|

|

This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.
|
||||
|
||||
## Build Commands
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Setup build directory (first time)
|
||||
meson setup builddir
|
||||
|
||||
# Build project
|
||||
meson compile -C builddir
|
||||
|
||||
# Clean rebuild
|
||||
rm -rf builddir && meson setup builddir && meson compile -C builddir
|
||||
|
||||
# Run the application
|
||||
./builddir/src/kordophone
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Architecture Overview
|
||||
|
||||
Kordophone is a GTK4/Libadwaita messaging client written in Vala that acts as a frontend to a separate DBus daemon (`kordophonecd`). The application follows a clean separation of concerns:
|
||||
|
||||
### Core Architecture
|
||||
- **DBus Client**: This GTK app connects to `net.buzzert.kordophonecd` daemon over DBus
|
||||
- **Split UI**: Main window has conversation list sidebar + transcript view
|
||||
- **Custom Rendering**: Transcript uses Gtk.DrawingArea with snapshot API for performance
|
||||
- **Repository Pattern**: All data operations go through `Repository` singleton which proxies to DBus service
|
||||
|
||||
### Key Components
|
||||
- **Application** (`src/application/`): App lifecycle, main window, preferences
|
||||
- **Service** (`src/service/`): DBus integration, data repository, settings management
|
||||
- **Conversation List** (`src/conversation-list/`): Sidebar with conversation list and search
|
||||
- **Transcript** (`src/transcript/`): Message display with pluggable bubble layouts
|
||||
- **Models** (`src/models/`): Data structures (Conversation, Message, Attachment)
|
||||
|
||||
### DBus Interface
|
||||
The app depends on a running `kordophonecd` daemon that provides:
|
||||
- **Repository interface**: Conversation/message CRUD, real-time sync via signals
|
||||
- **Settings interface**: Server configuration, user credentials
|
||||
|
||||
### Development Notes
|
||||
- Vala compiles to C, build artifacts in `builddir/`
|
||||
- DBus interfaces auto-generated from XML: run `src/service/interface/generate.sh`
|
||||
- Resources bundled via GResource (`src/resources/kordophone.gresource.xml`)
|
||||
- Custom CSS styling in `src/resources/style.css`
|
||||
- Application ID: `net.buzzert.kordophone2`
|
||||
|
||||
### Message Layout System
|
||||
Transcript view uses a pluggable layout system in `src/transcript/layouts/`:
|
||||
- `BubbleLayout`: Base class for message bubbles
|
||||
- `TextBubbleLayout`: Text messages
|
||||
- `ImageBubbleLayout`: Image attachments
|
||||
- `DateItemLayout`: Date separators
|
||||
- `SenderAnnotationLayout`: Sender labels
|
||||
|
||||
All layouts render to Cairo context via Gtk snapshot API for efficient scrolling performance.
