages, today marks the release of Magic Wormhole 0.19.0: https://pypi.org/project/magic-wormhole/0.19.0/

#magicWormhole #infosec #python

Anyone using the current #magicWormhole "Dilation" APIs?

(Meta-question: can I make PyPI or GitHub answer the question by telling me any packages that depend on an "extra" namely "wormhole[dilation]" instead of just "dilation"?)

#python

Fun fact: Using Magic Wormhole as a Python library is a pain in the ass.

Especially in "delegate mode". You need to provide a Twisted reactor, even if your application isn't using Twisted at all, you need to dig up the default mailbox server's address from the library's source code, and you need to create a bunch of callback methods you're not interested in on your Delegate object because else nothing will work.

Using the CLI is easier, even from Python code.

@paperdigits Oooooh, thank you for sending this along! I tried the Destiny app with the https://winden.app website to transfer files, and it worked great!

I also found and tried https://wormhole.app and https://webwormhole.io because I didn't realize that Magic Wormhole and Wormhole are two different things... 🫣 I really liked https://wormhole.app's QR code scan!

I'm not sure if I have posted about something similar before, but I have an app idea for KDE: a magic wormhole (https://github.com/magic-wormhole/magic-wormhole) client, like warp (https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/warp/).
