I've been working on a JavaScript API for Skype, https://github.com/oskarer/skype-js https://github.com/oskarer/skype-js, utilizing the same endpoints as web.skype.com. Features currently working are login, receive and send messages. I have little time to work on it but it definitely shows potential.
- lukeadams 10y agoThis project sounds interesting! Would you consider reverse engineering the Chrome plugin to add calling? (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/skype-calling/blakpkgjpemejpbmfiglncklihnhjkij https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/skype-calling/blak...) Not sure if the plugin uses native code, but it should be possible to grab the mic / play audio from terminal.
- oskarer 10y agoYeah, I've planned to try this out in NW.js. They have support for the chrome.* API, which is used by the Skype plugin.

- ntauthority 10y agoThe web gateway is somewhat unreliable, and for IM purposes 'useless' compared to the MSNP gateway, which seems to be the main one used by official clients nowadays. It has less documentation, but still is plaintext-over-TLS, unlike the legacy (and, arguably, less reliable as well) supernode protocol the poster has been reverse engineering for the past years.
- skypeopensource 10y agoNice work, before all. Really. My respects.
