Question about access to whispersystems api

[scottslewis]

Howdy,

I'm working on an implementation to signal-cli of the 'add stories capability' issue #1592.

The org.whispersystems.signalservice.api.SignalServiceMessageSender.sendGroupStory method takes an instance of org.whispersystems.signalservice.api.messages.SignalServiceStoryMessage and an instance of org.whispersystems.signalservice.api.messages.SignalServiceStoryMessageRecipient.

These api classes take a number of required and optional values for building/construction, and it's difficult to figure out how to properly construct these objects...in order to use the sendGroupStory method. They aren't used anywhere in signal-cli yet.

If anyone knows of available test or examples (or docs/javadocs) for using this org.whispersystems.signalservice.api, would someone please point me at them. Or, I suppose, a forum for asking this questions monitored by the author(s) of the API.

That API is developed for internal use of the Signal-Android app. There's no docs or examples publicly available and the only usage of the API is in the Signal-Android code.
You can look at how it's used there: https://github.com/search?q=repo%3Asignalapp%2FSignal-Android%20SignalServiceStoryMessage&type=code
