iLounge

iLounge is a WIP a native iOS application that lets you connect to your The Lounge instance (self-hosted web IRC client).

  • This is basically my Swift/SwiftUI learning project, so don't expect much except for bugs and bad code.
  • Built using SocketIO and Starscream.

WIP

Currently implemented

  • Connecting to The Lounge (creates new session every login as of right now)
  • Switching channels
  • Setting hostname and port
  • Loading messages for channels (including more history)
  • Sending messages to specific channels
  • Aligning nicknames to specific number of characters
  • Set hostname, port, SSL, username, password
  • Custom timestamp format (or toggle timestamps)
  • Toggle between monospace/sans serif font for messages
  • Clickable links, with in-app previews for URLs that look like images (simple regex JPEG/PNG/etc.)
  • Nickname colors matching the ones in default The Lounge CSS (when Light appearance is set in iOS) and the Morning CSS (Dark appearance)

Limitations/not yet implemented/broken

  • Currently targetting iOS 17 and up (hoping to get this down to iOS 15) (#3)
  • Scrolling is broken and needs some fixing (#2)
  • Sending messages with Enter works, but scrolls the ScrollView arbitrarily (#2)
  • Image/video uploading services
  • Need to escape Markdown coming in from messages (#1)
  • Need to make the Message/Channel/etc. models better and introduce models for other stuff
  • Currently user needs to force websockets or polling to successfully connect
  • Need to fix the networking in general
  • And many more things to be done...
