Card messages not rendering

[AlpaGit]

Hi, I got this error when I try to run:
raise SSLError(e, request=request)
requests.exceptions.SSLError: hostname 'login.live.com' doesn't match u'gateway.
login.live.com'

Your version of OpenSSL is probably missing subject alt name support -- see this Requests FAQ.

Thanks, I fix it.

Can you help me for create a Skype Cards ?

[Terrance]

Until there's a proper way to send message objects, you can try shoehorning it into sendRaw():

msg = SkypeCardMsg(title="A card!", body="Some accompanying text.",
                   buttons=[SkypeCardMsg.Button(title="Make a test call",
                                                type="call", value="echo123")])
sk.chats[...].sendRaw(content=msg.html, contenttype="text", messagetype="RichText/Media_Card")

It may require some tinkering with the content/message type fields, looks like some of the clients have stricter requirements than others (Android seems fairly liberal and should render the above).

Firsty thanks for you fast reply,
But I got a error "TypeError: Object of type 'Tag' is not JSON serializable" when I try to run your code

[Terrance]

Err, try str(msg.html) instead?

(Not in a position to test right now, but the html field is actually a bs4 tag, unlike what the docs say...)

[AlpaGit]

Nice, it works, thanks for your help

I think it's not possible to make it work on Skype Web or Windows Client, but work correctly on Android
I try everythink without success, too bad.

[Terrance]

I've yet to get the Windows client to render any. I have one that renders on Skype for Web, somehow copied straight from the Skype Support Bot's response but I'm unsure how I got it to work... 😞

(Interestingly, call actions are hidden on Skype for Web, but visible + disabled on Android.)

[AlpaGit]

It works oddly, i'm still searching how to get it work on Windows client, when I try on Web I got:
"Unknown message type "RichText/Media_Card", and I see that their is some fields that you don't take in consideration like "recipient { id, name }" and "timestamp"

[Terrance]

Timestamp is currently unimplemented, but can be done provided we either add a (redundant?) second time field, or be dynamic when reading the html property.

The recipient is an interesting one, no idea what it should be in a group conversation given the only cards I've seen are in one-to-ones with the support bot -- maybe the group's thread ID, 19:[email protected]?

[Terrance]

Latest commit adds the missing fields, does that have any effect on the message showing in other clients?

[AlpaGit]

Hi, sorry for the long time, It still doesn't work :/

[Terrance]

I think this is ultimately down to some client-side check we're tripping in some of the clients -- they likely all perform their own (different) tests for the message being valid, which may well be restricting the sender.

I've successfully rendered cards in Skype for Android (stable and preview releases) and Skype for Windows (UWP on Windows 10), but not Skype for Desktop (Windows) or Skype for Web¹.

¹ Apart from when I somehow copied a message from the Skype Support bot, but now I can't seem to reproduce that. 😞
