lotek-rpc 1.0.1

Simple TCP client impl to interact with the irc bot and build remote plugins.

RPC Module

Installing from PyPi

pip3 install lotek_rpc

Example implementation

import asyncio
import lotek_rpc.api as api


class Impl(api.IrcImpl):
   async def on_message(self, target, by, message):
      print(target, by, message)
      # do some shit like
      if message == 'hack_a_gibson':
         await self.rpc.send_message(target, 'hacking gibson from RPC')
      elif message.startswith('dieplz'):
         await self.rpc.disconnect()
         exit(1)


async def main():
   # endless loop to always try and connect
   while True:
      tcp = api.TcpClient(
         '127.0.0.1',  # use your bots host ip
         12345,
         Impl(),
         cafile='path/to/yourcafile.cert'
      )
      await tcp.connect()
      await tcp.read()


loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
loop.run_until_complete(main())

🚨Important info before starting to implement your own client not using this library🚨

Messages are terminated by a nullbyte 0x00. This means at the end of any message you send, add 0x00 byte. Any message you receive from the server will be ended with 0x00

Info for those who want to implement their own client

Supported Messages you can send from the client

1. Sending a message to a channel or user
   • CLIENT_CMD:SEND_MESSAGE:{"target": "#channel/user", "message": "hello world:"}
2. Telling the server you are disconnecting
   • CLIENT_END:

Supported Message you can receive from the server

1. On message in a channel or from user
   • SERVER_EVENT:ON_MESSAGE:{"target": "#channel/user", "by": "user_who_sent_msg", "message": "hello world"}
2. On RPC Server restarting
   • SERVER_EVENT:RESTARTING
