- [x] figgure out how to build the packages (that it installs native
optional package automatically)
- [X] Make the gluecode
- [x] expose both the lowerlevel api that desktop uses (~~send objects
and receive objects~~, getting path of rpc-server is enough)
- [X] and the higher level api needed for bots (jsonrpc client)
- [X] typescript types
- [x] automatically pick the right binary from npm or allow getting it
from env var, or give out an error (throw error)
- [x] find out how to dev locally (use local built core in dc desktop) -
there is the question of how to link the typescript client and the task
to add a search in the cargo target folder for a debug build or a
different way, find out some good flow that we can use and document for
dc desktop + locally built core development
- [x] build the packages in ci
- [x] fix that deltachat-rpc-server is not executable
postponed:
- [ ] publish from ci
- [ ] add key/token to deploy to npm
Closes#4694

We update version in several .toml and .json files
on every release anyway, so updating pyproject.toml is easy.
setuptools_scm makes it more difficult to build
python packages for software distributions
because it requires full git checkout
with tags rather than just a worktree.
It is also possible to remove or move tags
after the release, so git revision no longer
pins python package version if setuptools_scm is used.
To preview the docs, run:
```
scripts/build-python-docs.sh
firefox dist/html/index.html
```
I have removed the Makefile because modern Sphinx Makefile is just a
wrapper for `sphinx-build -M`:
3596590317/sphinx/templates/quickstart/Makefile.new_t
and sphinx-quickstart even has an option `--no-makefile`.
`make.bat` makes even less sense.
In `scripts/build-python-docs.sh` I use `sphinx-build` directly
without `make` wrapper.
