Presage

A Rust library that helps building clients for the Signal Messenger, using libsignal-service-rs. It is designed to provide everything you need to get started.

⚠️ The API is considered unstable - I am still experimenting here.

Features:

• Configuration and secrets storage (using sled)
  • Local encryption
• Registration
  • SMS
  • Voice call
• Link as secondary device from Android / iOS app (like Signal Desktop)
• Synchronize contacts from primary device
• Receive messages
• Download + decrypt attachments
• Send messages
• Groups support

Instructions

Included in this repository is a CLI very similar (on purpose) to the great signal-cli:

# print help section
cargo run --example=cli -- --help

# link as secondary device, a PNG with a QR code to scan should open
cargo run --example=cli -- link-device --device-name presage

# start receiving messages
cargo run --example=cli -- receive

For usage of the library, a few examples are included under the examples/ directory, and most features are demonstrated in examples/cli.rs.
