fix https://github.com/chatmail/core/issues/7863 `test_import_encrypted_bak_into_encrypted_acct` CFFI test fails because it tests that trying to import an encrypted account with a wrong passphrase into an already-encrypted database will fail, but leave the already-encrypted database (esp, leave it with the same password). But in order to reset the database after a failed login attempt, I'm using this code: ```rust context.sql.close().await; fs::remove_file(context.sql.dbfile.as_path()) .await .log_err(context) .ok(); context .sql .open(context, "".to_string()) // <-- NOTE THIS LINE .await .log_err(context) .ok(); ``` We're not remembering the password, so, we can't just pass the correct password there. Since password-protected databases are not really supported anyways, we decided to just skip the test. I also tried two tricks for deleting everything [found on Stackoverflow](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/525512/drop-all-tables-command), but neither of them managed to actually reset the database (i.e. they led to a failed Rust test, because asserting `!context2.is_configured().await?` failed): ```rust context .sql .call_write(|conn| { let mut stmt = conn.prepare( "select 'drop table ' || name || ';' from sqlite_master where type = 'table';", )?; let mut iter = stmt.query(())?; while iter.next()?.is_some() {} Ok(()) }) .await .log_err(context) .ok(); context .sql .run_migrations(context) .await .log_err(context) .ok(); ``` ```rust context .sql .transaction(|t| { t.execute_batch( " PRAGMA writable_schema = 1; delete from sqlite_master where type in ('table', 'index', 'trigger'); PRAGMA writable_schema = 0", )?; Ok(()) }) .await .log_err(context) .ok(); context .sql .run_migrations(context) .await .log_err(context) .ok(); ``` --------- Co-authored-by: l <link2xt@testrun.org>
The chatmail core library implements low-level network and encryption protocols,
integrated by many chat bots and higher level applications,
allowing to securely participate in the globally scaled e-mail server network.
We provide reproducibly-built deltachat-rpc-server static binaries
that offer a stdio-based high-level JSON-RPC API for instant messaging purposes.
The following protocols are handled without requiring API users to know much about them:
-
secure TLS setup with DNS caching and shadowsocks/proxy support
-
safe and interoperable MIME parsing and MIME building.
-
security-audited end-to-end encryption with rPGP and Autocrypt and SecureJoin protocols
-
ephemeral Peer-to-Peer networking using Iroh for multi-device setup and webxdc realtime data.
-
a simulation- and real-world tested P2P group membership protocol without requiring server state.
Installing Rust and Cargo
To download and install the official compiler for the Rust programming language, and the Cargo package manager, run the command in your user environment:
$ curl https://sh.rustup.rs -sSf | sh
On Windows, you may need to also install Perl to be able to compile deltachat-core.
Using the CLI client
Compile and run the command line utility, using cargo:
$ cargo run --locked -p deltachat-repl -- ~/profile-db
where ~/profile-db is the database file. The utility will create it if it does not exist.
Optionally, install deltachat-repl binary with
$ cargo install --locked --path deltachat-repl/
and run as
$ deltachat-repl ~/profile-db

Installing libdeltachat system wide
$ git clone https://github.com/chatmail/core.git
$ cd deltachat-core-rust
$ cmake -B build . -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr
$ cmake --build build
$ sudo cmake --install build
Development
# run tests
$ cargo test --all
# build c-ffi
$ cargo build -p deltachat_ffi --release
Debugging environment variables
-
DCC_MIME_DEBUG: if set outgoing and incoming message will be printed -
RUST_LOG=async_imap=trace,async_smtp=trace: enable IMAP and SMTP tracing in addition to info messages.
Expensive tests
Some tests are expensive and marked with #[ignore], to run these
use the --ignored argument to the test binary (not to cargo itself):
$ cargo test -- --ignored
Fuzzing
Install cargo-bolero with
$ cargo install cargo-bolero
Run fuzzing tests with
$ cd fuzz
$ cargo bolero test fuzz_mailparse -s NONE
Corpus is created at fuzz/fuzz_targets/corpus,
you can add initial inputs there.
For fuzz_mailparse target corpus can be populated with
../test-data/message/*.eml.
Features
vendored: When using Openssl for TLS, this bundles a vendored version.
Update Provider Data
To add the updates from the
provider-db to the core,
check line REV= inside ./scripts/update-provider-database.sh
and then run the script.
Language bindings and frontend projects
Language bindings are available for:
- C [📂 source | 📚 docs]
- -> libdeltachat is going to be deprecated and only exists because Android, iOS and Ubuntu Touch are still using it. If you build a new project, then please use the jsonrpc api instead.
- JS: [📂 source | 📦 npm | 📚 docs]
- Python [📂 source | 📦 pypi | 📚 docs]
- Go [📂 source]
- Java and Swift (contained in the Android/iOS repos)
The following "frontend" projects make use of the Rust-library or its language bindings:
