chromium-browser
--app=https://us02web.zoom.us/wc/join/82466379827?pwd=Z0xERGZib2VqZTlMSjlIY1pXUW80Zz09

Re: start zoom from command line

2020-09-29 Thread Michael Butash via PLUG-discuss
The linux version of the zoom binary playing with mine doesn't seem to like
taking any external input, instead just wanting to launch the the app,
often still running.  None of the recommendations worked for me either.
Either it doesn't exist in linux, or has been removed, but seems absent to
open with external input.  Since the covids has made them "critical
infrastructure", they've been making a lot of changes, not all good, so
wouldn't surprise me if they removed scripting to keep the kiddies from
exploiting them using their own app in zoombombing court cases and school
sessions with pr0n.

I was looking around at how their URI linkage works for zoommtg://
registering, but happened to find this, requires Ruby, but might work for
you with script examples.

https://github.com/benbalter/zoom-launcher

I use gmail, so I just click on the link and it works magically for me,
which is great vs. garbage like M$ Teams and Cisco Webex.  Both behemoths
should hire some of Zoom or Slack folks to make their crappy electron apps
work this good under linux.

Re: start zoom from command line

2020-09-29 Thread Brian Cluff via PLUG-discuss

Have you tried just:
zoom 
"--url=zoommtg://zoom.us/j/94780156957?pwd=SWx1WHNJcjVNUndjV2pxTkNseEQ0UT09" 



The error seems to be saying that it you have the option launch that it 
doesn't want any other arguments, and the instructions don't say 
anything about the option launch.

Thanks.  I tried using the instructions there to connect to the test 
meeting at

Then it put me back at the command prompt.  I looked again at the 
instructions to see if I missed something.  I missed where it said to

You can install a Zoom client.

Re: start zoom from command line

2020-09-28 Thread Jim via PLUG-discuss
I already have the zoom client installed.  I'm looking for whatever I 
would need to enter at the command line to have the zoom client open and 
connect to the meeting in question.  If I had that information, I could 
create a link to an application on the desktop so I could click it then 
zoom would launch and connect to the meeting.


thanks

If you expand the Zoom.us link - the /j/ part to /wc/join/ the meeting
will happen in a limited way in the browser - this would enable
passing a URL directly to a browser at launch from the command line.

Is that what you are looking for?
