This way is more compatible to JSON-RPC libraries that do not support receiving notifications from the server and allows describing event types in the OpenRPC specification. Event thread converting events to notifications in the FFI is removed, so it is now possible to construct a dc_jsonrpc_instance_t while still retrieving events via dc_event_emitter_t.
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.
Install it anywhere in your PATH.
Testing
- Build
deltachat-rpc-serverwithcargo build -p deltachat-rpc-server. - Run
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
It is recommended to use IPython, because it supports using await directly
from the REPL.
$ pip install ipython
$ PATH="../target/debug:$PATH" ipython
