link2xt f09f8fd8a4 docs: always suggest using --locked with "cargo install"

Otherwise the lockfile is completely ignored
as <https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/commands/cargo-install.html#dealing-with-the-lockfile>
says "By default, the Cargo.lock file that is included with the package will be ignored."

Mostly a reaction to <https://blog.rust-lang.org/2026/08/20/supply-chain-attack-on-arrayref/>

Delta Chat RPC server

This program provides a JSON-RPC 2.0 interface to DeltaChat over standard I/O.

Install

To download binary pre-builds check the releases page. Rename the downloaded binary to deltachat-rpc-server and add it to your PATH.

To install from source run:

cargo install --locked --git https://github.com/chatmail/core/ deltachat-rpc-server

The deltachat-rpc-server executable will be installed into $HOME/.cargo/bin that should be available in your PATH.

Usage

To use just run deltachat-rpc-server command. The accounts folder will be created in the current working directory unless DC_ACCOUNTS_PATH is set:

export DC_ACCOUNTS_PATH=$HOME/delta/
deltachat-rpc-server

The common use case for this program is to create bindings to use Delta Chat core from programming languages other than Rust, for example:

Run deltachat-rpc-server --version to check the version of the server. Run deltachat-rpc-server --openrpc to get OpenRPC specification of the provided JSON-RPC API.
