link2xt 224355e83a fix: add "setup changed" message for verified key before the message
Merge the code paths for verified and autocrypt key.
If both are changed, only one will be added.

Existing code path adds a message to all chats with the contact
rather than to 1:1 chat. If we later decide that
only 1:1 chat or only verified chats should be notified,
we can add a separate `verified_fingerprint_changed` flag.

Delta Chat RPC python client

RPC client connects to standalone Delta Chat RPC server deltachat-rpc-server and provides asynchronous interface to it.

Getting started

To use Delta Chat RPC client, first build a deltachat-rpc-server with cargo build -p deltachat-rpc-server or download a prebuilt release. Install it anywhere in your PATH.

Create a virtual environment if you don't have one already and activate it.

$ python -m venv env
$ . env/bin/activate

Install deltachat-rpc-client from source:

$ cd deltachat-rpc-client
$ pip install .

Testing

  1. Build deltachat-rpc-server with cargo build -p deltachat-rpc-server.
  2. Run CHATMAIL_DOMAIN=nine.testrun.org PATH="../target/debug:$PATH" tox.

Additional arguments to tox are passed to pytest, e.g. tox -- -s does not capture test output.

Using in REPL

Setup a development environment:

$ tox --devenv env
$ . env/bin/activate
$ python
>>> from deltachat_rpc_client import *
>>> rpc = Rpc()
>>> rpc.start()
>>> dc = DeltaChat(rpc)
>>> system_info = dc.get_system_info()
>>> system_info["level"]
'awesome'
>>> rpc.close()
