SimpleX Chat client
npm install @reply2future/simplex-chatThis is a TypeScript library that defines WebSocket API client for SimpleX Chat terminal CLI that should be run as a WebSockets server on any port:
``bash`
simplex-chat -p 5225
Client API provides types and functions to:
- create and change user profile (although, in most cases you can do it manually, via SimpleX Chat terminal app).
- create and accept invitations or connect with the contacts.
- create and manage long-term user address, accepting connection requests automatically.
- create, join and manage group.
- send and receive files.
- chat bots: you can implement any logic of connecting with and communicating with SimpleX Chat users. Using chat groups a chat bot can connect SimleX Chat users with each other.
- control of the equipment: e.g. servers or home automation. SimpleX Chat provides secure and authorised connections, so this is more secure than using rest APIs.
Please share your use cases and implementations.
`
npm i simplex-chat
npm run build
See the example of a simple chat bot in squaring-bot.js:
- start simplex-chat as a server on port 5225: simplex-chat -p 5225 -d test_db
- run chatbot:
- connect to chatbot via SimpleX Chat client using the address of the chat bot
Please refer to the available client API in client.ts.
