Alternatively one could write an input method that talks to maliit's server or to talk to fcitx or ibus. I'd go the uim route first though as this allows to figure out the layouts, etc.

@ivon852 @bart #uim supports #pinyin as well. It's a matter of configuration and adding a proper layout (and then work from there to fix the remaining issues outlined in ).

It seems uim is not packaged on alpine? Otherwise I would be happy to add it to https://gitlab.gnome.org/guidog/phosh-osk-stub/-/merge_requests/34 so we could work from there.

@nsrosenqvist that's certainly possible but eats up valuable screen space. I think completing is the nicer approach but we'll see once this is merged what patches come up to improve the situation 😃 (we have the emoji names in the data already)

@nsrosenqvist you wouldn't have any way to type in that search box as this is an on screen keyboard 😇 I guess what you want is text completion to complete on emojis but that's a separate story (but this MR is a prereq for that).

@dylanvanassche 😍 thanks - there's still lots of rough edges though (that said I'm using it daily to test these more).

if you're on a recent #debian based system you can use `update-alternatives` to switch (will also make sure you have schemas compiled). #pureos will hopefully allow that soon too: https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/librem5-base/-/merge_requests/328 (will also allow to switch to virtboard). If not on Debian "ninja -C _build install" puts the desktop file into /usr/local so it gets picked by default. But beware: lots of things need some time to settle in (e.g. you need recent presage, gtk, ...) so make sure you can recover.

@dylanvanassche I don't think so, it's really a toy project of mine but I sure hope it will help #squeekboard. It builds a library that squeekboard could e.g. use to reuse the emoji widget: https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/Phosh/squeekboard/-/issues/248

There can't be enough emojis 😎 :😃 😹 so I added a new widget (based on #gtk 's emoji chooser) to #phosh's osk-stub:

#librem5 #linuxmobile #mobilelinux

phosh-osk-stub will soon be able to turn on completion opportunistically: When the text-input has the "completion" hint set it's turned on, otherwise it defaults to off. E.g. it's disabled in #chatty's search field but automatically switched on in the chat view :

#phosh #librem5

@dos @mobian @postmarketOS @kop316 It's part of the l5-devscripts package shipped in #pureos. Nothing fancy but I''m using it on a regular basis.

@dos @mobian @postmarketOS @kop316 ...and there's l5-fetch-next to fetch a deb including all currently under review MRs: https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/librem5-dev-tools/-/blob/master/l5-fetch-next which features command completion, custom overrides, grabs the debug packages, etc.

@eliasr @gutenberg_org Added a model for #swedish
(based on August Strindberg: Inferno, also available from project gutenberg), a menu to toggle completion easily and switching the model based on locale: https://gitlab.gnome.org/guidog/phosh-osk-stub/-/merge_requests/39

@xtaran @arturo182 Looks awesome for #linuxmobile.

@marc0x @purism
#phosh's (and #librem5's) mission is (and has been) to allow people to break away from proprietary solutions rightnow™ (not at some point in the future). So they're separate projects but there is the possibility to share more code which hopefully works out.
