signal-cli VS Signal-Server

Not official but this works darn well: https://github.com/AsamK/signal-cli

If you want one for just personal use; this works well: https://github.com/AsamK/signal-cli

Just sign up with a Twilio number (using voice call) and you can make your own bot.

Here is my docker compose, maybe it is helpful: signal: #registerung tutorial # signal-cli --username +12345678 register --voice --captcha censored # https://github.com/AsamK/signal-cli/wiki/Registration-with-captcha # https://signalcaptchas.org/registration/generate.html IN CHROME # signal-cli -u +12345678 verify 123456 # signal-cli -u +1234567 send -m "This is a message" +12345678 #curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"message": "bliblob", "number": "+41824174983", "recipients": ["+21412430"]}' 'http://signal:8080/v2/send' #external testing image: bbernhard/signal-cli-rest-api:latest container_name: signal restart: unless-stopped hostname: signal networks: - monitoring volumes: - /docker/prometheus/signal/client:/root/.local/share/signal-cli - /docker/prometheus/signal/client:/home/.local/share/signal-cli labels: - com.centurylinklabs.watchtower.enable=true environment: - USE_NATIVE=0 signalweb: # curl -X POST localhost:9100/api/v2/alertmanager -d '{"alerts": [{"status": "firing","labels": {"alertname": "test"},"annotations": {"message": "Test alert."}}]}' image: registry.gitlab.com/schlauerlauer/alertmanager-webhook-signal:latest container_name: signalweb restart: unless-stopped hostname: signalweb networks: - monitoring volumes: - /docker/prometheus/signal/web/config.yml:/root/config.yaml labels: - com.centurylinklabs.watchtower.enable=true

Yes, using the signal-cli program. It has a built in JSON RPC API that can be used to develop application integrations

Last commit was 2 days ago so it should still work: https://github.com/AsamK/signal-cli

Sorry to hear. Then the cheap backup may be a Signal CLI forwarded over to mqtt CLI

build, install and configure/register signal-cli. The code snippet below assumes you are running it in multi-account mode, but I'll leave a comment where it matters

No official API that is public from what I can tell, but appears this works https://github.com/AsamK/signal-cli

> They could at least BSL the server code and allow others to verify the server code and host but not compete.

This is exactly what they do (except they use AGPL): https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-Server

https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-Server/blob/main/service/src/main/java/org/whispersystems/textsecuregcm/push/APNSender.java for APNs push notification payloads

git clone https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-Server.git

yes it is available here https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-Server/blob/main/service/pom.xml

You could also start your own signal server, but with blackjack, and hookers

The fact that it locks you into using their servers, does not distribute on F-Droid (only Google Play OR an APK with an insecure update mechanism), and has a completely closed-source "abusive message filter" module server side, that could functionally be used for censorship, storing messages for future decryption, or any other number of nefarious purposes - we have no idea since it's not open source (https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-Server/blob/main/.gitmod...).

Additionally, you cannot distribute branded forks or Signal, and if you do fork it, your fork is not allowed to connect to Signal's "official" OWS (open whisper systems) servers - hostility to federation should be viewed with prejudice and suspicion at the very least, it suggests a vested interest in a single point of failure (or control), which goes against user interests.

It’s actually the signal server that isn’t reproducible because of the abusive message filter that’s in a private repository. It’s clear as day here: https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-Server
